OMAHA (IP) - Arizona State
clinched its claim to the 1-966
NCAA title of college baseball
champion Sunday after a shaky
semi-finals, with a 11-2 trouncing
of the Houston Cougars.
The Sun Devils had dropped
their only series game to Houston
on Friday, 3-0. Wildness by the
Cougar pitchers and six Houston
errors were the decisive edge Ari-
zona State needed.
The Sun Devils scored three
runs in the first as the entire
batting order went to the plate.,
Four men were walked by Hous-
ton pitchers in the opening frame.
Tom Burgess went the distance
for State and struck out 15, a
record for a College World Series
championship game.
Arizona State carried a 4-1 rec-
ord into the final. They' beat
Stanford twice and defeated both
Oklahoma State and Boston
College.
Houston dropped its opening
round game to Stanford 12-1, then
came back to win aaginst Ohio
State, Boston College and Arizona
before drawing a bye into the
final of the round-robin tourna-
ment.
Ron Davini, fiery little catcher
for Arizona State, was dumb-
founded when told he had been
voted most outstanding player of

the World Series Sunday night.
"I can't talk, except to say
several other guys deserved it
more," stammered the 19-year-old
sophomore from Anaheim, Calif,
The award was a tribute to
Davini's .409 Series hitting and
superb fielding. His uniform is
always the first to get dirty. His
teammates call him "pig pen."
He's so excitable, Coach Bobby
Winkles had him write 'relax"
in big letters on the back of his
catcher's mitt.
He was so worked up about the
title game he didn't eat. He ex-
plained, "I just forgot to eat
supper."
A second NCAA baseball crown'
in three years is a tribute to the
coaching and recruiting zeal of
Winkles, a 37-year-old former
White Sox infielder from Swifton,
Ark.
"We've played 15 one-run games
this year and won 13," Winkles
said after his clubs 4-3 victory
over Stanford in 14 innings Satur-
day night. "This speaks well for
sophomores."
Gary Gentry of Arizona and
Stanford's Rod Poteete went all
14 innings and Reid's double won
it. It was an errorless game filled
with top plays, and ended the
coaching career of Stanford's re-
tiring Dutch Fehring.

PROVO, Utah (A) - Southern
California is collegiate track and
field king once more, and the
reign may be a long one.
That was obvious after the Tro-
joke of the team -competition in
competition in the 46th annual
NCAA track and field meet at
Brigham Young University Satur-
day night.
As 19,500 watched, Southern
California broke the world 440-
yard relay record with three soph-
omores and a junior, swept the
top two places in the pole vault
with two sophomores, and rolled
up 86 points with surprising ease.
Oregon was a distant second
with 40 points and defending
champion UCLA was third with
27.
Sophomore pole vaulters Bob
Seagren and Paul Wilson put on
an exciting show as both tried to
clear the world record height of
17-8. Seagren has the pending
mark of 17-7, set only a few days
before the meet.
Big Randy Matson of Texas
A&M won the shot and discus
titles for the second straight year,
then said he would give up the
discus next year. "I'm a shot put-
ter," he said.
The other double winner, Gerry
Lindgren of Washington State,
said he was tired after the three
mile run Saturday night. He won
the six-mile Thursday.
Tommie Smith of San Jose
State. who won the 220 in 20.2,
said he was unhappy with the
time.--even though just a shade
off his world record of 20 seconds
flat.
Jim Ryun of Kansas,, world
record-holder in the mile, said
the slow pace wiped out the pos-
sibility of a sub-four minute mile.
He sprinted the final lap in 52.5
and won in 4:03.5.
Eight meet records were broken,
one world record shattered and
another tied.

The world record tied- was the
100-yard dash mark of 9.1 seconds
by Charlie Greene of Nebraska in
an elimination heat. He won the
final in 9.2,
PROVO, Utah (2) - Jim Ryun,
Kansas University miler and half
miler, was announced winner of
the Brian Sternberg track award
Saturday night by NCAA officials.
Ryun was cited for his courage
and performance in track last
year.
Sternberg, a former pole vaulter
from Washington State, was one
of themworld's best in 1963 when
a trampoline accident paralyzedj
him.
Other winners were Sternberg,
Mike Larabee and Gerry Lindgreh.
Lutz Claimrs
CARBONDALE, Ill. (P-Power-
ful Bob Lutz of the University of
Southern - California turned back
a challenge by Jaime Fillol of the
University of Miami and won the
National Collegiate tennis singles
championship 6-0, 6-0, 8-10, 2-6,
6-2.
Fillol, who injured his leg while
exercising Friday, didn't win a
game as Lutz swept the first two
sets.
The stocky sophomore with the
big backcourt game out in front
with booming backhand and pass-
ing shots Fillol was unable to
touch.
Fillol, a junior from Santiago,
Chile, passed up a chance to rep-
resent Chile in the Davis Cup zone
competition last week. USC won
the team championship Saturday
night.

HOUSTON (AP) - Mohammad
Ali, singing, joking and preach-
ing as he waited, went on trail
yesterday on charges of refusing
to be inducted into the Armed
Forces. Attorneys settled on an
all-white jury of six men and six
women.
The case had prevented the
start of selection of a jury until
midafternoon after the heavy-
weight champion had spent most
of the day roaming the Federal
Court corridors chatting, joking
and preaching.
Ali finally entered the court-
room at 3:40., EDT after 84 pros-
pective juors remaining from an
original pool of 150 had been as-
sembled before Judge Joe Ing-
raham.
Ingraham had introduced the
case as "The U.S. government vs.
Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr." and
read the brief indictment that was
returned 10 days after Ali refused
to accept induction that was re-
turned 10 days after All refused
to accept induction April 28.
The judge then asked if any-
one knew Clay personally. As Ali
stood facing the jury panel, his
New York City attorney, Hayden
Covington, said, "If you please,
your honor, he is also known by
his Muslim name, Muhammad
Ali."
"Do any of you know him per-
sonally by.his, Muslim name, Mu-
hammad Ali?" the judge then ask-
ed.
No one responded.c

Ingraham then asked a series
of questions that included whether
anyone had any religious beliefs
that might cause them to lean one
way or another. Again there was
no response.
The procedure ror questioning
was changed abruptly, however,
after the defense began question-
ing 12 prospects who had relatives
in the Armed service.
Quinnan Hodges, a Houston at-
torney, asked Earl Ashley of
Houston, who has a son in the
Air Force and a nephew in Viet-
nam, if this would influence him
in any way.
"Well, I think he's guilty my-
self," Ashley said.
Ingraham asked Ashley to re-
turn to his seat. He then had all
attorneys confer with him at the
bench.
After the conference, Ingraham
said to the prospective jurors,
"There was a statement made by
juror No. 11. You may have heard
or may not, I ask if anyone was
influenced and if so please rise,"
Again no one responded.
The attorneys then began ques-
tioning each juror in front of the
bench, out of hearing range of
the other members of the panel.
The entire jury panel had spent
the morning in another court
room where another case was get-
ting under way.
A single jury pool had been
summoned for the two cases. The
case of a man being tried on a

heroin smuggling charge had
priority so jurors for that trial,
in which well-know Houston law-
yer Percy Foreman headed the de-
fense, were sellected first.
In the hallway, Ali grabbed
Foreman by the arm and called
to Covington: "Hayden, Hayden,
you're fired. I've got me a law-
yer."
Covington, who predicted the
trial would last a maximum of
two days, was expected to center
his case around two points:
* That Ali is draft exempt as
a Black Muslim minister called
Muhammad Ali.,
" And that Ali and other Neg-
roes are systematically discrimin-
ated against by the nation's draft
boards, which Covington will arg-
ue are unfairly loaded with whites.
The charges grew out of All's
refusal April 28 to: take the tra-
ditional one step forward that
would have constituted his in-
duction into the. Army. He has
been free on $5,000 bond since a
federal grand jury indicated him
10 days later.
When he declined induction,
the World Boxing Association and
the New York State Athletic Com-
mission stripped him of his box-
ing crown which he earned during
an undefeated professional ca-
reer, beating 29 opponents, 23 by
knockouts. He is still recognized
as the champ in some areas of
the world.
