ly The As-ociated Press
0 CINCINNATI - The Cincinnati Enquirer reported that Bob
Cousy, new head coach of the Royals of the National Basketball As-
sociation, has asked to return as an active player.
Cousy, former star of the Boston Celtics, retired in 1963. The
Enquirer said the Royals have asked Walter Kennedy, NBA president.
to intercede with Celtics General Manager Rd Auerbach to release
Cousy from the Celtics voluntary retired list.
Kennedy suggested the matter was best negotiated between the
two clubs, the Enquirer said, and the Royals are awaiting an answer.
If approved Cousy, at 41, would be the oldest player ever in the NBA.
Cousy coached at Boston College until last year, when he resigned
to coach the Royals. He had no comment on the story.

BOSTON A-John Havlicek of1
the National Basketball Associa-
tion champion Boston Celtics has
been offered a million dollar,
multi-year deal to jump to the
rival American Basketball Asso-
ciation, the Boston Globe report-I
ed yesterday.
The 29-year-old all-around star!
could not immediately be reached
for comment. He was reported en
route from Ohio to Boston by car.
Robert G. Woolf, attorney for

Havlicek and several other sports
personalities, was reached by the
Globe in Portland, Maine, and
confirmed that discussions had
been held with the ABA. He would
not discuss figures.
Woolf said that Celtics General
Manager Red Auerbach had been
informed of the talks.
Havlicek played the second year
of a two-year contract last season
for an estimated $50,000. He is
due for a substantial increase
this year in negotiations with the
Celtics which are currently in
progress.
The Globe said the ABA is be-
lieved to have made an offer that
would triple the former Ohio State
star's salary plus giving him
stocks and other benefits.

The Redskins were ranked
fourth nationally in team de-
fense last year but have lost five
regulars. However, Miami's de-
fense, led by All-MAC's Merv Nu-
gent and Jim Scott at ends and
Larry Draper at middle g u a r d.
has promising sophomores who
should fill the holes.
The offense should improve over

Thompson returns for his third
varsity year along with most of
his backfield. All-American pros-
pect Gary Arthur at tight-end

Bowling Green could be an out-
side threat as the Falcons h a v e
returning lettermen at all posi-
tions as well as the bulk of last
year's defensive squad, the tenth
stingiest in college football.
The Falcons will be hurt how-
ever, by the decimation through
graduation of its highly touted de-
fensive backfield of last year. Vern
Wireman at quarterback, who
camne on strong as a replacement
last year should do an adequate
job piloting this year's offense.

Lauterbur will be putting together

field. The Toledo defense improv-
