late Athletic Association haa
district 8 basketball tournament to Sacramento State. The regional
playoff*, are scheduled for Hsrch 9-10.
Both Sacramento State sad Freano are definite entries ln the four
team classic. George Zlegenfuss, chairman ot the west region NCAA,
says that Pacific Lutheran from Washington and either Chapman or
Cal Poly (Pomona) are likely candidates for tbe remaining spots.
Athletic director Hal Beatty gave several reasons tor Sacramento
hosting tho event Instead of Fresno. 1. The Sacramento gym haa a
J700 seating capacity while Fresno's gym seats only 22.00. 2. Fresno
held the tournament two years ago. 3. The Far Western Conference,
of which Sacramento Is a member, has been ln the tournament for
three years and has yet to host lt
No Seniors This Time
So the Bulldogs will take to the road without their three ineligible
seniors. Hike McFerson, George Sarantos and Earl Smith.
Coach Harry Miller, who certainly would have liked the home court
advantage. Is looking forward to tbe event.
"I want to see Just how well we can do," 'said Miller. "Having two
weeks before the tournament should prove a definite aid ln getting
the team ready. Eddie Green and Chuck Noel have a big job facing
them — filling the shoes of two of Fresno State Colleges 'greatest
bssketbsll stars, McFerson and Sarantos. Jocobson will be handed the
spark-plug Job, setting up plays and bring-up the team.
Miller may get some help from JV star Vern Tevrlx. "Tevrls hustles
"all the time," reported Miller.
Competition Very Stiff
Competition ln the tourney can be rated no less than "very stiff."
While Fresno pounced on Sacramento State early tn the season, 73-56,
the Hornets playing on their own ground two weeks later, ripped Fres¬
no 86-78.
Pacific Lutheran, a likely suspect tor the tourney, has already
bumped off Saint Marys, one of the top "big college" teams on the
west coast.
Cal Poly (Pomona) lost to Sacramento by a slim point ln the finals
of the Camella Bowl Tournament-
Chaptnan has accumulated one or the finest records on the coast
but In their last outing were upset by San Fernando Valley State. The
Bulldogs walloped San Fernando only one night before, 10S-59.
KIDDIES RUN RAMPANT—This was only a mild scene from th*
dishonorable halflime performance last Saturday night.
Kiddies Run Rampant
At Basketball Games
Frankly. I am surprised- that the Fresno Stoto College Athletic
Department would allow such "shlnanlgans" ss those that prevailed
at Saturday night's halftlme Intermission.
What kind of Intelligence does It take to let 33 "little ruffians"
'lid on your basketball floor, many of them scratching tho court with
tieir street shoes.
The parents should be spanked as well. The display which resembled
Hog from wrestling lo football, showed poor upbringing. The kids
n't even willing to leave the court when the teams returned for
e second half. They had to be led off the floor by their den mother
r shouted at by on* Of the fans.
Two weeks ago, Fresno scheduled a truely great halftlme exhibition.
Tbe McLsue High School drill team dased a near capacity crowd tbat
night with some spectacular precision maneuvers.
There was nothing spectacular about tbe halftlme show Saturday
night- It was a poor and pitiful display, a terrible representation for
the college. '—Terry Cress

Tour Horsemen' Give Warmerdam
High Hopes For '62 Track Season
By Rich Krikava
's that time of year again
when the dust Is blowln' oft the
n jewel stop watch, and to
put the old shoe string that lt
hangs on around the nock snd to
give lt a couple of punches to be
sure It still ticks oft tbe seconds.
This  Is   the  season   when   oue
es the lanky,  bare legged  dls-
nce runner Jog around the oval,
and when sprinters are seen ham¬
mering the starting blocks at one
end of (he strsight-a-way.
Second Year At Helm
In his second year at the helm,
the "Dutchman," coach Cornelius
Warmerdam, has come up with "a
mighty potent group of runners
called the "Four Horsemen," a
hard running breed composed of
Bill Knocke, Jerry Holland, Du¬
nne Reldenbach and Hugh Adams.
These men wilt carry the load
In the 100. 220, 440. 880, mile,
low hurdles, high hurdles, 400
meter hurdles and broad Jump.
And that's a pretty big load!
Other big things are being ex¬
pected from pole vaulter Don
Shaefer, who Is confident of
cracking the 15 root barter; and
from Mervln Anderson who Is
pushing toward the 200 foot mark
In the Javelin.
Knocke Is Fastest
Knocke will lead runners In
all the "quick" races including
the 100, 220 and 440. Holland Is
slated for the S80 and mile. The
440, high and low hurdles, and
the 400 meter hurdles are sched¬
uled for a strong legged Mt. San
Antonio transfer named Relden¬
bach. Adams will handle thi
broad Jump, the low hurdles, cen¬
tury and the 400 meter hurdles.
Sayl That's the third time the
400 meter hurdles has been men¬
tioned!  "'
The truth or the matter Is, War¬
merdam has two potential nation¬
al contenders In the event In Ad¬
ams and  Reldenbach. Tneso two
finds" will be tested Mar. 10 ln
the Cat Poly all-comers meet. I
The broad shoulders of Brad
Holmes will carry most or the
load for the Bulldogs in the
weights. He will doublo In the
shot and discus. Backing up
Holmes In the discus are Ander-
n and Jim Thleson.
Pole Vaulters
Frank ' Pollock and wrestler
Neal Yoshlda will play second
fiddle to Shaeffer In the polo
ault and Jon Anabo and Ben
Tapscoit will do the high jump¬
ing to round out the headliners
In the field events.
The dark horse on the squad
Is sprinter Gsry Potter. When he
gets tuned-up he might push
Knocke for the number one spot
In the 100 sad 2Z0. Potter Is a
Reedley College transfer.
Distance Men
Another middle distance run¬
ner is Dennis Monypeny.
Holland, who leads the dis¬
tance men. Is supported strongly
by half miler Eugene Manet te,
up from tho junior vanity squad,
and rollers Ken Kemmerer, Spike
Slggers and Rick Dahlgren,
