Taylor Ducks Take Quick Lead
To Hand Hutto First Loss. 57-49
Hutto’s for
The Taylor Ducks gave
Hippos their first defeat of the
basketball season Tuesday night,
57-49, and upped their own rec-
ord to two wins and three losses.
The Ducks tdok a quick lead
and never relinquished it, al-
though the Hippos came out
strong at the half and made a
battle out of the game that had
looked like a Taylor runaway in
the first two quarters.
Edward Goetz and Darrell Mott
both had good nights from the
field hitting 22 and 20 points
apiece. Danny Peterson was the
big noise for the home standing
Hippos and he got 20 points—
most of them long outside shots.
The Ducks jumped out to a 7-
0 lead with Goetz and Mott alter-
nating at the basket before Pat-
terson hit his first field goal
with 3:20 remaining in the first
quarter. Bubba Barnes made a
charity toss and Goetz and Mott
each got a free throw before
Terry Priest’s field goal made
the score 9-5. Barnes added a
free throw and a field goal from
the corner to the Hippos’ score,
and Goetz got a tip in to go
with Mott’s free throw for the
14-8 score at the buzzer.
The first fiv? minutes of the
second quarter were profitable
Taylor Girls Lose
Two lo Rockdale
Rockdale’s girls basketball
team Monday night swept a pair
of games from the Taylor girls.
Rockdale won the A team game
by a 45-14 score and the B team
game by a 38-17 score.
Sherry Sefcik took scoring hon-
ors for the Taylor girls with 8
points while Kathy Groba turned
in the same performance in the
B team game to lead the Tay-
lor scoring.
the Ducks as Doug Zellmer
and Douglas Ruthven joined Mott
and Goetz in the scoring spree
that enabled Taylor to get a 13
point, 24-11 lead. But then the
Ducks got shut out for over
three minutes while Kurt John-
son and Peterson were combining
to pull the Hippos within seven
points, 24-17. Just three seconds
remained in the half when Mott
hit a layup for added Taylor in-
surance, 26-17.
The Ducks needed every, point
too, for after shooting only 22
per cent from the field in the
first half, the Hippos came out
hot and hit 52 per cent in the
last two quarters. While Peter-
son had carried them in the first
half, the entire lineup got into
the scorer’s box in the second
half.
Charles Nygrin took the tip for
two quick points and Peterson
showed he was still going to hit
by dropping in a bucket that whit-
tled the lead to 26-21. Goetz
made a free throw and Billy
Davis made a dive good for a
layup that pulled Taylor out
again. Late in the quarter,
Barnes’ field goal from the side
narrowed the lead to three points,
35-32; and Goetz had to go to
work for two baskets that offset
Johnson’s field goal and Nygrin’s
free throw.
Taylor had a five point lead
going into the final eight minutes
but the scrappy Hippos kept it
down to 3 points for the first
part of the quarter. Then with
just over four minutes remaining
in the game, Peterson made a
field goal and it was 45-42. Mott
and Zellmer started a barrage
from the free throw line that
gave Zellmer 5 out of 6 and
upped Mott to a perfect 4 for 4.
When Mott kicked over to Jim-
my Kind for a layup shot, the
Ducks had hustled to a 52-42
lead, and although Hutto got it

down to 52-45, Zellmer’s charity
tossing kept the Ducks in a com-
fortable position. Taylor control-
led the ball the last two minutes
to force the Hippos to foul in
an effort to get possession and
the Ducks made the most of their
opportunities.
Taylor got some scoring from
six of the ten players who saw
action while the Hippos had a
well balanced score sheet. The
Ducks counted 21 goals from the
field to 20 for the heme team and
outscored their hosts from the
foul line 15 to 9. Taylor counted
15 of 22 charity tosses while
Hutto canned 9 of 15.
This was a season scoring
high for Taylor with their pre-
vious high total being 44 against
Huntsville.
The Hutto B team salvaged
a split for the night as they
dumped the Duck Bees 51-23.
Enizy Boehm and Kenneth Ja-
cobson led the Hutto charge with
11 and 10 points respectively. Rod-
ney Kind and Ervin Isensee
were high for Taylor with 6 and
5 points.
Next game for Taylor is with
the Kyle Panthers in the Kyle
Gym.

AFL Club Owners
Unperturbed Over
Financial losses
DALLAS, Tex. (.4*) — American
Football League owners are un-
perturbed by heavy financial
losses, feel the infant loop has
rosy prospects and expect to do
even better landing college stars.
Commissioner Joe Foss nvoiced
this optimistic outlook Tuesday
after an AFL Executive Commit-
tee session on the heels of the
pro league’s second annual draft.
“The future of the league was
discussed at length for the past
two days,” Foss said, “and there
is strong agreement that the
American Football League is on
the way to becoming one of the
finest sports attractions in the
country.”
Among other things, the league
leaders decided Eastern and
Western division winners will
meet Jan. 1 for the AFL cham-
pionship.
Clubs in the AFL, which start-
ed operating this season in a
sharp rivalry with the older Na-
tional Football League, represent
Boston, Buffalo, Dallas, Denver,
Houston, Los Angeles, New York
and Oakland.
Spokesmen report all eight fran-
chises are on solid footing and
feel the new league “has ad-
vanced far beyond even the most
optimistic predictions,” Foss said.

kl Expansion Hears Reality
ST. LOUIS, Mo. ® — Despite O’Malley
last minute snags, the American
League’s six-week struggle to
complete its expansion program
for 1961 was expected to reach
fulfillment today with a new team
in Lcs Angeles.
Walter O’Malley, the National
League’s leader in the bitter ter-
ritorial dispute with the Ameri-
can League, ended his opposition
to another team in Los Angeles
with a surprise peace proposal
Tuesday.
The owner of the Los Angeles
Dodgers agreed to allow the new
franchise holders—Bob Reynolds
and actor Gene Autry—to operate
in his territory next year provid-
ed they meet certain conditions.
All but two were acceptable.
The disagreement revolves
around O’Malley’s insistence that
the new team, which will be
known as the Angels, agree to
play in' the 20,500-seat Wrigley
Field the first two years. Then he
wants them to sign a three-year
lease on Chavez Ravine, the park
being built for the Dodgers, with
O’Malley cutting in on the radio-
TV income.
The new Los Amgeles owners
refused to be bound by such an
agreement. They want to play
only one year in Wrigley Field,
then feel free to play anywhre
they like if Chavez Ravine isn’t
ready.
Reynolds and Autry and their
group are opposed to giving
a cut of their television
and radio income.
Reynolds and O’Malley, each
supported by club owners, con-
ferred into the early hours in an
effort to settle disputed points.
“They’re making a great deal
of headway,” an American
League owner said. “Each real-
izes he has to give a little and
take a little.”
Before going into his post-mid
night session with O’Malley, Rey-
nolds told a news conference he
was confident his club would be
In Los Angeles next year.
“I don’t expect too much dif
ficulty in coming to an agreement
with Mr. O’Malley,” said the 46-
year-cid former Stanford Univer-
sity football star.
Haney talked with Red Schoen-
dienst and Del Rice and indicated
they would be hired as active
players. Schoendienst, 37-year-old
second baseman, received his un-
conditional release from the Mil-
vaukee Braves at the close of
last season. Rice, a 38-year-cld
catcher, finished out the 1960
campaign with Baltimore.'
Autry, who will be on the club’s
beard cf directors, said he had
sounded out Casey Stengel as
manager last week.
