Climax tumbled after climax, and supreme efforts were outdone by even more effort.First Hyndman got itself off the hook with a last-second shot to defeat Southern Fulton. Then Berlin’s, rush was cut short by; a determined Northern Bedford team...• - Then, all day Saturday at Penn State, witling wrote some of its finest pages as schoolboys outdid themselves in some tremendous competition.Of 12 final matches for state championships, four were determined in the waning seconds! By my recollection, they turned at 24 seconds, twice at 7 seconds, and once in two seconds. Two state champions fell, and one boy from Greenville built an impressive lead — and then was suddenly and irrevocably flat on his back, a runner-up.FERNDALE 66Waener ...................Polak ;....... .....9Wissinger ...... 3Mock ..............................5Paluchak ......................2Tomovik ...... 5Team Totals ............27Everybody’s hero, and a wonderful example of the; kind of determination wrestling coaches talk about, was Gary DiDo-meninco of Tyrone.

For that side of it, the move could be a big step forward in human relations. Little else recommends it.)But the biggest potential news of all is brewing in California, where Don Drysdale and Sandy Koufax sit idly waiting for Buz-zy Bavasi to give them contracts amounting to a million potatoes in three years (that’s $168,000 per man per year).Walter O’Malley, who made a fortune by taking the Dodgers to Los Angeles, refuses to come close to what they’re asking. He won’t deal with them as a pair. Walter says he won’t up the ante for the team as a whole, and that means you either don’t give it to them or cut everyone else. A magnificent outlook for a world champ.Walter has succeeded Branch Rickey as the skinflint of baseball. He inherited the treadmill school of player production — the Vero Beach factory.Unfortunately for Walter, he’s got 22 competent ballplayers plus Wilis, Drysdale and. Koufax, Without them, he will finish deep in the standings. Wills got $80,000. Koufax is the biggest asset, but Drysdale pinch-hits to add to his value. Between them, they won half the team’s games. Wills won most of the rest.When Koufax pitches. .. more people come to watch. When a team wins, more come to watch. And park. And eat. And buy souvenirs. Walter makes money on all those things.An article in: the Sunday paper I read worried about the implications of having two players unite in bargaining. It forecast the day when whole infields, or whole teams; might bargain col-.lectively. Koufax and Drysdale might do it, because their value overshadows the whole team, but Jones and Smith won’t doit.,The other'side of the coin is that Koufax, particularly,- never did need the money, add needs it less now. Drysdale is no doubt adequately, fljjed, too.They could, both jo all,, the way, if Walter does, and go into an enforced retirement — going out at th£ top. TJhey were magnificent in. the Senes and all season. They would fee . remembered, with awe. , •Together# they .ri^ke ,a.A- lq,tmore for Walter than they ever get to see. But baseball is a funny game. You take .what the boss hands out ..or you don’t, You can’t go across the street to get a better deal.Baseball’s owners have written the tune for many a year. The players have danced. They have watched as raw high school kids« got big bonuses.There may never have been a pitching duo: as valuable to a team as Don and Sandy. Aren’t they entitled to a bigger share of the barrels, of cash Walter takes home?All the pious nonsensing about double-teaming, legal-eagling or holding out won’t change it much.

For B CrownBy Ned FrearNorthern Bedford, still coming like gangbusters, shocked Berlin, 46-42 Friday at Bedford to win the class B district championship — and they did it the hard way, battling back a furious rush in the last two minutes to beat the team that beat them last year.The Panthers fashioned a ten-point lead early in the third neriod by playing smart basketball and running hard, But they, needed all their gumption in the fourth, when it swiftlv evaporated in the pressure arid pandemonium of the Mountierush.: With .0 minutes left, thev had a 14-ooint lead, but scored only one point until it was 43-42 with 1:25 left;Things looked grim.
