captured his second consecutive
1600-meter freestyle in the opening

ference swimming meet last night
in Houston.
Okamoto, the Sao Paulo, Brazil,
junior, finished just ahead of the
Krebs Battles Chamberlain
Win NCAA Regional Tonite
DALLAS, — The Western Reg-,
ional, with more top ranking
teams than any of the sectional
NCAA basketball play-offs, goes
on here tonight with interest pin
pointed on the clash of mighty
Kansas and Southern Methodist.
' At 9:30 p.m. Kansas, ranked No.
2, and Southern Methodist, No. 4,
get together. This will project the
4 outstanding individual duel in the
nation in the meeting of Wilt (The
mStilt) Chamberlain, the 7-foot wiz-
'r.^ard of Kansas, and Jim Krebs, the
6-foot-8 center of Southern Meth-
) odist, who is regarded as the fin-
,est player the Southwest Confer
ence has produced.
Lured to the SMU Coliseum by
SMU’s great team, that has rolled
up a season record of 21-3, and to
see the mighty Chamberlain, a
man who is terrific on offense but
does more damage to the opposi
tion with his treetop reach on de
fense, sell-out croAvds of 7,600 will
be on hand.
It will be Southern Methodist’s
third straight try for the NCAA
championship. The Mustangs fail
ed in 1955 but got to the national
semi-finals last year.
Southern Methodist has played
Kansas 11 times over the years,
winning only twice. But the last
time was in 1956 when the Meth
odists tripped the Jayhawks on the
SMU home court 81-61. But that
was the little bandbox gym that
gave away this year to SMU’s
magnificent coliseum. It was be
cause of this fine court that SMU
was awarded the NCAA regional.

All Confusion
As 20-Second
Rule Enforced
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. —(A 3 )—
Baseball’s new 20-second rule was
introduced here Thursday—and all
was confusion.
The umpire lost the count, pitch
er Herman Wehmeier of the St.
Louis Cardinals lost his temper,
and the Cardinals lost the game.
The rule was put into effect this
year in an effort to speed up the
games. It provides specifically
that a pitcher must not use up
more than 20 seconds from the
time he receives the ball from the
catcher 1 until the moment he de
livers the ball back to the catcher.
Wehmeier was pitching to Gus
Zernial of the Kansas City Ath
letics. The count was two balls
and a strike. Wehmeier was about
to make the next pitch. Zernial
stepped out of the batter’s box to
wipe his forehead.
The umpire, behind the plate,
called “ball” enforcing the rule.
Wehmeier’s red face turned
even redder. Cardinal Manager
Fred Hutchinson failed to hear the
umpire’s call but, sensing some
thing was Avrong, he asked Dixon
what the count was. Two balls
and a strike, Dixon replied.
Catcher Hal Smith and others
agreed later the count was two-
and-one before Dixon enforced the
rule. The umpire said he had
thought it was one-and-one. Thus
Hutchinson still wasn’t aware the
rule had been enforced as the
game proceeded.
