Bears Set New Records in Homer Wins;
Will Meet Kenai Kardinals Tonight
Rebounding from a double loss
to West Anchorage, the Kodiak
Bears opened their Southcentral
Conference season with two wins
over Homer, setting two confer
ence records in the process.
The first game found the Bears
hitting at a 47 per cent clip from
the floor in overwhelming the
Mariners 98-45. The two records
were set in this game: 98 points for
a single game and 55 points for one
half (the Bears led at halftime
55-27).
Coach Terry McMullin indicated
that it was truly a team victory.
Five players scored in double fi
gures. There were Stan Sargent
with 23, Jim Fleming 17, Wayne
Kozak and Aloys Kopun with 12
each, and Larry Detizer with 10.
Other scorings were: Jerry Flem
ing 9, Ron Franklin 7, Jim Sholl
6, and Dick Veerman 2.
McMullin used his second five
during most of the second half and
lost little scoring punch because
of it.
The second game found the Mar
iners trying to control the ball
during the first quarter. The Bears
however held a 14-5 lead at the
quarter and a 33-19 lead at half
time. Homer threatened in the
third quarter cutting the Kodiak
lead to 9 points at one point. But
the Bears, led by Jim Fleming
went on to the eventual victory.
Fleming, with 29 points, led the
Bears and came within two points
of tieing the conference individual
scoring record. He made a total
of 16 shots out of 30 attempts for
the two-game series. Stan Sargent,
leading the Bears in rebounding,
contributed 14 while reserve guard
Larry Deitzler had 11.
McMullin pointed out that he
was very impressed with the play
of the team as a whole.
“The entire fir* five played
very good ball games. They were
steady. Jim Fleming seems to have
found himself as a varsity player.
Larry Deitzler and Jerry Fleming
came off the bench and performed
very well. Deitzler scored in dou
ble figures both nights. I hope
that the boys' confidence was re
stored after their close defeats to
West and that they will be ready
for Kenai this weekend,” Coach
McMullin stated.
The defending Southeastern
champion Kenai Kardinals invade
Kodiak for two games tonight and
tomorrow night. They are current
ly tied with the Bears for the con
ference lead — each has a 2-0 rec
ord.
Kodiak will be out to avenge four
losses in four games to the Kard
inals last year in Kenai’s march
to the title.
Both varsity games, which start
at 8 p.m., will be preceded by JV
games which will get underway at
8:30 p.m.
A true gentleman will always call
a spade a spade, even when he
trips over one.
Governor Seeks
Lower L.D. Rate
A study is now being made of
the earnings of the Alaska Com
munications System with a view to
putting into effect lower long dis
tance telephone rates after 9 p.m.
as are now in effect in all states
but Alaska and Hawaii.
The chairman of the Federal
Communications Commission has
thus advised Gov. William A. Egan
in reply to a query from the latter
as to its possibility. He had first
requested it in June of this year.
The rate reduction, which Gov.
Egan urged be extended to Alaska,
applied to all out-of-state calls
placed after 9:00 p.m. to points
more than 220 miles distant and re
duced charges to not more than $1
for the first three minutes.

FORD'S TOTAL PERFORMANCE TOUGHNESS
DOMINATES THE COMPETITION WORLD!
Ford has chosen the most rugged testing program cars have ever faced . . . full-scale open competi
tion on the rally and racing circuits of the world. This is the dramatic way to show that Fords have
changed ... and the sure way to be certain they keep on changing. Changed? Just look at the record:
STOCK CM MONO:
2-to-l margin far Ford
Ford is king of NASCAR com
petition and Ford Motor Com
pany has the NASCAR
Achievement Award to prove
it In the 'S3 season, special
Ford entries won every single
race of 500 miles or longer,
scored nearly twice as many
points as any other make.
500-mile races are the ulti
mate test of inherent dura
bility and dependability. In two
other major stock car raciM
associations IMCA and MARC,
Ford drivers have wrapped
op the 1963 championships.
SPORTS CM ROM RACAK:
Ford V-8 power
ie the new king
Hera the Cobra with its spe
cial Fairlane engine emerged
as the overwhelming leader
in one short year. Cobra won
the coveted Manufacturer's
Trophy in SCCA Class A Pro
duction competition by so
wide a margin no other cars—
U.S. or foreign—were even in
sight And in the two major
tests this fall, the Laguna
Sees and Riverside races, the
new King Cobras dusted off
the top "unlimited" cars from
all over the world.
RALLY COMPtllllOR:
Manufacturer’s
Championship
Products of Ford Motor
Company and its worldwide
affiliates won the 1963 Manu
facturer's World Rally Cham
pionship. Ford's rally year
began when two specially
equipped Falcon V-8's startled
the automotive world in the
brutal 2500-mile Monte Carlo
Rallye. Other special Falcon
V-rs triumphed in Holland's
famed Tulip Rally, and ran
away with the Manufacturer's
Team Prize in the 4000-mile
Trans-Canada Rally.
MDUUMMUS:
Ford enda an era
Advanced Ford engineering
smashed precedent in the
dassic Indianapolis “500.”
The first time out a light alloy '
version of the Fairlane V4
design In a Lotus chassis
finished second. And the next
time, in the Milwaukee "200"
it ended the reign of the tra
ditional “Indy'’ racing car by
leading every foot of the way
from start to finish.
PTTONMimCr ft ECONOMY:
New laurels for Ford
The Mobil Economy Rue
underscored Falcon's years
long reputation for thrift—a
Falcon scored first in Class B
Smedium-engined compacts),
ind the Pure Oil Performance
Trials brought laurels to the
big Fords, which walked off
with overall wins in Classes I
and II for total performance
(economy, acceleration and
braking).
1964 Result:
TOTAL PERFORMANCE INSPIRES THE TOUGHEST,
SMARTEST CARS FORD EVER BUILT!
Fords have changed—and that’s the real
reason behind Ford’s racing successes. We’re
now making the longest lasting, best han
dling cars in our history. The things we’ve
learned from the specially equipped cars we
enter in open competition have helped make
them that way.
The inherent qualities that make the vie
torious racing car—road-holding, braking,
durability, precision control, resistance to
vibration—also make a car safer, stronger,
and smoother for highway use.
But prove it to yourself. Take the wheel
of any new Ford. Five minutes on the road
will show you the kind of total performance
no one else can match.
