This observer believes Ali tried to knock out Bonavena in the 9th, as he said he would. And he almost did. But then near the end Bonavena caught him with a good punch and had his own legs rubbery and Ali admitted it afterward. Bonaveha himself is respon­ sible for his 15th round K.O. He came out ) trying to K.O. Clay and wore himself out and left himself wide open and Ali is good enoughNto take advantage of such carelessness. Oscar could have gone all the way but he knew the fight was lost. What does this fight indicate about the hoped-for match be­ tween Ali and Joe Frazier in February? It tells this observer that Xu is still very good and that the contest will be a very fine heavyweight title fight. Frazier can hit harder than Bon­ avena and he isn't afraid of Ali. Ali is a better boxer, faster and has, also, power in both hands. But he isn't quite as sharp as he used to be. And Frazier is better than he used to be. At his best, he would probably have taken Frazier. He is still the favorite. But it will be quite a fight and Frazier is the one man who could knock Ali out. That is what he will be aiming to do, because he isn't likely to outpoint a boxing dandy like Ali. 1. Who is the manager of the Detroit Tigers? What was the score of ^he Texas-UCLA football game?

She called back again to tell us a press release had been mailed to us.- It must have gone with the Santa Claus mail 'cause it nev­ er reached us. So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR Anyhow, we toured down to the ski spot Saturday, hoping to meet Susan--thinking what a shock she would get when she saw us as a subject for ski lessons. A nice, on-the-ball girl named Barb Keebler was there to meet and greet members of the press and treated us just dandy in open house bits and sips. Ted Kottmeier, operations manager, came over to sit down for a visit and explain how things were put together to make the place attractive. Ted's wife was also very gra­ cious in seeing to it that we didn't suffer from hunger or thirst. Learned that she was a Parisi girl who attended Mc­ Henry high school. the famous horse carts built by Studebaker. Ted Kottmeier told us it is one of only twelve such carts left in the United States. From this you might gather that we did everything but ski. You are right! But, we did en­ joy watching young people who are learning the art. Why do we give this much ink to Fox Trails? Simply because we think such outdoor sport is great for young and not so young. We liked the looks of those rosy cheeked kids. And, thanks for the invita­ tion, Susan. On Sunday we attended the open house at Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Benoy's home where lo­ cal people had the opportunity to meet and visit with students from other countries who are here under the A.F.S. program. The host families who have taken these students into their homes for the school year are the Benoys, the Richard Wieg- mans and the Jerry Rogers. V<? f Keith Chew, ski director, was another friendly person we met and visited with for a few min­ utes. young people under the ex­ change program are all out­ standing and well-screened be­ fore chosen. We have always hoped this program would go far in bringing about better understanding in the world. The famous Meister Brau 6- horse team drew a lot of at­ tention. The matched stallions which pull the brewery wagon are the only horses of the "Westphalische Kaltblut" breed in America and were or­ iginally brought to this country in 1965 for the New York World's Fair. Beautiful animals they were--all dressed up in their handmade harness made in Germany. "The Barn", a rustic pub located on the second floor of the barn adjoining the ski chal­ et, is a popular spot. It hasn't been fancied up and that makes it attractive. We were especially inter­ ested in different types of sad­ dles on the walls. Broght us back to our pony days. Another attraction was one of Like Old Mother Hubbard we found our desk drawer empty when looking for sports news to fill the first issue this week. Guess all of our contributors were vacationing or too busy with the whirl of Christmas. 'Twas too late to head for the storage bin when we realized what was or wasn't happen­ ing. Now, we are headin' for the last roundup of 1970. It wasn't too different from other years. Some ups--some downs. But, like a new broom, 1971 will sweep in for a clean, fresh start. So--Happy New Year!--May smooth roads prevail, and the Good Lord give us what it takes to absorb the bumps. The Colorado River Aque­ duct has 92 miles of tunnels, many large enough for a rail­ road locomotive to pass through. inimmmnmmmm HARVARD • . THEATRE 21-23 N.
