They Said It

? Jack McCloskey, Wake Forest basketball coach, after his team lost to St. Joseph's of Philadelphia: "I don't mind when we play a Catholic school and the referee is Catholic, but when the game is on Ash Wednesday and the ref shows up with a smudge on his forehead I know I'm in trouble."

?Louis (Red) Klotz, owner and player-coach of the team that has played exhibitions against the Harlem Globetrotters for the past 17 years (its record in the series—three wins, 3,492 losses): "I have never told one of my players not to score. I only advise them not to try and be wise guys."
