SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Charles O.
Finley stared across a green tablecloth
yesterday at 20-game winner Ken Holtz-
man, the first in a long line of Oakland A's
players to take his salary dispute to
arbitration.
"It's no secret that the A's lead both leagues in the number of cases," said Marvin Miller, leader of the Major League Baseball Players Association. Nine players from Finley's World Championship club have hearings scheduled here.
"We're World Champions again," joked Reggie Jackson, who is reportedly asking for $135,000 and will go before an arbitrator to decide if the men's heartbeat as a player responds to pressure.
"I don't know whether I'll bring a lawyer or just go in myself and say. 'Here's what I
Colorado Edges Nebraska, 65-64
BOULDER, Colo. (AP) - Scott Wedman scored 21 points to lead Colorado as the Bufs edged Nebraska 65-64 Tuesday night in a Bie Eight Conference basketball game.
Colorado took the lead late in the first half, led 33-28 at intermission and barely managed to hold on in the final minute of a game, while rallied behind the shooting of Jerry Fort.
Colorado, now 4-8 in the Big Eight, is 9-12 overall. Nebraska is 4-8 in the conference.

"All he brought was himself, his wife and a briefcase," said reliever Rollie Fingers, whose hearing also was scheduled yesterday. "If I were him, I'd bring a whole bunch of lawyers. If he loses these cases, it could cost him about $150,000."

No.7 Pitt on Prowl, Jayhawks 16th
By the Associated Press
The Pitt Panthers are on the prowl—and moving up.
The University of Pittsburgh basketball team, which had an undistinguished 12-14 record a year ago, is the surprise of the 1974 college basketball season. After the Panda team's season opener to West Virginia, they started winning . . . and they haven't stopped.
Pitt has played 19 games since then and has won them all. It's the longest winning streak in the nation among major college teams, and it has propelled the Panthers into the 7. spot in this week's Associated Press poll, released today.
Pitt moved from 10th place a week ago after an 85-70 triumph over Kent State and a loss to Alabama.
Oklahoma State, 85-71, and Colorado, 81-66,
moved up from 17th to 18th.
The top five teams in the poll remained unchanged from last week. The UCLA Bruins, 18-1, were on top, receiving 49 of 50 firstplace votes and 98 of a possible 1,000. The Bruins whipped Oregon 86-44 and squashed past Oregon State 80-73 last and squashed past Ohio State 80-73
Second was North Carolina State, with 89 points. Notre Dame, which ended UCLA's record winning streak at 88 games with a 71-70 upset earlier in the year before losing a rematch with Bruins, was third with 797 points, including the one first-place vote UCLA missed. Both N.C. State and Notre Dame are 18-1.
Creighton, which upset ninth-ranked Marquette 75-69 Saturday night, is a newcomer to the top 20, as are Utah and Arizona.
