(U1M) When Bump and Pete Elliott played together for Michigan in the Roto Bowl on Jan. 1, 1948, Bump never dreamed that one . day he would throw a roadblock to his youngor brother's path to . the post-season classic. But that's exactly what hap pened last Saturday when Bump piloted Michigan to a stunning 14-8 triumph r.vcr the Illinois club coached by Pete to earn the United Press International "coach of the week" honors Illinois went Into tho game ranked as the nation's No. 2 team with an excellent chance Time For This! of golnrt to the Rose Bowl.

The Warriors, returning to the city they left two years' ago in franchise shift, were edged 106-102 in an overtime game by the 70ers, formerly the Syracuse; Nats. It was the only game! scheduled in the NBA Tuesday night. The game had another nostal gic touch since Alex Hannum, San Francisco coach, is the for mer mentor of the Syracuse Nats. . Hannum said the situation led to an inspired and "well-played" ball game but to the Warriors' Guy Rodgors, who was a colle giate star at Temple University here, it was just another road gamo. This despite the fact that his family was in the stands, The Warriors got a nice hand from the crowd of 5,817 when they came on the floor, for the prc-gamo warmup but the loy alty of the fans was with the current local -NBA entry, the 76ers. - The victory was a satisfying one for Dolph Schayes, new 76ers coach who starred for many years with the Nats un der Hannum. But for a time, it appeared the work of Wilt Chamberlain, tho formtr favorite here, would deprive the 7flers of the tri umph. - , San Francisco rallied to send the tight game into overtime when Chamberlain, who has won new fame as a - playmaker, tipped in Rodgcrs' missed jump shot to deadlock the game 96-96 as time ran out. Tho Warriors then scored the first four points of the extra pe riod on a basket by Rodgcrs and another by Wayne High- tower. But the 76ers rallied to tie the game at 100-100 and there was another tic at 102-102 before Hal Greer sent the home team ahead for good with a field goal with S3 seconds remaining. Two free throw conversions by Ben Ware ly clinched the triumph.
