floor with a tremendous salvo of
applause with 3:02 left to play.
Iowa, Colorado; in Prelim
In Saturday ' night's program,
Iowa and Colorado will play for
- third place in the national collegi
ate tourney. x
Colorado's last chance went with
little more than 14 minutes to play
as Colorado's biggest player, 6-7
center Burdette Haldorson, went
out of the game on five personals.
At that point Russell pumped in
a free throw which . moved San
Francisco ahead 30-21.
Shortly after that the game
turned into a walk-away- as the
Dons sped to"ra16-point margin,
40-24, with little more than eight
minutes to play.
Control Game Played
The first half produced a terrific
control game and for a time it
appeared the game might surpass
the tourney's tightest game, the
1941 first round game in which
Pittsburgh defeated North Caroli
na 26-20.
The lead exchanged hands six
tirfies in the cautiously played first
half and San Francisco never real
ly got.controluntil the closing min
utes of the first half. i
With less than two minutes to the
..intermission San Francisco led
only 19-18.
Then Stan Buchanan dropped in
a pair of free throws and Hal
Perryand sub AVarren Baxter each
plunked a basket just before the
buzzer sounded for San Francisco's
six-point halftime lead, 25-19.
25th Win in Row
It was San Francisco's 25th
straight victory and gave the Dons
a 27-1 record. Their only setback
was by UCLA in their third game
of the season. v
Russell, who scored 24 points
Friday night, had a 21.3 average
for the 27 previous games. '
The game found -both , teams
starting without two star players
because of injuries.
However, both got into the game
but neither star, 6-5 Jerry Mullen
of San Francisco or Tom Harrold
of Colorado, scored a point.
Mullen who wrenched an ankle
in San Francisco's 57-56 edging of
Oregon Stale last Saturday ,xplayed
longer than Harrold.
San Francisco hit a tremendous
51.2 shooting percentage in the
' tightly played game, against 28.6
average for Colorado.

Saxon Star Tries for Field Goal
Duquesne, Dayton ffilix
NIT Finals
By HUGH FULLERTON Jr.
NEW YORK UP) Duquesne's basketball team, which hasn't h3d
to display its best abilities so far, and Dayton, wLich has been push
ed to the bmit in both its games, meet Saturday night in the final
cf the 18th National Invitation Tournament
But most of the fans who are
expected to fill Madison Square
Garden almost to capacity likely
will come early to see one of(the
aiso-rans.
Dayton Holds Edge
Duquesne and Dayton, seeded
first and second in the tourna
ment, and ranked sixth and ninth,
respectively, in ' the' Associated
Press national poll, have met three
times this season with Dayton
holding a 2-1 edge. Off the records,
it should be the best possible final
in the 12-tearn tournament.
Yet all the' rave notices so far
have gone to Maurice Stokes of
little St. Francis College, an un
seeded team that came down from
the Pennsylvania mountains to bat
tle its way into the semi-finals
and to carry Dayton into an over
time period before losing,' 79-73.
St. Francis and Cincinnati, 65-51
loser to Duquesne In the- other
semifial. clash in the third place
game before Saturday's final.
Stokes Scores 43
Stokes' performance Thursday,
when he scored 43 points, grabbed
19 rebounds, played 45 minutes
aeainst two much taller men, di
rected the Frankies' attack and
made a half dozen passes that
might have won the game if his
teammates had been able to suite
the shots, was hailed Friday as
the finest one-man show ever seen
in a Garden tournament.
"He was better as an all-around
player than George Mikan was
when he scored 53 points (an NIT
record) against Rhode Island
State," said Coach Joe Lapchick of
the pro Knickerbockers. Others
compared Stokes to Hank Luisetti,
Frank Baumhoitz, Ed Macauley,
Don Lofgran and Tom Gola, who
have turned in some standout per
formances in the NIT.

McARTHUR COURT, Eugene (Special) The Eugene Axemen
and Medford's Black Tornado steamed into the finals of the 37th
Oregon Class A High School Basketball Tournament here Friday
night. The Axemen, rated among the state's elite during the regular
campaign, and runners-up to Milwaukie for the 1954 championship,
swept by Central Catholic by a 73-46 score, and the Southern Ore
gon Tornado, voted Oregon's No. 1 prep team during most of the
season, clipped Cleveland High, the Portland champion, by a close

MEXICO CITY W) Louis
Jones, a New York Army private
who had become a perennial track
runnerup, raced to the Pan-American
400 meters championship in
45.4 seconds Friday, clipping four-
tenths of a second ott the world
record, and then collapsed on the
track.
The 22-year-old former Manhat
tan College athlete apparently was
exhausted by his driving finish.
Teammate Jim Lea of Southern
California, who finished just a
lunge behind at :45.6, also bet
tered the record of :45.8 held by
George Rhoden of Jamaica.
This dramatic race, which saw
Jesse Mashburn of Oklahoma A.
and M. finish third at : 46.9 for a
U. S. sweep, highlighted another
day of victory for Uncle Sam's
forces, already virtually assured
of the unofficial team 'champion
ship won in 1951 by Argentina.
lT. S. Far Ahead
The U. S. has rolled up 445 points
in the unofficial standings to 133Va
for Argentina in second place.
Mexico was third with 107.
Karen Anderson of Lansdowne,
Pa., won the women's javelin
throw with a tremendous heave of
161 feet, 3 inches, which is close
to some of the best efforts of the
wideljs heralded amazons behind
the Iron Curtain.
Rafer Johnson, a powerful, 19-year-old
UCLA freshman, brought
memories of the great Bob Ma
thias as he took a long lead at
the halfway point .of the rigorous
decathlon, winning feur of the five
events contested and finishing sec
ond in the other.
Richards Trails
He won the 100 meter dash,
broad jump, high jump and 400
meters and came in second to the
Rev. Bob "Richards, national de
cathlon champion, in the shot put.
This gave the Kingsbury, Calif.,
youngster a total of 4,213 points
compared with 3,999 for Richards.
Four South Americans trailed.

MIAMI Ufl Ted Williams, re

I can't think of returning to base
ball right now."
Williams, who retired at the end
of last season but is being asked
to return by the club, would not
answer the telephone himself but
relayed his replies through a
friend.
Doubt Expressed
"Honestly, I don't know what I
will do," the friend-quoted Wil
liams as saying when asked if he
intended to join the Red Sox this
spring.

Coaches Frown
On Bonus Shot
KANSAS CITY W) - The Na
tional Assn. of Basketball Coaches
recommended Friday that the con
troversial bonus shot be eliminated
from the three-throw rules.
The coaches would alter the
rules to allow one free throw on
the first eight common fouls each
half for each team. Two "free
throws would be allowed on sub
sequent common fouls. This
change was voted 64-31.
The coaches voted down a pro
posal that would put a time limit
on ball possession for the offensive
team.
Rules Group Slated
Their recommendations will go
to the national basketball rules
committee. That group will be in
session here Sunday through Tues
day noon.
The coaches' recommendations
include one that would give de
fensive players the two inside po
sitions on free throws.
Under the present setup for the
free throw positions defensive and
offensive players alternate along
the lanes.
Pro Roles Dropped
The coaches disapproved a mo
tion to adopt the professional rules
as a package deal.. Another pro
posal which would widen the free
throw lanes from six to 12 feet
also lost.
After seven hours of turmoil de
scribed as the worst in Montreal
since the anti - conscription riots
of World War II, some semblance
of order was restored early Fri
day morning by police.
But the main issue still steamed
as hot as ever the suspension
of Maurice (The Rocket) Richard,
the idol of the fans and one of
Montreal's greatest hockey stars.
Richard himself went on televi
sion and radio Friday night and
asked "everyone to get behind"
the Canadians "so that no further
harm will be done."
The rocket said he will take his
punishment and be back next year.
Richard made his appeal in both
French and English. , ,
Fans Show Wrath
Fans, as well as many persons
unable to gain admittance to the
forum for Thursday night's game
between Montreal and the Detroit
Red Wings, were fired to fury at
Richard's suspension.
Clarence Campbell, Canadian -born
president of the league, on
Wednesday had banned The 'Rock
et from the ice for the rest of the
scheduled season and the Stanley
Cup playoffs. This would be com
parable in the . United States to
the suspension of a Babe Ruth or

PCC Will Cast
Negative Vote
LOS ANGELES W The Pacific
Coast Conference will vote against
the 1955 football television plan
proposed by the NCAA.
The conference has decided to
cast a negative vote, but intends
to see if the plan is adopted by the
NCAA- membership before decid
ing to what extent, if any. Pacific
Coast Conference members may
participate in it," said Victor O.
Schmidt, commissioner of the PCC.
The PCC had submitted to the
NCAA television committee a plan
for extensive regional televising,
but under national control,
Schmidt said that the NCAA plan
now being voted on contained some
regional provisions, but did not
measure up to what the PCC de
sires. Schmidt pointed out that while
Friday's announcement discloses
the PCC vote as an NCAA mem
ber, it does not reveal how the
conference schools would cast their
individual ballots as NCAA members.
