their portion of last-night's bas
ketball doubleheader at the Vik

single point in the three additional
minutes, after battling the Trap

The Buffs had boosted their

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Dec. 22
UH Two classy small college
football teams, Montana State and
St. Joseph's of Indiana, fought a
scoreless tie in rain and mud here
today mat marked the first an
nual Aluminum Bowl offering.
A hardy crowd of about S.000
braved the chill rain to watch the.
teams try to determine the cham
pionship or the National Associa
tion of Intercollegiate Athletics.
Millions more watched the nation
ally televised contest at home.
Montana State's star tackle.
Ron Warxeka, tried a wobbly field
goal attempt from 18 yards out
in the fourth period. The rain-
soaked ball barely reached the
goal line and that was the nearest
thing to a score in the ball game.
Montana Slate averaged 40 yards
kicking and St. Joseph's 41.9. For
the Montanans it was a new ex
perience. They had romped
through their regular 9-game sea
son undefeated and untied, aver
aging 34.7 points per game.
Russell Stars
On Defense,
Celts Nab Win
BOSTON, Dec. 22 Sore-legged
Bill Sharman swished a 15
foot lump shot as the final buzzer
sounded today to climax a brilliant
Boston rally for the Celtics' 95-93
National Basketball Assn. victory
over St. Louis in a thriller at Bos
ton Garden.
Sharman, his left leg heavily
taped from the Injuries which have t
kept him out of the Eastern Divls-!
ion leaders' lineup for two weeks,
let go as he got the ball from a
pass-in. The Celts had called time
out with three seconds remaining.
Jim Loscutoff. former Oregon
player, set up the play by control
ling a Jump from which the Celts
called time. The In-bounds pass
went to Tom Heinsohn who had
broken loose under the bucket. The
Holy Cross All America led Bos
ton scorers with 19 points but St.
Louis' Bob Pettit had a game high
of 28. ' ,
Bill Russell, the San Francisco
All America and Olympic star
making his professional debut, ex
celled on defense by blocking shots
and breaking up passes. He scored
six points and grabbed 16 rebounds
in 21 minutes of service. The s-10
giant spilled Arnle Risen st cen
ter for the Celts and held his own
defensively against Pettit and
Chuck Share.
St. Louis was ahead as much as
84-70 in the fourth period before
the Celts broke loose.
Two set shots by Loscutoff
brought the Celtics to within two
points and when Bob Cousy's driv
ing layup was ruled no basket be
cause of an infraction with IS sec
onds to play the 11,052 fans roared
their disapproval .
Russel, whose major weakness
was at the foul line where he
missed four out of four,, got his
first NBA point at 11:24 of the
first period on a soft right hand
hook. He banged home two tap-ins
in the third period.
