He has now scored 41 goals league record for a rookie by four goals. Latest league statistics showed Spokane's Max Mekilok leading scorers with 91 points.

Then came a Duquesne in terception, a Bradley steal and a bad pass by the Braves before Mike Rice's two free throws with 12 seconds left clinched it for the Dukes. Duquesne's unerring eye at the foul line made a vital dif ference. The Dukes hit a re markable 20-for-20 in the second half. St. John's also experienced scare against Holy Cross, but time was on the Redmen's side With Ellis netting 21 of the 35 points, the New Yorkers zipped ahead of the Crusaders 74-53 in the first 15 minutes of the sec ond half. Jack "The Shot" Fo ley and company put on, an amazing run in the closing five minutes, with spurts of 11-0 and 6-0, before the clock ran out Ellis topped St. John's with 29 points and was the game's big rebounder. Foley, well han dled by Willie Hall until the is sue was decided, fired in 35-26 in the second half. The slim, fast-shooting senior wound up his campaign with a 33.3-point average, second in the nation to Utah's Billy McGill. . . Both winners were hot from the floor, St. John's clicking on 62 per cent and Duquesne on 57 per cent. For Duquesne coach Red Manning, that per centage was an important fac tor. I'd say the team shooting was the key. I wasn't pleased with our defense it cooled off too much in the second half but we were a better team than when we won by one point at Bradley a couple of weekg ago." Joe Lapchick, who has coached three previous NIT champions at St. John's, was full of admira tion for the Dukes. "They're lovely to watch, a bunch of good, tough kids. Som erset is the finest guard I've seen in years I don't know how we'll handle him. For us, Hall certainly stood out. He made the shots when we needed them and his defense made the dif ference in the first half. Of course, nobody stops Foley for too long I've never seen his equal as a shooter." ...-' Women's Volleyball Littler Top Winner DUNEDIN, Fla.

Bobby Hull scored! At least 20 hats and caps were thrown onto the rink from the stands, along with paper cups, torn-up programs and a rain of other trash. Screams, shrieks, yells all were mixed with the toots of air horns in an utterly unbe lievable demonstration that lasted nearly eight minutes. It was the brond bomber's only goal of the game, but his 48th in a drive to match, or pass, the National Hockey League season record of 30 held by former Montreal star Maur ice Richard and current Cana dien gun Bernie "Boom Boom" Geoffrion.
