dangerous Florida with Impressive

SAN FRANCISCO 1UPI ISasket
Ixill approaches the end of its regu

tonight as upset-minded Loyola 'of'

Santa Clara tangles with St.- Marys
in the other end of a twin bill.
The quintets then ring down the
curtain in the cement pavilion

meeting l-oyola. Clashes not in
volving Loyola are Calilornia Bas
ketball Association games. L'SF,
which has been defeated only once
in 15 outings, leads the circuit with
a 4-0 mark.
Loyola could give the Dons (outfit which is trapped in a losing
trouble. Bill Donovan's Lions held streak of seven straight. UCLA is
USF to a nine-point victory, Dec. j undefeated this year in its "1'er-

pany to date.
Oregon Slate's tall firs, their sec
ence Northern Division title virtu
ally in the bag, take an 8-0 league
mark into Moscow, Idaho, tonight
for two weekend games against
Idaho.
Things are a little tighter in the
Southern Division where UCLA and
Stanford try to crack their first
place tie at the expense of Cali
ornia and Southern California respectively.
The Bruins, lone conquerors of
USF so far, entertain a green Bear recently.
In the meantime, Stanford meets
.Southern California at the Indian

Howie Dallmar, collur-ad coach ol
the Stanfords, has warned that "if
we don't win these we had better

Chico State hosts Nevada for two

Kid Gavilan
Sets Fight
With Durando
NEW YORK (UP)-Kid Gavilan,
the Cuban song-and-samba mauler
says his comeback fight with Ernie
Durando tonight will be far differ
ent from the recent return pet
lormance by that other ditty-and-dance
guy, Sugar Ray Robinson.
"I no look like Robinson tonight"
declared the ex-welterweight
champion. "I be 20 times faster
than i was in October."
In the Heed's last fight on Oct.
JO, he lost the 117-pound title to
Johnny Saxton at Philadelphia, Al
though the decision was very
questionable, Gavilan was far off
form that night.
Some observers suspected he had
lost his condition permanently
while touring Cuba with his own
dance troupe last year.
Rarely do veterans of the ring
wars return to form after song-and-dancc
tours. Gavilan is 2!), and
he has 117 professional fights un
der his belt.
The once-great Cuban never ac
tually retired as did Sugar Ray
Robinson, former welterweight and
middleweight ruler. Sugar Ray
came out of retirement, after hvo
and a half years of hoofing and
rooning. on Jan. 19 and suffered
i surprise trouncing by Ralph
i Tiger) Jones. The Tiger was
VI underdog.
For tonight's nationally televised
and broadcast 10-rounder, middle
weight Durando of Bayonne, N.J
is a 4-1 underdog. The odds-makers
believe Gavilan can salvage
enough ol his old-lime speed and
savvy to lick the liayonnc Bolter
a-Iio is the hardest puncher in the
IliO-pound division but probably its
Irast-polishcd boxer.
