P) Thir teen players from th McPherson, Kbs., OUcr and the Universal Pic tures of Hollywood assured them selves of a trip to Berlin tonight whsn they shot their way Into the finals of the Olympto basketball tournament at Madison Square aorden. The oilers turned back the University or wasn' lngton 48 to 30 after the Universale had eliminated the Wllmeraing, ra Y. M. C. A. 43 to 29. In reaching the final of the Na tional A. A. U. championships, the Oilers, the title holders, staged a great second half drive to eliminate the last of the five college quintets. The Unlversals, runner-up for the A. A. U. crown, overpowered the Y. M. champions with a slow breaking of lense that got result from the start. The two finalists will meet tomor row night after tonight's defeated Jives have settled the argument over third place. Eight players from the championship team and five from the runner-ups automatically qualify for the Olympic team while a fourteenth player will be selected from the six other teams that started competition last night. The Huskies offered the Oilers un expected opposition for the first half, trailing only 22 to 19 at the halfway mark. They wilted under the national champions' furious pace In the second , session, however, scoring only five field goals, two of them In the last two minutes. , The Oilers were slower then usual finding the range and found them selves trailing 19 to 14 after 14 mln ' utes c: play In a nip and tuck affair that saw the lead change hands fre quently. The champlona then went to town. They rolled In eight more points before the end of the closing session before Ralph Bishop broke through to score for the collegians. Coach Gene Johnson used every one of his towering players but the com bination made no difference in the Oilers' sensational second half of fense. Francis Johnson, brother of the coach, led the attack with IS points but Joe Fortenberry, six foot eight Inch oenter, accounted for 12 and four other of the players broke Into the coring column. The Huskies were unable to shake Ed Loverlch loose as they did last night, when he scored 20 points, but he managed to sink four field goals to lead the Collegians' attack. 4 BASEBALL (By United Press) At Columbia; R.

OAKS KEEP LEAD; Beaver Ace Hurlers Batted From B(ft Seattle Grabs Slugfest. (By United Press) Oakland won Its sixth game In seven start Saturday to retain Its pace-making post In the Pacific Coast league race and to confound further the critics who had picked Bill Meyers' clubs as an also-ran. Playing the same heads-up ball be hind excellent pitching that has marked their performance, since the getaway last Saturday, the Oaks to day mowed down the Los Angeles Seals, 6-1. The game was in doubt until the sixth, when the Oakland entry unleashed a four-run attack, aided by Leroy Anton's homer. Jack Laroooa, a rookie with a blind ing fast ball, scattered seven hits and kept the Angels scoreless after the third for hla second win of the season.- The Mission Reds kept a game be hind the pace-makers . by beating Portland, fl-3. As was the case with the Oaks, It was a rookie, left-handed Prank L&manakl, who turned in the win. Hit hard at times, L&manakl put on pressure In the tight places and hurled courageously to score his sec ond victory. George Caster, Portland's No. 1 hurler, was batted from the box. Paul Gregory of Seattle also made it victory No. 2 of the campaign by chalking up a 7-fl win over San Diego In a free-hlttlng contest. The Indians battered PUlette for 13 safe ties and sewed up the game with a three-run splurge In the ninth. San Diego also rallied In the last frame but Gregory shut them off after one run scored.

(UP) On a muddy, alow track and . with chill wind whistling through the stadium, the University of California's Golden Bear track team today soundly trounoed University of California at Loa Angeles, 87 to 34, In their dual meet. Runners, Jumpers end weight tot- aera of the northern branch of the state university piled up a total of 11 first places and three clean aweepa to outclass completely their "little brothers" of Los Angeles, With exception of the pole vault, in which Dick Valentine of UCLA set a new meet mark with a leap of IS feet, six inches, times and distances In all events were below average. The soggy track, which rolling and fill lug had failed to dry materially after last night's showers, forced runners to sweep wide on the turns and slowed every race. PECK MEETS PETE "The beat wrestling card I've had In over six months" tt the way Pro moter Mack LlUard describes tomor row night's three-star card at the Armory when Pete Belcastro, Pacific coast Junior heavyweight champion, tanglea In a rematch with Frankle Feck, cement Jawed San Franciscan, on the main event. . Both men are clean mat artists as are prince Mlhalakls, Arabian noble man, and Dr. Barney Cosneck, Ph.D. from the University of Illinois on the middle event and Danny Savlch of Utah and Frank Taylor of Ohio State, who clash In the opener. Two things distinguish each of the gladiators; each Is raatj and clever and possesses a world of holds, and each Is clean. Of the six men on the bill only one has ever started any underhanded mat work on his own volition, and that one, Belcastro, has sworn off the dirty work for over a year. Without promising as much. Cham pion Belcaciro has intimated that if Peck takes tomorrow's fracas, the championship belt will be at stake for a future match. He has, however. refused to post the trophy In the coming engagement. Each man on the card has his own specialty. Belcastro features a giant swing, his new rope-swing and back body drop, and hla Mexican death lock; Peck features a akuU crunching bead lock and the Hammer lock; Ml balakta has his own version of the reverse Indian deathlock which he has termed his "camel lock"; and Cos neck relies strongly on a rolling wrist lock and head scissors. Savlch, former All-American foot ball guard from the University of Utah, relies on an old football spe cialty, the flying tacke, while Taylor, aso a football player, from Ohio State, features a hold of his own, a wrUt lock with which he flails the mat with an opponent. It was with this bold, and Tuffy Cleet as the mop, that Taylor washed out a floor Joist at the Armory several months ago. There has been no rise in prices for the all-star card, LlUard said. 4 COOPER WITH 139 HELD CINCH FOR AUGUSTA. Da., April 4. (UP) Light horse Harry Coopei, Chicago veteran, ruled the Augusta National again to day as the all-star field of 83 passed the. half-way mark. Cooper, who owns one of the most consistent scoring records among American professionals, proved his consistency today by adding a 69, three strokes under par, to an open ing 70, to lead the field by five strokes. When the sun dipped, Cooper was so far In front that two casually good rounds should be enough for him to win the title. But if Harry should crack, there are enough worthies in pursuit to make sure he will not luck hla way Into the title. For Instance, at 144 are two dan gerous foemen. They are Denny Shuts of Boston, who won the Brit ish open In 1832, and Bobby Crulck shank, Richmond, who Is one of the greatest players never to have won a major title. Shute today had a pair of 34's for 68, while Crulckshank had 35-3468. PINEHURST, N. 0 Apall 4- (UP) George Dunlap, New York lnterna tlonallat, today further established himself as one of the world's finest amateur golfers when he won the annual north and south amateur championships for the fourth year In succession. Dunlap'a victim today was Acqui- alla Giles, New York, and the score waa 8 and 7. He rolled over the Manhattan club player Just aa easily as he did his other final round oppo nents in 1931, 1933. 1934 and 193S. U. of O. Game Postponed EUGENE, April 4.

A. meet, crack ed his own mark of 1:46.5 In the 150 yard backstroke by three and five tenths seconds, winning over Burns of the Beavers by four yards. The Oregon medley relay team shaved four-tenths of a second off their own coast mark in the 300 yard event. The only event In which Oregon didn't take a first place was the 200 yard breaststroke, which went to Caddey, of Washington. Bert Meyer, Oregon's No. 2 diver from Oswego, scored an upset by de feating his teammate and former champion. Bob Chilton, In the three meter fancy diving. T HALTED BY RAIN GRANTS PASS, April 4.
