Oilers Rout Washington 48 to 30 in Olympic Basketball Tryouts
HUSKIES FOLD UP
SECOND HALF;
Towering Kansans Held
Even in First Periods,
Score at Will in Final
Offense.
NEW YORK, April . 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.

OAKS KEEP LEAD;

(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. "
San Francisco end Sacramento

MEMORIAL COLISEUM. Los Ang
eles, April 4. (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.

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.
