In NIT Finals
New York, Mar. 17 (U.PJ
Bradley s and City College of
New York will meet in the
finals of the National Invitation
tournament tomorrow night and
the survivor will Inherit an op
portunity to become the nation :
undisputed basketball champion
By winning the W.I.T.. the un
seeded Beavers, who defeated
Duquesne 62 to 52 in the sem
finals last night, can clinch a bid
to represent district two in the
N.C.A.A. tournament and
chance to win an unprecedented
grand slam.
Top-seded Bradley, which
knocked off dogged St. John s,
83 to 72, in the semi-finals at
Madison Square Garden, faced
a similar opportunity.
Meet Kansas Later
The Braves will leave imme
diately after tomorrow night's
final for Kansas City, Mo., where
they will meet Kansas tor tne
right to represent district five
in the IM.U.A.A. tourney.
The betting was that Bradley
which looked far more impres
sive in its semi-final triumph
last night than did C.C.N.Y., had
the better chance to make it.
City College, though still
threat, appeared to have cooled
off somewhat from the amazing
pace it set in eliminating defend
ing champion San Francisco and
second-seeded Kentucky in the
first two rounds.
