Corvallis Golf Ace Still Leads Pebble Beach, Cal., Mar. 24 !U.R Grace De Moss of Corvallis. Ore., scored her second golfing victory within a week yesterday by firing a three-day total of 225 in the 54-hole women's cham pionship over the Monterey Pe ninsula Country club course. Last weekend, the Oregon State star successfully defended her Pebble Beach championship for women in another tourna ment of the California women's circuit.

The greatest ocean depth, near the island of Mindanao, in the Pacific, is 35,400 feet. OSCAR FRALIY V&v" 3 United Press SSi 5P0,,, W,',,, Sport Parade Oscar Fralcy Aintree, Eng., Mar. 24 (U.R) Fearless Fraley cantered around the Grand National race course at Aintree to day and, as the tumbling Capt. Archibald Becher said in 1839: "How un pleasant water can be without brandy." Captain Becher gave his name to the most famous jump of the 30 which are scat tered over the four and a half mile course when lie abruptly left his mount in an unscheduled parting the year the race was inaugurated. Even so, ho did it the easy way. Old Fearless ran them without benafit of horse. Af ter all, 25 out of 30 horses weren't able to negotiate those hedgethorn jumps in two races yesterday and my insurance doesn't cover parting your hair with a hoof. Forty-nine steeds with as many maniacs aboard will take off from the starting line tomorrow in the quarter-mile dash to the first jump. It's going to look like the first at Balaclava and it's an even 12 to 1 against any one nag going the distance. That starting straightaway looks like roughly the distance from New York to Chicago when you stand there at the post. Then there are two rail fences before they alleviate the monot ony with a rail ditch and fence. Next is another pair of rail fences before you come to Cap tain Becher's personal Waterloo. Becher's brook is an innocent looking obstacle, until you take off over its 4 foot 10 inch bar rier. On the other side it drops down over a 5 foot 6 inch brook like an elevator in the Empire State building. Everybody who clears this hazard safely should expect to live to a ripe old age. Farther on they pile into Valentine's brook. From there it's a breeze to the home stretch, marred only by five more rail fences, and then the guys who stage this master piece of mayhem really get rough. Along in front of the stands there's a six foot open ditch with a five foot two inch fence at the far side. If you make that one, there's another water jump com ing up, a 15 foot patch of aqua with a fence to set it off. That's Aintree and the Grand National, bub. And if you've managed to sit your horse that long, he's still on his legs, somebody hasn't fal len in front of you, the cinch hasn't busted or you aren't in the hospital, well, there's only one thing left. You do it all over again for it's twice around for the money. N.C.rdC.C. NCAA Finals New .York, Mar. 24 (U.R) North Carolina State, sliding as easily as a southern drawl, and City College of New York, puff ing like an overloaded subway, moved into the eastern NCAA basketball finals today and will meet tomorrow night for the right to play the western playoff winner for the national cham pionship.
