ketball finals.
The Cowboys moved into the
finals Friday night by defeating
Oklahoma City University, 54-
48, while Santa Clara rolled over
UCLA, the Pacific Coast con
ference champion, 68-59.
Wyoming, pre-toumament fa
vorite, had little trouble with
the Oklahoma City team, crip
pled by the loss of two key play

Ken Rose went to work to cut
the lead to six points.
At this point, Wyoming called
time out, changed tactics and
played strict ball control through
the final four and one half min
utes. During this time, Oklahoma
City got hold of the ball only
three times.

had to fight all the way to score
its victory in a see-saw battle
that saw the score tied at 35
35 in the third period.
The turning point came in the
last five minutes of the game
when Jim Young, Santa Clara
star forward who was held to
four points in the first half,
finally found the range and hit
five field goals to put the Bron
cos in front by 11 points.

Miami U.R) Manager Chuck
Dressen of the Brooklyn Dodgers
picked three veterans and two
rookies as his starting pitchers
for the 1952 season and predited
Saturday it would round into the
best five-man staff in the Na
tional league.
He named Preacher Roe, Ralph
Branca, Carl Erskine, Clem La
bine and Chris Van Cuyk as the
hurlers he will call upon in turn
when the season opens April 15.
' "The jobs are theirs to hold,
but they have won the first shot
at them," Dressen said. "Of
course, if they falter I'll put
someone else in the starting ro
tation. But before I do that, I'll
give them every chance in the
world to make good."
Veterans
Roe, Branca and Erskine are
veterans while Labine and Van
Cuyk never have spent a full sea
son with the Dodgers. Roe was
the leading percentage pitcher in
the majors last season with a
record of 22 and 3; Branca won
13 and lost 12 his biggest defeat
coming in the final playoff game
against the Giants while Erskine,
working both as a starter and
relief pitcher, won 16 while los
ing 12.
Labine who was called up
from St. Paul in mid-season, but
then suffered an injury which
prevented him from pitching un

one with the Dodgers. Van Cuyk
spent most of the season at Mon

four.
Van Cuyk, a six-foot, six-inch
left hander, beat out 12 other
candidates for the fifth starting
job, including the highly touted
rookie, John Podres.

that he has everything one needs
to win in the majors," Dressen
said. "He has an over-powering

Insurrection Rumored
About a week ago there was
rumor of insurrection in the east
side camp. Some of the men
from the north end felt that they
could field the best team right
from their own area. Differences
appear settled now. There is
talk that the east siders feel they
can recruit a team from the var
ious ladies' shops that could
easily lick the west side opposi
tion.
Of course the west side. will
have one big advantage the
referee. The arbiter will be the
old favorite, Mail Carrier Virg
Swanson.
But Bill Gates' crew from
west of the tracks has had its
troubles. Last week Ken Ham-
ner of Holland hotel was en
trusted with the team's only ball.
One of the players from Medford
Ice and Storage company
caught the casaba with his
trusty ice pick. Ken unwit
tingly took the ball to Dick
Fanger of OK Rubber Welders.
Dick is a member of the east
side club. The west crew was
afraid for a while to practice
with the ball.
Both sides predict surprise

about town there is some doubt
about the basketball part of
strategy.

The device resembles an ordi

except that at one end is a panel
containing a telephone and a
coin box. The telephone is con

when you want it back, and then
deposit it in a locker designated
by the girl.
Inside the locker door which
is opened automatically by the
operator via a button operated
from her switchboard is a re
