rOTTIt MTOFORD (OXZOON) KAIL TMBTOT Monday. Muck SX 1M1 Malbrook Lsads- --Sard Qyiat' To State (Sag Championship Eugene (U.P.) Lincoln high of Portland, which won iU first state tournament In tho event'! first year, 1919, held its second title Monday thanks to Its auto matic point-netting machine, seven-foot Swede Halbrook. Halbrook scored 51 points, seven more than the entire Cen tral Catholic team, as Lincoln rolled to a 66-44 victory before 7,856 fans in Saturday night's finals. ItVas the third time dur ing the tournament that Hal brook set a one-game individual scoring record. The Lincoln captain also scored a record 166 points dur ing the four-game event and ran his season's total to 1.033 in 27 games. Lincoln's tourney total of 257 was also a new record. Height Too Much Central, rated by many the finest all-around team in the tournament, simply couldn't match Halbrook's height. It was 36-19 Lincoln at halftime and almost a matter of how many points the Cards would run up after that. Cleveland of Portland down ed La Grande's scrappy five, 67 53, for third place. Marshfield took fourth by whipping Univer sity high, 67-44, and Salem beat its old tournament rival, Astor ia, 58-37 for fifth place. Portland dominated four of the all-state team, getting four of the first five berths. Named were Halbrook, Central Catho lic's Bob Altenhofen and John Foster, Jerry Ross of Cleveland and Morris Buckwalter of La Grande. Third Time For Altenhofen it was the third year in a row on the all state five, something accomp lished by only two other men in history Ted Sarpola of Astoria and Glen Sanford of Salem. Second team all staters were Tom Crabtree, Marshfield, Paul Bartholemy, Central Catholic; Jerry Zimmerman, Milwaukie; George Hinkhouse, Scappoose, and Bob Hazel, Salem.

Phone 2-6251 Olympic Tryout Spots At Stake on Tuesday; Broncs Trip Cowboys Seattle, Wash. (U.R) Olym pic tryout berths will be at stake in both ends of the doubleheader here Tuesday night when sur prising St. John's and Santa Clara clash with powerful Illi nois and Kansas in the semi finals of the NCAA basketball tournament The way it shaped up now, Illinois would be favored over St. John's for the Eastern NCAA title and record-breaking Kan sas over Santa Clara for the Western crown. But you won't find many coaches or experts among those gathering here who are willing to make any predictions, in view of what happened to the form sheet in the final round of re gional play on Saturday night. Upset of Year Certainly, no one expected St. John's to oust defending cham pion Kentucky, the nation's No 1 team, by 64-57 at Raleigh, N.C. That ranks as the "upset of the year' 'in the court sport. But it was only a little more surprising than Santa Clara's S6-53 decision over Wyoming at Corvallis, Ore. The other two regional finals followed the form as Illinois ousted Duquesne, 74- 68, at Chicago and Kansas ripped St. Louis, 74-55, at Kansas City. Coach Frank McGuire of St. John was receiving warm praise from his fellow coaches today for the clever "slow down" strat egy he devised to turn the tables on Kentucky, which had beaten his team by 81-40 during the regular season. Possession of Ball McGuire explained that the first time the Redmen had tried to "run with Kentucky," but it didn't work, so this time they played "possession waiting for the 'sure shots' and driving past them." The result was that cen ter Bob Zeke Zawoluk clicked for 32 points, one more than the old tournament record. That Zawoluk performance stood as a new record for about 30 minutes until six-foot nine inch Clyde Lovelette tallied 44 points for Kansas. The St. John s scouts must have had plenty to tell McGuire about five-foot 10-inch Jim Bie dar, the Illini sparkplug, who tallied 14 of his 16 points in the second half to break Duquesne's back. Heavy Choice' Kansas and record - breaker Lovelette loomed a heavy choice against Santa Clara for the other semi-final tomorrow night. Even coach Bob Feerick of Santa Clara admitted that he would be "amazed" if his team should win. But then, the Broncos have astounded the experts twice al ready by upsetting first UCLA and then Wyoming. Feerick pointed out gloomily that the burden of the work against Wyoming was borne by three freshmen and two sophomores, and he called the win by such a green group "unbelievable." Tuesday's games will complete the field for the Olympic try outs. The other six places already have been occupied by La Salle, winner of the National Invita tion Tournament; Springfield State Teachers college of Mis souri, winner of the, NAIB tour nament; and the top four teams in the AAU tournament The Peoria, 111., Caterpillars; The Phillips Oilers, Air Force All Stars and the Fibber McGees- Play in the Olympic tryouts starts Saturday in New York and Kansas City. Seattle (U.R) Coach Bob Fee rick and his skinny-legged won derboys from the University cf Santa Clara invade Seattle Mon day to try to repat their giant killer role against the powerful Kansas Jayhawkers Tuesday in the NCAA basketball finals. They call them the wonder boys for more reasons than one. The coach and the whole San ta Clara team to say nothing of 14,500 spectators are still wondering how they happen to knock out UCLA and Wyoming last Friday and Saturday in Cor vallis. The boys from the little inde pendent Jesuit school in north ern California were given little or no chance to whip UCLA's Pa cific Coast conference champs They confounded the experts by winning by a comfortable 68-59 edge. They were given less chance Saturday night when they went up against the veteran Wyoming Cowboys, the Skyline champs But when the final score was in it was Santa Clara, 56 to 53. Since 1925 Chile has had so cial security laws, the first coun try of the Americas to establish them.

NY Commission Has Twenty on Hoodlum Listing New York (U.R) More than 20 managers and seconds are on the New York State Boxing commission's hoodlum "kick out" list, an employe disclosed Tuesday, as the com'-"'-ed its headquarters from down near the Bowery up i...- .... "heart" of Manhattan. Meanwhile New York Chair man Bob Christenberry was sign ing in Chicago a working agree ment with the Illinois Athletic commission that should help his drive to clean up the sport. The "kick-out" list contains the names of managers and sec onds who are suspected of being hoodlums or having hoodlum connections.

The employe did not reveal any names on the list; but he did say, "it includes some of the most prominent managers." It is the commission's policy not to disclose the names of objection ables unless they do apply for renewals of licenses. OLYMPIC STARS WIN Stowe, Vt.
