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.
A new attendance record also
was set with 61,882 fans attend
ing the five-day event.

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. None of them now
has a license to manage or sec
ond a fighter in New York state.
However, their licenses have
merely expired, and they have
not applied for renewal as yet.
On the record-card of each of
the "more than 20" suspects in
the commission files in this nota
tion: "Do not renew without a
special hearing."
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.
