center Dean Parsons came with

collegiate point.
The big Washington pivot-man
led the scoring with 25 points
in a duel with Oregon's Jim

Loscutoff broke the Pacific

for rebounds by getting his
234th. The old mark of 229 was
set by Chet Noe of Oregon in
1953.
The teams stayed fairly close
during the first half with Oregon

midway in the period. Parsons
put the home team ahead, 18-15,
on field goal and a free throw.
The Huskies stayed ahead until
intermission where they led,

UCLA Sure
Of Tie For
SD Diadem
By UNITED PRESS
The smoke cleared away and
it looked like the UCLA Bruins
are a cinch to win the southern
division basketball crown, and
the right to meet Oregon State
for the Pacific Coast Conference
championship.
The Bruins came from be
hind Friday night to defeat the
University of California, 55-48,
and were assured of at least a
tie in the southern loop when
the second-place Stanford In
dians were dumped by USC,
73-63.
UCLA, which trailed Califor
nia by 11 points at half time, fi
nally bottled up big Bob Mc
Keen and then went on to vic
tory. McKeen took high scoring
honors with 27 points, 20 of
which were scored in the first
half. Willie Naulls topped the
Bruins with 16, followed by
teammate Johnny Moore with
15.
Real Thriller
The Stanford defeat came in
a real thriller. The lead chang
ed hands more than a score of
times during the first three
quarters of the game, with
neither squad able to gain more
them a one-point lead. .
Then terrific shooting by Tro
jan center Roy Irvin pulled USC
from behind late in the second
half. He hit for six field goals
and four out of five free throws
to end up with a total of 22
points and high man honors.
Bill v Bond, Stanford forward,
and Ron Tomsic, the division
scoring leader, each had 16
points.
Swaps Wins
Santa Anita
Arcadia, Calif. (U.R) Rex
C. Ellsworth's Swaps, perhaps
the outstanding California-bred
colt since Your Host, Saturday
captured the $137,500 Santa
Anita derby by a half-length
from Jean's Joe in a driving fin
ish.
The entry of Jean's Joe and
Blue Ruler finished second and
third-
Swaps with the veteran
Johnny Longden riding his
seventh stakes victory of the
meeting drew down top money
of $90,400 for Saturday's bril
liant victory.
Longden kept Swaps close to
the early pace set by his own
stablemate, Bequeath, until the
final turn of the mile and an
eighth race. But there he shot
into a long lead of better than
two lengths and fought off the
closing challenge of Jean's Joe
and -Blue Ruler. - '

Vancouver, Wash. U.R) The
Oregon Frosh defeated Moore's

ketball game here Friday night,
Dave Wanaka with 24 and Paul
Tuchardt with 17 led the Duck
lings in scoring.
ahead at that point, 40-38.
But back came the Huskies
with guard Doyle Perkins pot
ting two long . shots to regain
a lead that was never headed.
Parsons was taken out of the
game with two minutes to go
and the Huskies leading 74-53.
He had just missed the free
throw that would have made
him the fourth Washington play
er in university history ti score
1,000 points in three years of
varsity play.

Over Norkus
By JACK CUDDY
New York (U.R) Ex-heavy
weight champion Ezzard Charles,
somewhat ring-rusty in his latest
comeback start, declared today.
"I'm still after that title, and
I'll be glad to fight either Nino
Valdes or Archie Moore next
They were the two prospec
tive opponents offered as a re
ward for Friday night's lopsided
decision victory over ninth-ranking
Charley Norkus before 5,304
in Madison Square Garden.
Norkus was floored once. His
left eye was nearly closed. And
two front teeth were knocked
out in the eighth round, .along
with his mouthpiece. None of
the three ring officials gave the
prematurely gray-haired ex-Marine
from Port Washington,
N.Y., more than two rounds
one on a foul.
Face Gashed
' Ezzard's next bout must be no
earlier than March 25 because
a two-stitch gash at the corner
of his right eye and- a bruised
left knuckle-bruise had handi
capped him in his first fight
singe last September's knockout
by champion Rocky Marciano
in their second title brawl.
It was a comparatively dull
bout in which 33-year-old Ezzard
and 26-year-old Norkus missed
too many punches. Norkus
fought a one-armed man. He
concentrated on left hooks and
rarely used his right. Charles
used long left hooks, right up
percuts and short, chopping
rights to the face.
The ex-champ displayed some
of his old-time power at the
start of the ninth round, when
he dropped Norkus to his t knees
with a straight right to the chin.
Charley was up at the count
of five, but took the mandatory
eight-count.
