FOURTH DOWN BACK TO PUNT At least it looks
like a bit of football as USF's Hal Perry (23) settles to the
floor after going up high to catch this rebound. This all
took place in the NCAA semi-final game between San
Francisco and Colorado at Kansas City, Mo. Colorado
Guard Charlie Mock (5) is at right. The Dens kept their
winning streak intact by downing Colorado, 62-50.
OILERS NAB AAU TOGA
WITH WALSH AS HERO
Denver (U.R) A full scale
.collegiate Invasion of the Na
tional AAU basketball tourna
ment dislodged the National In
dustrial Basketball League's
three time champions, but the
Phillips Oilers killed the Crew
Cut's hopes with two unbeliev
ably well-timed shots.
The Oilers, of Bartlesville,
Okla., probably will name a
gusher after Jim Walsh. On Fri
day night in the NAAU semi
finals, he beat San Francisco's
Olympic Club with a 40-foot set
shot, which he let fly precisely
Monti Cops Miami Open
18 Strokes Under Par
Miami Beach, Fla. U.R) Pro
Eric Monti, whose "vacation"
from movie-land now has paid
eff in his first major tournament
victory, planned today to make
one more tourney appearance
before heading back to Holly
wood. Monti, who teaches divot-digging
to many of the movie stars,
picked up a $2,200 check Sun
day when he captured the $12,
500 Miami Open with a 18-un-der-par
score of 270 for the 72
boles.
That put the Los Angeles pro
two strokes ahead of a fellow
Californian, Bob Rosburg of San
Francisco, and three strokes
ahead of both Sammy Snead of
White Sulphur Springs, W. Va.,
and Shelley Mayfield of Wester
bury, N. Y.
TRABERT LICKS SEIXAS
Miami Beach.' Fla. (U.P.)
Tony Trabert, anxious to regain
the U.S. tennis championship en
route to becoming the "world's
best" player, now has three
straight victories over reigning
U.S. champion Vic Seixas. The
two stars who combined to re
gain the Davis Cup for the
United States in December clash
ed again in the final round of
the Good Neighbor tournament
Sunday and Trabert conquered
in straight sets, 6-4, 8-6, 6-1.

in the last second to break a 51
51 tie.
The Saturday night, in the
finals against Luckett-Nix of
Boulder, Colo., the Oilers found
the score at 64-all, with 18 sec
onds to play. They flipped the
ball to Walsh who again waited
until the timer's finger began to
tighten on the trigger, and can
ned a 45-foot field goal.
The Oilers were seceond-seed-ed
behind the Peoria, 111., Cater
pillars who had won the NAAU
title fo rthree straight years. The
Oilers, however, were this year's
NIBL champions, on the strength
of the steady work of such stars
as Arnold Short and Chuck
Darling.
San Francisco's team was a
collection of West Coast rnllpdo
stars, generalled by Stanford's
won lomsic.
The Luckett-Nix club was no
more, and no less than the eight
seniors of the Colorado Univer
sity team which placed third in
the NCAA finals.
