Rupp Near
600th at
Kentucky
By FRED DOVN
Kentucky, nearing its 600th
victory under Coach Adolph
Rupp, and three of the na
tion's other top 20 teams see
action tonight in a college
basketball schedule that also
includes three important Big
Ten games.
Kentucky's Wildcats, sur
prised by Vanderbilt last
week, rebounded Saturday
night with a 76-61 win over
Louisiana State and will be
trying to regain still more of
their national prestige tonight
against Tulane. A victory
would move Kentucky into a
second-place tie with Georgia
in the Southeastern confer
ence provided Vanderbilt
beats Mississippi State.
; Kentucky's romp over LSU
increased its season record to
12-1 and marked the 596th
win of Rupp's 29-year career.
Rupp can reach the magic
600-mark by Jan. 29 if the
Wildcats beat their next four
- Southeastern conference foes
"-Tulane, Tennessee, Georgia
Tech and Georgia.

Eagle Point a basketball scare
here Saturday night before
the Eagles prevailed 52 to 50.
Jacksonville, starting with

way. First quarter count was
deadlocked at 11 each. Eagle

Bill Turner, continuing his

total to 62. He fired 32
against Phoenix on Friday.

Vandal Coach Harlan Hodges
throw a towel into the crowd

Dalton flashed his best form
of the season in leading the
Bears both nights. Cal

with a 3-1 loop mark.

clubs should have been set
aside. They were Justice John
M. Harlan, Felix Frankfurter
and Charles E. Whittaker.
Clark said if some of the
anti-monopoly moves that
have been ordered prove "so
severe as to require modifica
tion," the IBC can apply to
the district court later for a
softening of the decree.
The opinion held that the
clubs have monopolized
championship bouts, which
Clark called the "cream of
the boxing business."
He termed this a violation
of the Sherman Antitrust law.
Quints
Southern California split a
pair to drop into a tie with
the Bears at 3-1 and move to
a season mark of 10-4. Oregon
State hung a 61-53 upset on
the Trojans Friday, but Troy
came back for an overtime
73-67 win Saturday over
Washington State.
Meanwhile, UCLA and
Stanford swept their week
end contests to move into a
tie for second at 3-2.
The Cards followed a
smooth 50-36 victory over
Idaho with a stunning 51-49
upset over the toothless
Huskies.
UCLA dropped Washington
State 68-41 and Oregon State
73-62.
UO-OSC Meet
The form book took less
of a beating in the first week
end of West Coast Athletic
conference play.
St. Mary's is clearly the
team to beat after invading
two hostile gyms and bring
ing home the scalps of Loyola
50- 41 and Pepperdine 74-65.
Injured Tom Meschery re
turned in top form and the
Gaels are rolling.
Santa Clara, probably the
Gaels top rival, won its lone
week end tussle with a 60-54
win over USF.
College of Pacific split a
pair, losing to Pepperdine 72
64, but coming back to whip
Loyola 70-57.
On Saturday, USF bounced
back to defeat San Jose State,
51- 46.
