MedforivJTribune srpdDnsTrs 2 Berths in-NCAA Cage Tournament Yet To Be Filled By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press International The last two berths in the already-begun NCAA major college basketball tournament may be filled tonight - unless those pesky St. Louis Billikens can hand Oscar Robertson and his Cincinnati teammates their seconcj straight upset. Robertson and Co. blew their first chance to wrap up the Missouri Valley confer ence title, and with it an NCAA berth, when they took an 84-66 shellacking from Bradley Saturday night. Now Cincinnati is down to its last game of the regular season and that's at home to night against St. Louis, which will be one of the seeded teams in the National Invita tion Tournament opening in New York on Thursday.- If Cincinnati loses this one, too, it will finish the conference race in a tie with Bradley and force a playoff game between the two on Wednesday at Wichita, Kans. ' Win Means NCAA Berth If Cincinnati wins tonight, the Bearcats qualify for an NCAA berth against Texas Christian Friday night in the Lawrence. Kan., regional. And Bradley, at last eliminated from the league race, would be free to accept the last re maining berth in the 12-team NIT. The other empty NCAA berth will definitely be set tied tonight, because it goes to the winner of the New Mexico State-Arizona State U. game at Las Cruces, N.M These two teams, along with Texas Western, tied for the Border Conference title. New Mexico State eliminated Texas Western, 65-48, in a first play off game Saturday. Tonight's winner goes on to meet Idaho State in an NCAA first-rounder, probably at Pocatello, Idaho, Wednesday. The NCAA tournament ac tually got under way with a single game at Portland, Ore., last Saturday night in which De Paul scored a 57-56 thrill er over Portland. Portland notched two baskets in the last 35 seconds but fell short as Bill Haig led De Paul to victory with 19 points. The Blue Demons thus qualified to meet nationally top-ranked Kansas State at Lawrence Fri day night. Playoffs Clinch Berths Saturday also saw two of the last four NCAA berths clinched, both as a result of playoff games. Dartmouth, defending Ivy League champion, retained that crown by beating Prince ton, 69-68, at New Hayn, Conn., on Rudy La Russo's layup basket just at the final gun. Bowling Green of Ohio captured the Mid-American Conference crown by trounc ing Miami of Ohio, 76-63, at Dayton. College basketball actually will be a four-ring circus this week as the regular season comes to an end with a sprin kling of games and play is on tap in the NCAA major and small colleg'e tournaments, the NIT, and the NAIA small-college tournament. Ron Delany Sets Mark Milwaukee, Wis.- (UPD -Irish miler Ron Delaney and Aus tralian two miler Al Law rence, fresh from world-rec ord breaking performances, feature the finest field ever tonight in the eighth running of the Milwaukee Journal Games. Two other world record holders are in the assemblage of nearly 500, but Delany and Lawrence will get most of the attention. Delany scored the greatest and most popular victory of his career Saturday night in the Knights of Columbus games in New York by win ning his 31st straight indoor mile in world record time of 4:01.4. 8:46.8 Two Mile Lawrence, a black haired little Australian who had trouble "fighting himself into form," ran the two mile in the world record time of 8:46.8. The other record holders are pole vaulters Don Bragg, of Philadelphia, and Bob Gut owski, of the Quantico Ma rines. Bragg has the top in door mark of 15 feet, 9Vi inches, and Gutowski is high est outdoors with 15 feet, 9 inches. They've met eight times this year, and Gutowski has yet to win.

Miles captured the lead from Bill Krause, of Sacra mento, Calif., on the next to the last lap when Krause's 4.5 Maserati blew a tire. Krause managed to limp home in fourth place. Piloting a Porsche Spyder, Miles toured Los Angeles County Fair ground course in 1:44:22 for an average speed of 85.5 miles an hour. He pocketed $4,500 for his efforts.

Ticket sales zoomed after the Golden Bears backed into the Pacific Coast conference championship Friday night and then whacked Oregon State, 55-52, Saturday to prove they are worthy cham pions. Actually Coach Pete Newell's club clinched the crown while idle on Friday as UCLA dumped Washington. Here is the opening lineup for the playoffs: St. Mary's, West Coast Ath letic conference champion vs. the winner of the Border con ference champion and Idaho State game. California, champion vs. Utah, Skyline conference champion. While the California-Utah battle shapes up as a dilly, St. Mary's is going to get the aid of fatigue against the team it plays. Tonight, Arizona State uni versity tangles with New Mexico State at Las Cruces, N.M. After a rest on Tuesday, Idaho State goes south to play the winner either at Las Cru ces or at Tempe, Ariz. That leaves Thursday for traveling for the . ultimate victor - and the club then will take on Jhe strong Gaels.
