Describes Bell Hop The bell hop, described by Walker as "about 18 years old, six feet tall, and black haired," appeared at 5:30 pan. Thursday at the hotel room shared by Walker and team mate Al Saunders. He bore a glass of orange juice for each "from coach Chuck Osborn." Walked downed his glass immediately. Saunders didn't. Walker began feeling ill "about "seven o'clock." By game time at 7:30 pan., he was suffering from cramps and diarrhea. He was in and out of the game several times, playing only 26 minutes but scoring 27 points. After the game he was nauseated. Despite his absence for 14 minutes. Walker shared star billing in the Braves' triumph with backcourt ace Mike Owens, a redhaired speedball who devastated St. Bonaven ture's vaunted "nervous press" defense. Owens eluded the harrying Bonnie front-line defenders and invariably passed to the "loose man" deep downcourt. The Braves couldn't stop the Stith brothers from topping their 52-point per game aver age with 54 (34 for Tom, 20 for Sam) but the Bonnies petered out' after trailing by only 61-59 with 9:30 remain ing. Admit Poor Play Providence reached the final with a 68-62 win over second - seeded Utah State in a contest both sides admitted was poorly played. The Friars fell into their old habit .of blowing leads, this time 10 points, before five points by Jim Hadnot in the last 2:12 paced the win. Len Wilkens led the Friars with 18 points while Cornell Green and Jerry Schofield had 19 each for Utah State.

(UPI Telephoto) NYU Faces Ohio St. n NCAA Playoffs By HAL WOOD San Francisco -(UPD- Long- short New York University battles sophomore - studded Ohio State and defending champion California takes on the fabled Oscar Robertson and his Cincinnati Bearcats in the semifinals of the NCAA basketball championships tonight. A sell-out crowd of nearly 16,000 will jam the cavernous Cow Palace to watch the elite of the nation's cagers in the chips-down conflicts. California, gunning for its second straight NCAA crown and the San Francisco Bay area's fourth title in six years -is a three-point favorite to whip Cincinnati. And the Buckeyes of Ohio rate six points over the surprising New York University quintet. None Too Optimistic But none of the coaches are as certain of the future as the gamblers. "We came to the West Coast to beat California," said Coach George Smith of Cin cinnati. "That's our job. I hope we can do it." Coach Pete Newell of Cali fornia wouldn't go that far. "We don't under-rate Cin cinnati," said Newell. "We'll have to play our normal game, or a bit above it, to beat them." Neither of the other coaches was too optimistic. "We certainly feel we have a chance against Ohio State," said Lou Rossini of New York. "But we'll have to go on all cylinders. Any time any of our first team fouls out, our chances for victory become dim because we lack speed on the second team." Said Fred Taylor, coach at Ohio State: "I can't venture a guess on how we'll fare against NYU. This is all new and strange to us. We have MAIL TRIBUNE, Mtdford, Of.

Star Faces Law Action Oxford, Miss. (UPD - All America Fullback Charles Flowers of Mississippi today was faced with legal action that could prevent him from playing professional football with the Los Angeles Charg ers. The Tupelo, Miss., law firm of Lumpkin, Holland and Kay filed a motion in federal dis trict court here Thursday call ing for a preliminary injunc tion to prohibit Flowers from playing with any other team than the New York Giants. The motion was made after Flowers had been served with the complaint by a U. S. marshal. Acting on behalf of the Giants, the law firm request ed a hearing here before Fed eral District Judge Claude F. Clayton at 10 a.m. March 25, "or as soon thereafter that counsel can be obtained." Flowers, of Marianna, Ark., has said he wants to play with the Chargers and would not play for the Giants under any circumstances. Nats Might Go to LA Syracuse, N. Y. (UPD A Los Angeles group today was reported interested in buying the Syracuse Nationals of the National Basketball Associa tion and moving the franchise to the West Coast. Emil Colozzi, former vice president and director of the club, said Thursday night he is attempting to get 51 per cent of the stockholders to put the Nats on the market for $300,000. Colozzi blamed poor attend ance at the games in Syracuse as his reason for attempting to get the stockholders' approval to sell the club. . "These people in Syracuse don't want pro basketball," he said, "they want clowns." Colozzi cited a recent Globe trotter game in Syracuse, which attracted 9,040 fans, and Sunday's NBA playoff game with Philadelphia, which drew only 6,018. The move to sell came only a day after Paul Seymour re signed as coach and shortly after the Nats were eliminat ed from the playoffs. Club President Don Biasone, however, was opposed to the shift and said, "let him (Col ozzi) go ahead and try." The 167 stockholders will have a chance to vote on the issue at the annual meeting in Syracuse the third week in May. The shares were report ed worth $175,000. f ; 9 IL-stf mS "Worst roads in the world, but this new Chevy takes all the roughness out!"
