MARCH 24. 1963 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Oregon State Cools Off, Loses To Duke, Cincinnati In NCAA Basketball Finals Bearcat Defense Keeps Terry Baker Scoreless Louisville, Ky. -ItJPD- Duke's Blue Devils, with all-America Art Heyman spearheading a second - half drive, rolled over Oregon State 85-63 Saturday night to capture third place in the NCAA basketball finals, Heyman hooked up in a sec ond half scoring duel with Oregon State's seven foot center, Mel Counts, who out scored him 25 to 22 in the game. Heyman, however, got 16 in the second half and had considerable help from Fred Schmidt and Jeff Mul. lins, while Counts wasn't get tine much assistance from any of his Beaver mates. The victory, scored in a preliminary to the national championship battle between Cincinnati and Loyola of um. cago, carried a little more sig nificance than the usual meaningless consolation game. Had Duke lost, the Atlantic Coast conference to which it belongs would have surrender ed its automatic first round bye in the NCAA Eastern re gionals next year to the Mid dle Atlantic conference. The byes arc awarded to the con ferences with the best NCAA tournament won-lost records, Duke moved easily to a 34- 23 halftime lead over the cold- shooting Beavers who, except for Counts, seemed outclassed in these NCAA champion. ships. The Blue Devils actual ly wrapped it up by outscor ing the West Coast club 16-6 during a three minute span in the second half to seize a sa 37 lead. Duke hit a hot 49.2 per cent from the floor to Oregon State's 28.8 and would have wrapped it up even earlier if it had been able to do a lit tie better than its 21 of 35 from the free throw line. Schmidt was Duke's second leading scorer with 20 points. many of them on feeds and handoffs from Heyman under the basket. Steve Pauly had 12 for Oregon State while football star Terry Baker who was held scoreless by Cincin nati Friday night, netted only seven last night. Oregon State Coach Slats Gill commented "We put so much Into getting here that we didn't have anything left." He added his team's shooting in the tournament except for Counts was the worst in some time. . 9. Of W. la. By Carl Sander We're a long way from the English Channel here In Amer ica, bur something Is happen ing over there that will Interest motorists the world over. Plans are -afoot again toward the real ization of one of the great dreams of European unity. I'm speaking of the proposed tun nel under the Channel linking Dover, England, with Calais, France. In the last century dreamers undertook to build the cross-channel tube, but fears of an invasion of England by rranco cropped trie project be fore it was more than three miles underway. The outlook for peace between Britain and the nations of Western Europe seems rosier now, and a survey is afoot to see how feasihla th thirty-odd mile tunnel will be. Of course, at CARL'S EAST.

LOSE TO BEARCATS Louisville, Ky.-IIM-Cincin- nati advanced to within one victory of an unprecedented third straight N. C. A. A. basketball championship when it routed Oregon State, 80-46, Friday night while Loyola 111. downed Duke, 94 75, to reach last night's title round. The hard-working Beavers never got in front of Cincin nati, but for one brief mo ment as the second half open ed they moved within a single point and gave the tourna ment crowd of 19,153 at Free dom Hall short-lived reason to think an upset was in the making. Leading only, 30-27 at in termission nationally - first- ranked Cincinnati threw the ball away as the second half opened and Frank Peters scored on a layup for Oregon State. Then the Beavers missed their big chance. In the next six minuies oi piay, Cincin nati packed up 16 consecutive points, nine of them on free throws, and the last two on a dunk shot by center George Wilson that made it 46-29. Oregon State survived as long as it did only because seven foot center Mel Counts scored 20 points before he fouled out with 9:45 to play. Wilson's two free throws made the score 56-36 and the rest of the game was a sham bles. Wilson wound up with 24 points, and Ron Bonham and Tom Thacker had 14 each for Cincinnati as Ed Juckcr emp tied his bench with seven minutes remaining.

By SCOTT BAILLIE UPI Sports Writer Scottsdale, Ariz. - (UPS -Don't go away, folks. The Boston Red Sox, fighting to keep attendance from getting any worse, are rushing a new production tentatively named "new deals of 1963:" Last season, the turnouts at Fenway Park dived to a post war low while the Rod Sox wound up in a seventh-place tie with Baltimore, A total of 733,080 paid to watch the Sox' home games, or 117,509 less than the 1061 season. And as Ed Bailey, San Fran cisco Giants' catcher, says of the national pastime, "we're all in this thing to make mon ey." So Vice President and Gen eral Manager Mike Higgins of the Red Sox got busy this winter and brought in five new players while handing six former Bosox their transfers. The swaps centered around building up a right - handed lineup with power. Key men who were acquired are first baseman Dick Stuart and left fielder Roman Mejias. "We haven't had a person on this club in the past s i x or seven years who has hit more than 25 home runs," says Johnny Pesky, who took over the managerial reins from Higgins and is making his debut as a big league pi lot. We had to have some right-handed power." Hopes On Stuart Stuart, who had an unhap py 1962 at Pittsburgh where his average slipped to .228 while he hit 16 homers, is rated as the best bet to re store the glory days of such other Boston crashers as Ted Williams, Vern Stephens and Jimmy Fox. Williams has tabbed Stu art as a potential hitter of 40 homo runs in Fenway Park where the fence running from left-cenlerficld is a good tar get for the right-handers. And Mejias checks in from Houston where ho won vir tually all the team's batting honors. He paced the Colt hitlers with a .288 average and led in home runs with 24 and RBI with 76. But a lot of people had to go in order to bring in this pair along with pitcher Jack Lamabe from Pittsburgh, util ity man Felix Mantilla from the New York Mcts and Dick Williams, another good all purpose man, from Houston. Trades Costly Stuart and Lambe cost the Red Sox pitcher Don Svhwall and catcher Jim Pagliaroni. Pete Runnels, who won his second American league bat ting title for Boston last year, went to the Colts in exchange for Mejias. Pumpsio Green, a vital utility man. Was sent to the New York Mcts along with pitcher Tracy Stallard In the deal for Mantilla. And Hous ton acquired Carroll Hardy while parting with Williams. It was one of the most ac tive trading years for Boston since the days of general man ager Eddie Collins. But will it pay off? "We hope for a first divi sion finish," Pesky says. "No body expects to win a pen nant, you never know. We certainly won't roll over and play dead." Aside from Stuart replacing Runnels at first base, the in field is the same as last sea son's. Frank Malzone, a top third baseman, is at that bag again; Eddie Bressoud, the Red Sox most valuable play er of 1962 in press box bal loting, returns to shortstop; and at second base is Chuck Schilling, who broke his wrist last season just as he was starting to hit. Outfield Set Carl Yastrzemski, who at limes could be the only left handed batter in the order, has been shifted from left field to center. He will be flanked by Mejias in left and Lu Clin ton in right. Clinton batted .294 last season, hitting at a .326 pace after breaking in regularly on June 20. The established starting right - handers among the pitchers are Gene Conley (15 14), Bill Monbouquette (15-13), and Earl Wilson (12-8). Conley had his best season in baseball last year but is a question mark as he will be checking in late from the New York Knickerbockers and has twist ed his ankle in pro basketball. The relief pitching features right handcr Dick R a d a t z whose 9-6 mark and 16 saves made him the American league's top fireman last sea son. Arnie Earlcy (4-5) is Pes ky's left - handed reliever, Another right - hander in the bullpen is Mike Fornieles (3-6) who is seeking a comeback from his poorest season. There is a problem in the catching department. Russ Nixon, a solid veteran, is hurt a lot. Bob Tillman, a .229 bat ter last year, has troubles of his own hitting a curve. Pes ky thinks that Archie Skeen whom he managed at Seattle last year, might take over one of the catching posts. me Red Sox are thinking in terms of a fourth - place finish but may have to settle for less.
