Bartlesville (Phillips 66) top ped the ambitions of Oakland, Calif., (Bittners) 62-41, in the Saturday night finals of the AAU basketball championships in Denver and there was no doubt as to what club was boss.

In the opening game the Den ver Nuggets waltzed away with a 68-36 win over Seattle (Alpine Dairy) in a contest for third place.
