r. RITTnnn - - PAGE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Techs Irish Go To Sixth In Vote By HUGH FULLERTON JR .' NEW YORK (fl Until ona of the five top teams takes a resounding tumble, the race for the top of the college basketball heap looks like . a closed affair, with five "haves' outdistancing a' large group of "have nots." The first five teams in the week ly Associated Press poll remained unchanged this week, although there was one change in their order, as 127 sports writers and broadcasters sent in- ballots. The undefeated (11-0) Kentucky wildcats reamed in the No, 1 spot with first-place votes from 42 of the 127 experts. Their point to tal, on the usual basis of 10 for .first, 9 for second, etc., mounted to 1,108. SECOND Duquesne, In second nlacc celved 30 firsts and 999 points and third-place Indiana 16 firsts and 905 points. Western Kentucky1, running its winning streak to 16 straight games, moved ahead of Oklahoma A&M 'into fourth place, reversing their positions, of a week ago. Western polled 769 points to the AgglCS' 607. I Then came a big drop in the point ratings and, indicative of the quick changes that can take place when one of the leaders Is beaten, Notre Dame was ranked sixth with 221 points. IRISH UP r A week ago ihe Irish collected only a few scattered points in the poll, but Notre Dame handed Holy Cross its first defeat last week. And this, combined with an other wise good record, moved the Irish into the place vacated by the Cru saders. Holy Cross dropped to eighth be- hind Oklahoma City. Other major switches In the rankings saw George Washington, also beaten for the first time, slip from seventh place to 10th and Duke, taking Its fourth , defeat, from ninth to lath.

The Guards have won five straight games without a setback and their closest challengers are two games back nt 3-2 Metier Bros, and Klamath Creamery. Benny Mooro scored 31 points on 13 field goals and five free throws to Jendt-ho Lakers to victory. Lar ry Wills popped in 19 for the Creamery. Ralph Welser collected the same number to help Moore.

Shooting with amazing accuracy, he scored 47 points as the hurrying Hoosiers ran away from Ohio State 94-72 for their sixth straight conference triumph. , OLD MARK . The old Big ten mark of 43 by Iowa's Dick Ives had stood for 10 years. Schlundt's total was 11 above the former Indiana field house mark as he connected on 16 field goals in 27 attempts and on 15 of 17 free throws. Indiana, No. 3 behind Kentucky and Duquesne, was the only mem ber of the nation's top 10 teams in action last night. Three of the second 10 were busy with Mary land, No. 14, whipping Virginia 70 66; Kansas, No. 17, defeating Iowa State 76-61: and Illinois, No. 20, getting beaten by Iowa 79-70. SECONDS Wisconsin made 25 of 30 free throws In defeating Michigan State 87-53 in a Big Ten game.

The, Owls host the Raiders again toniuhl on Hilltop Court in the ssc- ond ol the two-same king's-X ser ies. Tin nlf time IS 8 0 clock. The Owls, starting with a make shift lineup that carried just one regular, center Keith Thompson land he's been an on-ana-onei i, did right well in the early going and built ud a 12-4 lead before the surprised Raiders knew they were in a game. Jerry Overen and Thompson led this earlv Hurry but the Raiders, finally hitting from the field for the first time when Bob Smith scored to bring the count to 6-12, started to' roll and closed the mar gin to 12-15 at the end of the lirst period. FERK UP Strangely enough, the Red Raid ers started to pork up when they lost Leon Kecle, their noi-shoi cent er, with 0:16 gone on the clock. Keele. wno went into me game with an 18.9 average In SOC's 15 names. Iniured his knee in a mid' court mishap when he turned too quickly in an attempt to steal the ball, a doctor called from the crowd thouuht It was torn liga ments. It's, doubtful If Keele will see action in tonight s game. Hal Titus took Keefe's place and, although he did little damage to the Owls the rest of the first half, he and Dick price, a small but dynamic set shot artist, paced the Raiders alter intermission. ADEQUATE ' Charles Oarcia, who with Over- en has seen only Intermittent ac tion this season, turned in an ade quate Job at a guard position. Both he- and Overen played altogether more than three quarters. Forward Ed Schallhorn, who has gathered more splinters than either Overen or Garcia, and guard Alan Cun ningham, who recently lost a starl ing job to Gary Dorn, were the other starters. Dorn sat this one out with a sprained ankle suffered in Friday night's game in Mon- Pierce Sends In Sox Pact By BEN OLAN NEW YORK VP) The Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Cubs each had another big catch in the contract bag today. But Milwaukee slugger Eddie Mathews joined the Increasing group of , dissatisfied major leaguers. Lefty Billy Pierce, who along with Virgil Trucks kept the Chisox in the American League pennant running last season, came to terms for 1954 and "became one of the highest paid pitchers in Uie club's history," according to General Manager rrank Lane. Pierce won 18 games and dropped 12 last year, finished sec ond In earned runs with 40 1-3 scoreless innings. Trucks already Is in the White Sox fold. Slugging Hank Sauer has signed a Cubs' contract and promised to "fight with all I've got" to return to his form of two seasons ago. He slumped to 19 home runs after hitting 37 the pre vious year. Ralph Kiner, the Cubs' other home run threat has signed, Mathews, the National League's home run king last year, hasn't talked turkey with John Quinn, Braves' general manager. "After last season the clubd tried to get me to sign," he explained. "But I wasn't satisfied with what they offered me. I doubt if we'll get together very fast." Besides Sauer, the Cubs also signed outfielder Hal Jeffcoat and rookie inflelder Don Robertson. The Philadelphia Athletics signed five players, lndluding outfielder Ed McGhee and pitcher Bob Cain, recently acquired from Baltimore.
