Hot fine tallied a game total of seven points, while Hollingsworth hit for six before fouling out of the con test with 19:16 remaining in the second half. At halftime. Hoffine had four points and Hollingsworth six. Southern Oregon fans had hopes of a revival as the second half opened, but with Paul Hatcher hit ting two consecutive field goals.

In the final three minutes, SOC closed the count to the final 27 points against Tech's reserves. FOSTER FULLED Palmberg pulled the point-producing Foster out of the game with 9:08 left to play, and Fischer came out just a few seconds later as the Owls made good use of their tench. following Foster's 22 point hon ors came Fischer with 17, Whit man added 12 points for the Owls. Chuck Crandall led the losers with eight points, when none of the Rai ders chipped into the double figure scoring column. OTI outshot their visitors from the field, .393 to .276 as the Owls hit 26 of 66 and SOC tallied on 13 of 47 tries.

Tlie Greater New York Assn. is the new name of the New York racing associations. Nashua Faces Top Test By GAYLE TALBOT MIAMI IPi Those who are shop ping around for a horse to beat Nashua in the Widencr Handicap a week from Saturday are tipped herewith that they might do much worse than take a flyer on a strap ping Australian visitor named Prince Morvi, who will carry only 118 pounds In the $100,000-added event, or nine fewer than Nashua will be asked to tote, counting Eddie Arcaro. It quite probably is a terrible tip, but It's the one we got from a number of sources when we asked if the golden horse might Just possibly run into some unex pected opposition in his 1956 debut as a 4-year-old. Actually, it is a bit difficult to make out a cn.se for the big animal from Down Un der, a full-grown 6-year-old. but they say you'll never get anywhere around a race track unless you're willing to listen once In awhile. As you might have read in re cent months, Prince Morvi was flown to this country last Novem ber after he had won several of his homeland's most important stakes, including the Victorian Derby at Melbourne. The Aussics consider him a whopper of a horse, and so, evidently, did Prank Rand, the American shoe magnate who brought him over here on lease and is listed as his owner. We have not seen it set down whether Mr. Rand, before he bought Prince Morvl's expensive air ticket, was told that they run all their big races in Australia on grass. Also, that they run at least some of them from left to right, as in England. If net, he has had plenty of time to find it out since the animal's arrival. At any rate, W. C. r Woody) Stephens, who was put In charge of preparing Prince Morvi, has been running the horse both ways on Hialcah's turf course and on its main track, which might be described, Just from looking at it, as a deep loam. The Widener is run on the latter. And. we are told, the other horsemen around Hialeah. who have been watching the invader closely, believe he is going to prove Just as much horse on our dirt as he was on his own country's grass.

Chances Slim For Patterson NEW YORK 141 While his price goes up, up, up, Floyd Patterson's chances ol getting a fight today were going down, down, down. And that means any kind of a fight not just with heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano. Patterson's manager Cus D'Amato. who has been feuding with the International Boxing Club, announced that he wanted $50,000 to match his man against Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson. Countered Harry Markson, man aging director of the IBC: "What promoter can guarantee even a Patterson (admittedly a hot draw. ing card) $50,000. That amounts to 30 per cent of a $150,000 net gate Who is drawing that kind of money lor a nontltle fight In these days of television? ' D'Amato. if he is serious about leading Patterson to a title bout with Mnrciano, Is getting himself more and more entangled on the ropes. He is trying to buck the IBC, which has strings on virtually the entire heavyweight division with the exception of Marciano. The chumpiop.'s manager, Al Weill, broke with the IBC a couple of months back, but even he doesn't want D'Amato. "You've got to earn a heavy weight title fight," said Weill. "What has Patterson been doing? If he wants to get a heavyweight title fight, the public must want him. The only way for him to do that Is to knock off some names. D'Amato has one ally. He Is Jack Hurley of Seattle, the some times manaeer, sometimes pro moter. He said last night that he would like to handle the promo tions of Patterson's future fights and that he'd be Interested in lining one up lor the crown with Marciano.
