I- 7 r f - r I mm ,-m 1 t(. State, Dons Win NCAA Tourney Bids By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS , Kansas State and San Francis co were sitting pretty in NCAA major college tournament seats today while Southern Methodist has upset the dope by gaining the inside track in a bid for a fourth consecutive Southwest Conference basketball crown. On top of all that, Virginia made the already confusion Atlantic Coast Conference battle even tougher to figure by upsetting Duke, which had won It straight, Verdict Won By Pastrano LONDON (UP) Willie Pas-fa-ano's second fight in England wasn t half as impressive as his first; but the third-ranked heavy weight from New Orleans isn't turning his back on the British Isles. Pastrano scored an unpopular 10-round decision over Brian Lon don Tuesday night before an esti mated 10,000 fans, who booed ref eree Bill Williams' verdict and tossed empty beer cans and coins Into the ring at Harringay Arena. The Louisiana boxer had beaten Dick Richardson of Wales in the ame ring only four months ago, but London turned out to be a much tougher opponent. The son of former British heavyweight champion Jack London traded blows with Pastrano throughout the bout and his followers felt he deserved at least a draw. - London suffered the first knock down of his career ia the fifth round when Pastrano landed a hard right to the body. However, the referee called it a low blow end stopped the fight to warn Pastrano to "keep 'em up." It was the second time Williams had halted the action to admonish Pastrano about using unfair tac tics. In the fourth round, he cau tioned the Yank to "keep your head up" and to "stop butting, TIME OUT HARTACK GETS MOUNT NEW ORLEANS (UP) Jockey ehamDion Willie Hartack has been hired to ride the Willow Brook Farm's Grey Trust in the Louisi ana Derby at the Fair Grounds March 8. Hartack currently is rid ing, at Hialeah Parle 70-68 in triple overtime last night. Kansas State gained its fourth Big Eight title and NCAA berth by whipping Oklahoma 68-51. The Wildcats, ranked No. 1 in the As sociated Press poll, now have won 10 in a row for a 19-1 record. San Francisco, No. 4, didn't have it so easy while building a 22-1 record with a 49-47 decision over St. Mary's (Calif.) that clinched the West Coast Athletic Conference championship and handed the Dons a ticket to their fourth consecutive NCAA shindig, St. Bonaventure and St. John's (N.Y.). both headed to the Nation al Invitation Tournament, padded their records, while Holy Cross passed over thus far by selection committees, upset NCAA-bound Connecticut 92-89 in double over time. New Orleans Loyola, named to the NCAA field yesterday, whipped Memphis State 68-55. S.MU. crossed off as a South west power with the graduation of big Jim Drebs, took the un disputed lead with an expected 89- 73 victory over Texas while Texas A&M was upsetting Texas Tech 79-63. SMU, now 8-4, hit 22 of 39 field goal attempts while building a 50-40 lead at the half. Rick Herrscher led the Mustangs with 28 points. Texas Tech, outscored 17-3 in the last 7:44 after blowing a 13 point lead on its home court, now is 7-5 and tied for second with Rice and Arkansas. All four contenders have two games left. Kansas State. NCAA runner-up in 1951, managed only a 30-28 lead aeainst Oklahoma's man-to-man defense at the half. But the Wild cats hustled 16 points ahead early in the second half as Roy De Witz supplemented his usual fine defensing with three quick field goals. Bob Boozer ana Jack rarr again supplied il-states scoring punch, however, with Boozer counting 23. A disputed Jield goal helped ban Francisco, which finished third in the NCAA championships last year after taking the title in 1955- 56. St. Mary's lea 26-23 at tne half and was still in business un til Gene Brown's field goal sent the Dons ahead to stay late in the game. Home fans stormed the floor and halted play while arguing with officials that Brown had stepped out of bounds before getting off the shot. It was all for nothing. 0SCAH fOUIMV ht . n6HSfJ Aflalin Rated 5, Merrill Favorites "Go fishing! Go fishing! Darn it Dear, a guy needs some relaxation once in a while!" NY Ace Sees Good Season PHOENIX. Ariz. Ml Johnny Antonelli, whose best pitching records were made in even-numbered years, excepts to return to form in a big way wis season ior San Francisco. The 27-year-old southpaw had a dazzling 2.29 earned run average in 1954, his first year witn tne club. He led the Giants to a World Series sweep of the Cleve land Indians and finished with a 21-7 mark, tops in the National League. He dropped to 14-16 in 1955, 20 13 in 1956 and had his poorest sea son last year, 12-18. "I'm ready to hit it good again," ha says. "I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses or alibing but I had lousy luck last season." Antonelli reported to spring training last season after a long siege of flu and was training hard hefore he fully recovered. "Then I hurt my shoulder in one of the first practice games," he said. After he returned to form, he slipped and fell down the stairs at his home. It wasn't until the last month of the season that the pains went away," he said. Antonelli will become a 10-year man in a few months. Manager Bill Rigney expects him again to be the ace of the Giants' staff. John thinks the move to the Pa cific Coast will help the club's morale. The County B League basketball tournament roars into action at 1:30 p.m., Thursday, February 26, on the Oregon Tech maplewood in what promises to be a grana tree for all in which league standings will mean very little. From a statistical standpoint the battle for the title should be be tween Merrill and Malin, however, statistics do not win ball games. Any one of the entrants could very well upset the dope cart and go all the way. Each of the first five ball clubs has won and lost against each other. The pairoffs for the opening day's activity: Thursday 1:30 Bly vs. Paisley 3:30 Merrill vs. Gilchrist 7:30 Chiloquin vs. Sacred Heart 9:30 Malin vs. Bonanza The Malm-Bonanza game will undoubtedly prove to be the tough est scrap of the day with the pos sibility of an upset ever present. The Mustangs, winners of the leaeue's regular play face stiff competition against the fifth place Antlers. Coach Jack McGoldrick's Malin cagers are shooting for their fourth straight county championship. They finished their regular season with a 9-won, 2-lost record during FRATERNAL LEAGUE Yankees, Cards Rave On Rookie Standout Archie's Losing Weight Secret Said Leaking Out LOS ANGELES W Archie Moore, so good at losing weight that he could probably become a jockey by tomorrow afternoon, may have spilled a little of his deepest secret the famous "Australian Diet" formula. And, after looking it over, you get the idea that spilling it is one of the smartest moves you couia make. Al Santoro, onetime sports ed itor of the Los Angeles Examiner, was looking through some Mexico City newspapers when he came cross what purported to be an interview involving Archie and the home economics editor of Ova- eiones. The editor said Archie divulged the manner In which he shed 2V4 pounds in just 48 hours before his World light neavyweignt cnampi- onship fight with Tony Anthony here last year. Archie, of course, had already lost enough weight to sink an average air era it car rier, so getting rid of 21 pounds was about as tough as picking a thread of roast beef out of h i s teeth. Anyway, the home econom ics editor said he told it this way: During the first 24 hours, he had a breakfast of two boiled eggs, two slices of toast and a cup of tea. Hardly a revolution ary repast. For lunch he started with fresh fruit. Nothing stunning there either. But he followed this with a full course dinner, consisting of 12 raw eggs swished around in eight ounces of orange juice. This, by any standard of human ingestion, is different, if only by its sheer bulk. Next day, he cut down at break fast to one boiled egg and o n e Strickland Takes Frosh Point Lead EUGENE Iff! Denny Strickland of Bremerton, Wash., is the new top scorer on the University of Oregon Frosh basketball team Strickland Monday night scored 22 points against Grays Harbor Junior College to run his total to 162 for the season. His Monday night total enables him to surpass Butch Kimpton of Klamath Falls, who has scored 154 points for the Frosh, Idaho Star Top Scorer LOS ANGELES ifl Although he had an off night against Cali fornia. Gary Simmons of Idaho is still running ahead in what looks like a four-way race for the individual scoring title in the Pa cific Coast Conference. Simmons, small for a collegiate basketball player at 5-11, has been piling up points at an average of 22.5 per game. He's scored more than a third of them from the free throw line. His nearest rival, Doug Smart of Washington, has an average of 20.9. Behind Smart are Charlie Franklin of Oregon, at 19.8, and Dave Gambee of Oregon State, at 18.9. Don Mcintosh of Cal and Ken Narson of Oregon State are tied for the fifth position at 13.1 and appear out of the running. Simmons has 293 points, 101 of them from free throws. He was held to only 13 by Cal last Fri day, but scored 30 the following night against Washington. Smart has 272 points, 68 of them from foul shot conversions. He leads the conference in rebounds with 172. Gambee is second with 141 and Hal Duffy of Oregon third with 139. which they totaled 623 points to 478 for their opponents, with Bill Rajnus garnering high point honors. The Bonanza Antlers, coached by Erwin Ellis, ran up the highest score total of the league, 867 points, winning four games and losing seven, while, by the same token they allowed their oppon ents the highest total, 904. Ron Roberts, league highscorer, leads the Antler attack The Merrill Huskies, directed by coach Al Keck to second place in the league standings, should have little trouble in disposing of the Gilchrist Grizzlies. They have no cinch, however as the Gilchrist crew, under the hand of timer Kortemeyer, have improved consid erably and could very well come into their own in the tournament play. Gordon Kuist s Chiloquin ranin- ers, co-holders of third place, are slated the favorites over Jerry Kempf's SHA Trojans but the game will be no runaway as the Panthers seem to have suppea from their early season ratings while the Sacred Heart group has been gaining experience. The Bly Bobcats, largely due to the scoring ability of springy-legged Walter Lee and the able lead ership of Charles Samples, are rated strong favorites over little known Paisley. The Bronco five, an invitational entry in the tour ney, have played only two games against county opponents ana tnese they won from Gilchrist. Friday, the winners of the Thursday games will meet in an evening doubleheader starting at 7:30. Final league standings: (PF in dicates points for, PA indicates points against.)

The New York Yankees, fore u n n e r s of the instructional school, "graduated" four farm hands Tuesday, and as usual Manager Casey Stengel got in a few hundred well chosen words of praise on each. Picked to train with the varsity after catching Stengel's eye were outfielder Deron Johnson, pitch ers Zack Monroe and Johnny James, and catcher Billy John son. Deron Johnson, only 19, im pressed while working out at third base where he is expected to see a lot of action during the training phase ahead. "Look at tne way ne gets me job done out there," Casey beamed. He charges the call and it just seems to run into his hands. You can bet one thing, he's going to get a chance. Deron Johnson moved up to Binehamton in the E a s t e rn League last year after a fine first year in organized bail at Kear ney, in the Class O Nebraska State League in 1956. James was at Richmond in tne International League last year, while Monroe played at Denver in the American Association. Meanwhile, only a couple of miles away in the St. Louis Car dinals training camp at bt. Pe tersburg. General Manager Bing Devine was beating the drums for was with the club last season, and rookie reliever Phil Clark, who won 16 games for Houston in the Texas League last year. Muffett had a 3-2 record in 1957. The Chicago White Sox, who are looking for long ball hitters to back up theur "class pitching staff, think they may have found a good prospect in 18-year-old out fielder John Callison, up from Bakersfield in the Class C Cali fornia League. Callison had Man ager Al Lopez beaming when he belted a couple of 400-foot hom ers during a workout at lampa. Two other rookies, catcher Ca- milo Carreon and first baseman Donald Mincher, also showed Lo pez strong potential, particularly Carreon, who hit two balls over the left field fence at the Sox' training base in Tampa. Elsewhere, the champion Mil waukee Braves cut their unsigned list to 11 when pitcher Juan Pi zarro and outfielder Andy Pafko agreed to terms. The Washington Senators traded second Daseman Milt Boiling to the Cleveland In dians in exchange for pitcher Pete Mesa after signing catcher cunt Courtney. The Kansas City Ath letics signed catcher Hal Smilft, leaving pitcher Virgil Trucks and second baseman Hec Lopez still unsatisfied with terms. The Pittsburgh Pirates an nounced all hands signed but pitcher Roger Osenbaugh. Charley Maxwell agreed to terms wun me Detroit Tigers, completing their signing chores. Willie Mays ot tne San Francisco Giants impressed San Francisco Hosts Pin Meet COLUMBUS, Ohio Wl The Women's International Bowling Congress Tournament will be held in San Francisco this year. It will run from April 17 to May 20. Why so long? Take a look at the number of entrants. A WIBC official said here there were 2,587 teams en tered in the tournament, as well as 4,043 doubles and 8,086 singles entrants. They will come from 36 states, Canada, Alaska and Ha waii. They will compete for $87,231 in prizes. Bv THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Orant Tuesday won its first undisputed Portland League bas ketball title since 1926 oy downing Wilson 78-45. Grant already had clinched a state tournament berth. Three other Portland teams continued in the running for the league's two remaining tourney spots. The powerful want team, unde feated in 20 games this season, helped support its No. 3 position in the Associated Press Poll by romping to victory Tuesday. The only other team in tne poll's top 10 that saw action Tues day was Roosevelt of Portland. And the seventh-ranked Teddies kept in contention for a tourney berth by downing Benson n-m.

About the only thing that can be deduced from the Mexico City story is that Archie mixes his eggs and orange juice at the ratio of three to every two ounces. This may not provide substan tial assistance to his adversaries, but it's more than has been known previously about his diet.
