Cincinnati Bearcats
Remain Ranked On Top,
Meet Illinois Saturday
NEW YORK 'UPI - Unbeaten
Cincinnati, picked as the nation's
No. 1 team (or the eighth straight
week in the United Press Inter
national major college basketball
ratings, puts its record on the line
Saturday against Illinois in the top
game of the season thus far.
The Bearcats, who survived a
major test last week with a close
win over Bradley, were the unani
mous choice of the 35-man UPI
rating board for the No. 1 spot
for the fifth straight week. It also
marked the eighth straight week
that they had been picked for the
top spot.
Loyola of Chicago, picked sec
ond five consecutive weeks, again
failed to make any headway in its
attempt to supplant the Bearcats
in the No. 1 spot. However, the
Ramblers have an excellent
chance this week when they play
comparatively weak Ohio U. and
Santa Clara. The Ramblers arc
unbeaten through 16 games, while
tlie Bearcats have rolled over 14

Illinois, tlie Big Ten Conference
leader with an overall record of
12-1, was picked third again this
week. A victory over the Bear
cats, the NCAA champions the
last two seasons, would more than
likely catapult the Ulini into either
the No. 1 or 2 positions.
There was considerable juggling

Duke, the Atlantic Coast Confer

Duke and West Virginia tangle
on Saturday in another game in

team is in jeopardy of losing its
grip in conference play. Duke tops

By United Press International
Stanford's double win over
Washington had the experts con
vinced today that the Cards were
the finest basketball team west
of Arizona State.
The Indians, now 12-3 on the
year and 3-0 in the Big Six, were
rated ninth in the latest UPI poll-
Oregon State was No. 11, UCLA
No. 14 and Seattle among the
honorable mentions.
The Arizona State quintet led
all Western squads w ith a nation
al fifth place ranking.
Stanford had dropped out ol
the top 10 by looking miserable
at the Los Angeles Classic tour
nament Die final week of last
year. Since then has come an In
dian split with the tough Oregon
State five and the sweep against
Washington.
The Cards now lead the Big
Six by two full games and appear
to have their best shot at winding
up in the NCAA regional cham
pionships since 1942, when they
went on to win the national title.
But as Howie Dallmar, star of
that 1942 team who now coaches
the Indians, said nervously Mon
day, "It's nine games and more
than 700 miles to Provo, Utah
(where the NCAA regionals will
be held this year).
Action is light this week as se
mestcr finals again cut into the
schedule. In one game Monday
night, Nevada Southern made its
record 13-2 with an 82-74 defeat
of Westminster at Salt Lake. Si
las Slepp of the w inncrs and Gary
Bliss of the losers each meshed
20.
Meanwhile, latest Big Six scor
ing figures showed a tight race
with Gordy Martin of USC in the
lead. He has hit 74 points in four
games for an 18.5 average.
Stanford's Tom Dose (17-6) and
Don Clemetson (16.31 and Wash
ington's Ed Corcll (16.1) and Dale
Easlcy 15.81 are not far behind.
The West Coast Athletic Confer
ence was idle last week so smooth
Steve Gray held his huge lead
The St. Mary's ace has hit 52
points in two games for a 260
average. Pepperdine's Bob War
lick is a distant second with 35
points in two contests for a 17.5
mark.

the game, and despite a veneer of
kidding about the investigations
into gambling activities, they
were perturbed.
"What's come out so far Is ridi
iilous," said Schmidt, "it's all
hearsay. Since it first started,
every news release is the same as
all tlie others. They haven't pin
pointed a tiling. I'd like to have
them come out with something
specific or forget it.
Schmidt was incensed by the
thought of subjecting players to
lie detectors because he felt it
automatically implied guilt.
I'll lake a lie detector (est.
lie specified, "only if everybody
else will that means every play
er on the team, plus all the coach
es and the general manager.
"I don't want my reputation
tarnished. I've spent several years
establishing myself and I take
pride in it. I have a family and
obligations. I don't want them
hurt and I don't want my reputa
tion destroyed by careless accu
sations.
Professional football has be
come so big, there are so many
close finishes and so many upsets
that people are anxious to throw
mud."
He admitted it's conceivable
some players may have bet on
themselves to win.
But," he added, "I don't see
how they can fix a game or shave
poinU. And I have no indication
that it's ever been done. Frankly.
I don't know how one individual
can control it. If he continues to
get beat, no matter what position
he plays, they're going to pull
him out of tliere."
Schmidt pointed to the scores of
Lion games this year as a meter
of the difficulty In controlling re
sults: 12-3, 9 7. 3-0, 17-13.
He said. "You're never thinking
about the point spread. You may
read about it in the newspapers
during the week. But most of
the time I hardly know what tlie
spread is. You can't think. 'We're
favored by 18.' You just go out to
win."
Joe Schmidt felt that the gam
bling investigations will blow over
without sensational revelations.
But that doesn't assuage him.
