IUP1 - So you want a winner in the National Collegiate Athletic Association championship opening here to night, then take the word of: The coach who picks the Uni versity of Cincinnati Bearcats be cause as defending champions "They're tourney - wise. They've got too much experience and balance for the other teams. This is one team that won't choke up under pressure. They aren't ranked No. 1 for nothing." The coach who goes with Duke because "They've got the best pair of forwards in the country in Art Heyman (average 24.9 points per game) and Jeff Mullins (20.41. Besides that, the Blue Devils have height (two at 6-10) and the bench strength. Last but not least, they've got the winning habit with 20 straight, the longest current streak in the NCAA. Loyola Is Quickest The coach who takes Loyola of . Chicago because "there isn't a team in the country that can run with them. I haven't seen the club that can match their quickness and aggressiveness in going after a rebound." The coach who picks Oregon State because "they'll be the sen timental favorite since they're underdogs. When you've got the majority of a crowd of more than 18,000 behind you, it's bound to help. The Beavers are just hitting their stride now with seven wins in a row." More than 700 coaches here are having a ball analyzing the na tional collegiate finals without the slightest worry about the outcome. They were in town for the national coaches convention and the vast majority made Cincinnati, bidding for an unprecedented third straight NCAA title, their choice. Duke meets Loyola in the first game at 7:30 p. m. EST and Cin cinnati and Oregon State tangle at 9:30. Winners advance to the championship game at 9:30 p. m. Saturday, following the consola tion tilt at 7: 15. Four All-Americans Fans were enticed to Freedom Hall by the chance of seeing four first team UPI All-Americans Cincinati's Ron Bonham and Tom Thacker, Loyola's Jerry Harkness and Duke's Heyman. Heyman, who carried the best scoring average into the NCAA summit meeting, was named the player of the year by UPI. Other drawing cards are Mr. Football of 1962, Terry Baker of Oregon State and his seven-foot teammate, Mel Counts. Cincinnati finished atop the UPI ratings where it had been all season. Duke was No. 2, Loy ola No. 4 and Oregon State No. 14. The four teams put together lost only 12 games while winning an even 100. , Slats Gill Warns That OSU Team A Vastly Improved One Hermiston 82-61, Molalla topped Tillamook 39-31 and Marshall of Portland won over Lebanon 69-55. The losers were knocked out of the tourney. Marshall met Molalla at 9:30 a.m., South Salem faced South Eugene at 11 a.m., Medford took on Pendleton at 2 p.m. and Grants Pass went against Milwaukie at 3:15 p.m. in consolation contests today. North Eugene outscored Med ford 16-3 in the final quarter to get its win. Ron Davies scored 19 points and snared 10 rebounds and Bob Craven tallied 13 to pace the winners. Jim Hill with 34 topped Medford. Jon Norgaard and Dave Romp- panen combined for 38 points to lead Astoria over Pendleton. Nor gaard sank 24 and Romppanen hit 14.i For Pendleton, Larry French collected 18. Sandy Holds Lead Sandy led 24-22 at halftime and was in front 37-34 at the end of three quarters in beating Grants Pass, which surprised everyone last year by walking off with the title. Dan Nichols with 18 points and Dale Carpenter with 13 sparked the winners' attack. Carpenter al so collected 13 rebounds and held Grants Pass star center Alan Hutchins to eight points. J i m Pippin paced the losers with 15. Tigard staged a fantastic come back to collect its win against Milwaukie. Milwaukie led 17-9, 30-17 and 38-34 at the quarter stops and was in front at 23-9 once in the second quarter. Bob Lamb's jump shot with 30 seconds left in overtime moved Tigard into a 52-50 lead. Lamb topped the w inners with 20 points. Dave Green had 16 points for Milwaukie. The attendance for Thursday's games was 20,880. It raised the tournament's attendance after three days to 53,040. ft krf i mm mi i m y A I i i i Toppenish, Fallon, Lapwai Gain Indian Tourney Semis By JERKY WAGGONER ito keep the Ducks in the game HIGH STEPPER Lapwai, Idaho's Ed Madsen appears to be doing an Indian War Dance or some such thing during this action against the Chiloquin Red Foxes Thurs day in the first round of the National Indian Basketball Tournament. Perhaps he was doing a war dance, because in the second half he hit 23 points to lead the Nez Perce Nation past the Red Foxes, 75-59. He had 32 points in all. The Red Fox defender is unidentified. LOUISVILLE, Ky. (UPI Ore gon State Coach Slats Gill brought his bustling Beavers into Ken tucky Wednesday for the second time this season, but he warned even before he arrived that his ball club didn't reach the NCAA national finals without improving since last December. The Beavers, who came in es corted by a planeload of noisy fans and a pep band, were the first to arrive of the four teams that will square off in the semi final round of the 25th annual NCAA championships Friday night at Freedom Hall. Cincinnati's defending champs, who will meet Oregon State in the western semifinal Friday night, and Duke and Loyola nf Chicago. the eastern semi-finalists, all were to arrive today. Oregon State came to the blue grass in December to play in the University of Kentucky invitation al, where the Beavers looked promising if a little ragged in losing to West Virginia and beat ing Iowa. Baker Started Late But Oregon State's all - every thing, Terry Baker, had wound up a spectacular football season only a few days before and was play ing with the team for the first time. He performed well enough to make the all-tourney team at that, but even so it took the Bea vers a while to organize around him. Although their seven losses in Providence, Canisius Foes For NIT's Crown Saturday NEW YORK (L'Pll - The cour- age of bantam basketball stars Vinnie Ernst and Pat Turtle set up Saturday's clash between Prov idence and Canisius for the Na tional Invitation Tournament championship. Ernst, a 5-8 playmaker who was named most valuable player in Providence's 1961 NIT title win. gritted his teeth against the pain of a pulled hamstring muscle in his right leg Thursday night as the Friars defeated Marquette. 70-64, in a semifinal encounter. Turtle, 5-11. made his first full effort since breaking his ankle on Feb. 5, and turned in a masterful second half defensive job on Vil lanova's Wally Jones to bring Canisius a 61-46 comeback vie torv. The Providence - Canisius na tionally televised contest is the first meeting between eastern powers for the 1T title since Holy Cross defeated Duqucsne for the crown in 1054. "Vinnie was up half the night because of the pain." said Provi dence coach Joe Mullaney. "But they gave him a shot of novocain before the game and he bore up well under the strain." Ernst scored 12 points for Prov idence, including four free throws that pulled the Friars away just before the final buzzer. He also had five assists. Ray Flynn, whose six-foot height is by no means big among to day's basketball giants, turned in a deadly second half performance with 17 of his 25 pomts. Providence is in for trouble if Turtle guards Flynn the way he covered Jones in the Canisius Villanova game. Jones scored 17 points in Vil lanova's 28-25 halftime lead and netted the first seven for the Wildcats during I lie opening four minutes of tlie second half. But when Tim O'Mara, who was guarding Jones, picked up four personals, coach Bob Mackinnon made the sharpest move of the night by inserting Turtle to take over. "I knew Jones favored h i s right," Turtle said after the game. "If he Rets the first dribble down, you're lost. So I kept forcing him to the left, his weaker side." Tur tle held Jones scoreless over the last 16 minutes. 29 games are more than the other three contenders put together have lost this season, the Beavers have won nine of their last 10, We played very well in the western regional at Provo, Utah," Gill said, "and I think we're on the upswing." Individually, the Beavers arc the most colorful outfit in the tournament. Aside from Baker, certainly one of the all-time great college athletes, they have a seven-foot center in Mel Counts; the nation's second - ranking de cathlon performer in forward Steve Pauly, and three sopho mores who rotate in the lineup. Personal Duel Seen A kev to Oregon State's chances of derailing Cincinnati's try for a third consecutive national cham pionship may be a personal duel between Counts and Bearcat cen ter George Wilson. In a long-distance conversation before leaving Corvallis, Gill ex pressed confidence in his big man, saying, "Counts is not as strong as some, but he has pretty good action." The seven-footer from Coos Bay has averaged 21.2 points and 15.8 rebounds per game this season. No team ever has walked off with a national title after losin; seven ball games, although couple of six - time losers have done it, a fact which seemed to leave Gill and his gang totally unimpressed. Tlie Beavers worked nut their travel kinks on the Bellarmine college floor as soon as they ar rived. Each team is limited to a single one-hour practice on the Freedom Hall floor Thursday aft ernoon.

Littler, Player, Palmer Favored Herald and News Sports Editor CHILOQUIN - The first big upset of the National Indian Tour nament occurred tlie first night of action Thursday night when the Warm Springs Magpies took advantage of big DcMcrle Lytle's fouling out to upset the defending national champion Sprague Riv er Ducks, 880. The Magpies moved into tlie semifinals with Toppenish, Wash ington's Papooses, Fallon, Nevada, and Lapwai. Idaho. Toppenish slaughtered the alternate iloopa Indian All Stars, 104-53, in t h e second afternoon game and the score could have been much high er had tlie first unit been left in the game. Lapwai stopped the Chiloquin Red Foxes, 75-59, and Fallon won by forfeit over Lodge Grass, Montana, when tlie Saints failed to show up. Fallon beat the Carrol Shadley team of Chiloquin in an exhibition, 68-57. Lytle, the big gun for the Ducks. fouled out with 4:11 left in the game and with Die Ducks trailing by only two points, 75-73. His de parture lifted the spirits of Warm Springs and they raced to the win the last four minutes with case. Lytle scored 32 points lor high honors before he left the game. It was a fine team effort by the Magpies and a rewarding one It was tlie first time this season the Magpies had beaten tlie Ducks in several games. The Ducks were defending champions and had lost less than five games in a schedule of over 30 contests. Four of tlie Magpies tallied in double figures. Howard Buas, a new addition to the Warm Springs team, led the Magpies with 25 big points, 10 in tlie last quarter when tlie Magpies rallied. Mike Clements and Norm Redbud each poured in 18 points and Byron Patt had 13. Lytle led the losers w ith 32 while Norman Johns tried MIAMI (UPI) Gene Littler, Gary Player and Arnold Palmer the seigc guns of the golfing tour were ready to make a run at tlie head end of the $50,000 Doral Open golf championship to day after relinquishing the first round lead to the visitors, Pal Harney, who hadn't touched a club in six weeks and gave up the tour to take a club job at Sacramento, Calif., so he could be with his family, played it from memory to take the first round lead with a four-under-par 68. One shot back of him came Glenn Stuart, a 28-year-old assist ant pro from Grand Rapids who admits he was "much better as a basketball player." Stuart, who played at Central Michigan and had a tryout with the Los Angeles Lakers, belied those words with a fine opening 69, three under par. But Littler, the 1961 U.S. Open champion, knocked in a 30-foot putt on the final green Thursday for a two undcr-par 70 while Play er and Palmer were only one more shot away at 71, and ready to make their bid after teeing off in high morning winds for the first round. That wind was rough out there," said Palmer. "Friday, we get a chance at that afternoon period when the wind dies down. Tied at 70 with Littler were with 22 points. Butch Crume was the only other Duck in doubles with 12. The Ducks led most of the sec ond half after a hectic first half which had the lead bouncing back and forth. The Magpies opened up with all guns in tlie fourth period to score 10 straight points and take a 70-65 lead after trail ing by five going into the frame. The Ducks pulled back to within a point at 72-71 on Lytle's shoot ing. The Magpies stretched the lead to 75-71 before Lytle hit again for the two point margin before foul ing out. It was only a matter of time then. The Silver Eagles of Fallon dropped the pick - up team of Carrol Shadley alter a close first half. Larry Manning and Earl Dunn had 14 points each and John Martin 12 for the winners. Ed Case led the losers with 24 points. Francis Reyes netted J4 points for the losers, also. Toppenish looked classy In downing an outclassed Hoopa team. The Papooses, with a tine starting five in the game, tallied 14 points in the first quarter to only eight for tlie All-Stars. Tlie second five played the entire sec ond period with Larry Ramsey leading the charge. The Papooses led at the intermission, 60-17. Toppenish made strictly an of fensive game out of it in the sec ond half by playing little defense Hoopa scored 36 of its 53 points in the last half. Toppenish tallied 44 in the final half. Joe Cleveland, Ramsey, Ron Olney, Dave Benedict and Clay Anderson led the charge ol the heavy brigade. Cleveland was tops with 24 points in hitting 11 of 12 field shots.
