playing mid-season form by setting
II of the Partners down via the

Pack went right to work on the
tall moundsman in the first stanZa,
as Rome Anderson singled, advanc-
ed to second on a passed ball, and
Tailed on Don Taylor's single to
center. They added singletons in
leach of the second, third, and fifth
innings. Don Taylor led the Pack
at bat, getting 2 singles and a
double in 4 trips up, while Will

Is each. Rhodes was best for Chad

new catcher from Williams Hi,
handled the pitches of Dan Will

Whiteville team played bang-up de-
fensive ball. An outstanding feat

almost perfect bunting, with which
they scored their second marker on

College Basketball Season
To End In Grand Flour
ish This Week

NEW YORK, March 23-(P}-The
College basketball season winds up
in a grand flourish this week at
Madison Square Garden.
Monday night Kentucky and Utah
battle for the National Invitation
Tournament championship. On
Tuesday Holy Cross and Oklahoma
tan2le for the NCAA crown Then,
if arrangements go through, the
winners Of these two games will
meet on Thursday night to decide
the mythical National, title. On
Saturday the East. All-Stars will
play the West AI-Stars in a game
=, onsored by the New York Herald
Tribune.
A couple of consolation games
also were on the program. Mon
day night, West Virginia and North
Carolina State meet as a prelimi-
nary to Utah-Kentucky. On Tues
day the first game pairs Texas
against CCNY.@I If Thursdays game
is arranged, the losers of the finals
on Monday and Tuesday probably
will meet in a preliminary.
Kentucky, lucky to escape with a
IS to 81 victory against Long Is
land last Monday in its first tour
namert game after blowing a 49,
point lead in the second half, is
favored to whip Utah. But the way
the Utes came from behind to beat
Duquesne and then upset West
Virginia. Adolph Rupp's Wildcats
cannot become overconfident.
A big lead doesn't seem to mean
much in present day basketball.
This was demonstrated anew
Saturday night as Holy Cross won
the Eastern NCAA title by trounc-
ing CCNY, so to As. at the Garden
while Oklahoma nipped Texas. s.
to "a, to take the Western NCAA
crown at Kansas City.
While the NCAA-NIT playof
game still was shrouded in doubt,
it was learned that the coaches
Of Oklahoma, Holy Cross, Utah and
Kentucky, tentatively have agreed
to take part if such a contest was
scheduled.
No playoh was held last year
when Kentucky won the invitation
tourney and Oklahoma A. & M.
repeated it's NCAA triumph. In 1945
the Aggies followed up their NCAA
sweep by beating Depaul Of Chi
caso, the NIT winner, 52-44 in a
| playoff for the benefit of the Red
Cross.
Thursday appeared to be the
likely date as the Garden has held
it open in case the New York
Rangers made the National Hockey
Leagues Stanley playoffs. The
Rangers failed to make the grade
and the Garden is wide open for
a tenant.
If the game is played it was
believed that the Red Cross would
not be the sponsor but that part
Of the proceeds would be allotted
to- the American Olympic Basket
ball committee to help pay the
expenses for the U. S. team in the
1913 London Oly1npics.

HORSE SHOW SIDELIGHTS

Brown Betty lost the blue ribbon in the Touchdown
and Out class yesterday when she missed the four foot
Jump on the first round, but she made up for it by
clearing 4 feet 6 inches in the run-off for second place.
And she had her own style about how she took the
jumps, too. While the other entries attempted to clear
the bar by the usual squirt and stretch, Brown Betty
surprised and amused spectators by turning sideways
Just as she reached the jump Oike a track star doing
the high Jump. Just as her forelegs cleared the bar,
she swung her hips over, too. And that was no accident
she did it three times in succession. Brown Betty is
owned and was riden by Miss Margaret Skinner of
Myrtle Court stables.
Perhaps one of the most enthusiastic boosters in
the crowd was an unidentified ten-year-od boy who I'M
firing yelled for the horse and rider of his choice. He
also cut short several observers who commented on the
horses by explaining in authoritative tones exactly
what was taking place and why.
We've heard it said that losers in horse shows are
the worse sports" about losing than any others. But
we'll mark one up for the hooks after Yesterdays show
the losers as well as the winners cameout of the
ring smiling.

Although weather conditions to-
