DURHAM, N. c.. Mar. 6.-1ts
down in black and white that North
Carolina State will meet Duke for
the Southern Conference basket ball
title tonight-but that's not the
story of the selnifinal round. The
story is that the University OF North
Carolina almost played Duke.
To dispense with the facts, Duke,
which almost didn't get in the tour
nament, rolled over Davidson, 53-37,
last night when the Wildcats MADE
only 3 points in the first II minutes
of the second half And States
powerful Wolfpack, touted as the
Nations best team, finally edged the
Tar Heels, $3.50, although their
most valuable player, Dick Dlckey,
was confined to the hospital with
103-degree temperature.
Paradoxically, Coach Tom Scott
of North Carolina hardly would
qualify as a hero if his team had
won. Because the fellow who almost
upset State was John Hooks" Dill
lon. unanimous All-America Selec-

bench warmer for the last two
seasons.
Fans Didn't Like II.
When Scott took over from pres
ent Navy Coach Ben Carnevale last
season, he inherited Dillon. But
soon after the season started Scott
announced Dillon did not fit into
his style Of play and would warm
the bench. Others said the differ
ences were personal, but at any
rate the Carolina folks didn't like it.
The I'VE Want Dillon" chant was
taken up last year at each appear
ance of the Tar Heels. Scott paid
little heed.
Carolina was runnerup to the
conference title in 1947, but lost
to State three times. This year,
through an indifferent season, Dill
lon warmed the bench until Caro-
lima was well in control.
But last night in the bitterly con-
tested semifinal, Scott called on Dill
Ion when State started to run away.
The Wolfpack had an eight-point

ORLANDO, Fla, Mar. 6.-Johnny
Sullivan, who once WINGED under
the most brutal booing ever to roar
out of the terraced humanity at
Griffith Stadium, at the moment is
the Mats regular shortstop and he's
intrigued with the prospect OF win
ming Washington fans over to his
side.
1t was in 1914, when the New
York Yankees invaded Washington
in a late season game at a time
when the Mats were f1oundering
that Sullivan suffered his most dis
NAL baseball day. Everything I
did was wrong" admits Johnny,
land the fans poured it on. Even
the New York players told me they
never had heard anything to equal
the going-over I got.
Sure it hurt, but you get over
those things if you stick around
baseball long enough continued
Sullivan. "At the time, I was ROOM
ing with Joe Kuhel and he helped
bring me out of my mental rut. He
taught me to forget bad play or
even a bad game-that the next
play is the one to think about"
Sullivan's chief competitor for
the shortstop job will be Mark
Christman, steady fielding veteran,
and there's no enmity between them.
In fact, they're constant compan-
ions and roomed together at Col
lege Park, Md, the last month OF
the 1947 season.
IF Mark can beat me out then
he's entitled to the job says Sui
livan, but I'm going to do every
thing I can to stick in the lineup
as a regular. Mark is a wonder
full fellow, but he understands as
we'll as 1 do that friendship ceases
when you're battling for a posi-
ton"
Christman, who was slated to con-
fer with President Clark Griffith
here today and sign his contract,
arrived yesterday with Coach Nick
Altrock and Infielders Eddie Lyons
and Jay Difani. He Endorsed Sui
livan's sentiments, saying, Il can't
blame Mr.. Griffith for giving Sui
livan the inside track on the job
because he's building with young
sters and I'm "a years old, but
Sullivan still has that shortstop job
to win. I'm not handing 1t over to
him"
Sullivan is convinced he hasn't
reached his peak as a player

State had it's troubles all the way.

invitation tournament, 1t would have
been embarrassing to 60 up without
the conference title. When 6-foot-6
Paul Horvath and Warren Cartier
each had four fouls at halftime and
Ed Bartels and Leo Katkaveck three.
Carolina appeared to be in good
challenging position, although 1t
trailed by eight points.
The Tar Heels pulled even several
times in the last half, but State
was the better team in the last five
minutes, with Katkaveck's follow
shot and foul the deciding points.
Horvath scored II points and Kat
kaveck IL. The entire State team
rushed to the floor to congratulate
Dillon at the end of the game.
Davidson led Duke, 1924, at half
time, but the Wildcats went into a
shell in the second half and it was
no contest. Duke is the underdog
again tonight, but the Blue Devils
have been rated thus in their last
five games and won them all. Ben
