CAGE CHAMPS IN
 SLUMP NOW
By JOE REICHLER


 NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-R-W While such cage teams as Kansas State St. Louis, La Sale, Duquesne and North Carolina were riding the clouds, puzzled patrons of college basketball were asking today What happened to Utah, Georgetown, Temple and California during the past week?" These early season stalwarts had been expected to challenge for national honors.
 Utah, Rocky Mountain champion and winner of the invitation tournament at Madison Square Garden last March, was rated at least as good as last year. The outlook was rosy when the Utes wen four of their first five games But St. Johns of Brooklyn, beaten five straight times, upset Utah, 49-46. Two days later La Sale pasted a 52-46 defeat upon the Utes. After a warmup victory over Westminster of Pennsylvania, Vadal Peterson's dazed crew was scundly thrashed by thrice-beaten Cincinnati 56-49 Saturday night.
 Georgetown fared even worse than Utah. The. Hoyas had won six straight games. On Dec. 23, they. were upset by an invading Santa Clara five and they haven't gotten over the shock yet. Since then they've dropped four more games to Loyola Of New Orleans St. Louis, Louisville and Western Kentucky, the latter coming Fri day night by a 58-37 score.
 Temple won national fame as a team that upset mighty Kentucky two weeks ago. It is the only black mark against the Wildcat records in Il starts this year. But New York University set Temple back with a 64-61 defeat last Tuesday. Then in rapid success ion, Santa Clara and oft-beaten Colorado knocked them off, Color ado's 5O-45 win coming Saturday night
 After winning 10 of it's first l3 starts, California was counted up- on to be a strong contender for Pacific Coast conference honors. The latest victory was a 60-55 win over Oregon State. Then follow cd three successive nosedives, one against Oregon State and two against Washington. After winning 54-51 on Friday, Washington sent the Bears reeling with 5942 set back Saturday.

Some Fish Lore

Did you ever wonder why fish
choose gravel beds instead of sand
flats in which to spawn their eggs?
One reason is that the castings of tho
eggs are so soft that particles Of
sand would puncture them, but tho
pieces of gravel, in proportion to the
eggs, are blunt and will not cut.

reeds and strips of tree bark to bind
things together. In Australasia, the
bark of the cordage tree was for
