 Duquesne, ranked sixth, made it 13 in row by taking it's Pennsyl- vania rival, Waynesburg, 57-48.

 N. c. State, whipped on it's home court Saturday by Lasalle, played without a substitution fin tripping Long Island.
 l DePaul, beaten seven times, came from behind to take St. Johns. The | Chicagoans went ahead at 55-53 midway in the second half and then opened 6O-54 gap that St. Johns was unable to close in the last five minutes.
 Georgia's victory over once mighty Kentucky was perhaps the most startling.

BLACK GOLD I5STIRRIkC
 up CRISIS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18-A-Oil the black gold of the Middle East is stirring up new international cr.sis-this time between the Unit cd States and Britain. Hurried tense talks are being held behind elo-ed doors in Washington a Il London. Feverish whispers of trouble are cchoing throughout the Ara world.
 The Arabian American oil Go, with its fingers in the pot in the Pentagon, the Defense and Inter- for departments, and the big New York investment houses, is moving heaven and earth to force the Brit ish to give up ban on dollar oil
 Aramco and it's pudgy Washing ton lobbyist, Terry Duce, were once powerful enough to delay rec osnit on of Israel for months. Then they sided with Britain; now they arc against Britain.
 The British ban, desperate cf- fort to recoup the economy and save dollars, will cost Aramco and other U. s. oil interests 920,00o barrels of oil daily, now sold in the sterling area This in turn will have repercussions among the Arab states where royalties have kept chieftains in line.
 The threat of cutthroat trade war to drive British oil off the market is grimly voiced by a srokesman for American oil, B. Orchard Lisle, whose oil forum has Teen fierce champion of U. s. M dale Eastern oil. He warns that distress oil thrown on the market at cheap prices would collapse the tishtly balanced British foreign exchange structure.
 Working another line, Lisle warns that U. s. industrial interests will declare a s.tdown strike on Presi- dent Trumans Point Four pro- gram for helping underdeveloped areas unless the State Department gets the gan called off.
 Says Lisle: There is no call for complete sabotage of U. s. nation al interest in the course of Euro pean recovery. Neither banks nor industrial concerns will put one cent into other Point Four pro- jccts if oil industry investments in the Middle East are scuttled in this manner"
 Ironically, three years ago dur ing the big fight over steel for oil lines in the Middle East, Sen. Ken meth Wherry of Nebraska, tn Il chairman of the Senate committee investigating the steel shortage, okayed 10000 tons for a British pipeline. This now permits the British to compete with Aramco.
