SCANDAL SPREADS
 TO COAST

PEORIA, H., Feb 9 -tR-- New York's basketball scandal the worst ever to hit college sports = has caused reverberations on the West Coast.
 Charges in New York that num- Der of college basketball players had taken bribes to fix scores of some games for gamblers prompted two former cage stars of the University 0f San Francisco to reveal they, too, once had been urged to fix games for a price.
 Their statements were backed up by their one- time coach.
 The bribe attempt first was dis closed yesterday by Frank Kuzara, former USF star and now a mem- Der of the semi-pro San Francisco Stewart Chevrolets teams. The Chevrolets were defeated here last night by the Peoria Caterpillar Diesels, 69-67.
 Kuzara said he and Don Lofgran teammates last year, had been of fered $500 each to manipulate the score of last seasons USF-South- ern California game, played in the San Francisco Cow Palace.
 After Kuzara's statement to a reporter, Lofgran and the 1949-5C San Francisco coach, Pete Newell gave questioners similar accounts.
 Lofgran now plays professional basketball with Indianapolis in the National Basketball Association Newell coaches Michigan State col lege.
 San Francisco won the 1949 Ma tional Invitational tournament at New York's Madison Square Gar den. Still a top team, the Dons won 19 and lost seven games.
 Basketball Coach Forrest Two good of the University of Southern California said last night in Los Angeles that he was surprised al the revelation. Tt is too bad there isn't some Federal law which would put these gamblers away for life. ' ne added
