Knicks 70 Play Lakers
For NbA Title After
0usting Syracuse
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, April 9.-The New
York Knickerbockers today were
in the final playoff series of the
National Basketball Association
for the second successive year with
Minneapolis towering Lakers fur
Fnishing the opposition this time.
The Knicks completed the East
ern Division playoffs last night by
eliminating the Syracuse Ma
tionals. 100-93. for their third
victory in the best-of- five series.
The Lakers have been idle since
disposing of the defending Roch-
ester Royals in the Western Di-
vision.
The first Of the best-of-seven
championship series is scheduled
for st. Paul Saturday night with
the second in the same city Sun
day. Then the series shifts back
to New York. st. Paul is the home
court for the Lakers in the play
offs because their Minneapolis
floor is being used by an ice show.
A year ago the Knicks went into
the finals against Rochester, where
they lost in seven games.
In eliminating the Mats last
night, New York chalked up its
23d successive home victory as
Ernie Vandeweghe broke the game
open In the third period with six
points.
That squirt gave the Knicks a
47-39 margin from 40-38 half
time lead and they never relin-
quished the advantage.
The Mats Dolph Shayes was the
high scorer with % points in a
game in which 81 fouls were
called, A against Syracuse. Max
Zaslofsky and Dick MCGUIRE were
the king pins Of the Knicks' at
tack, dropping in 20 and 10 points,
respectively.

Snead went into another room
and when he came out he was
facing Hogan. Sam looked at Ben
ana grinned, and Hogan smiled.
In a couple of hours they were
gcing to be out there swinging for
the Masters title. Both appeared
at loss for words. They are not
fast friends, and have little in
common.
Snead finally picked up two of
Hogan's clubs that he spotted on
a bench. He took a half swing
with one. then the other, and with
a twinkle in his eye and that sly
grin of his he said, boy, they're
sharp" Hogan just smiled.
Sam replaced the sticks on the
bench and walked away. but he
had just turned the corner when
the clubs fell from the bench and
clattered to the floor.
Hogan got up and picked up his
clubs. II hope that's not a sign
of what's going to happen today"
he said. Maybe it was. for Snead

A young woman who strove
nightly through many weeks of
the bowling season to reach a
modest 100 average finally got
there and now she's becoming a
scourge to some of the stars.
A short time back, Irene Ma
litz of the Haje's team in the
Women's District Minor League
drew admiring grins when she
|entered the women's match-game
championship tournament. 1t
seemed that Irene's purpose was
to fill out the field Of an event
she organized, but for any other
reason 1t was no place for a 100
average bowler.
Before bowling out, Mrs. Malitz
eliminated two of the strongest
bowlers in the tournament.
The latest figures of Official
Scorer Edith Christensen on the
District Minor League show Mrs.
MalitZ with an average OF 10l
plus. one of the lowest in the
league. But she has been no bur-
den to the team. which has won
is of its last 18 games and forged
into a title-contending position,
Irene, it seems, is best when the
going is tough.
Wins With Double -header.
Last night she shot a double
header strike in the last box to
win a game from the Greystone
team. If the Greystones fail to
win the title they may trace it to
that bit of pinch bowling. The
Hajes won he match, 81, and al
most scored a sweep over the top
team, which salvaged the second
game in the roll-off of a tie.
A few weeks ago the Greystones
held a five-game lead and seemed
almost a cinch for the pennant.
After last nights defeat they now
are only two games in front of
second-place Northeast with the
Quality and Haje's teams also in
contending positions.

Representative John j. Allen,
jr., of California, who after an un-
successful fishing trip to Chesa-
peake Bay last year blocked the
McCarran Bill, Sal, in the House
District Committee by Joking
about it, now requests that the
bill again be given consideration.
This bill would prohibit haul
seiners from Illegally selling in the
District oversize rockfish caught
in Maryland waters. We hope the
committee will give it considera-
tion and that it may become law,
thereby ending shipments of big
brood-rockfish that are thrown on
the Washington markets. 1t is a
sound conservation measure.
Up to last Sunday, there had
been little sign of channel bass
around the Nags Head-Oregon In
let area. Apparently strong winds
and cold weather have kept the
copperbacks offshore. They should
hit in any day, but not until
coastal waters have cleared some
what and warmer weather and
quieter seas have settled upon the
area.
The Potomac was subsiding and
clearing as this was written and
should be in good condition for
perch fishing in another day or
two, barring further heavy rains.
We believe that as soon as the
water clears the hickory shad will
be striking in the Chain Bridge
area. Like most species, the hick-
.ory shad do not like cold, muddy

Canadiens Gain Finals
As Injured Star Hits
Crowd-Rocking Goal
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

MONTREAL, April 9.-Maurice
(Rocket) Richard. face blood
Smeared, senses reeling from a six
stitch cut over his eye, came up
with a spectacular. crowd-rocking
goal last night and sent Mon
treal's Canadiens into the Stanley
Cup hockey final.
The cold figures that go into
the record books will tell only
that the Canadiens beat the Bos-
ton Bruins, 81; in the seventh
and deciding game of the cup
semifinal.
But the record books lose all
the drama that was packed into
so minutes of q desperately
fought. bruising. solid body
checking game before a jammed
turnout of 1883.
Cut Down in Second Period.
In the second period, with the
score IL, Richard and Leo Labine
Of the Bruins met head on.
Labine's stick caught Richard in
the face and Richard fell to the
ice. out cold.
When he revived he was helped
to the clinic, with a deep cut over
his left eye. The cut was sewed
up and Richard returned to the
Montreal bench still groggy.
In the third period, when both
teams were shorthanded, Richard
went in to break the tie. Billy
Reay added the Canadien's third
goal just before the finish.
The Canadiens now meet De-
troit's Red Wings in the best-of-
seven finals. The first two games
will be played in Montreal tomor-
row and Saturday nights. The
next three games are scheduled
for Detroit.

The Augusta National tourna-
ment is serviced by Pinkerton
Detective Agency men, who aim
to please.
They tell story that Skee Rie-
gel was playing the 18th hole and
his ball came to rest under a small
pine tree. Skee studied the shot
and then remarked jokingly that
he wished some strong man in
the gallery would take care OF
that pine.
Riegel then walked up the fair
way to study the shot, but before
he returned. and before anybody
realized what the fellow was 60

up and with strong hands snapped
off the top of the pine and got it

The prize money for the Mas
ters is guaranteed for $4,000 but
was doubled this year after q
quick look at Sundays crowd.
The reason the committee had
to wait for Sunday is that it takes
$50,000, including the original
$4,000 for prize money, to stage
a Masters tournament. The club
hires $50 extra employees for the
week. When the Augusta National
Club members come to the Mas
tiers they want to watch, not work,
SO all the usual tournament duties
are performed by hired help.
The ticket sellers ran out of
tickets Sunday and after a hurried
decision started selling Saturday
tickets with the corners torn off.
Lew WorSham, who has a good
record in the Masters, overheard
a discussion about the toughness
of the course.
Lewis answer was to wait until
next year when his Oakmont Club
will be host to the National Open.
1t will not be the same course
that Snead burned up in winning
the PGA last summer.
Preparations already are under
way to make Oakmont the feared
course it was in 1885 when Sam
Park won the Open there. And
there's also report that the Open
will become a 90-hole tournament
next year, with 36 holes of quail
flying on the scene before the
championship proper, similar to
the British Open.

Modern Home Developed
From Old Farm House
By Bob Hol.e

ID EMODELING a house is
IL generally an involved
process, particularly If it Is
an old farmhouse situated on
5 acres of weeds, trees and
springs.
The progress pictures on
this page illustrate what can
be done with such a house
and how it was done. Del
Truitt, who made the photos,
bought the property which is
situated in Fairfax County,
Va. in April, 1851. Since then,
he has worked on 1t during
his spare time, doing prac-
tically all the work himself.
Rebuilding and landscaping
can be expensive. But in
this case, the owner was able
to accomplish the desired
result with the expenditure
of only about $500.
The inside Of the house was
torn out, including the plumb
ing. New walls and doors
were built. Old sash windows
were removed and replaced
with a more modern type.
The fireplace was stripped of
its old-fashioned mantel and
refaced. The kitchen went
modern. even up to an auto
matte dishwaSher and a
Dutch-door entrance.
A side porch and a carport
were added. In a swampy
place near the front yard, a
pond was constructed. In
formation on how to do all
these things was obtained
from home planning maga-
zines, items collected from
newspapers and a few Gov.
ernment pamphlets.
