punched an olympic official at
the London Olympics In 1908.
Any mention Of the London
Games is certain to recall the
celebrated incident In which the
great Italian runner, Dorando
Pietri, was helped across the finish
line In the marathon and dis
qualified, with American Johnny
Hayes declared the winner.
Yank Remembers II Wen.
But this widely puhlicized drama
contained little of the fire that
marked the 400-meter race in
which Robbins ran. The mara

The controversy over the 400 me-

lasted through four Olympics,
continues TO this day, at least ia

Only Yank survives Of the three

Pif, Spiders Coach,
Likes West Virginia
In SC Cage Tourney
By MerreIl Whittlesey

Mac Pitt of the University of
Richmond is dean Of the South
ern Conference basketball coach
es. and although his Spiders win
not qualify for the champion
ship tournament next month in
Raleigh. he qualities as expert on
what to expect. :.
The gray-haired coach is look
ing forward to attending the
tournament, because for the first
time since North Carolina State
started dominating the conference
five years ago. he believes there's
a good chance for a new cham
pion.
Pitt. whose Spiders were beaten,
65-45. by Maryland last night at
College Park, is partial to big men
and for that reason picks 6-foot-9
Mark Workman and his West Vir-
ginia teammates as the ones most
likely ito upset the Wolfpack.
Amazed by CIV Losses.
'sBut Duke has proved it can
beat State in Raleigh, and William
and Mary beat them on q neutral
court. so there are two more can
didates," Pitt added. "And the
night that George Washington
beat US, it was the classiest team
I've seen this season. When I read
where they lost four games in a
row recently, I couldn't believe it. /"
The Spiders have lost two games
to West Virginia and as result
Pitt is tremendously impressed
with Workman. He points to
Workman's average Of better than
27 points per game, plus his work
OF the backboards.
HE got % rebounds against us
in one game" Mac continued.
"You figure that in an average ball
game there are l40 shots. When
one man gets ~ points and gets
the ball of the board 20 or more
times, he is Of tremendous value.
That's why I have to like West
Virginia"
Mac said he was asked last week
to compare Workman with Dick
Groat of Duke, and at that time
selected Workman as the most
valuable.
Perfect At-Home Record.
Maryland still has perfect re-
cord at home but the Spiders
threw scare into Coach Bud Mil
ikan's team last night.
The Terps now have won Z and
lost 2 in the conference and moved
within a half game of third place
Clemson. But Millikan realizes
his club will have to play sharper
basketball in its next two games
to maintain it's position. Mary
land plays William and Mary at
Williamsburg tomorrow and Duke
at Durham Monday.
The Terps' other conference
games are against the Spiders
and George Washington and
Davidson at home. 1t appears now
that Maryland could lose three
games and still qualify for the
tournament, but it doesn't figure

NEW YORK. Mar. 31.-The
stock market showed a tendency
to move ahead today but 1t was
not clear cut.
The first reaction to Mobiliza-

resignation and President Tru-
mans "shall not run" statement
was one of slipping prices.
But the market began gaining
ground shortly after the weak
opening. At the halfway mark the
tone of the market was a mixture
of gains and losses with the
emphasis on the upside. And some
of the better gamers were back
ing away from their high points.
Activity was fairly good, eSpe-
cially during the advancing period.
Rail stocks and a handful Of
other issues led the way ahead.
Most Of the advances were In
fractions. Here and there. how
ever. gains OF around q point or
two showed up.
Minus signs still we're plentiful.
Especially in the steel group.
United States Steel, Bethlehem,
Republic and Youngstown all were

and union negotiators prepared
to resume their talks.
Among the stronger issues were

The curb was pretty much q
scramble Of gains and losses, with
Ian upward tendency. Oil stocks
were predominant among the
gamers.
On the bond market prices were
mixed and changes narrow.
