Pisfons Give Eckman
Western NBA Title in
First Year as Coach
BY the Associofed Press

Charlie Eckman, the rookie
coach who jumped out of the
frying pan and into the fire when
he gave up refereeing to become
a National Basketball Association
coach at Fort Wayne, has scored
in his first season.
Eckman came home with the
bacon yesterday when his Pistons
clinched the Western Division
championship, even though they
lost to Boston, 108-104.
While his old pals among the
referees and rival coaches around
the league whispered wait and
see," Eckman held loose reins
on his club and. watched them
win.
The Pistons, third-place out
fit last season, dethroned the
powerful Minneapolis Lakers,
who were eliminated yesterday
when they lost to Milwaukee.
1OO-98, on their home floor.
Syracuse, which has already
grabbed the Eastern Division
crown, ran up its seventh
straight victory with a 107-1O1
verdict over Philadelphia. The
largest crowd of the season at
acuse-7,116-saw the game
Boston broke a three-game
losing streak to upset the Pistons
and improve it's playoff chances,
which were in decline. The Celts
now stand a game and a-half
ahead of fourth-place Philadel-
phia. Bob Cousy led the way
with 81 points.
The New York KnickS, fighting
to hold second place in the East,

possible that someday he will
realize his goal.
Undecided on College.
An older brother, Pete, played
basketball at Georgetown Prep
a few years ago and also tennis.
He now attends North Carolina
University. Don is undecided
about his choice of a college at
this time, but plans to take a
business administration course
wherever he goes.
Don. along with Bob Digges
of St. Stephens school. Jon
Rickert of St. Adams and a
number of others, will be among
the mainstays of the All-Prep
squad when it takes on the ALL

stands at four games each.
Students tickets may be pur-
chased at all District public,

Canada Beats Russians
For World Hockey Title
BY the Assoeioted Press

KREFELD, Germany. Mar. 7.
The world amateur ice hockey
championship is back in Canada
today and the Russians can be
mighty happy they'll not have to
meet again the Penticton Club
from British Columbia which
blanked them, SO, in the final
game.
Next year the championship
will be decided at the Olympic
Winter Games in Cortina DAM
pezzo, Italy. The winner becomes
both Olympic and world cham
pion. At least six of the Pentic-
ton players are former profess
sionals and thus ineligible for
Olympic competition.
The Canadians went through
the eight-game tournament un-
defeated.
The United States wound up
fourth, one point back of Czecho-
slovakia, but gained one position
on the all-star squad when Don
Rigazio of Cambridge, Mass. was
selected by the coaches as the
No. l goal tender. Canada, with
six, and Russia. with four, domi-
mated the All-Star selections.

NCAA Again Tries
To Reach Workable
Football N Plan

NEW YORK, Mar. IA puz-
zled and harrassed National COL
legiate Athletic Association tele-
vision committee opened a two-
day session today in an effort to
devise a workable TV plan for
the 1855 football season. The
result will be submitted to the
member colleges for approval.
Such a plan was supposed to
have been announced in Chicago
last week. but final action was
postponed.
A suggestion that the delay
was caused by requests from
member colleges or conferences
to reconsider the proposed plan,
parts of which leaked out to the
public in Chicago, were emphat-
ically denied by Walter Byers,
NCAA executive director.
One TV network representa-
tive said the plan under conSid-
Grafton was impossible.
The Big Ten and Pacific
Coast Conferences are known to
be ready to bolt the NCAA if the
plan agreed on is not satisfac-
tory to them. Notre Dame would
go along with them. and the
loss of these schools would be
virtually a death blow to NCAA
regulation of televised football.
if not of it's complete authority
over college football.
The plan under consideration
is supposed to call for seven
Saturdays of Nationwide foot
ball TV, and five of regional
telecasts. Instead of the NCAA
trying to sell a single network
package" deal on a national
basis, each college would be al
lowed to negotiate for the sale
of it's TV rights and all networks
would be permitted to bid. But
no team could appear on Nv
more than once a season.

To Feature Opening
ktBowie "Wednesday
By Joseph B. Kelly

With nearly 1000 thorough
breds quartered at Bowie, Laurel,
Pimlico and other nearby tracks.
horsemen today were eagerly
awaiting the opening Of Mary
lands 68-day spring racing sea-
son which will begin Wednesday
afternoon at Bowie.
AS far as the trainers are con-
cerned the real action starts
early tomorrow when the first
entries will be drawn by John
Turner, jr., Bowie's racing secre-
tary.
Turf fans will be treated to a
stakes attraction the first day
at. Bowie with the initial running
of the $4,000 added Miss Mary
land, a 5la-furlong dash for g.
year -old fillies. This is the first
of eight stakes scheduled for
Bowie's 33-day meeting.
Twenty fillies have been NOM
mated for the Miss Maryland.
Among those expected to go
poStward are Mrs. Ada L. Rice's
Nimble Doll and Ultra Smart;
. Mrs. Harry A. Parr Ills Small

Mrs. Sam Lewin's Wagon Drill;
Mrs. Louis Lazare's Audrey Lee

Supplementing the Miss Mary
land Stakes on the opening day
program is a $4,000 allowance
race which should draw some of
the swifter sprinters.
There will be no 2-year-old
races scheduled during the first
10 days of competition at Bowie.
Turner explains that it was con-
sidered a bit too early to ask the
younger throughbreds to run
four and one-half furlongs.

olds will make their first ap-
pearance March 81, the 18th day
of the meeting, after Turner re-

Don Dell Combines Basketball
And Tennis; Is Master at Both
By Bob Honson

Don Dell. a Junior at Landon
School, has successfully COM
bined two strenuous sports in
his three years at the school.
One of these is basketball and
Don. along with other top play
ers, will be with the All-Preps
when they play the All-Highs in
the ninth annual basketball
game sponsored by the Big
Brothers Club Friday night at
Fort Myer. Proceeds of the game
go toward the athletic fund of
the Jelleff Branch of the Boys
Club of Washington.
The other sport Dell has
undertaken is tennis. and it is
safe to say he has mastered the
game, at least in competition
around this area. He is top
ranked among scholastic tennis
players and sixth-ranked in
mems singles in the District.
Would Lean Toward Tennis.
Participation in the two sports
has given Dell good wrists and
forearms. decided advantage in
swinging a racquet or shooting
a basketball. In the latter sport
he has hit often enough to have
about a 20-point average. But his
ability on the court isn't con-
fined to just shot-making. He
sets up a good many of the
plays and does an outstanding
job on defense.
1T is hard to say which of the
two sports ! like the best" Dell
said. II guess I would lean a bit
toward tennis if I had to choose
between the two. although bas-
ketball is great game"
Both sports are good devel-
opers for wind and building up
the legs. Also, the ref1exes are
helped, particularly in tennis. "
In tennis, the 16-year-old
