BOSTON, April 9 P).-Boston

should be fined the same as Gel
tics Coach Red Auerbach for
their pre-game scuffle before the
two teams game last Saturday
night.
IF Red was fined. Kerner
should be. too" Brown said in
commenting on the announce
ment yesterday that MIA Pres
ident Maurice Podoloff had i'm
posed a $500 levy on Auerbach
for "unbecoming conduct"
Auerbach punched Kerner in
the mouth in a scuffle after the
Boston coach protested that a
basket appeared to be higher
than the regulation 10 feet.
Il can't condone Red for
punching Kerner. Brown said.
But the protest was legitimate
and Kerner had no right being
on the floor. My sources-and
this is not from Red Auerbach-
tell me Kerner's language was
foul and abusive.

The Maryland quarterbacks are

Garry Hopes Of
Celtics Tonight

BOSTON. April 8 (P)-The
Boston Celtics stand at the cross
roads tonight in their National
Basketball Association playof
game with st. Louis.
Boston never has had the lead
in the best-of-seven series played
against the Hawks to date but
has managed to rally twice. The
teams are locked in a 2-2 stand
off.
Bidding for their first cham
pionship in the l1-year history
of the MIA. favored Boston must
make its bid now.
If the Celtics lose tonight in
friendly Boston Garden, they
would be prime candidates for
elimination in st. Louis Thurs
day.
Causy BOunces Back
st. Louis can lose tonight and
be in favorable position to tie
things up again at home.
Hometown fans hope that the
improvement in the play of back
court ace Bob Cousy and rookie
pivot sensation Bill Russell will
assure a triumph.
Cousy, always outstanding as
a play-Setter, had taken a tumble
from his shooting peak since his
February % injury until Sunday
night. Bounding Bob tailed 81
points-including IL field goals
in the teams 1918 victory at
st. Louis.
Russell, 6-foot-10 reboundine
and defensive specialist, appears
to have recovered from a back
ailment which plagued him
through the first three contests
Of the series.
Hawks Are Hustling
Meanwhile, the battling
Hawks mapped plans to ruin the
home showing and capture the
title in quick thrusts tonight
and Thursday.
The Hawks have been doing
the unexpected SO far in their
determined bid to hustle their
way to the top. When the Celtics
demonstrated rebounding supe-
Iriority. st. Louis has answered
with great shooting. And when
the Celts were shooting their
best, the Hawks commanded the
backboards.
In the four games to date,
Boston has a 270-227 edge in re-
bounds.

individual scoring leader with

Irunnerup to Cardozo last year,
again has a strong squad and
should provide the stiffest oppo-
sition.
Eleven schools are entered in
the eight-event meet. Bell,

the only schools not represented.
The events, in order, are the 44O,
2-mile, shot-put, $50, medley, 440
shuttle low hurdle, distance
medley and mile.
I'VE hope to do better in the
440 and $50 than last year."
Coach Marc Jenkins of Cardozo
said. IF we get good results in
those events and the shuttle
hurdles we should be right in
there"
The Clerks were fourth last
year in the 440 and out of con-
tention entirely in the $50. In
the 440 it probably will be Will
liam Pinkney. Herbert Holmes.
Coleman jenkins and Rudolph
Bigsby. The $50 standard-bear-
erS will be Francis Lee, Herman
Gloster, Pinkney and Holmes.
Cardozo also should show well
in the mile and medley. In the
former event. Robert FELTON,,
Jules Lucas, jenkins and BigSby
will run. In the medley, it most
likely will be David Clark, Jasper
Washington, FELTON, and either
Stephen Briscoe or Maurice Nc

The Clerks set three new rec
