Notre Dame, DePaul Win In NCAA Playoffs FORT WAYNE, Ind., UP — De Paul’s Blue Demons beaded today for a payoff game with the na-i---tion’s No. 1 basketball team' and Indiana’s canny coach, Branch McCracken, rated his tournament foes for Friday night as “mighty tough.’’ » , McCracken, whose Hoosier crew won 19 Und lost only three games during the regular season, personally scouted De Paul Tuesday night as the Blue Demons bounced Miami of Ohio out of the NCAA Tournament, 74 to 72, on Ron Feiereisel’s basket with four seconds left. "Those two\ guards really can shoot,’’ McCracken said, referring to Jim Lhmkin, who dropped in 25 points, and Feiereisel, who canned 17. V "That’s a good team,’’ he added. \”As good as the sh-st division in the Big Ten, and that includes Minnesota, Illinois and Michigan State.” \ Notre Dhme won the second qualifying gaane for Chicago’s Fri-day-Saturday NCAA regional with a 72 to 57 decision, about as expected, over Eastern Kentucky. The Maroons played without their leading scorer, Elmer Polson, who had averaged 17.8 points per game, and playmaker Bill Bales. Both were ineligible because they had freshmen competition and were playing their fourth season this year. Still, the Irish had trpuble due to early inability to hit the bucket. Later, the shots began to drop and in one stretch Notre Dame counted 18 points , while holding Eastern Kentucky to four. Notre Dame’s Friday opponent will be Ivy League champion Pennsylvania. Penn Coach Howie Dallmar personally scouted the Irish against Eastern Kentucky. The De Paul-Miami game was the thriller of the regional qualifying doubleheader. Thd Blue Demons. in complete control in the first half, were puzzled by Coach Bill Rohr’s shifted defense, pressing the De, Paul guards close to the center line to break up the attack. in\the last 20 minutes. Miami tied the game four times |n the third period and went- In front twice. In the last 10 minutes Miami set the pace and De Paul battled to tie three times, the last ■coming wih 55 seconds left bo set up Feiereisel’s winning bucket. Exhibition Baseball , New York (A) 2.

■The South Benders and Logansport, one of four ex-state ,chamvpions still running, open Satur(lay’s afternoon session at Purdue, with Logan’s Berries seeking revenge for a 64 to 53 regular season racing. Wallace and Zionsville, stranglers, complete the foursome. South Bend, under the flrst-year tutelage of Elmer McCall and with a fine junior-senior aggregation, 'Will shoot for its first finals berth since 1949. The Behrs’ 22-5 record is the best of the quartet. Tom Schafer, runner-up for the 1952” Indiana amateur gplf crow n, Emery Molnar and Kack Quiggle are three of their stars, the lafet two only juniors. v TheiA phr-game average of 72.6

points in six tourney tests ranks second only to Evansville Central. Logansport, state champ in 1934, lost 12 games | during the season, rqore than any; other semi-finalist. Nevertheless, Keith Showalter’s bpys had fairly easy sailing so far, whipping six foes by an average margin of 17.6 points. The club is built around two seniors—Dave Thomas and Ted Booher. Wallace and Zionsville have two things in common —*both have fine centers and rieithgr has ever marched to the state finals.\Zlonsville, in fact, is sitting on its first regional tourney title in history. i 1 Wallhce, with a 21-6 record, lost only two of 11 conference gained to tie city foe Froebel for the West NIHSC championship.

The Hornets from the Steel City are led by six-foot-five Joe Zimmerman, a senior, who h&d his biggest night Feb. 13 when he bagged 56 points against Valparaiso. Six-foot-four Allen Wharry is Zionsville’s ace in the pivot. Coach Al Rosenthihl’s Eagles, with a 20-5 mark, qualified for the third round by bumping four-time state champions in the Lafayette regional titfe-garne. Albert G. Woiz, farm adviser r or the University of California, says wood will not rot unless it con-‘ taihs moisture in excess .of 20 per of its dry weight. Only exposure to rain or other direct forms of Wetting will boost the moisture content of wood beyond this dan gqrl point. -
