Indiana Wins NCAA Title By One-Point Win ’ KANSAS CITY, Mo. UP — In the end it was a single free throw, tossed calmly through- the hoop with only 27 seconds to play, that told the tale in the “story book” basketball game. ' The mighty one-pointer, chalked up by veteran Bob Leonard, brought Indiana its second NCAA basketball championship Wednesday nigjht with, a 69-6$ triumph. And it smashed' the hopes of Cinderella Kansas for “jurit ope more Kansas, the team that was supposed tri be merely a ruin after losing four members of the teairi tnat won the national title last year, had confounded the experts by driving to a tie score, the 15th tie of the gained with a minute to go. Then Leonard, the six-foot, threeinch ace who usually is Indiana’s playmaker, got the biggejst point in the history of this tofirney to put the hot-shot Hoosiers ahead. Larisas got the ball, drove downcourt for one last shot—a line throw by Jerry Alberts. The Jayhawks had climbed to that; moment on a ladder of “miracles”^—winning\the Big Seven title, the Manhattan, Kans., regionals, rind the semi-final against Wash ihgton. But this lasl, “miracle” didn’t happen. Alberts’ shot wasn’t even close arid Indiana had the game and the national crown. Thus did the Hoosiers, in the
