23 Contenders » I Seeking First Regional Title INDIANAPOLIS *UP i -Twentythree of the 64 regional contenders in Indiana’s high school basketball tourney have never made the “Sweet Sixteen,” and if last week’s. results are a criterion, there won’t be many new faces in the semi-state sessions this time. Only at Evansville is the chance for a brand new regional champion good. Host Evansville Lincoln, ranked 10th in the state, takes a 21-1 record against defending regional titlist Princeton, while twice-beaten Dale should make it into the night game at the expense of Lynnville. Princeton, of course, won’t be a pushover for anybody. The cochamps in the Southern Conference finished regular campaigning by winning their last eight starts and carry an 11-game winning streak into the match against the Lions. Toss-Up At Columbus?

Jim Nossett, Princeton's 6-4 senior center, is one of the finest in the state. Lefty Ted Lander had much to do with Lincoln’s glitter* ! ing record. ‘ V Southport’s Cardinals figured to make it interesting at Columbus, where the regional title is up for grabs following Scottsburg’s loss to Madison in the sectional. South* port has an afternoon date with ' strong Madison, and the winner I won't find it easy pickings at 1 night—probably against the Columbus Bulldogs who shook off a good Shelbyville club last weekend. Marion is the only tourney site without a brand-new regional The host Giants are the defending champs and hope to get another crack in the finale at once-beaten Hartford City which defeated them early in the season 66-65. Only Attacks Experienced Indianapolis is the only regional center where three teams shoot for first-time regional honors. But defending state champ Indianapolis Attucks, back in the spotlight after upsetting city foe Tech is a prohibitive favorite over North . Salem and the Elwood-New Palestine afternoon, winner. The latter two are among the six first time sectional champs crowned last Saturday. Also shooting for their first regional titles are Staunton and Solsberry at Bloomington, Jackson Twp. and Southport at Columbus, Richland Twp. and Tangier at Covington, Hammond Noll at East Chicago, Pierceton and Plymouth at Elkhart, Hartford Center at Fort Wayne, Sandborn at Huntingburg, Clarksville Plovidepce and Marengo at Jeffersonville, Noblesville and Kokomo, Colfax at Lafayette, Rensselaer;at Logansport, Winchester at Muncie and Versailles at Rushville.

San Francisco, St. Louis In NCAA Tourney By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sports Writer Defending champion San Francisco and St. Louis barged info the NCAA tournament today and Wilt (The Stilti Chamberlain will try to lift Kansas into the same post-season classic tonight. San Francisco, winner of the NCAA crown for two straight years, earned the right to try for a history-making third straight when it clinched the- California Basketball Assn, championship Tuesday night with a 62-41 romp : over second-place St. Mary’s of ; California. St. Louis, although idle, was '■ crowned champion of the Missouri Valley Conference when runner-up Bradley suffered a 99-91 loss to • Wichita. Bradley, however, remains a leading candidate for a ' berth in the' National Invitation Tournament. Kansas clinch the Big Seven championship,and an NCAA berth 1 if Chamberlain and his mates beat runner-up Kansas State tonight. If Kansas State should-spring an upset, Kansas still can wrap up the. title by winning its last regular season game on Saturday against Colorado. San Francisco (19-6) qualified for a second-round NCAA tourney game at Corvallis, Ore., March 15 against the winner of a firstroander between Idaho State and Texas Western. Bradley is one of four candidates for the two remaining berths in the NIT at Madison Square Garden. Hie others are Utah, Duquesne and St. Joseph’s of Philadelphia. The NIT added the 10th of its 12 teams Tuesday with the selection of Temple (18-7). It will be the Owls’ first appearance in the New York classic since they won the first one back in 1938. In the NCAA, St. Louis goes into a second-round berth with its first game at Dallas, March 15. Its opponent will be the winner of a first-rounder between two “mem-bers-at-large” who have not yet been named. All told, five places remain to be filled in the 23-team NCAA bracket. First-round play in the NCAA. “Small college” tournament was completed Tuesday night, with the winners qualifying for the second round on Saturday.

Chamberlain, Forte Tops On All-Star Team NEW YORK (UP) - Wilt (The Stilt) Chamberlain of Kansas and Chet (The Jet) Forte of Columbia, the tallest and the smallest of the nation’s college basketball stars, were the outstanding choices today on the 1957 United Press AllAmerica team. The three other players honored in a nationwide poll of 281 sports writers and radio and television broadcasters were Lennie Rosenbluth of North Carolina’s top ranked Tarheels; Grady Wallace of South Carolina, the major college scoring leader; and “Hot Rod” Hundley of West Virginia. Chamberlain, the celebrated 7-foot Kansas center, is only the second sophomore ever to win a place on the United Press first All-America team. Tom Gola of LaSalle was so honored in 1953. Hie four other players are seniors. Rosenbluth and Hundley moved up from last season's second team. Chamberlain was the most popular choice on the team, attracting 236 first-team votes and 30 for second. The gangling Jayhawk from Philadelphia thus was named on nearly 95 per cent of the ballots cast. Forte, the amazing 5-foot, 9-inch Columbia backcourt sharpshooter, was not far behind Chamberlain in the voting. The tiny Ivy Leaguer, with 186 first-team votes and 68 for the second team, was mentioned on 90 per cent of the ballots. Rosenbluth and Wallace each was a first or second-team selection of 78 per cent of the voters; Hundley was named on 55 per cent of the ballots cast. Hundley, undoubtedly the most colorful player in this season’s college crop, won the fifth position on the mythical team by a small margin over Elgin Baylor of Seattle. Named to the second team with Baylor were Charlie Tyra of Louisville, Jim Krebs of Southern Methodist, little Garx Thompson of lowa State and Joe Gibbon of Mississippi. The United Press All-America is selected strictly on the votes cast by the writers and broadcasters, with one first-team vote equivalent to two second-team votes. Dees Is Named To 3rd All-Star Team INDIANAPOLIS (ffl — Archie Dees, Indiana University’s highscoring center, made the United Press All-America basketball third team today. Dees was one of seven players i for Hoosier schools to be listed among 114 stars. He was the only one to rank among the 15 men named to the top three teams. The other six received honorable men-. tion. They were Hallie Bryant of Indiana, Joe Campbell of Purdue, Tom Hawkins of Notre Dame, Lamar 1 Lundy of Purdue, Dick Neal of Indiana and John Sfyth of Notre Dame.
