Seven Picked Solid Choices In Regional; INDIANAPOLIS (UP)-Top billing in' Saturday’s Indiana high school basketball regional tourneys goes to seven ’solid” favorites, but practically anything can happen at the nine other sessions. Sixteen of the 64 regional contenders advance to the “Sweet 16” —the semi-state—and next-to-last round ot the 47thannual Hoosier hardwood roundup. It’s the showdown stage to separate the cream from the crop, with the small-town powers battling for survival in a show generally dominated by the city slickers. Unbeaten South Bend Central, with a 24-game winning streak, rates the nod over host Elkhart and the Pierceton-Plytriouth winner at night. »’■ Terre Haute Gerstmeyer, whipped but once all season, has too much muscle for Martinsville and should have it just as easy against either Staunton or Solsberry for the Blooniington title. Otterbein “People’s Choice” Wabash Valley champ Greencastle is the choice at Covington, South Side at Fort Wayne, and state champ Indianapolis Attucks at Butler Fieldhouse here. Lafayette is favored to deal Otterbein, the ranking “people’s choice” which also carries a 24-game unbeaten, string, the death blow, then romp over either Colfax or Thorntown.

North Carolina' West Virginia Win In Tourney By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sports Writer A record-busting scoring spree by Lennie Rosenbluth and a carefree clowning show by Hot Rod Hundley sent North Carolina and West Virginia surging closer today to the only two berths remaining in the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Yale became the 21st team in the 23-team carnival Thursday night when it inherited the Ivy League championship as runnerup Dartmouth lost to Harvard, 69-60. North Carolina, the nation’s No. 1 team, is expected to win the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament and qualify for an NCAA game against ...Yale i£ NWTdfrk next Tuesday. And, led by Rbsenbluth, the Tar Heels easily won their opening ACC game Thursday night, 81-61, over Clemson. Len Score 45 Points Rosenbluth’s 45 points eclipsed a 41-point effort earlier in the day by Grady Wallace, South Carolina's national scoring leader, and set two ACC tourney records—for points in a single game, and 19 baskets in one game. What’s more, the All-American from New York City turned the trick against triple-teaming in the second half after scoring 27 in the first half. Hundley, who was named to the United Press All-America team with Rosenbluth and Wallace earlier this week, was just out for laughs Thursday night. While his teammates romped to a 71-51 victory over Davidson in the Southern Conference Tournament at Richmond, Va., the Hot Rod scorned scoring. For the first time in his college career Hundley didn’t score a basket. He didn’t really try, for he took only six shots and one of those was from behind his back. His four free throws gave him the lowest point total of his career. But Hundley "wowed” a delighted crowd with his antics — dribbling while kneeling, passing off behind his back, and rolling the ball up one arm and down the other. = As a result of Thursday’s action. here are the semi-final pairings Tonight in the two “tourneys for a tourney berth:” Atlantic Coast: North Carolina vs. Wake Forest; South Carolina vs. Maryland Southern: West Virginia vs. Richmond; Washington and Lee vs Virginia Tech. Seattle, Bradley NIT Favorites The National Invitation Tournament in New York announced that it has seeded only two teams in its 12-team field — Seattle (22-2) and Bradley (19-6). It announced the following pairings: March 16: Utah vs. Memphis State; Seton Hall vs. Xavier (Ohio); Dayton vs. St. Peter's; Cincinnati vs. St. Bonaventure. March 18: vs. CincinnatiSt. Bonaventure..winner; Manhattan vs. Utah-Memphis Statfe* winner; March 19: Bradley vs. Seton Hall-Xavier winner; Temple vs. Dayton-St. Peter’s winner. In other leading games Thursday night— NIT-bound Manhattan crushed Wagner, 100-67; NYU beat St. John's, 67-55; and Muhlenberg upset Seton Hall, 76-65. "artmouth College split even in its 1882 football campaign which had an international flavor — beating McGill of Canada, s—o, using American rules one half and Canadian rules the second. Dartmouth then lost to Harvard in its only game against an American opponent. A number of new “highway hotels" now offer convenient luxury accommodiations to week-end skiers and mid-winter tourists in the White Hountains of New Hampshire.

Lisis Profit For Schools In Sectional The eight Adams county high schools will share in $3,064.67, the net profit from the annual sectional tourney, held at the Adams Central gym last week, according to the financial fceport released today by Herman FTantz, Adams Central principal and tourney manager. This represents a decrease from the $3,837.08 profit realized from the 1956 tourney, caused principally by the elimination of one session this year. This session was eliminated when the tourney field was cut to eight teams because of the closing of the Jefferson high school last year. Last week’s tourney was a sellout at the Wednesday night session and for Saturday’s semi-final and final sessions. There were 2.189 tickets at 50 cents each sold for the Wednesday session, and the same number sold at $1 for the Saturday sessions. Thursday night was not a sellout, with 2,009 tickets sold in advance and 54 tickets sold at the gym. Receipts totaled $4,315, as compared to the 19tf receipts of $5,014. Expenditures totaled $835.45, broken down as follows: meals, $240; referees, $240.84; scorers, $12.50; timers, $12.50; help, $145.50; printing, $106.30; incidentals, $12.69; basketball, s2l; janitors. $10; tickets, $32.90; telephone and telegraph, $1.22. This left a first balance of $3,479.55. From this are deducted: $l5O to Adams Central as tourney center school; $133.92 for transportation of teams; SIOO for tourney center high school; leaving a balance of $3,095.63. Os this amount, the IHSAA receives one percent, or $30.96, leaving $3,064.67 for distribution to the eight schools participating. One-half of this balance is divided on a pro rata basis, with each school receiving $191.54. This leaves a final balance of $1,532.35, divided on an enrollment basis, with the return figured at $1.17421 per student, The total distributioft’ to each school, including meals and round trip mileage, is as follows: Adams Central, $456.38; Berne, $492.83: Decatur, $625.32; Decatur Catholic, $367; Geneva, $414.20; Hartford, $317.91; Monmouth, $420.45; Pleasant Mills, $344.50. IBC Convicted Os Antitrust Violation Holds Boxing Clubs In Law Violations

NEW YORK (UP) — The International Boxing Club of New York and its Chicago affiliate and others were found guilty of violating the antitrust laws today by Federal Judge Sylvester J. Ryan. The court held that the boxing clubs, Madison Square Garden and James D. Norris and Arthur MWirtz engaged in a conspiracy which "as a result of their activities acquired power ... to exclude competitors from the promotion of championship .contests in the United States.” The antitrust action was filed by the government in March of 1952 and accused the defendants of conspiring to monopolize interstate and foreign commerce in the promotion of title bouts and the sale of radio, television and motion picture rights. The defendants had moved to dismiss the complaint, claiming that the court here had no jurisdiction and that the government had failed to state a claim on which relief could be granted. . IBC and ’its co-defendants were alleged to have taken part in the promotion of 80 per cent of all championship bouts in this country between Jan. 1, 1949, and May 15, 1953. “The defendants, as promoters of such title fights, derive substantially all of their revenue from the sale of tickets of admission and the sale of radio, television and motion picture rights which are in the control of the promoter,” the judge said. Ryan noted that the combine controlled the heavyweight division since 1949. when Wirtz and Norris entered into an agreement with Joe Louis, then champion. At that time, the Joe Louis Enterprises Inc. agreed to sign the four leading heavyweight contenders. Louis was then to resign his title and assign the four exclusive contracts to a corporation to be formed by Wirtz and Norri§. Under this agreement, Louis was to receive a salary of $15,000 a year; $150,000 in cash, and part of the stock in the newly formed company. n Evergreen cuttings can be taken in winter if they are rooted in a greenhouse. Without greenhouse conditions, the best time to take evergreen cuttings is in July.
