Martinez of Paterson, N.J., drew a bye Monday that assured him a title fight, during the unusual drawing ceremony at offices of the Ring magazine. The draw for the three survivors in the tourney had been ordered by the World Championship Boxing Committee. Logart will be favored at about 9-5 if his fight with Akins of St. Louis is held anywhere but -in Virgil's hometown, St. Louis. And Logart's manage) 1 , Eddie Mafuz, declared angrily today, “Logart will never fight him in St. Louis. If Akins wants a hometown fight, he can meet Logart in Havana.'* Mafuz also repeated Monday's declaration that the Cuban must get a guarantee of $40,000, wherever and whenever he fights Akins- Bernie Glickman, Akins' co-pilot, announced that Virgil would accept no smaller guarantee or percentage than Logart gets. • Boxing men believe each will wind up with a guarantee of between $20,000 and $25,000 for their interesting “rubber match." They fought twice in 1955 and each won a decision.

Kansas State Edges Kansas - In Overtime By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Kansas State laid claim to-the No. 1 ranking in college basketball today on the strength of its “We told you so” victory over Wilt Chamberlain and Kansas. With a Capacity crowd of 17,500 on hand at Lawrence, Kan., the Wildcats reversed an early loss to Kansas when they whipped the JayhaWks, 79-75, Monday night in double overtime- Kansas State claimed after that early loss — by 79-65 in the finale of the Big Eight Tournament on Dec. 30 — that illness and bad brehks had cost it the victory. Sound Convincing And last night the Wildcats made their argument sound like something more than sour grapes with a sparkling triumph that gave them a 5-0 slate in Big 'Eight Conference play and left Kansas with a 2-2 mark. It was Kansas’ third loss of the season—but the first suffered with Cham-, berlain in the lineup. Chamberlain, who was sick: when Kansas lost earlier games to Oklahoma State and Oklahoma, was held to 25 points in a splendid double-teaming job by 6-9 Jack Parr and 6-8 Bob Boozer and dropped to third place in the national scoring race. His average now is 31.85 points a game compared with Elgin Baylor’s 32.44 autrage and Oscar Robertson’s 32.35 mark In the Big Ten. Ohio State moved into second place with a 78-70 win over Illinois; Purdue beat Northwestern, 84-72, and Minnesota upset highly - favored Indiana, 69-66. Pittsburgh downed Holy Cross, 79-72, and St. Louis crushed North Texas State. 98-68, in other top games. OSU Takes Fifth Larry Huston and Ken Sidle scored 18 points each as Ohio State scored its fifth win in eight conference games and Illinois dropped its fourth in six games Harvey Austin’s 24 points paced Purdue to its victory over Northwestern and Minnesota held 6-8 Archie Dees to 15 points in springing its upset over Indiana. Don Hennon. fourth - ranking major college scorer, was held to 18 points but teammate J u 1 i a n Pegues tallied 21 as Pittsburgh beat Holy Cross at Worcester, Mass. The lead changed hands a half-dozen times before Pittsburgh went ahead, 61-59, with six minutes left. . 1 In other games, Drake whipped Houston, 77-67, Arkansas defeated Texas Christian, 56-46, Mississippi State downed Tulane, 71-63, Oklahoma overcame Colorado 6853, and Duke beat South Carolina, 61-49.

Yardley, Schayes In Scoring Battle NEW YORK UP) - Any way you look at it, the individual scoring race in the National Basketball Assn has boiled down to a battle between George Yardley of the Detroit Pistons and Dolph Schayes of the Syracuse Nationals.
