Sinking 18 field goals and 16 of 16 free throws Yardley bettered the previous season high of 51 points for a single game held by himself and Pettit. Syracuse Stubborn J Despite Yardley’s peak 1 performance the Pistons had all they could do to stave off the Syracuse Nationals, whom they finally downed, 118 -113, as Adolph Schayes, Yardley's nearest competitor for season scoring honors, managed only 21 points. In other games, the New York Knickerbockers snapped a fourgame losing streak in defeating the St. Louis Hawks, 120-116, in the nightcap of a Madison Square Garden doubleheader before 15,138 fans after the Boston Celtics routed the Cincinnati Royals, 107-87. The Philadelphia Warriors survived a Minneapolis rally to gain a 107-103 win over the Lakers in the preview to the Pistons-Nationals game at the Detroit Olympia. Hagan Sets Record St. Louis' loss was its ninth in the last 13 games, but Cliff Hagan ■ eased the situation somewhat by i canning 41 points, 26 of them in the final period, 'to set a new NBA single period record. Willie Naulls paced the Knicks with 35 points. Bob Cousy led the Celtics with 17, points, while Clyde Lovellette scored 20 for the Royals. _Paul_ Arizin, with 32 points, was high scorer in the Philadelphia-Minne-apolis game. H. S.

South Side Os Fort Wayne Is Rated As Tops INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Fort Wayne South, whose 15-2 record is the second best among the Indiana high school basketball powers, today supplanted defending state champion South Bend Central as "top dog” in the United Press coaches' poll. Don Reichert's lofty Archers, pinning their hopes for the state title on a veteran crew, polled 7 of 18 first-place nods from the experts and a total of 159 points, 13 more than the South Benders who slipped to second place. South Side has been in the U.P"Big 10” throughout the season. The Archers were second last week but earlier in the campaign dropped to ninth.

Jeffersonville also was promoted i ! —from 10th to fifth—following its ■one-point victory over IndianapoI lis Attucks, but the latter and * three other teams skidded some- { what. Attucks slipped from fifth to sixth place, Kokomo from sixth to a tie for seventh with Tech, East Chicago Washington from eighth to ninth, and Lafayette also from eighth to 10th. There were no newcomers to the select circle. Garfield polled five firsts but failed to climb to third place by just three votes.
