Michigan State And Purdue Are Favored To Win CHICAGO (UP)—Michigan State and Purdue were favored to keep running one-two in the Big Ten basketball race at least through the weekend. Both play at home Saturday night against second division 1 clubs- .... ] The front-running Spartans put ; their lead at slight risk when they 1 host last - place Wisconsin. The Boilermakers entertain ninth I place Minnesota and should en- i counter little trouble in improving I their 6-4 record in conference i play. In addition to bottling up befttqt teams, Wisconsin and Minnesota will have to overcome the notorious home team percentage in the Big Ten. Thus far the ••homers'* have won a whopping 75 per cent. Ohio State, which won its first road game Monday night in beating Indiana, also will have the percentage in its favor Saturday ■ night. The Buckeyes, now 7-5 and a game off the pace, a return match against the*Hoosiers at Columbus, Ohio. lowa, one and a half games out, i is host to eighth-place Illinois, and Northwestern meets Michigan at Ann Arbor in an afternoon TV tilt. George Kline, who bagged 5j j points in his two last games, fig-1 j ures to give Minnesota its most j help against Purdue. Kline has been hitting- at a 23.2 per game 5 average, and along with Don Ohl of Illinois may yet give the ' Hoosiers’ Archie D&s a fair bat- * tie for the individual - crown.

East Chicago Washington Is Rated Tough (Last of four stories on probable team alignment by semistate districts in Indiana’s high school basketball tourney.) By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Press Sports Writer INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — When East Chicago Washington built a new gymnasium a few years ago. its hardwood followers figured it might be the start up again toward Indiana high school basket- , ball fameThey could get their wish next month, for the Senators are loaded and carry one of the best , records among the "elite” into next week’s 48th annual tourney. Coach Johnny Baratto’s West NIHSC titlists No. 7 in the state, take a 16-3 record and an IL game winning streak into their sectional opener against Griffith, and they cannot meet East Chicago Roosevelt, probably their No. 1 foe, until the sectional title clash. The East Chicago sectional winner will have his hands full. Winners from Gary, Michigan City andy Valparaiso will also seek regional laurels, each capable of earning a trip to the Lafyette semi-state. Valpo Is Improved * ■ Michigan City went into the last week of regular-season play with an 11-game winning streak and was favored to grab at least share of the East NIHSC title. The Red Devils, like East Chicago Washington, have two starters 6-4 or better. Valparaiso had one of its best seasons in years and should advance easily from its sectional. The Gary situation will be clarified in a hurry, with the top conI tenders expected to tangle in crucial games Friday night. Barring first-game upsets, it’ll be little Calumet vs Gary Mann and defending sectional and regional champ Gary Roosevelt vs Gary Wirt The latter upset the Panthers Tuesday night. Lafayette, which represented the northwest in the 4-team grand finale the past two years, and Logansport should rule their regional districts. Both are North Central Conference powers and on paper, at least, will show up for the third round. Greencastle “Open” Lafayette, a perennial state tourney threat, has balance and is scrappy in the traditional Mrion Crwley fashion. Logansport enjoyed better than average success under the first-year handling of Jim Jones. The Jones boys and Larry Cart carry most of the load for the Berries. Lafayette should not be challenged seriously by sectional winners from* Fowler, Frankfort and Zionsville. And the same held for Logansport, which expects to be around to entertain foes from Kentland, Knox and Monticello, The Greencastle regional district has that “wide-open” look. The host Tiger Cubs made it to Lafayette last year and could repeat. Top threats appear to be Clinton and Crawfordsville sectional winners. Sectional Tickets At 1 Pleasant Mills Monday i Glen R. Custard, Pleasant Mills principal, announced today that tickets for the Wednesday night session of the sectional tourney will be sold to Pleasant Mills season ticket holders at the school from 9 a.m. Monday until 12 noon.

MIAMI, Fla, (UP)- With Bold Ruler missing from the field be- [ cause of a leg injur/, the Calumet • Farm entry of Iron Liege and Pintor Lea was a strong 1-2 favorite today for the SIOO,OOO added , Widener Handicap Saturday at Hialeah. Bold Ruier, the 1957 “Horse of the Year" who was to make his 1958 debut in the mile and onequarter Widener, was withdrawn Thursday after trainer Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons announced the colt developed a swelling in the left foreleg. Bold Ruler's withdrawal was expected to result in some surprise entries when the entry boot opened this morning, but the Calumet pair, Christopher T. Chenery’s Third Brother, Mrs. Wallace Gilroy’s Oh Johnny, the Brookmeade Stable’s Oligarchy, Mrs. Ada L. Rice’s Hoop Band and the Hasty House Farm’s Mahan were certain starters. Mahan, an English-bred horse who specializes in grass races, was added to the probable field Thursday night when Eddie Arcaro, who was to have the mount on Bold Ruler, wired from Santa Anita that he would take the as- - signment. Fitzsimmons said tha“t after a Tuesday morning spin around the track, Bold Ruler “was kind -of playing” while cooling out and apparently wrenched the left thenFitzsimmons said the leg began swelling slightly that night, but that he did not decide until Thursday to withdraw the horse* from the race. ". ' - Iron Liege, who beat Bold 'Ruler in the Kentucky, Derby, gets the top weight assignment in the realignment. He will carry 125 pounds and jockey Willie Hartack, while stablemate Pinto Lea, who will be handled by Dave Erb, gets in under 'a favorable 116 pounds

Noire Dame Is 98-77 Winner Over New York By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Notre Dame's five “Iron Men" served notice today that they’ll have more than the luck of the Irish going for them in the NCAA Tournament Playing intact until there were only three minutes and 15 seconds left in the game, Notre Dame whipped New York University, 9377, at Madison Square Garden Thursday night to run its season record to 18 victories in 22 games. St. Louis defeated St. John’s of New York, 195-92, in the opener. Break Loose Notre Dame, ranked 13th in the nation, turned in a brilliant performance in its annual visit to New York. The Irish led by only 37-35 early in the second half but broke open the game with a 14-2 burst over a*’four-minute spanl The “Iron Men" — Mike Graney, Tom Hawkins, Bob Devine, Dean Duffy and John McCarthyaccounted for all but six of Notre Dame’s points. Hawkins was high man with 25 points followed by McCarthy with 24. Johnny Bucyk had 27 for NYU which entered the game enteraining hopes of a bid to the National Invitation mentJack Mimlitz scored 33 points to lead St. Louis to its smashing victory over St. John's but the Redmen came off with a consolation prize when they became the sixth team named to the NIT. Baylor Meets Road Block Elgin Baylor’s march toward the college scoring championship encountered something of a road block, meanwhile, when the 64 Seattle star tallied only 23 points in a 78-77 decision over Montana State at Bozeman, Mont. A crowd of 10,250 saw Seattle win the game on Jim Harney’s 35 * foot field goal with nine seconds left to plav. Baylor’s 23 points — his lowest output in weeks — reduced his scoring average to 33.85 points a game. Cincinnati’s Oscar Robertson is in second place with 33.62 and Kansas’ Wilt Chamberlain is third with 31.41. All three are idle tonight. , . .. In other games Thursday night, Utah whipped Denver, Montana crushed New Mexico, 7145, Massachusetts toppled Holy Cross 64-60, Oklahoma upset Oklahoma State, 52-48, and Scuta Carolina edged out Clemson, 6160. ■ ' Top games tonight include Duke vs Maryland, Syracuse vs. Penn State and St. Joseph’s vs. Virginia. — . .
