IWIIfi 1 Cincinnati Is Upset In Tournament By JOHN GRIFFIN VM Brett International TT»e downfall of top-ranked Cincinnati from the unbeaten ranks and the one-point narrow escapee of Kentucky <and Kansas State stole the basketbal limelight today from the crowning of six new major tournament champions Kansas State, Michigan, Penn State, Louisiana State, Miami of Ohio, and Mississippi State joined the honor roll of holiday carnival champions through victories *niesday night. But Cincinnati’s 69-60 loss to North Carolina State in the semifinal round of the Dixie Classic at Raleigh, N.C., was the top topic that bad ’em buzzing in court circles today along with Kansas State’s 67-66 win ever Colorado in the Big Eight tourney finals and Kentucky’s 76-75 squeaker over Illinois in a non-toumey game. National scoring champion Oscar Robertson tallied 29 points in vain for Cincinnati as the Bearcats suffered their first loss in seven games. Tourney host North Carolina State (8-1), ranked No. 6 nationally, never traded and led by as much as 13 points with eight minutes left before Cincinnati staged a mild comeback. John Richter led State with 26 points but Cincinnati Coach George Smith, calling the loss “no disgrace,” pointed to State’s rebound edge <46-37, as Robertson bagged only eight) as decisive. N. C. State will clash with fourth-ranked Michigan State <6-0i in the Dixie finals tonight. Michigan State handed North Carolina its first loss, 75-58, as jumping Johnny Green scored 20 points and controlled rebounding.* Kentucky, ranked No. 2 nationally, remained unbeaten (10-0) only because a last-second 25-foot shot by Illinois’ Govoner Vaughn rimmed the basket. Illinois almost wiped out a seven-point deficit in the last 44 seconds. Sid Cohen had 23 points for Kentucky and Mannie Jackson 21 for the niini. Kansas State, ranked No. 3 nationally, followed a 32-point performance by six-eight Bob Boozer to the Big Eight tourney title but had to hang onto its one-point kead through the last two minutes. Boozer’s -4 long hook s shot with 2:01 left gave the Wildcats the lead at 67-66 and proved to be the last scone in the ■ game.
