Tom Mown and their failure to connect from the otiUKtc nprllcd defeat. The nine-point difference however, was not the indicator of the cloaenrsa of the game. Both trama struggled nip and tuck, throughout the game with the exception of ,the last minute, when "anxiety" fouls gave Hartford a tagger margin. Baker Manages 27 Senior Don Baker led all scorers with 27 points as he wax the only Commodore who could hit anything nt all. Baker was hurried on too many shots and did not come up with a good shooting percentage He did play his best floor game of the season, rebounding, setting up blocks and containing his man. Hartford’s Moser picked up the slack for the injured Phil Hoover and tallied X He got a little help, especially from Phil Habegger. who netted seven of his nine points in the crucial fourth period. Little Al Grogg played a good harassing game on the Commodores Baker [ as the local squad failed to pick him off on any attempted screens He also chipped in seven points. Officiating Net The Best Rough-housing broke out in the early part of the fourth period, but fortunately no one got hurt. In, Hartford’s close-quartered gym. this bordered on the miraculous. The officiating, which showed no favoritism, left much to be de--sired. Mainly, consistency in the calls was lacking. Both teams lost equally from this factor. After spotting the Gorillas a 5-2 lead early in the contest, the Commodores came back to take the lead at 8-7 in the first quarter, but as the quarter ended. Moser nettl'd one from underneath to put the score at 9-8, Hartford, and they were never headed after that. De-F catur came within three points several times but could never get over that hump.

NCAA Rejects Coaches'Plea On Substitutes NEW YORK <UPU — The nstlnn's college football enarhe* were thrown for a heavy loss today in their all-out campaign to bring back the two-platoon syatrm. Any hope that tww-platoon football might return this year has been practically eliminated by the National Colegtate Athletic Association. which voted to retain she present substitution rule. The NCAA’s action, which virtually amounts to a mandate, certainly will Influence the football rules committee at Its thrcc-day i sessions in Miami Beach. Fla., beginning Monday, and the general belief Is that the current substitution code will keep tor at least another year. The nation’s coaches voted overwhelmingly last Tuesday to urge the rules committee to bring back platoon football which the NCAA banned in 1953. But NCAA officials, by a majority of 2 ot 1. voted against unlimited substitutions again Friday and the strong Eastern College Athletic Conference strongly supported the recommendation. NCAA delegates concluded their 54th annual convention Friday but before they did. they took the following action: ! -Gave their stamp of approval to a new “Gotham Bowl'* football game to be played in New York s Yankee Stadium next Dec. 10 or 17. —Defeated a move to limit the age of foreign athletes competing for American universities because restrictions would brand the Üb. as discriminatory “all over the i world,’’ -Ruled that U. S. team events aeainst the University of Alaska, the cases of the University of Hawaii and Puerto Rico, shall not be considered as contests , m computing maximum playing schedules. —Re-elected Herbert _J. Dorricott of Western State College of Colorado as NCAA president and Gen P. L. Sadler of Lehigh as secretary treasurer for one-year terms.' Peru Strike Threat Averted For Week PERU. Ind. (UPD-A strike threat which has been hanging over Peru’s municipal power utility appeared today to have been averted for at least a week.

City officials then refused to arbitrate the dismissals and the union voted to strike. * However, tfea union has ruled that the strike ballot was not proper and it was reported that a new strike was scheduled for Jan. 15.
