Continued from Page 7A lead at the 5:35 mark of the period on Dick Canales' pair of free throws and. never trailed thereafter. They held a 10-4 first quarter lead and a 19-12 advantage after a low-scoring first half. The eventual winners doubled their first half score in the third period, tallying 19 points and holding a safe 38-21 margin going into the last quarter. The final game was one of the roughest in sectional play for some time, with tempers on occasion and the officials having difficulty in getting the players cooled off to continue play. Larry Daniels and Bob Shraluka topped the Decatur scoring with 14 and 13 points, respectively, and no Hartford player scored in twin figures. A total ot 18 fouls were called on Hartford and 15 on Decatur. The new champs had ousted their city rivals, the Commodores, in the afternoon, by a 72-61 score in a real tight battle Hartford advanced to the final game for the third year in a row by whipping Geneva, 66-43.
