Leading Teams Still Alive In State Tourney INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Indiana’s 53rd annual high school basketball tourney, still packing all the explosive punch it had at the start, moved into the March Madness today with the big upsets still to come. Two days of firing weeded out a lot of “also-rans,” but only seven defending sectional champs were eliminated and every member of the United Press International “Big 10” was still battling. Twenty-four hopefuls bit the dust in today’s afternoon round and another 116 will join them on the sidelines tonight. If Thursday’s results were a criterion, most of the crucial first-round clashes will be saved for Saturday’s 192-game session. Top-rated Columbus and the two other unbeatens in the show go to the firing line today—Columbus in its evening tourney debut against Waldron will shoot for its 21st victory. Power Prevails Eminence risks its 21-game skein against Bloomington at Martinsville and Loogootee hopes to become a 20-game winner at the expense of Washington Catholic. Michigan City and Indianapolis Tech, two other ranking quintets, opened this afternoon against Stillwell and Speedway, respectively. Also tonight, Muncie Central meets Daleville, Goshen takes on Middlebury at Elkhart, and Gary Roosevelt collides with Merrillville. The ranking teams overpowered their foes with ease Thursday. Muncie dumped Yorktown, 73-46, Evansville Rex Mundi blasted New Harmony, 88-42, to qualify against city foe Bosse Saturday, the defending state champs who trounced Mount Vernon in their opener, 93-53. 7 Goshen, like Muncie beaten only once during the regular season, rolled over Baugo Twp. at Elkhart, 61-40; Gary Roosevelt ousted city foe Froebel, 87-63, after trailing 12-4 in the first period, and Anderson trimmed neighbor Highland, 60-47.

Five Champs Quit Froebel was one of five defending first-round champs to be bumped Thursday. The others were Pennville by Montpelier at Hartford City, 46-44; Franklin, the only three-in-a-row state champ, by Union at Whiteland, 63-62; Holton by host Milan, 40-37, and Oak Hill by Swayzee at Marion, 64-61. Oak Hill had won the last three sectionals at Marion. Besides Bosse, the three other 1962 state tourney finalists were also still flinging, but runnerup East Chicago Washington needed last-second heroics from 6-8 center Rich Mason to edge Hammond in a down-the-wire thriller, 64-62. Mason dropped 25 points to lead the Senators into Saturday’s semifinals and avenge a 70-63 overtime loss to Hammond a month ago. Kokomo, state champ two years ago and in the final four last time, led Delphi all the way, 65-47. And Madison caught Lexington, 68-42. More Thrillers At New Castle, the fans got their money’s worth. Hancock Central edged Lewisville, 70-69, on Gary Meade’s bank shot with five seconds left. Then Sulphur Springs took Vernon, 78-74, thanks to Mitch Stephens’ 14 points in the last period, including the winning margin. At Jeffersonville, New Albany nipped Georgetown at the gun, 44-43, after trailing by five points with 33 seconds left. John Ashton dropped the Winning bucket. Coal Creek Central, which as Wingate became the tourney’s first two-in-a-row champ in 1913-14, won its first sectional game in 10 years at Crawfordsville, 64-55 over Alamo. Larry Hobbson pumped in 40 points for one of the night’s top individual feats in Pekin’s 65-62 win over Campbellsburg at Salem. Kokomo, no great shakes this year, got a lift in its sectional bid
