0f Ice Playoffs

By UNITED PRESS The Hershey Bears were an overwhelming favorite today to rush through = the American hockey league championship after blowing the ‘western champién Cleveland Barons out of the playoffs in four straight games, capped by a 9 to 0 rout last night. The ease of Hershey's sweep through the series surprised fans since both teams had wound up the regular season with the same ‘point total. But the western leaders were no match for the easterners and were a demoralized outfit at the end. Babe Pratt led the Bears’ final-game assault with three goals, while = goalie . Gordon . Henry, who took over for the injured Harvey Bennett at the end of the regular season, scored a shutout. Henry allowed the Barons only three goals in the four games. The . Pittsburgh Hornets, the league’s hottest team at the end of the “season, won. their first semifinal game with Buffalo, 3 to 0. The Hornets can qualify for the final round against Hershey by beating Buffalo again tomorrow night at Buffalo,

Barons Blown Out Victorious Holy Cros Regrets Not Playing

NEW YORK, March 26 (U. P).— The Holy Cross Crusaders were very happy natiénal collegiate basketball champion: with but one regret {oday—they didn't “get to play Utah. Victors, 58 to 47, over Oklahoma last night in another of the upsets which have tournament play from start to finish, - they were not nearly as stirred up over their triumph as they were over the fact that they didn’t get to tackle: Utah’s national invitational champs in a mythical title game, “We wanted to play Utah, even though we might have lost,” said shrewd Alvin (Doggie) Julian, the elated Holy Cross coach. “But the circumstances just prevented it. I think Utah would have stayed around if they md known we could win this game, but how could hey have known that? I didn't myself until théy honked that final horn.” Utah, victor in three straight

upset games in the natiomal invi- |}

tational meet, sent’ its team home by plane early yesterday because Oklahoma, the other N. C. A. A. finalist, had declined a chance for a playoff game to settle the argument that now will never be settled.
