St. Joseph's Pumas Upset By DePauw Tigers, 85-73

A newly found defense and .500-plus shooting were blended here last night by DePauw’s Tigers in an 85-73 upset ICC win over St. Joseph’s College. The victory chopped off a six-game losing streak in the conference and avenged a 93-72 loss the Tigers suffered at St. Joe less than three weeks ago. The triumph did several other things too. It helped the Tigers pull into a three-way tie for fifth (4-7) in the league and opened the door for a possible third place finish behind Evansville and Indiana State. Four Tigers hit 15 points or better in last night's fray. Morgan Everson got 23, Jack Hogan 20. and Stan Bahler and Dan Schermer. 15 each. Dick Putt, the fifth Tiger starter, hit seven points. Hogan, who kept the Pumas at arms length in the last half with five 20-foot jump shots, connected on eight of 16 attempts. Everson, picking his chances with unusual care, made seven of 10. Bahler seven of 13. and Schermer six of 15. DePauw finished with 32 of 62 for .518 shooting and matched the losers in rebounds, 4343. Everson grabbed a dozen rebounds and Putt had eight. Finishing with 29 points, Lonnie Brunswick was high

for the game. Brunswick . pumped in 14 of 23, including

fast break.

After this splurge DePauw never trailed, building its margin up the rest of the way. The bulge finally crested at 77-55 with 5:18 reamining in the

game.

McCall pulled all his starters with 2:05 to go and an 81-65

margin.

The 73 points St. Joe finally finished with represented the lowest score DePauw has hung

10 of 12 in the last half. St. Joe wound up firing 33 of 80 for

.413.

Coach Elmer McCall credited the win to DePauw’s successful use of a 2-3 zone and the temporary abandoment of

its pressing defense.

Both bits of strategy paid big dividends. The Pumas W'ere bothered enough to miss 27 of

IVesf Virginia Only A Shadow Of Great Mountaineer Teams

By United Preis International West Virginia, only a shadow of the great Mountaineer teams over the last 25 years, and Davidson, a relative newcomer to basketball's elite, returned to the past Friday night with unexpected results. The Mountaineers, who are second only to Kentucky in winning percentage among college teams over the last quartercentury, stunned fourth-ranked Davidson 74-72 in overtime in the semifinals of the Southern Conference Tournament. The Mountaineers had entered the contest with a 12-14 mark, poor for them considering they topped the nation with 324 victories over a 10-year span up until this season. The loiss snapped a 23-game winning streak for the Wildcats and gave them a 24-2 record for the year, still one of the best in the nrtion.

Success Of Yankees Rests On Whitey By United Press International It's no secret that the success of the New York Yankees this season rests greatly on the recovering left arm of Whitey Ford, but there’s another left arm in the league which could figure even more in the pennant race.
