Phillips Wins AAU Tourney Colorado Is 2nd
Denver — (U.R.)— A full-scale collegiate invasion of the National AAU basketball tournament dislodged the National Industrial Basketball league's three-time champions, but the Phillips Oilers killed the crew-cut's hopes with two unbelievably well-timed shots.
The Oilers, of Bartlesville, Okla,
probably will name a gusher after Jim Walsh. On Friday night in
the semi-finals, he beat San Francisco's Olympic club with a 40-foot
set shot, which he let fly precisely
in the last second to break a 51-51 tie.
The Oilers were second-seeded behind the Peoria, Ill., Caterpillars who had won the title for three straight years. The Oilers, however, were this year's NIBL champions, on the strength of the steady work of such stars as Arnold Short and Chuck Darling.
Then Saturday night, in the finals against Luckett-Nix of Boulder, Colo., the Ollers found the score at 64-all, with 18 seconds to play. They flipped the ball to Wash. He again waited until the球员's finger began to tighten on the trigger, and canned a 45-foot field goal.
San Francisco's team was a collection of west coast college stars, generalled by Stanford's Ron Tomsic.
Play Starts Today In Air Force Meet
The Luckett-Nix club was no more, and no less than the eight seniors of the Colorado University team which placed third in the NCAA finals.
Orlando, Fla. — (U.P.)— The annual Air Force world-wide basketball tournament, bringing together service teams from all over the globe, opens here today.
The defending champion Andrews Air Force base Rockets were favored to win again this year in the week-long double-eimination tourney at Orlando Air Force base. The Rockets have won 50 games this season.
Pro Clubs Talent War Meeting Held
New York —(U.P.)—The National Football league holds a special meeting in New York today to discuss its talent-signing "war" with Canada's professional clubs and a Chicago Cardinal schedule complaint.
Top men for the Andrews team are Cliff Hagan and Lou Tsioporoulis, formerly of Kentucky, Kansas State stars Dick Knostman and Bob Rousey, and Wayne University's Wally Zeimba.
Commissioner Bert Bell will act as chairman of the executive committee session, which is expected to begin at 10:30 a.m. One official from each of the 12 teams will attend.
DeMarco Vs. Manzo Tonight
Detroit had asked for a special meeting to consider relations with the Canadian circuits before Bell ended the uneasy truce with the north-of-the-border teams March 17. Bell said then that NFL teams "are free to act as they please" in recruiting players from Canada.
New York —(U.P.)—Former lightweight champion Paddy DeMarco of Brooklyn, knocked out in his last two fights, meets young Libby Manzo of New York tonight in a widely telecast (DuMont) 10-round bout at St. Nicholas arena. DeMarco, who won the lightweight title by defeating Jimmy Carter in 10 rounds a year ago and then lost the crown back to the New York Negro eight months later, had 83 fights, winning 68 of them. Paddy, who is 27 years old, was knocked out by Carter in their return bout and then was stopped by Seraphin Ferrer, the French lightweight king, in Paris, January 31.
