Nat Holman Ousted at CCNY
By UNITED PRESS
New York: Nat Holman, famed basketball coach of City College of New York, was found guilty today of "conduct unbecoming a teacher and neglect of duty" by the board of higher education.
The board, after ruling on the charges which arose from the "fixing" scandal in which seven members of the CCNY basketball team were implicated, then voted that Holman "be dismissed" from the

faculty "unless within 30 days he files an application for service retirement."
The action by the board apparently wrote "the end" to Holman's long career as head basketball coach at City College from 1919 through 1952. During that time, he compiled one of the most brilliant coaching records in the nation and his career reached a peak in 1950 when CCNY won both the National Invitation and National Collegiate AA tournaments—a feat never performed before or since by any other team.
Kansas City, Mo.: Montana State,
Arizona State of Flagstaff and Whit-

for the National Intercollegiate
Basketball Tournament in Kansas
City next week.
The NAIA now has nine of its 32 teams certified. The others include: Mississippi Southern, Lawrence Tech, Mercer University, Regis College, Arkansas Tech, and Nebraska Wesleyan.
Houston, Texas: A $6,000 top prize dangled before the eyes of more than 150 golfers who teed off today in the $30,000 Houston Open tournament and that, combined with a dry, hard course, led to the belief this year's tourney may be won by the lowest score ever.

Kington, Jamaica: Art Larsen of San Leandro, Calif., defeated Gardner Mulloy of Miami, Fla., 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, yesterday in the final round of men's singles in the St. Andrew club invitation tennis tournament.
You can see the flattering new top line, the pert little wedge...but you can't imagine the comfort of the soft toe, the unlined glove-soft leathers, the wonderful bare-foot-feel fit. And such an easy-to-have price, too.
No golfer stood out as a favorite, particularly in view of the showing so far along the winter golf trail of several "newconners" to the winner's circle.

In the final round of women's singles, Helen Fletcher of England upset Shirley Fry of Akron, Ohio, 6-1. 6-1.
Two of the 16 colleges scheduled to compete were declared ineligible last night by the NCAA rules committee, headed by Paul Wright of Gunnison, Colo.
Reno. Nev.: Some 150 collegiate skiers from Maine to California began competing today in the first NCAA-sanctioned National Intercollegiate Ski championships.
Akron, Ohio: A month away from his Army discharge, featherweight champion Sandy Saddler meets Charlie Slaughter of Westfield, N.J. at the Armory tonight in a non-televienced, non-title 10-round fight.
It will be Saddler's second over-the-weight fight in the past month preparing him for a title defense this summer. He has been in the Army the past 22 months.
Lindsgorth, Kan: Much of the basketball record book at Bethany college must be rewritten because of the excellent season of Ralph Fry.
The star from Pawnee Rock hit 52 per cent of his shots from the field and 68 per cent of his free throw tries. He scored 470 points in Bethany's 24 games for a 19.5 average and a new record.
average field goals and 154 charity tosses also made new records, as did his 31-point exhibition against McPherson in a Kansas conference game.
The basketballer also established a new Bethany free throw record for a single game when he got 12. He hit a like number of fielders in one game for another standard.
In addition to his fancy scoring, Fry led the Swedes in rebounds both on offense and defense.
Detroit: Holly Mims of Washington, D.C., sought a rematch today with Moses Ward to prove that his split 10-round decision over the young Detroiter 'Wednesday night was no fluke.
"Sure, I want to fight Ward again," Mims said. "And the next time we meet it won't even be close. I'll win going away."
