UCLA Has Plans for '66 NCAA Crown. Too
PORTLAND, Ore.—(UPI)—UCLA has its sights set on an unprecedented third straight NCAA basketball title—and there probably were few around today who would discount its chances.
Not as long as coach Johnny Wooden has "reserve" Kenny Washington around, anyway. Wooden's pressure-proof Bruins handed Michigan a 91-80 beating in the finals of
this year's tourney Saturday night to become the fifth team ever to win two NCAA crowns back-to-back since the tournament began in 1939.
Washington, a junior, provided the spark—just as he did against Duke in the final a year ago.
THE BIG man in the victory, of course, was senior Gail Goodrich, the 6-1 bundle of energy who ran the Wolverines dizzy and scored 42 points.
Although Goodrich said he "knew we were going to win" after the game was three minutes old. Michigan had the edge at the start.
The giant trio of Cazzie Russell, Bill Buntin and Oliver Darden dominated the boards and the Big Ten team had a 20-13 lead midway in the first half.
That’s when Washington came off the bench, hit five field goals and
Outstanding Swimmers to Meet At Iowa State for NCAA Titles
AMES, Iowa—There are going to be more than 300 of the nation's greatest collegiate swimmers in action at Iowa State this week—everyone a champion or about to become one.
There will be a few of the best—Yale freshman Don Schollander, for instance—who are not varsity eligibles this year, but for the most part all the good collegiate swimmers will be on hand Thursday, Friday and Saturday for the 42nd annual NCAA swimming and diving championships.
Last year at Yale 71 men scored points. This week 48 of those same point winners, including men who won a total of 15 of the 17 titles, will be back in action. Not one of the events returns less than three place winners from last year and two of them—the 200-year breast stroke and the three meter diving—have all six place winners back.
It might appear that hopes of any newcomers breaking into the elite list of point winners would be dim. For two reasons this isn't so. The first reason, a might simple one, is that the rules committee upped the placings from six to 12 for this year.
Twice as many men as before will be in action.
The other reason, almost as simple, is that a lot of fine newcomers are going to be taking cuts at the veterans. Just one for instance will illustrate the point: Gary Dilley of Michigan State is one of the newcomers who broke the world record in the Olympic 200 backstroke and has already shown that he is faster than the pack in the 100-yard back stroke event. Dilley is only one of many new men who will be upsetting the veterans.
But when names like Roy Saari, Southern California; Steve Clark, Yale; Fred Schmidt, Indiana; Dick Gilbert, Indiana; Dick McGaag, Southern Cal.; Bill Craig, Southern Cal.; Bob Bennett, Southern Cal.; Walt Richardson, Minnesota, keep popping up among the winners fans know that the "old hands" aren't planning to abdicate.
Nearly a score of Olympic veterans, dozens and dozens of conference champions are all on hand. The men who are not champions have had to meet championship standards just the same. The rules committee set up marks that not five years back were world marks—and have turned
Lapchick Bows Out on Win
By Fred McMane (UPI Sports Writer)
NEW YORK — Few men really have the opportunity to bow out of a sport the way they lived the game, but Joe Lapchick was one of the fortunate ones.
During his 20 years as head basketball coach at St. John's University and nine seasons as chief mentor of the New York Knickerbockers, the name of the game was always "desire" to Coach Lapchick.
CYR Plans Trip To State Convention
KU's delegates at this year's Collegeiate Young Republicans' State Convention are expected to outnumber all other delegations.
A group of 32 men and women will represent KU's 600 CYRs at the convention to be on Friday and Saturday at the Lassen Hotel in Wichita.
The State Convention Committee decides on the number of delegates every club can send. This is based on the strength of membership in each club. Comenting on this, Topeka Sophomore Bill Porter, President of the KU CYR, said, "Our club has the largest number of members in the state and therefore, we are allowed to send 32 delegates to this convention."
Porter is the only candidate announced by the KU CYR for the State election. He will be contesting for the post of one of the vice-chairmen.
down any swimmer who failed to equal the pre-meet standards. The experts have been surprised at the size of the field (300) in view of those rugged qualifying marks.
Probably the greatest tribute to this teaching occurred Saturday when his St. John's team defeated Villanova 55-51 to capture the National Invitation Tournament.
Using the sixth place times in the 1964 meet at Yale as standards, this amazing fact is revealed: at least six men have already bettered those marks in every event. The total runs as high as 32 in some events. This, mind you, before these great performers have faced the pressure of the big one to be held in the Beyer Hall pool this week.
THIS WAS the fourth NIT title for the Redmen under Laochick
It was Lapchick who brought out the desire. Few men in basketball history are as skilled at getting a team up for a game as Lapchick, and he made the Redmen want to win the NT.
HOWEVER, the NIT was like a shot of penicillin to the Redmen. Sonny Dove, a sophomore sensation who hadn't played a good game since the Holiday Festival, and Kenny McIntyre, a senior backcourt man who experienced hot and cold shooting shots, suddenly went berserk against a strong Boston College squad in the opening round and the Redmen routed the Eagles 114-92. Dove scored 23 points and cleared both backboards while McIntyre tossed in 42 points.
On a strict man-for-man basis, St. John's wasn't the best team in the tournament. After their victory in the Holiday Festival, the Johnnies were a floundering club until the start of the NIT. They finished the regular season only 17-8 and were unseeded in the tourney.
That opening victory provided the Redmen with all the necessary momentum. They took second-seeded New Mexico 61-54 in the quarterfinals and dumped Army 67-60 in the semis.
Villanova was a slight favorite to take the final game, but the Johnnies wanted this one for Lapchick.

Washington's performance was sorely-needed — because UCLA' number-two star, senior Keitl Erickson, was hobbled by a pulleler leg muscle and was used sparingly
propelled UCLA to a 47-34 halftime lead that stood up. A year ago against Duke he scored 26 in the title game. He had 17 Saturday night
WOODEN said he thought "players of Michigan's size would get tired and our press would get to them." Goodrich said he didn't worry about Michigan's early lead because he felt they "couldn't continue hitting that well."
Bradley, who got 12 points in the last four minutes, said he thought he was shooting for a team instead of an individual mark when his coach and teammates urged him to continue firing. Just a little earlier he had waved off a teammates' feed pass with a grin.
Both teams were hot—UCLA hit .569 and Michigan. 516 from the field. Russell led Michigan with 28 points. UCLA had 34 rebounds to 33 for Michigan.
Bradley broke Oscar Robertson's one-game NCAA tourney record of 56 by scoring 58 points in the Tigers' 118-82 third place win over Wichita.
Although Wooden loses Goodrich and Erickson—he has five of his "big seven" back for next year—Freddie Goss, Edgar Lacey, Mike Lynn, Doug McIntosh—and Washington.
A record Oregon crowd of 13,204 also saw a fabulous final performance by Princeton's Bill Bradley.
And Wooden had lost three starters from his 1964 title team—Walt Hazzard, Fred Hirsch and Fred Slaughter.
UCLA, 58-2 for two seasons, set a
record of 400 points in four NCAA tournament games, 41 higher than its own mark last year.

BRADLEY also broke the fivegame NCAA mark of 160 with a total of 177. The former was held by Jerry West of West Virginia and Hal Lear of Temple.
Bill Bradley of Princeton was named the outstanding player of the 1965 NCAA basketball tournament Sunday and also was named to the tournament's all-star team along with Gail Goodrich, Edgar Lacy and Kenny Washington of UCLA and Cazzie Russell of Michigan.
