'Vulnerable' UCLA best in final voting
NEW YORK (UPI) - UCLA may have lost its bid for a perfect season, but the Bruins found one honor which escaped them a year ago by being named the United Press International major college basketball champion for 1968-69.
The Bruins, closing their regular campaign by dropping a 46-44 verdict to crosstown rival Southern California, were accorded the honor by the UP! Coaches Rating Board, which named Coach John Wooden's club the nation's top-ranked
Playoff MVC crown to Bulldogs
Both teams tied for the Valley title last week, ending with 13-3 records.
WICHITA (UPI) — Guards Willie McCarter and Don Draper sparked Drake to a 77-73 victory over Louisville last night in a Missouri Valley basketball championship playoff that earned the Bulldogs a berth in the NCAA tournament.
Drake, in winning its 10th straight, never trailed after Draper's close-in jumper with 3:09 remaining in the first half put the Bulldogs ahead, 29-28. All five Drake starters hit in double figures, with McCarter hitting a high 18 points and garnering six assists.
team in the final ratings of the season.
Despite the loss to USC, the Uclans received every first place vote from the 34 coaches participating in the balloting and accumulated a perfect point total of 340 points.
UCLA completed the regular season with a 25-1 record.
Drake mounted its biggest lead with 7:29 remaining when center Al Williams hit a base line jumper, pushing the Bulldogs into a 64-51 command. Louisville rallied to within three, 74-71, with 32 seconds left. But it was too little too late for the Cardinals, who were seeking a third straight NCAA trip.
Guard Butch Beard topped Louisville with a game-high 26 points, and forward Jerry King added 20.
The victory earned Drake a berth opposite Southwest Conference champion Texas A&M in the NCAA Midwest Regional Thursday night at Manhattan. Louisville drew an NIT bid.

With these disgusting times now upon us, the hard working, book worming student needs to take a pause for some cause-to relax his creative mind in order that it can function properly at test time. So why not drop in at the Stables tonight, where $2.00 buys all the beer you can consume all night long. What a way to refresh your mind, body and soul to help you to gain the strength and courage to conquer the next midterm.
