Akron spurted briefly to cut the advantage to 24-18 at the seven-minute mark before the Bulldogs put the victory away in their hip pocket. In the next three and a half minutes Shade slipped two field goals and four free throws through the cords to give Butler as 32-18 bulge.

Take 7th Place In Far West STAR SPECIAL REPORT Portland, Ore. Purdue salvaged seventh place in the Far West Classic yesterday, but just barely, as it edged past Washington State, 68-66. Sophomore Dave Johnson, playing in the place of injured Bob Purkhiser, got the winning bucket on a driving layup with five seconds to go. The bucket came off an out-of-bounds play that didn't materialize. THE BALL was supposed to go to Dave Schellhase, bu the Boilermakers' leading scorer couldn't get free, so Johnson had to get the basket himself.

In the first night game, Jim Barnett drove through North-western's defense and led Oregon to an 82-74 victory which notched third place in the event for the Ducks. Barnett collected 32 points, most of them on fast breaks and drives. THE BOILERMAKERS, using a 2-3 zone defense for only the second time this season, forced Washington State to shoot from the outside, and the Cougars, now 2-8, for the season managed only 22 of 73 from the field for a frigid .301. The Boilermakers' own icy shooting kept them from putting it away early. The Riveters, who were plagued by poor shooting throughout the tournament, hit on just 24 of 70 from the field for .343.

SCHELLHASE again topped the Boilermakers scoring with 24 points. And for a change he had some support. Johnson, with 12; Ron Hughes, II, and Niemeier, 10, joined him to give Purdue four men in double figures for the first time this year. Tommervik topped the Cou-ea-s' attack with 20 points Randv Stoll added 12 and Ted Werner II. Butler's Larry Shade is at the back, right.

Action was in the first half of the game which Butler went on to win, 79-58. (Star Photo by Ed Lacey, Jr.) YOU FOULED That's what the referee sang out last night as Mike Chapman of Butler grabbed Akron's Ron Brown in the Butler-Akron game at the Field-the Butler-Akron game at the Fieldhouse. the talented twins from Greenwood, were real hits with the Southern crowd that roared in approval when the Hoosiers tore St. Louis into little pieces Monday night. And, it was the same crowd that finally started applauding when the twins and Jon McGlocklin caught fire in the second half against hometown favorite Memphis State.

When the threesome named to the all-tournament team, the roar of approval was almost as loud as that received by John Hillman of Memphis State who was "picked" most valuable player. No one on the Hoosier squad was pleased with Hill-man's selection. All agreed that McGlocklin should have won the award with his 48 points and key scoring plays that actually broke both games open. "That McGlocklin really killed us," said M-S assistant coach Al Brown." He beat us outside, then went inside and played the post and embarrassed us." "NOW WE can concentrate on Illinois," said a happy but tired Al Harden, the little guy who makes Indiana's pressing defense sing. "I was scared to death we'd get beat by Memphis State.

"It was a matter of pride for us. We were flat for the game. But, when it stayed tight and they even got in front of us, we really started to click." That "pride" has been a big thing all season for the Hoosiers, riding their best opening streak (nine victories) since the 1949-50 team. It's been the spark that has brought fresh bounce to rebounders' legs and quicker feet and hands on defense. It's also responsible for the superb conditioning that has worn down every one of I.U.'s opponents long before the game's conclusion.

This was especially evident in the championship game. By midway through the final half, Memphis Coach Dean Ehlers was forced to call three time outs in less than two minutes of playing time as his boys tried to catch their breath. It was that same tiredness that finally caused the Tigers to crack under the pressure of the press and give up five gift fielders that helped open the floodgate of victory for Indiana. High School Basketball The hot-handed duo zip-pered the Zips with -17 of the Bulldogs' points, sniping 18 of 27 shots from the floor. Sanders, leading scorer all season, tallied 24 points and Shade was right behind with 23, getting 17 in the first half.

Sanders banged in II of 19 shots, counting 14 of his points after the intermission as Butler won its fourth game in 10 outings. Shade, the quiet, quick guard who lets his actions do his talking, had one of the hottest nights of his career. He didn't miss a shot from the floor until the clock reached the 3:20 mark of the second half and that was the only time he failed to connect all evening. From the free throw line the 5-10 back court ace was just as accurate, making 9 of 10. In the first 20 minutes Shade was on target five times from the floor and on seven of seven free tosses as Butler forged a 40-24 halftime advantage.

Akron, ranked sixth in the UPI small college ratings, dropped its second decision in seven starts. Don Williams, fi-4 jumping jack sophomore forward, was the big man in the Zips' attack with 23 points, 17 of them coming in the last half. This was the last non-conference outing for Butler before opening its Indiana Collegiate Conference slate here Saturday against DePauw. Rugged Evansville makes a visit Wednesday and St. Joseph's comes calling Jan.

9. Butler jumped off to a 6-0 lead in the first two and a half minutes and was in command the rest of the way in the initial meeting between the two clubs. Hitting six of their first II shots the Bulldogs raised the count to 17-6. Shade had Iowa FTs Nip Gophers At Buzzer Los Angeles (UPI) Gary Olson's two free throws with three seconds to go provided Iowa a comeback 76-74 vie tory over Minnesota and third place in the sixth annual Los Angeles basketball classic last night. UCLA played unbeaten Utah for the championship.

The score was tied 74-74 in the Iowa Minnesota game when Olson drove in on an at tempted layup shot. HE WAS FOULED under the basket by Dennis Dvorack and hit the floor. But he got ud to sink hnth free throws, giving the Hawk- eyes their upset over Minnesota which entered the tournev unbeaten and ranked No. nationally.

Thirteen fouls were called against the visitors to four for Butler.

The whistle tooting of Ray Robinson and Don Hoilman wasnt' exactly appreciated by Akron coarh Tony La-terza. Ten errors didn't help the visitors either. Butler scored several times on the miscues and made only four mistakes. Forward Junior Carroll had seven points for Akron in the first half, Williams and Rich Turner making six apiece. After the break the story was the same.

Except for a few anxious minutes at the start of the second canto when the Bulldogs committed four errors, coach Tony Hinkle's crew moved the ball well. The precision passing paid off in 16 of 34 shooting, the five starters hitting 13 of 24. Butler reached its biggest advantage, 23 points, five times. The first occasion wa 66-43, the last, 79-56.

"THIS TOURNAMENT was a big thing for us," said McCracken. "It proved we can win on a strange court before a crowd that's boosting the other team. And we did it without really being 'up' for the games.

"Frankly, I was i a -pointed with both St. Louis and Memphis State. I thought they'd give us a lot more trouble than they did. That means we're either better than I thought, or St. Louis didn't deserve its high national ranking.

GREENCASTLE ALSO had Ron Bloch and Jim Chadd in with 17 points each, but the Cubs couldn't match Michigan City's overall cannonading. In this game also, the losers had considerably more shots at the hoop but with much less success. Greencastle hit 32 of 82 attempts while Michigan City was downing 34 of 69.

Greencastle staged several rallies during the battle but only after the Cubs were down too far to get even against the fast-moving northern quintet.

The Lebanon Tigers survived a rash of technical fouls to defeat Lafayette, 72-71, last night in the championship game of Jeff's 20th annual holiday basketball tournament. Michigan City, which lost a one-point overtime decision to Lebanon Tuesday night, captured the consolation game from Greencastle, 93-86. LEBANON DREW three technical fouls, two of them on one play midway through the final quarter, helping Lafayette to a four-point lead, but, the tigers came on to gain a victory from the foul stripe in the final 18 seconds.

With the score tied at 69 all, the Tigers' Rick Mount dropped in two free throws at the 18-second mark when fouled while rebounding by Jeff center Lou Koning.
