THE NASHVILLE TtNNESSIAN. Sunday Morning, n. 8. 1961 3-E mm West Snaps Dupont Streak tral. Guard Gary Fambrough had one of his "on nights" and collected 21 points in the Rams' seventh win.

Maplewood grabbed it first athletic win over neighboring arch-rival Goodlettsville as Forward Jackie Harrison hit 18 points and center Carl George bucketed 15. The Panthers, hot shooters all season, hit 43 per cent in the second half from the field. It was the fifth win in seven games for Maplewood and Goodlettsville had a four-game win streak snapped. The Trojans had two men in double digits, guard John Fuqua hitting 15 points and forward Jimmy Fhipps 14. Frank Wllbert hit 20 and from the field for an icy 22 per cent and didn't get a man in double figures.

Tim Chilcutt led the Old Hickory scoring with 9. West, meanwhile, played one of its better games, methodically working for shots and hitting 37 per cent (21 of 57). Jerry Sullivan and Jim Gardner led the scoring with 11 points each, but McCoin, Doug Hall and Bobby Richardson all had 10. The win ran West's overall record to 10-4 for the season. Dupont has lost twice in 10 games.

MADISON grabbed a share of the NIL lead and took charge in the 19th District by beating Cen "Under the circumstances, I'm just glad we won," smiled Kennedy, who pinched-hit for Shapiro' one time last year and beat Lipscomb in overtime. "But, McCoin certainly played well and it will help his confidence." COACH DAVE ADAMSON of Dupont was at a loss to explain the listless performance of his Bulldogs who only Friday night blasted Hillsboro out of this same gym with a last half shooting spree. "We plsyed awful," he said after the game. "We haven't been shooting well but tonight was one of our worse games for accuracy." The Bulldogs hit only 13 of 59 Vi- '-SSQ- i fL iff c-'aaSL, 'J By JIMMY DAVY rEST'S well-balanced Blue Jays knocked defending champion Dupont from atop the Nashville Interscholastic League standings last night, beating the Old Hickorians 58-35 in the Hillsboro gymnasium. The loss ended a five-game winning streak for Dupont and sent the Bulldogs tumbling to fifth place in league standings.

Idle David Lipscomb and Madison, a. 45-28 winner over Cen-; tral last night, now share the NIL lead with 7-1 records. WEST HAD five men in double figure scoring but if there has to be an individual standout it was forward Jerry McCoin, who scored 10 points and picked off 13 rebounds. West, winning its third straight game, played under the guidance of Jay assistant coach Jim Kennedy. Head coach Joe Shapiro was confined to home because of illness.

Several games were played last night and found Maplewood upsetting Goodlettsville 51-47, Franklin ripping Bethesda 52-27, and Antioch beating Donelson 59-46. GIRLS PLAY saw sensational Mary Langley of Franklin hit the seasonal individual high by scoring 48 points in a 61-53 loss to Bethesda. Elsewhere Central upset Madison 36-35, Antioch halted Donelson 42-28, and Maplewood topped Goodlettsville 39-35. Last night's win by West was the Jays' third in a row since the Christmas holidays and it further confused the topsy-turvy race for a league championship. Basilio Wins Verdict Over Caspar Ortega MilMMiSMMWaaSHMIMM1 A il V1 Staff photo by Bill Preston Okay, lineup for the basketball.

Forming an impromtu line for the loose ball, from left, are Jimmy Kearley (West), Albert Menefee (Dupont), Ronnie Panter (Dupont), Jerry McCoin (West) and Richard Hudnall (Dupont). West had the ball enough for a 58-35 win. EVERYBODY HELPED, INCLUDING A FAN missed a punch in the second Basilio suffered a nick on his right brow in the second round and his nose began bleeding in the third. Ortega's nose bled slightly after the seventh. THE THREE ring officials favored Basilio on a rounds basis as follows: Referee Al Berl, 6-4; Judge Leo Birnbaum, 6-4; Judge Joe Epy, 5-4-1.

The United Press International had Basilio ahead, 7-3. The crowd, estimated at 8,000 the largest for a Garden fight in more than a year cheered the verdict heartily. Van, Joe Schmidt Named Tops in NFL HOLLYWOD, Fla. iJP) Norman Van Brocklin and Joe Schmidt yesterday were named winners of awards as most valuable offensive and defensive players, respectively, of the National Football League. Schmidt, linebacker for the Detroit Lions, accepted the award following the Cleveland-Detroit playoff game in Miami.

Van Brocklin, quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, Is in Los Angeles and was unable to accept the trophy in person. Announcement of the winners was niHde by Bill Howton of the Dallas Cowboys, president of the NFL Players Association. Howton presented the trophy to Schmidt By JACK CUDDY TVTEW YORK (UPD Carmen Basilio, former welterweight and middleweight champion, used a persistent forcing and hooking attack last night to score a heartening comeback victory on a unanimous 10-round decision over Mexican Gaspar Ortega at Madison Square Garden. Craggy-faced Basilio, weighing the heaviest of his career earned the right to a non-title fight with welterweight champion Benny (Kid) Paret on March 4 at a site to be announced later. Carmen of Chittenango, N.Y., scaled a suspension-causing 159 Mi pounds, exactly 10 more 149'ii.

than slender Ortepa's CHAIRMAN Melvin Krule-witch of the New York State Athletic Commission announced at the ringside that Basilio is "now under suspension and I will announce the length of the suspension on Monday." Basilio will be suspended for at least 30 days for breaking an agreement to weigh no more than 155 pounds. Returning to the ring after a six-month lay-off and after having been knocked out in his two last previous fights with middleweight co-champion Gene Fullmer, Carmen showed flashes of his former prowess and appeared in much better condition than on last June 29 when stoped in the 12th round by Gene. IN THE DRESSING room Basilio announced. "Ill keep on Boyd's Big Scoring Splurge Buddies uaaested Bv 1, 1. ws Carmen Basilio Plans To Continue fighting with tonight's bout under my belt, I'll be much sharper next time." At 33 he thought he might go into permanent retirement if he was beaten badly last night.

The fight with Ortega was excellent, studded with fierce exchanges. There were no knockdowns in this contest between Carmen's left hooks and Ortega's long left jabs to the head and rights to the body. Gaspar sliped to the canvas when he I Mi In. -t By GENE PEARCE TENNESSEAN Sports Writer CAMDEN, Tenn. Camden's basketball team committed premeditated scoring mayhem Friday.

Ronnie Bargatze had 19 In lead ing Antioch over Donelson. FRANKLIN won ite second game in two nights as Richard Hollars found the range for 20 points, somewhat of an anji-climax to Mary Langley's 2 field goals and four free throws in the girls loss to Bethestja. She scored 17 points in the fiiraU quarter and now has a total 278 points to lead the league Helen Johnson of Antioch tallied 28 points in beating Donelson but it didn't save her rlL coring lead. She now has 273 points, five less than Langley? Central's hard-luck girls finally won a close one and this tiane Madison, loser of four games In a row, was the victim. Biarwca Bettis had 17 points and Aim-ette Sicgrist 15 fof the winners, Julia Brown tallying 25 for Madison.

W. Davis has scored 713 points in 20 games for an average of 35.1. Davis is expected to break the longstanding record of Bailey Howell, the former Middleton player who scored 1,186 points. Danny' average could be a lot better," Chester said. "But we haven't had much trouble in a lot of our games and he's only played a half in many of them." The Lions are 18-1.

Chester was surprised to find out that his club had not set a team record. Loudon is the holder of that honor, having beaten McMinn County 197-57 in 1956. ClimerTKOT Broyles in 1st COOKEVILLE, Tenn.

BOYD, a senior who stands 5-11 and weighs 155 pounds, scored 104 points, although he didn't play the final four minutes of the game. "Coach (Wayne Chester) said it was up to the team about my tryinq to set a scorino rrnrH a shy Boyd said. "Jimmy Johnson and James Bell (teammates) suggested it to the coach and he said it was okay if everybody agreed." Boyd did his best, but It took plenty of urging from teammates, and even a fan from the opposing Clarksburg crowd, to push the honor student to his record mark.

DANNY, who has a 95 scholastic average and who ie a member of the Beta Club, scored 55 points in the first half as the Lions piled up a team total of 65 against Clarksburg, which was taking its third defeat from powerful Camden. "I was embarrassed about scoring all those points, but everybody kept telling me to keep going," Boyd said. "I didn't want to play the last half. "The way I was hitting that jump shot was fantastic," ha added. "The best I can remember I only made eight or 10 crips.

The rest were Jumpshote." Danny, just 16 years old, hit 44 field goals and 16 free throws. Here's his scoring by periods: FG FT Total First 11 2 24 Second 11 9 31 Third 13 1 27 Fourth 9 4 22 Total 44 16 104 "Our shot charts are incomplete, but I know for sure he hit well over 50 per cent from the field," Chester said. WITH ABOUT four minutes remaining in the game (high schools play eight-minute quarters), Chester took Boyd out with 100 points to his credit. "He was tired and I thought he had enough, but some Clarksburg fan came over and said let him score 104 to break Janet Hays' record of 103," Chester said. Janet Hays scored 100 points for Henry against Puryear during the 1955-56 season.

Apparently the Clarksburg fan had been misled about Hays' total. Boyd's goal had been the 80-point record set by Gordon Taylor of Trezevant during the 1953- Road House 'Cap Winner NEW ORLEANS UP) Road House, a dark brown colt owned by RoRer Wilson and Earl Allen, bounced Into the lead at the head of the stretch yesterday and with- stood two furious late challenges to win the $10,000 Old Hickory Handicap at the Fair Grounds.

Tenacious, second choice In the race, paid $5 and $2.40 and Pete's Folly, the 3-2 favorite with run ning mate Santiago, returned $2.20.
