IV "Pick 'Em" Davidson follows in mom's steps 7 i. Pete Davidson Jr. edged out 14 other entrants with 6-2 records by coming the closest to predicting Indiana's 38-37 victory over Brigham Young to win last week's Journal football "Pick 'Em contest. Pete's win added a second notch on the Davidsons' record, as his mother, Jan, won the basketball contest last week. As that clan and the neighbors generally combine to send in one of the fattest envelopes of ballots each week, we may see another victory from the Davidsons before the season winds up.

The short list of bowl games and pro playoff contests provided two major upsets: Indiana's victory over Brigham Young, and Washington's defeat of Texas in college bowl games. It's another short list this week (12 games), so be sure to list a tiebreaker score as many people will probably record the same game record. This WMt'l football ptrkl Pete DtriftM. Mlcfclfu.

(Journal photo) Players jumping ship An exact tie was recorded in last week's basketball "Pick 'Em" contest, as Johnny Buck and Journal sports editor Ric Burrous both went 22-3 and predicted the same tiebreaker score (Indiana 72, North Carolina 65) to score a double victory. While those two were at least a game ahead of the rest of the field, they were completely wrong about the tiebreaker game, as North Carolina won 61-57 a turn of events few predicted.

"He had his personal reasons for leaving the team of which he has my confidence. We talked about these things in private." La Von Williams or Fred Cowan will replace Bowie at center and Jay Shidler and Derrick Hord likely will take over at guard for Anderson. Eighth-ranked Indiana had its holiday spirit shaken Thursday when it learned top-scorer Mike Woodson was in all likelihood through for the season. A four-year starter and the offensive force of the Hoosiers, Woodson underwent surgery Thursday for a ruptured disc in his back. He was listed in fair condition.

The Hoosiers are entered in tonight's Cabrillo Classic in San Diego. At the Tigers were handed some unwanted news. Forward Kirk Shawver and guard Al Hightower told Coach Norm Stewert they want to leave the team. Both are eligible to play and reasons for their departure are unclear. James Ray scored a game-high 18 jwints Thursday night as host Jacksonville extended its record to 9-0 with a 61-55 victory over Florida for the Gator Bowl championship.

Iowa State took William Mary 56-55 in the consolation game. Larry Smith and Eddie Baker scored 21 points each as Alcorn State beat MississiDoi State. 82-75. in the semifinals of the Senior By United Press International The holiday blues has hit college basketball's top teams. With Christmas tournaments spanning the country from the Rainbow Classic in Honolulu to the Choo Choo Classic in Chattanooga, three of the nation's strongest teams received some unexpected yuletlde greetings.

Kentucky, Indiana and Missouri all lost key players in a series of moves that may well create a stir among the top-ranked teams. Kentucky, the nation's No. 2 team, came out a three-time loser Thursday when it was announced standout freshmen Sam Bowie and Dirk Minniefield were suspended for Saturday's game against third-ranked Notre Dame for "violation of well-established training rules." In an apparently unrelated matter, sophomore guard Dwight Anderson said he was leaving the university for "personal reasons." Kentucky Coach Joe Hall did not elaborate on the training violations. "They're too numerous to mention and they cover a variety of things," he said. Asked if Anderson might have left because of poor grades, ISU winning TERRE HAUTE, Ind.

(UPI) Pollsterstake notir Indiana State is winning basketball games without Larry Bird. In fact, the Sycamores runnersup to Michigan State in the 1979 NCAA tourney have a five-game winning streak and a 7-2 record heading toward the conclusion of their pre-Missouri Valley Conference schedule. Carl Nicks has picked up the scoring punch of Bird, witnessed by Thursday night's 32-point effort in ISU's 72-50 drubbing of Baltimore. Fourteen of Nicks points came early in the second half. The victory also was the seventh straight at home this year for the Sycamores since an opening loss to Armstrong State.

wl in Mobile, Ala. in the first game. Ed Kains had 20 points to souui Alabama to a m-ri victory over Kider. By United Press International Hubie Brown has Eddie Johnson's number. "We Cleared out and called the No.

2 play," Johnson said, referring to Coach Brown's play selection that led the Atlanta Hawks to a 112-110 victory Thursday night over the Houston Rockets. "It was for me to try and penetrate down the middle." With the score tied 110-110, the Hawks discussed their alternatives and decided to go with Johnson, who had a cleared out lane to work with in his attempt to drive to the hoop. The carefully planned play was scrapped quickly, however, when the Rockets clogged the middle. "They really cut it off," Johnson said. "I had to take the jumpsnot." Things worked out well for the Hawks as Johnson pulled up from 15 feet and hit a field goal with three seconds remaining, to lift the Central Division leaders over the Rockets.

"It wasn't pretty, but it's a win." said Brown. Celtics 118, Clippers 97 Dave Cowens scored 27 points and Boston used an awesome fast break to bury San Diego. Lloyd Free, the NBA's second leading scorer, finished with a game-high 28 points for the Clippers. Bullets 117, Bucks 108 Greg Ballard scored a career-high 27 points and grabbed 13 rebounds to power Washington. Junior Bridgeman paced Milwaukee with 27 points.

Cavaliers 125, Knicks 110 Mike Mitchell scored 34 points and teamed with Campy Russell and Randy Smith to spark Cleveland. Toby Knight led the Knicks with 30 points. 7Sers 118, Spurs 114 Darryl Dawkins dropped in an offensive rebound with 28 seconds remaining to snap a 114-114 tie and Julius Erving followed with a key block on George Gervin to lift the Sixers. Lakers 124, Jazz 116 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored 31 points and Norm Nixon added 27 as Los Angeles depended on a strong second quarter to drop Utah. Adrian Dantley had 37 points for the Jazz.

Nater player of week NEW YOPK (UPI) Swen Nater of the San Diego Clippers, who had 35 points and 22 rebounds against the Utah Jazz Sunday, was named the NBA's Player of the Week Wednesday. Nater's performance for the week, in which he averaged 20.3 points and 13.8 rebounds, led the Clippers to three consecutive victories and to the .500 mark. In the Far West Classic in Portland, unbeaten Clemson stopped Texas Tech, 7948, behind 19 points by Billy Williams. North Carolina-Charlotte, backed by 19 points from Chad Kinch, defeated Oregon, 6944, in the opening game. In the All-College Tournament in Oklahoma City Mike Jackson scored 16 points to lead Wyoming to a 59-52 victory over St.

Francis (N.Y.) and Bo Overton scored 16 points to send Oklahoma over Western Michigan. 72-60. In the Rainbow Classic in Hawaii, Jerry Shoecraft hit two free throws with two seconds left in overtime to give Nebraska an 83-82 decision over Wisconsin. scHrebflard THE Sports by UPI NBA CHL NFL playoffs Washington I 22 5 Smythe DMslea rta.
