midway in the second half to give the Utes eventual 94-77 basketbaU victory over Loyola of Los Angeles Monday In the Ute fieldhouse THE REDSKINS showing signs of overcoming some of their major problems could thank their fast break for the victory and the fact that Loyola chose to run with them The Lions tried to beat the Utes at their own game but their break as good as neither was for most of the game for that matter THE PACE WAS frantic for the first 20 minutes with the Utes pulUng away to smaU and middling-sized leads and the stubborn Lions fighting back The second half was less frenetic although the Lions stayed close enough to keep the crowd of 8387 spending its energies on Christmas boos Then the Utes led by Spence Thurgood expanded a four-point lead to a safe 15 from 61-57 and 1:40 left on the clock Thurgood took second place scoring honors with 17 behind George 18 the same number as 1 1 Doug Moon of the Utes canned 16 $ix of the Utes including all the starters were In double figures as Dennis Couch and Skip Kroeger each scored 10 and reserve center Chuck Curring-ton chipped in with 13 For the Lions Bob Burns netted 15 Dick McCloskey 12 and Detroit Flanagan and Dick Schiendler 10 each Fisher rapidly developing into the Ute on the boards pulled down 11 rebounds although both Currington and Moon beat him with 14 and 12 respectively as the Utes dominated the backboards 75-54 BOTH SIDES committed an overabundance of errors took turns swiping each passes and particularly in the second half were terrible marksmen However both coaches Jack Gardner of Utah and John Arndt of Loyola tried to keep defensive pressure on which no doubt contributed to the occasional offensive raggedness IN THE Intra-squad frosh game the Reds downed the Whites 99-74 in a duel that was marred by Injury to Bob Ockel and Dale Aste when the two banged into the end screen under the basket Bill Ivey led the scorers with 28 for the 'Whites while Dan Marsh had 21 LOYOLA 0 7 1-4 15
