PLAINFIELD, N.

Official team statistics had Glen Ridge dominant with 44 rebounds to Dunellen's 24. Dunellen's five starters all brought honor on themselves. Andy Abrahamson bagged 11 of 16 field goal attempts to wind up the high scorer with 24 points.

Steve Matushak got 12 points and was all over the court rebounding and picking off passes. Doug Harper was never better directing the attack; Cummings kept Glen Ridge honest under the boards and Butch Butula popped in 12 valuable points. Dunellen, after ripping through Glen Ridge's zone defense for leads of seven and eight points in the first period, found itself locked in a close battle after Cuozzo got off the bench and pumped in nine points to pull the Ridgers to a 31-30 half time deficit The Destroyers rode to a 36-32 cushion early in the third quarter before Glen Ridge, sparked by the rebounding, of Church, the driving shots of Cuozzo and the outside one-handers of Chichester, surged to a 51-48 lead entering the final period. Nine of 17 Ridger field goal attempts dropped in the 21-point session but the Destroyers were hurting because Cum- Big Fuss Follows Big Bout By MURRAY ROSE New York (JP) Virgil Akins' sixth round technical knockout of Cuba's Isaac Logart shared the spotlight today with the surprise serving of more than a dozen subpoenas to boxing figures to appear before the Grand Jury. Akins, a power punching, 30-year old veteran from St.

Louis, earned a fight with Vince Martinez of Paterson, N. for the vacant welterweight title by stopping the shifty Cuban in 2:53 of the sixth round last night. Unleashes Barrage Trailing 4-1 on the scorecards of the three officials, Akins let loose with both barrels in the sixth. He floored the 24-year old Logart twice and had him on the verge of another knockdown when Referee Harry Kessler halted the massacre. It was an abrupt turnabout as Logart had dominated the first five rounds.

During his absence, Dunellen failed to grab one offensive rebound. Abrahamson, sensational on turning one-handed jump shots, poured in eight points in the third chapter to keep Dunellen on Glen Ridge's heels. Dunellen pulled to several one-point deficits in the last quarter until Abraham-son hit on his specialty to push the Destroyers Into their last lead, 60-59, with 4:30 remaining. Rebounding demon Bill Ri-voire put Glen Ridge ahead to stay at 61-60 on a long jump shot and after Cummings fouled out, Cuozzo cashed in two charity tosses at 4:05 to make it 63-60.

Matushak converted one of two foul tries before the Ridgers went on a tear with seven points in the next 90 seconds. Dunellen was forced to foul in an effort to gain possession and Glen Ridge bagged five of six from the charity line and sandwiched in a tap by Tony Corbo. This made it 70-61 and ths Ridgers steadily increased their lead via points from the free throw mark. In the last four minutes, Dunellen committed nine personals and Glen Ridge said "thank you" and cashed in 12 of 18.

Four times thpv iav been thwarted. Will they overcome this strange hex today on ineir iuin iry? An exnecterl lonnfl and tional television audience (CBS) win get tne answer as the top-seeded Flyers face dangerous Xavier of Cincinnati for the championship in Madison Square uaraen starting at 4:30 p. m.

EST. Frustrating, Says Coach uayton didnt even come close to winning when the Fivers were runnersup in 1951. 1952. 1955 and 1956. They were defeated by 11 or more points in each game.

Dayton Coach Tom Blackburn moans, "I dread finishing second again." Four times in sponnri ie very frustrating experience." inis year Dayton turned back Fordham, 74-70, in the quarterfinals and St. John's (N.Y.) RfU 56 in the semis to boost its season's won-lost record to 25-3. Two of the victories came at the expense of neighboring Xavier. 74-59 and 64-58. The Ohio rivals are only 52 miles apart.

Big Improvement The Cincinnati Musketeers, despite an 18-11 season mark havA displayed tremendous improve ment since those setbacks, however. The Muskies, coached by Jumbo Jim McCafferty, are the tournament's Cinderella club. In order they upset Niagara, 95-86; Bradley defending champions, 72-62, and St Bonaventure, 72-53. "We haven't been favored in any game yet," said McCafferty, who stands 6-8 and weighs 270. But here we are still alive." Dayton boasts a solid starting five, sparked by Don Lane and tranK case.

FAN FARE ALWAYS TAV.KEP A90JT GONG THROUOI TO CM (MA 32 Kentucky, Seattle Play Tonight for NCAA Title By DON WEISS Louisville, Kentucky's balanced Wildcats, who play it straight and tough, and Seattle's jazz 'em up Chieftains take dead aim on the national collegiate basketball title tonieht By GEORGE GOVLICK New Brunswick For the third time since 1947, Durtellen failed to negotiate the final round in the State Group 1 basketball finals but the Destroyers covered themselves with glory in a brilliantly contested 80-68 loss to Glen Ridge at Rutgers here last night. The score doesn't indicate the difference in talent of the two well-balanced quintets. Dunellen was out front, 60-59, with four and a half minutes left when the Ridgers blew the tense struggle apart with a barrage of points from the foul line. The Destroyers, who were champions in 1943 and '46, bowed in the finals in '47 to Sayreville, 70-54, and to Fort Lee, 39-34, in '52, but a Dunellen five never looked so good in defeat in its history. Both rlubs were phenomenal on their shots, the most spectacular being a 45-foot set by Steve Matushak late in the second period which provoked a tremendous roar from 3,000 hoarse throats.

Glen Ridge found the range on 50 per cent of its 56 shots and netted 24 of 37 from the free throw line. Dunellen was accurate on 26 of 55 fielders and was 16 for 26 from the line. The heroes who spearheaded Glen Ridge to its second state championship were Chuck Church, who scored 20 points and controlled the boards with 20 rebounds; Jack Chichester, a 5-2 play-making, whiz who tallied 17 points and Gary Cuozzo, who netted 15 points in an abbreviated appearance, bad back and all. The only place Dunellen fell down was on rebounding, and this eventually spelled the dif Sugar Ray Must Fight Years, Too By JERRY LISKA Chicago JP) Can a fighter grow "too old" in six months? The question applies to 37-year old Sugar Ray Robinson, who seeks to recapture the middle weight title from 30-year-old Car men Basilio in the Chicago Stadi um Tuesday night. Robinson, who celebrates his 38th birthday May 3, never was in better form than last Sept.

23 when he dropped a debatable 15- round decision to Basilio in a blistering title scrap in New York He Proved Something Oh, there was some talk that his punches didn't come in typical combinations. That he let Basilio slip off the hook a couple of times. But he made the bovs who said he couldn't go 15 fast rounds eat their words. It was a grueling pace against a savage foe with savvy. So, now, six months later, why wonaer it ne can do it again? Well, another former middleweight king, Tony Zale, at the age of 35, faded from his greatest victory to oblivion in three months.

aam i'lan, one ot zale co-managers, recalled this today as he predicted another torrid scrap Deiween KODinson and Basilio. "The question is, at his age. can Robinson last through an other grueling 15 rounds if it goes that far," said Pian. "You can grow too old in just one brutal fight." Pathetic Finish Pian said, a decade aeo. his Zale never looked better than in the third and last of his historic middleweight brawls with Rocky Graziano.

"He mowed Rocky down in three rounds," Pian recounted. "Then, three months later, he was chopped to pieces and lost the title to Marcel Cer-dan in 12 rounds. The finish was pathetic, but inevitable, and we knew it was Tony's last fight." The Basilio camp also thinks age is a big worry to Robinson as Tuesday night's big scrap nears. "Here it is a couple of days before the fight and Robinson still is two or three pounds overweight," said Joe Netro, a Basilio co-manager. "That's because he has had to take it easv.

An old man can't be pushed." Netro scoffed at the reports of knockdowns by Robinson in his sparring sessions. Power for "We think we have helped ourselves with Haddix, Purkey, Schmidt and Charley Babe," he said. "Haddix and Purkey make us a little stronger in the front line and Schmidt gives us some protection on relief. I want to take a good long look at Rabe (1610 at Seattle)." Haddix (10-13) at Philadelphia and Joe Nuxhall (10-10) give the Redlegs a pair of left-handed starters to go with righthanders Brooks Lawrence (16-13), Hal Jeff coat (12-13), Johnny Klippstein (8-11) and Purkey (11-14 at Pittsburgh). Hersh Freeman (7-2) and Tom Acker (10-5) will man the bullpen with aid from Schmidt (10-3 at St.

Louis). Wight (6-6 at Baltimore) is battling for a job with Rabe, Bob Kelly (24-11 at Nashville), Orlando Pena (12-10 at Havana) and Jerry Cade (drafted from Macon after an 11-11 year). First base and right field are the open jobs on the ball club. Johnny Temple (.284) at 300 in the history of the Middle and 192 in his other games, Maz second biggest set he's ever scored.

60" er, A Kins said calmly minutes after he had demolished the 2-1 favorite. The odds had jumped from the 7-5 favoring Logart to the 2-1 at fight time in Madison Square Garden. Shortly after the fight ended, District Attorney Frank Hogan's office said "more than a dozen" boxing figures, including Matchmaker Billy Brown of the International Boxing Club, were served with subpoenas. A spokesman fof the D.A. said the subpoenas were issued for appearances as witnesses in an investigation "that has been going on for some time." He declined to elaborate.

Deny Being Served The papers called for April appearances before the Grand Jury as witnesses in a criminal action against "John Doe." Brown and two managers, Willie Ketchum and Jimmy White, said they had received subpoenas. Reports circulated that both Akins and Logart as well as their managers had been among those served. But Bernie Glickman of Chicago and Eddie Yawitz of St. Louis, co-managers of Akins, denied they or Akins had been summoned. Logart and his manager, Eddie Mafuz, couldn't be reached after they left the Garden.

"Why don't you guys write ebout the fight," said Glickman when questioned by reporters. Glickman and Yawitz said they would confer with IBC officials either here today or in Chicago in a few days over a date an site for the Akins-Martinez cham pionship fight. "I want the fight in St. said Akins. "The people are en titled to it." Bill Daly, manager of Martinez, said he had received offers from five cities, including St.

Louis, for the scrap. The others were from Philadelphia, Newark, Chicago and Los Angeles. "We'll go where we can get the most money," Daly said. "I'll talk to Jim Norris (IBC president) in Chicago ebout it in the next day or so." How He Did It Logart and Akins each receiv ed $20,000 guarantees the big gest purses of their careers for the telecast bout which drew an estimated 5,000 and a gate of $15,030. Each weighed 145 for the scheduled 12-rounder.

I knew I was going to get mm, said Akins. "It was just a matter of time. I called the fifth round. Logart was gasping for breath and I knew he was slow ing down. I set him up with a left hook to the body and fol lowed with a right to the jaw.

The right dropped Logart the first time. He was up groggily at three and received the manda tory eight count. A stream of punches climaxed by a right sent Logart sagging to a sitting posi tion on the bottom rope. He was given another eight count. Then Akins punched his helpless target until the referee intervened.

Until the sixth, Logart, bob bing and weaving and throwing punches in bunches, had com plete command of the fast-paced fight, although he was cut slight ly over the right eye in the fourth. "It was a lucky punch," said Logart, of the blow that got him in trouble and dropped him for the first time in his career.

And he's making it pay off. Palmer, National Amateur champion in 1954, sported a 70-69 139 chart after the first two rounds. That gave him a one stroke lead over Dow Finsterwald of Tequesta, who put 70s back-to-back. Par is 36-35 71 on the Pasadena Club course. First day leader George Bayer and Frank Stranahan of Toledo, another former amateur star, were tied for third at 143.

Six others, including Bob Toski of Miami, were bunched another stroke back. Palmer, who won more than $30,000 in 1957 and already has earned $9,540 this year, got his first set of clubs junior size when he was three. By the time he was five he was playing regu larly with his dad, a club professional in Latrobe, Pa.

For the first time since 1947 there is no Ted Kluszewski on the roster. The muscular first baseman who missed most of 1957 because of back trouble has gone to Pittsburgh in a deal for Dee Fondy, another first baseman.

New Muscle has been added in Steve Bilko, a ponderous first baseman, who slammed 56 home runs for Los Angeles (the Pacific Coast League brand) last season. Manager Birdie Tebbetts, who has been acclaimed as a pennant winner in April the last two years, is appropriately enthusiastic. "We have the best young rookie in Florida," said Birdie. "He is Vada Pinson, a 19-year-old outfield who played at Va-salia (Calif.) in Class last year. He hit .367 and stole 53 bases.

A lot of people think he's another Frank Robinson who jumped from Class A to the Majors in one year." Yes, Birdie, but the pitch- ing? tial crack.

Perfect Hits He turned in perfect hits in the next three frames before closing with a pair of light hits.

On each of his last two rolls, the maples didn't give hm any anxious moments. Mazzella's best previous game was a 257.

Petersburg, Fla. (JP) Two separate proposals, one to expand and the other to consolidate the Dig leagues, drew mixed reac tions today from baseball officials. A proposal by Del Webb, co- owner of the New York Yankees, to re-align the two major circuits was received with coolness, by top baseball officials. Another suggestion, by owner Lou Perini" of the Milwaukee Braves, to expand the American and National Leagues to 10 clubs by 1960, and eventually to 12, was greeted with enthusiasm. The re-alignment idea, which Webb said he planned to push at the next scheduled Major League meeting in Washington during the All-Star game interval, would embrace the changing of leagues by Philadelphia and Kansas City.

The Phillies would become part of the American League and the Athletics would become a Na tional League entry.

With All-America Elgin Baylor firing twisting passes and shots and Charlie Brown's dribbling between the legs and free-arm fakes, the conventional was rare as Seattle lived it up. Good, solid playing had open ed up a 47-35 lead early in the second half. The big crowd, heavily partisan for Kentucky and left limp after the Wildcats' thrilling opening victory, enjoyed it. And it was obvious Seattle Coach John Cas- tellani, a frisky little guy with a touch of devilment in his eyes. didn mind.

His Strategy Baylor "The boys had their fun," he grinned, "but they played a heck of a ball game before they went into the act. They've been good like this for their last six games I hope it can last." Castellani said he hasn't de cided what kind of strategy he will use against Kentucky. Baylor my best strategy any way," he quipped, referring' to the 6-6 junior who did everything right while scoring 23 points and plucking 22 rebounds. "They came to play and we didn't," said Kansas State Coach Tex Winter, as unbelieving as most observers. "We knew they were good and that Baylor is a great one," he added.

"I don't know' when we have played any worse." Hatton's heroics were an old story for Temple, which lost one of its two regular season games to Kentucky, 85-83, in three over times. That victory came after Hatton's 47-foot set shot tied the score at the buzzer ending the first overtime period. Only 15 seconds before, All-America Guy Rodgers hose clutch all-around play last night pushed Temple into the lead in the furious wind up missed on a one-and-one free throw when two probably would have clinched the game.
