HP) Basketball turned to the post-season tournaments today after crowning all but two of the conference champions.

Bids already have been extended to many of the top quintets for appearances in the National Invitational and NCAA champion ships. Ten schools have accepted in vitations, six to the Invitational tournament at Madison Square Garden starting March 14; three to the NCAA, also at the Garden starting March 21, and one to the Western NCAA at Kansas City March 22. Kentucky, Muhlenberg, St John's of Brooklyn, Bowling Green, West Virginia and Syracuse have accepted bids to the Invitational with two teams still to be named. It was expected that Arizona, Border Conference champions, will become the seventh entry with the other choice probably coming from the south. For some unexplained reason, DePaul, last year's invitational champions, has been bypassed despite this season's 17-5 record against tough competition.

New York University's once- beaten aggregation, generally rat ed the top team in the nation, will represent district two in the eastern half of the NCAA. Har vard has accepted the bid to con tend for district one and Ohio State will compete for district four. No district three selection has been made as yet, with Duke, Southern Conference champs, North Carolina and Louisiana State regarded as the leading contenders.
