Tennessee Sweats Out OT Triumph By MIKE RECHT Associated Press Sports Writer Tennessee Volunteers, trying to extend their basketball season, almost overdid it. Going to extremes to win their first Southeastern Conference! title since 1943, the Vols muddled through three overtimes and barely missed a fourth before squeezing by Mississippi State 78-76 at Starkville Monday night. Now, instead of being further delayed by a three-way playoff for the SEC crown, the Vols can move directly into the NCAA postseason tournament. Kansas took a much shorter, although precarious, route into the tournament by holding off Colorado 66-59 at Lawrence in regulation time. But while Tennessee and Kansas ended their conference races, the Big Ten competition stretched on and on.

Indiana and Michigan State each won and remained tied for first place, which will be decided by their final games Saturday, if then. Each has 9-4 league marks after the Hoosiers staggered past last-place Michigan 96-90 at Bloomingtcn, and the Spartans shook off host Minnesota 67-59.

Louis at Los Angeles Baltimore at Detroit urday's Western Kentucky Dayton game in the Mideast Regional March 17, needed two free throws by Bill Justus with six seconds left in the third extra period to get by Mississippi State. State's Dave Williams almost lept it going, but his shot missed at the final buzzer.

The final game victory gave the Vols a 15-3 conference mark and avoided a three-way tie with Florida and VandertiJt, each at 14-4 after Vandy dropped Louisiana State 75-66 at Nashville. Third-ranked Kansas never trailed after breaking a 151 5 but Colorado nipped at the leels of the Jayhaws the rest of the way as Pat Frink scored 27 points. The victory gave Kansas its 20th conference title with a 12-1 mark and a 21-3 over-all record that it will take against Saturday's Houston New i State victor in the Midwest Regional March 17. Colorado, 9-4. fell ou of a second place tie with Nebraska and into a third-place deadlock with Kansas State in its bid for the NIT berth that goes to the conference runner-up.

Nebraska, '0-3, which plays a Colorado Saturday, Oklahoma State 88-71 i Kansas State clipped Iowa State 81-68. Kansas State plays Kansas Saturday. Indiana blew an 11-point lead and then came from behind Butch Joyner's 27 points. The Hoosiers'took the lead for good at 89-88 and Vern Payne and Bill Russell split four free throws and Joyner hit a three- point play to protect it. Michigan State broke a 50-50 tie on Matt Aitch's three-point play and a basket by Lee Lafayette.

Tom Kondla paced the Gophers with 27 points. Indiana hosts Purdue and State entertains Northwestern Saturday. Should both fall, the winner of tonight's Iowa-Wisconsin match could make it three-way tie. In other games Monday night, Don Sidle scored 42 points as Oklahoma stumped Missouri 9075, spoiling Tiger Coach Bob Vanatta's final game; Pat Riley fired in 28 points and powered Kentucky past Alabama IKWS; Ohio State trounced visiting Illinois 100-79 despite 27 points by Dave Scholz; Washington beat Oregon 78-67 and Oregon State outlasted Washington State 51-49 in overtime.

"It should be utterly obvious that failure to obtain and print the news, when it is fresh news, hangs a veil of ignorance over the character of crime and criminal issues," he said. Amberg noted recent restrictions on press coverage of criminal cases, including the trial of Richard Speck, who is accused in the murder of eight student nurses in Chicago.

Amberg said lawyers and bar associations were attempting to keep the processes of justice to themselves. He added: "Since lawyers are advocates with a partisan interest in the proceedings of the court, I submit to you that there existence of a crime wave so that they can operate in a better atmosphere to secure acquittal of criminal clients."
