Cwensboro Catholic came within inches of pulling one of the biggest upsets of the high school cage season last night but Owensboro used an overtime period to edge the Aces, 49-46. With the score knotted 45-45 and seconds left on the clock, Catholic had possession of the basketball and Richard Clark took a last-second shot but the ball bounced off the rim and ended the bid of the 1 surprising Aces.

The closeness of the game was even more shocking when you consider the performances of the teams in their last two outings. Owensboro played one of its better games of the sea-. son Friday night when the De-- mons breezed past Henderson City, 72-33, and the Aces had sunk to their lowest point of the season just last Wednesday rules against shouldering, hold- suuu was ueveiuueu uv i Pk Is 41 game was played Jan. 20, 1892, VMhnu4 tt I' iu as ton Colts have invited 46 players in the SACRAMENTO, Ky.
