(U.R) The Syracuse Nationals, experts at making baskets and bucks, will collect $3,000 this week for standing by while the Minneapolis Lakers and Anderson Parkers decide who will fill the other spot in the National Basketball Arsociation playoff finals.

Iowa State Teachers college edged by Cornell college of Iowa Saturday night to win its 2nd straight title in the National AAU senior wrestling championships. The Iowa Teachers' victory followed its triumph in the National Collegiate championships last week and their triumph in the NAAU last year. The Cedar Falls wrestlers scored 44 points in winning the team title while Cornell college made 40. Cornell had led its intra state rival going into Saturday's semifinals. Tutors Win Five individual ttfleholders re New Haven, (P) John Marshall, the sleek Australian, Saturday night bettered 2 more world swimming records including one made by Japan'6 great Hironoshin Furuhashi Marshall sped the 400 meters free style in 4:29.5 and 440 yards in 4:31.2.

Marshall in winning his 3rd national AAU individual crown placed his name boldly alongside swimming's immortals. Only 5 men in the 46 years of the American championships have won 3 crowns, and none has assaulted world records the way Marshall i iimtauJti.n a Garden 66-59 New York, (IP) A smoother working West All-Star team. sparked by players from the Big Ten, Missouri Valley and Pacific coast, whipped the East All-Stars, 66-59, before 16.000 at Madison Square Garden Saturday night in the 5th annual basketball All-Star game for the benefit of the Herald-Tribune Fresh Air fund. With Dick Schnittker of Ohio State, Paul Unruh of Bradley, George Yardley of Stanford, and George Stanich of UCLA alternating in sinking baskets, the West pulled away in the last 10 minutes to win handily. Schnittker, later selected as the most valuable player in the game, hit for 14 points.

Unruh, with his left handed jump shot, got 12. Stanich with 9 and Yardley with 8 added 17 points between them, mostly in the 2nd half. Charley Share of Bowling Green, dunked 14 points for the East squad. Gerry Calabrese, of St. John's got 11 and Bob Cousy, Holy Cross star, 10 in addition to handing out 4 scoring assists.

Hog an Fires Hot Warmup Rounds for Masters Tourney By STERLING SLAPPEY Augusta, (JP) The discomforting story of Ben Hogan's hot golf at the Augusta National was the greeting for the main installment of golfers Monday when they arrived for the Masters tournament. Hogan's golf was interrupted last year by a bus accident at a time when Sammy Snead, Cary Middlecoff and others couldn't stop him. Apparently an "interruption" is all that occurred to his game when a big highway bus and Hogan's car tangled in West Texas. Three practice rounds in 4 days at the National indicate that Ben's steadiness, stamina and shotmaking are sharpening towards championship shape. They get the major test Thursday through Sunday.

Little Ben's putter acted up occasionally Sunday but he still shot a par 72. Saturday he got a 68 and Thursday, one of the best rounds of golf ever shot over the Augusta National a 66. Hogan putted out his short shots for practice instead of picking up as most golfers do in warm up rounds. Hogan has been practicing for the Masters while the main body of the professional golfing troupe played the Azalea Open at Wilmington, N. Car.

Hogan has won every major title in America except the Masters, some of them many times. He's been in the Masters money winning bracket 7 times, but vic tory has always eluded him. Des Moines Runnerup in National Deaf Meet Washington, (JP) Little Rock won the national basketball tournament for the deaf Saturday night, beating Des Moines 60-58 in a nip-and-tuck game. The Little Rock-Des Moines game was a close match all the way, with 3 points the greatest margin for either side at any time. The halftime score was 30-30.

High scorer for Des Moines was Marvin Tuttle with 19 points. Wal-lis Beaty of Little Rock accounted for 20 points. Allison Baseball Schedule April 10 Bristow, here. April 13 Dumont, here. April 17 Shell Rock, there.

Loras was 2nd with 22 followed by Luther with 191 and Wartburg with 8J. the series, 2 games to 1, and boost- ed their post-season earnings to $7,500.

The Nationals collected $2,500 for finishing first in the eastern division's regular season race, another $2,500 for eliminating Philadelphia in the division's semifinal playoffs, and the same amount for beating the Knickerbockers. They get $3,000 for doing nothing this week because they had the best overall regular season record in the league and draw the honor of standing by while Minneapolis, the central division playoff winner, clashes with Anderson, the western division winner, for the other championship playoff position. Syracuse beat New York with a 3l-point outburst in the final quarter. Syracuse led most of the way but held a narrow 62-60 lead as the 4th quarter began. Then the Syracuse running game paid off.

Dolph Schayes, who topped the individual scoring with 24 points, John Macknowski and George Ratkovicz, led the surge that knocked the Knickerbockers out of the playoffs. Sports Parade By MILTON RICIIMAX New York, (U.R) For a life of loneliness and solitude join the Boston Red Sox. There is little horseplay and no cliques to speak of on the club. Each player does his work with an absolute minimum 6f managerial guidance. Thats the way Joe McCarthy wants it.

"When a player comes up to us, he generally a big leaguer, Mc Carthy says. "That kind doesn't need much instruction. They're professionals who know their jobs. All of them know, or should know, that they do the actual playing on the field, rot me. Silent Treatment McCarthy's super-silent treat ment, of course, is a little rough on rookies who frequently wonder whether anyone knows they are around.

During a recent one-week stretch at the club's Sarasota, training camp, McCarthy made only 2 brief remarks to players on the field. He told Pitcher Al Papai to fol low through more on throws to first base and instructed Rookie Catcher Sammy White, since shipped to Roanoke of the Piedmont league, to shift his weight to the front foot when swinging at a pitch. Birdie Tebbetts, the most gregarious player on the club, watched White line a curve ball to left field and then streak for first base. Attempting to engage McCarthy in conversation, Tebbetts offered: "I'd like to have the future that kid has, wouldn't you?" McCarthy watched White tour the bases but said nothing. Tebbetts, not easily discouraged, repeated the question.

McCarthy's Observation McCarthy sighed and then said, "sure I'd like to have that kid's future but not if it meant that I would have to go through all those past years. McCarthy wasn't heard from again for another 72 hours. Southpaw Mel Parnell, a 25-game winner last season, was teu-ing a rookie about the high-priced custom-built automobile he purchased over the winter. "Why not," replied the recruit, "you're a 25-game winner, aren't you?" "On this ball club," Parnell shot back, "it doesn't mean a thing. I won 25 games last year but that's all past.

I have to be concerned with this year. You can coast up here. When Princeton won the East ern Intercollegiate basketball league championship this year it was its first such victory since 1932. ERFECTION VMIU. BE.

reached when the Auto can be made fool- IN-THE-OTHER-CAR-PROOF Minnesota Bids for Cage Tourney Finals in NCAA Chicago, (U.R) A spokesman for the National Collegiate Athletic Association said today he understood that the University of Minnesota had invited the NCAA to hold the finals of its 1951 basketball tournament in Minneapolis. However, Walter Byers, assistant to Executive Secretary Kenneth L. "Tug" Wilson, said that the tournament committee has not recommended a site to the NCAA executive committee. He added that the executive group has not selected a site. The executive committee normally sets the date and site for the tournament at its June meeting.

Byers said it was uncertain whether the committee would vary this procedure to name the 1951 site at a meeting scheduled here this week. Iowa State Evens Tutor Series 10-3 Ames, (JP) The Iowa State college baseball team whipped Iowa Teachers 10-3 Saturday to gain a split in the first series of the season for both schools. The Tutors won 6-0 Friday. The Cyclones got 10 hits and took advantage of 3 Tutor errors for their 10 tallies. Iowa State went ahead on a 3-run burst in the 2nd inning and never was threatened.

The Young Men's Bureau of tiie Cedar Rapids Chamber of Commerce, sponsors of the meet the past 7 years, said it had cancelled the meet because it did not feel able to underwrite the $9,000 touiney budget this year.

Plan Cestac-Maxim Bout in Des Moines Moines, (U.R) Former Heavyweight Champion Jack Dempsey and Pinkie George, Des Moines fight promoter, Monday planned an outdoor 15-round heavyweight bout here for next June. Dempsey said he hoped to match Abel Cestac and Joey Maxim, ranking heavyweights, for the fight. The former champ owns Ces-tac's contract, and said he was "pretty sure" he could sign Maxim.

He won 12 games last season for the Bucs and had 106 strikeouts. If he can overcome the sophomore jinx, he may be a big help to Ralph Kiner and company. Petiit, High Bonus Rookie, Impressive With New Orleans By JAMES SAGGUS New Orleans, (JP) Paul Pettit, Pittsburgh's $100,000 bonus pitcher, has made an impressive beginning in his professional baseball career. The 18-year-old California southpaw rookie was farmed to New Orleans of the Class AA Southern Association for one year's seasoning. Sunday Pettit went to the mound for the 3rd time during exhibition play and inherited the tough job of preserving a no-hitter.

Another New Orleans rookie. Bob Purkey, had pitched the first 4 innings against Nashville, another Southern Association team, witnout giving up a hit. And Purkey had singled in the only run. But Pettit came through in fine style and New Orleans won the no-hit game 1-0. Paul hasn't opened up yet.

General Manager Roy Harney of Pittsburgh said he will not be expected to be a regular turn pitcher for New Orleans. Harney said Pettit may not even be a starter during the earlier part of the season. As a bonus player, Pettit must go up to Pittsburgh next year. So far he looks good for a rookie getting his first taste of pro baseball in a fast AA league. But Harney said the Pittsburgh organization won't be stuck if Pettit never becomes a good pitcher.

The reason, Harney said, is Pet-tit's speed, fielding ability and batting form. "This kid has the makings of a great outfielder." Harney added. "That's how Babe Ruth became famous you know, not as a pitcher." In his 5 innings Sunday, Paul walked 4 men and struck out one. But the most impressive thing about the youthful 205-pounder is his poise under fire. Paul's $100,000 bonus makes him probably the most publicized rookie of the year.

But it hasn't affected his relationship with his teammates. They're all pulling for the likeable rookie. Three records one world, one intercollegiate and one league were set during the 1950 eastern intercollegiate league swimming season.

mis, m. did. The listed record for 400 meters is 4:34.6 by Furuhashi, who was the sensation of the outdoor championships last summer in Los Angeles, and the 440 yard mark is 4:38.5 by Bill Smith. Furuhashi has a time of 4:33.3 for 400 meters pending, but Marshall's super performance Saturday night knocked almost 4 seconds off it. 2 Previous Victories Marshall, who Friday night won the 1,500 meters and Saturday night the 220 yard championship, set out to spread eagle the field in the 440.

He had a yard lead on the first lap and at the end he was 3 quarters of a length of the 25-yard pool ahead of Jimmy McLane, another Yale freshman who was the defending champion: Up to now the high mark of the indoor championships was Johnny Weismuller's triple victory in 1927 when he set 3 meet records. Marshall concluded his night's work with the satisfaction of 3 individual gold medals and 3 meet rec ords, 2 of which surpassed world standards. Marshall swam only one race but was timed for both distances. The 44u yards is about 10 feet longer than 400 meters. Frosh Win Team Title His victories led the Yale freshmen to the national team cham pionship an unprecedented occurrence.

The yearlings piled up 43 points to 35 for Ohio State, national collegiate champions. The New Haven Swim club, chiefly the Yale varsity, was 3rd with 32, fol lowed by the Brighton Swim club with 27 and Michigan State with 17. Bruce Harlan of Ohio State add ed the 3-meter dive to the one meter championship he won Fri day. If Oaio State could have won the 300 yard medly relay it would have meant the team championship, but the Big Ten champions finished last. The race was won by the New Haven Swim club in 2:51.6.

Marshall's brilliance put everything else at the indoor championships in the a w. Clarke Scholes of Michigan State, the national collegiate 100 yard champion, won the AAU title too, in 51.3 in a tight finish with Richard Weinberg, former Michigan star. Wally Ris, 5 time champion, was eliminated in the preliminaries. SPORTS 13 New York. (A) Mr.

Usually Reliable Source (a very useful citizen at times) pops up with the red hot rumor that the University of South Carolina and Clemson are due to feel the string of the NCAA sanity code. Source says they've already been notified that they're not in compliance and at least one of them will reply that it doesn't intend to change. Stanley Harris, son of Manager Bucky of the Senators, is a member of the University of Virginia baseball squad and also is a good brain and glove man but not so hot with the wood.

University High's mile medley team of Nolf, Cold-snow, Miller and Ewalt won that event with a record time of 3:55.5.

The old mark was 3:58.2 by Neva da last year. Nevada, which led all through the meet to the last event, chopped almost 3 seconds off the record for the 2-mile relay. The Nevada team of Dick McConnell, Phil Hartman, Chuck Case and Ray McConnell ran the race in 8:39.8 to beat the old record of 8:42.7 by Denison in 1940. Clarion's Tom Shupe increased his own record in the broad jump established last year. His jump of 21 feet, 7 inches in the prelim inaries bettered his old mark of 21-6.

Bob Ball of New Hampton set the other record in the 880-yard run with a time of 2:05.9, beating the old mark by Higgins of Marion, 1940, by almost 2 seconds.

"Dutch" Harrison, the old pro from St. Andrews, 111., doesn't just swear at a golf ball when it stops behind a tree. From there, he plops it down 15 feet from the pin and shoots par for the 403-yard hole. That's how Harrison played the last hole of the $10,000 Azalea Open tournament Sunday and it was a sample of the fast finish which won him the $2,000 first money. Harrison snot 2 birdies on the final 9, one on the 12th and another on the 14th, to break out of a tie with George Fazio of Washington, D.

C. 2 holes made the difference. The Illinois veteran won by 2 strokes, posting a one-under-par 71 for the final round. He finished with a 280 against Fazio's 282, but it was his recovery shot from behind that tree on the final hole that thrilled the fans. Cary Middlecoff, U.

S. Open champion from Memphis, and Joe Kirkwood, of Hollywood, tied for 3rd with 283's. Kirkwood shot a 2-under-par 70 on the final 18, while -Middlecoff finished with a par 72. Clayton Hefner of Charlotte, N. finished with a 3-under-par 69 for a 284 and 5th place.

Dave Douglas of Newark, Jimmy Dcmaret of Ojai, and Lloyd Mangrum-of Chicago tied for 6th place with 285 s. Villemain Fights Graham as Step to Bout With LaMotta Philadelphia, (TO Robert Villemain, the colorful Frenchman who considers it his patriotic duty to return the middleweight boxing crown to his homeland, meets a "spoiler" Monday night in young Otis Graham. The pint-sized Frenchman he stands but 5 feet 6 is filled with a consuming ambition to bring home the crown he insists his countryman, Marcel Cerdan, would have regained had not fate canceled the opportunity. Cerdan was killed in a plane crash while flying here for a return bout with Champion Jake LaMntta. LaMotta won the title by beating Cerdan in Detroit.

Villemain already hss defeated LaMotta in a non-title match and now is pressing for a meeting at championship weights. Two things stand in the Frenchman's way. The first and most immediate problem is Monday's 10 rounder at the arena against Graham. Should he lick Graham, Villemain then probably would have to face Ray "Sugar" Robinson with the winner emerging No. 1 challenger to LaMotta.

Bob Feller Slugged for 12 Runs by Cubs Tucson. (U.R) Luke Easter's consistent slugging and Bob Feller's repeated failures were the talk of the Cleveland Indians Monday. Easter cracked 2 homers, running his spring total to 7, as the Tribe beat the Chicago Cubs 13-12 Sunday. Enthusiasm over him was dampened by Feller's weakness. The once-mighty blazeballer gave up all 12 runs, including 2 homers, during his 6 innings on the mound.
