Riders Score af mm i ma 1 5V Rent I Three Times From Court By Carl Kane. ROOSEVELTS vision of a city basketball title turned into a nightmare on the Coe court Fri- Say night as the Wilson Ramblers lapped a 37-11 defeat on the hapless Roughriders. Roosevelt Coach Clem Carney was virtually beating his head on the scorer's table with a Dagwood "give-me-strength" attitude following the game. "How can a team take 83 shots md make only three?" moaned Carney. Wilson's victory left Tranklin top in the city standings with Badgers Sure To Hold Cage Lead Tonight CHICAGO (UP) The Wisconsin Badgers, first-place team in the Big Nine basketball race, meet Minnesota at Madison tonight, certain to retain their lead no matter whether they win or lose.

Three other Big Nine game are on tonight's program, but none of the competing teams, even by winning, can achieve a tie with Wisconsin. Other games on the schedule bring Iowa to Illinois. Ohio State to Michigan and Purdue against Northwestern at the Chicago stadium. Indiana, the second-place club, meets Earlham in a non-league match. By doing so the Hoosiers assured Wisconsin of its hold on first place.

If Indiana were to play a league game and win tonight while Wisconsin lost, the two would be tied for the lead. Wisconsin was favored to knock down Minnesota's challenging quintet, bvrt not by a large margin. The Badgers have been tough at home all season, losing only one game. Minnesota has been spotty, winning at horrfe aad losing all but one of thpir mo Kin i f. i 'A victories and one defeat.

Michigan was a slight favorite to ton Ohin Slate iia-tiriilsrl Watch Rush By Promoters For Graziano By Lawton Carver. NEW YORK (INS) The nation's boxing promoters are on a $100,000 hot spot today. As a result of the New York commission's revocation of Rocky Graziano's license these various men behind the boxing business are faced by the necessity of quickly making one of two choices: (1) They can go along with the New York ruling in the interest of maintaining some outward show of interest in the Integrity of boxing, or (2) they can react as expected wade in punching for a chance to use the discredited fighter. The action putting Graziano on the shelf, perhaps for life, automatically canceled his world middleweight title shambles with champion Tony Zale, acheduled at Madison Square Garden March 21. This prize package thus went on the open market to be grabbed by the first in with the best offer.

By virtue of the carnage they created last summer when Zale knocked out Graziano in a thrill-splattered slugging match, the encore is an assured success. It would draw currency up in the six figures if held without undue ballyhoo at Swizzle Switch, and in places like Chicago would be one of the big things of the moment. Before all this ruction they spoke of a $350,000 gate at Madison Square Garden. However, there Is another side to all this, despite the National Boxing association's reluctance to concur with New York. Promoters in that organization's widespread territory, it would seem, are morally obligated to go along with law and order.

President Abe J. Greene, of the National Boxing Association has taken the attitude that this scandal "was spawned in New York," which is not a member of the NBA "and the latter will shortly consider what action, if any, will be taken." This is almost certain to bring out a rash of offers for Graziano. He is not only a fighter now, but a front-page national celebrity. Promoters could even charge a little extra for giving the customers a chance to see in action a fighter who has been barred in his own state for life. The only states where he is barred under the rule, besides New York, are Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

The latter is an NBA state, but also has a working agreement with New York. Assuming that Graziano's appeal to the state supreme court next week will not reverse the commission's action, it seems only logical that the NBA should immediately back up New York for purposes of providing precedent. New York is the most important single state in boxing because virtually all title fights are held in New York City and, week in and week out. boxing shows are bigger attractions here than anywhere else. However, the NBA governs boxing in more than 40 states and to make rulings of this kind stick the NBA should back up New York, regardless of bickering over minor matters.

Meantime, watch the promoters rush in. UVUMilJ The Buckeyes, after a disappoint Bob Sullivan, Star Left Halfback, Lost to Hawks ing sian in tneir effort to repeat as champions, have showed great improvement lately, however, and eriod.

It will be Purdue's first venture on the stadium court this season, and that fact may hurt, although the Boilermakers have been hard to beat at home. Iowa was a decided underdog against Illinois.

Even if Wisconsin lost, the Badgers would still hold a half-game advantage over the second-place teams.

Tex, (INS) The nation's topflight golfers set out Saturday in frigid Texas weather in pursuit of dapper Jim Demaret, who set the pace Friday with a brilliant 62 in the first round of the $10,000 Texas Open golf tournament. Demaret's nine-under par card equalled the PGA's competitive record for tournament play and the Houston swinger came within inches of shaving a stroke from that figure.

A five-foot putt on the par four 16th fell short and gave Demaret his only bogey for the day. Demaret's score gave him a share in the all-time record held jointly by Ben Hogan. Walter Hagen, Lawson Little, Bryon Nelson, Jim Ferrier and Herman Keiser. The transplanted Texan, former individual match game champion, opened with games of 191 and 193. His third game was 225.

Then he tossed- a tremendous 279 followed by a robust 266. He slowed down to 225, 201 and finished with 170 for a game average of 218.7. Bomar went to the top in the chase for the $5,000 first pjize with a 115-pin margin over Otis M. Collins of South Bend, who had moved into the lead early Friday morning. Sixty-eight squads of 32 men each will have rolled in the rich classic by the time the meet ends Sunday night.
