Near intermission, with Utah leading 37-36, Bunte went on a spree that put the visitors ahead 44-33 at halftime. Then late in the second half, Denver pulled np to 74-63, only to have Bunte score seven straight points and ice the game. Bunte is a former South Denver High school star who enrolled at Colorado University before transferring to Utah. Morris Buck waiter scored 14 for Utah. Denver's top man was Ernie Uthgenannt with 16.

Wyoming got off to one "of its poorest starts in years; winning only two or three preseason encounters. But, Shelton didn't, seem to losses. He vowed things would campaign got underway. And, at first it appeared as if be boys rolled to victory I over Denver in their Skyline opener. New Mexico was next on the Laramie the Lobos would be easy for the I However, what the experts By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sports Writer This is the night when San Fran Cisco's national basketball cham pions will equal the all-time ma jor-college record of 39 straight victories.

The awesome Dons will turn the trick, everybody Is certain, by walloping outclassed Fresno State in San Francisco. Even Long. Is land University, co-holder of the record, is sure that the champions will win this big one. "Look forward to welcoming you into the 39-straight club," LIU telegraphed Don officials. "Good luck to you fine team." Nary a word of sympathy there for poor Fresno State, a nice little club with a respectable 6-3 record and undoubtedly all fired up in hopes of springing that would be one of the biggest upsets in sports history.

The Fresno boys, unfortunately, are likely to find San Francisco alb fired-up, too. The Dons are mighty upset by an NCAA ruling this week that K. C. Jones, their certain and a high-scoring star, won't be eligible for the NCAA tournament which everybody assumes the Dons will be playing in, come March. Could be the champs will take out their wrath on Fresno State.

Time Out For Exams The target is the record of 39 straight set by Long Island Uni- versityin 933-36 and tied by Seton Hall in "1940-41. If the Dons tie the mark tonight, they must take time out for mid-year exams before they try to set a new standard by beating dangerous California on Jan 28. The Dons' streak includes 26 games last year and, so far, 12 this year. But while the Dons tackle the record, their chief rivals in the race for this year's national cham pionship are far from idle. Two of them third-ranked North Carolina State and fourth-ranked Kentucky added impressive wins to their collection Thursday night.

N.C. State, the nation's top free- throw shooting squad, relied heavi ly on that talent in whipping Mary land, 73-64, to oust the Terps irom first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Maryland outscored the Wolfpack from the floor but State sank 25 of 31 free throw attempts. State ran its overall rec ord to 11-1 and its league record to 4-1 for a first-place tie with Duke and North Carolina. Kentucky Over Tulane Kentucky, perennial king of the Southeastern Conference.

pushed its overall mark to 8-2 and its league record to 2-0 with an 85-63 romp over Tulane. Utah, ranked No. 12 nationally. Roybal-of the Wolfpack, the Skyline's newest 'scoring sensation, would pour 37 points through the hoop as New Mexico scored one of the loop's biggest upsets in years by downing the Cowboys. Could Hardly Believe It It was such an upset that Wayne Soffe of the iBYU athletic department said "I had to read the score twice to believe it and I thought sure it must have been a misprint." Anyway, Shelton must be getting a little desperate and when Ev gets desperate he is bound to be at his fighting best and that's probably what is worrying Stan Watts of the Cougars.

And, ol Ev's mental processes seem to work, overtime and i become even sharper when things start, to look the darkest for the CowboysJ1 You can' bet one thing, Evwill use every trick in the book to win Saturday's clash plus a few tricks that probably aren't in the book. i --( Shelton knows that one more defeat at this stage of the conference race could be disastrous for his charges.

Bunte sank 38 points, and beat Musial Inks 1956 Pact By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer Slugging Stan Musial of the Car dinals has signed his sixth straight contract for $80,000, and as ruts go, that's a mighty fine one to fall into. At the same time, Musial's room mate and sidekick, Al (Red) Schoendienst, signed a $40,000 pact for the third straight year, and that can't exactly be called a bad habit, either. "I'm very happy with my con tract," said Musial. who will take home approximately $30,000 after taxes, while Schoendienst, who stands to net about $20,000, also expressed satisfaction. Neither had a particularly good season last year, Musial skidding from a 1954 batting mark of .330 to .319, and Schoendienst falling from .315 to .268.

Others Come To Terms Musial 'and Schoendienst were the "big ones" to agree to terms Thursday, several players on other clubs also signed con tracts.
