At times their passing was brilliant to 4 behold, as they moved the ball down the floor flawlessly and with remarkable ease and con-! fidcnce. I And, the men of Coach Watts i fought so savagely on the boards that the Utes, except for a brief moment lale in the game when they fought frantically, but unsuccessfully, to sten the tide, had no great desire for mixing it with Cats in the battle for rebounds. j.

LOUIS (UP) Competitive bidding for the services of Dave Nicholson, an 18-year-old outfielder, was expected to reach its peak this weekend. The St. Louis Cardinals Friday withdrew their bid for the home town youth when things got too rich for their blood. A Cardinal spokesman said they placed a $50,000 limitation on Nicholson and i was known that the Chicago White Sox were willing to pay at least $100,000.

Nicholson became eligible for negotiations Wednesday when ais class graduated from high school, and every major league team except Detroit beat a path to his door to buy the player. over Utah Friday night in the Einar Nielsen Fieldhouse.

Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP) Fearless Fraley's facts and figures: Carmen Basilio is an opening 9 to 5 favorite to defend his middleweight title against Sugar Ray Robinson in their rematch at Chicago Stadium on March 25, but the fight experts contend that Robinson will be the choice at ring time. The reasoning is that Basilio will be more confident this time plus 1 the fact that each passing month takes so much more out of those 37-year-old Robinson legs. But Sugar Ray is only three pounds over the 160-pound middleweight limit as he goes into training and his new-found sharpness is expected to sway the price. Bill Talbert, America's Davis Cup captain, is highly optimistic over the chances of regaining the big silver mug the next time and believes that ths United States could have won it this time if Dick Savitt, Budge Patty and Ham Richardson had been on the team. Breaks Costly "All four singles matches were decided by one break in the fifth set," he asserted.
