KYLE Herald Sports Editor Fighting back courageously from an early second half slump which threatened them with a one-sided Millikin's big Blue cagers bowled over Wheaton's big Crusad- erg.

69-62. last night in Kintner gym before 3.800 screeching fans Conceded only an outside chance ol thwarting the Little Nine favorites after crashing to defeat at Wesleyan last Monday night, the Blue smacked the Crusaders with a whirlwind 10-point attack, in the last four minutes to blow the game wide open. It was Wheaton's first Little Nine setback in three starts and gave Millikin its third success in four outings against league competition. And it was the second time in the history of the Little Nine that a Wheaton team unbeaten in loop play suffered its first loss in Decatur. Two years ago Millikin didn't turn the trick until the final seconds.

LAST NIGHT, though, the Big Blue wrecked the Crusaders' vic tory stride in the three minutes preceding the instant when the clock turned red. And it was thundering climax to a dogged, thrill-packed rally which appeared destined never to be quite strong enough to overtake the Crusaderi. But when Scotty Steagall made a free throw with 3:55 minutes remaining to. tie the score at 59-59. it was the signal for the Blue to de liver its knockout punch.

Steagall started it by stealing an errant Wheaton bounce pass and whizzing down the' floor for a bas ket. Bob Murray drove in behind perfect blocking for a layup at 3:15. A minute later Steagall grabbed the ball and jumped for a 10-footcr. Then Murray slipped behind the desperate Crusaders and took a pass for a sleeper. THAT WAS MORE than enough, but Millikin.

disdainful of the op portunities offered to control the ball by the two minute rule, kept right on going and it was Alex Sai-ran who capped the 10-point spree with a basket on a fast break. That made it 69-59 and it mattered not that Dick Gross made a rebound and Jim Pooley a free- throw in the Jast 4a seconds. Prior to this electrifying finish, Wheaton's talented Crusaders big and smart and accurate had I wiped out a quick 7-0 lead Millikin acquired in the first four minutes and had weathered a late Blue spurt at the end of the first half to post a 34-32 intermission lead. Although Steagall tied it 34-34. at the start of the second half, the, Crusaders, led by Dick Messner's 10 points, galloped off to a 48-39 lead.

It was here that it appeared as though the Blue's resistance was broken, but Ralph Allan's battlers refused to crack and they came back gamely, scoring twice to Wheaton's once, until they were even. Then came the deluge. ONCE AGAIN IT was the Blue's one-two punch which turned the trick. Scotty Steagall, a whirling dervish through the wildly-paced second half, emerged with 23 points and top scoring honors. But it was Captain Bud Ormond who "lifted the Blue out of the depths of its nine point deficit and sparked the rally which finally overhauled 1 r- 1 i Bulldogs Mar Dedication Of Lakeview Gym, 54-42 15 8 12 944 13 9 11 1740 Cakland Arthur 6 742 16 739 At Macon MACON (391 Jacobs Crowe Wright Hastings Calluge Lancaster Carroll Totals STON1NGTON (32) Carpenter Jouglet Kiay Dunbar Dechert 4 4 4 6 0 0 0 1 2 Totals 1012 7 12 9 1139 12 6 4 1032 Macon Stonington At Moweaqua MOWEAQUA 131) Poisick Adamson Myers Robinson Fore Hayes Cutler Dial Jordan Totals FINDLAY (231 Massey Noel Scott Messmore Brooks Darnell Luthe 10 8 Moweao.ua Findlay 11 6 7 31 8 28 At Blue Mound 1LLTOPOLI8 (23) Rudd Morris Loose Porter Hohenstein BIUE MOUND (31) J.

The little gamester, back on the tournament trail after 11 months recovering from an auto accident, found nothing but trouble in the closing holes of his first round over the Cypress Point course.

He tacked up a five over par 77 after a provoking session that saw him three-putt two greens and twice visit the ocean beaches to cost himself extra strokes. While Hogan's game was being wrecked on the rocks and stubborn greens, his arch rival, Sam Snead, breezed home at the tail end of the day to go into the tournament lead. Snead tapped in a 15-footer for a birdie 3 on the 18th and posted a three under par 69. He was out in 36 and home in 33 for the. best score of the day.

The late finish enabled Snead to snatch the lead from stocky Newt Bassler, Carmel, whose 36-3470 had kept him in front of the field for much of the day. Hogan, winner of the professional end of Crosby's tournament a year ago, thus got off to' a miserable start. He-was one of the co-favorites. The 54-hole event is played on three courses. Tomorrows second round will take place on the Mone-terey peninsula layout.

The final round Sunday will be over the championship Pebble Beach couse. Dock Walker Voted Sportsmanship Award Boston, Jan. 13 (AP) 1 Doak Walker, Southern Methodist's three-time all-America, will be presented the Swede Nelson award for outstanding sportsmanship during the 1949 intercollegiate football season at the Gridiron club's annual dinner Saturday. He was selected by a 95-man national committee that included coaches, sports writers and radio sportscasters. The Southern Methodist- star's closest rival in the voting was Kyle Rote, his teammate, whose feat of scoring 20 points against Notre Dame impressed some of the selection committee.

DECATUR, after leading throughout the first half, fell the victim of a blazing Pekin hot streak in the third period, and the Reds found themselves trailing, 51-41, as the final quarter opened. At this point, Meurlot, who had managed only four points in the first three periods, came to life and hit nine points in the final frame to pace a 17-point splurge which put the Reds ahead, 58-56, with a minute remaining in the contest.

With only 45 seconds to go little Jimmy Olivero fouled Bob Rudolph, Chink guard, who connected with his free throw to narrow the Reds' margin to one point. The Decatur five started to stall, but Meurlot was fouled by Rudolph. With a chance to almost cinch at least a tie Meurlot missed the charity toss and Pekin's little sparkplug, Gary Kinder, grabbed the rebound. He took the ball down the floor, passed into Heihs on the post who wheeled, shot and connected to give Pekin J.tg one-point, JIM FOSTER dunked in 13 points for Reds in the first half to lead Decatur to an 18-12 first quart er advantage and a 33-28 half-time margin. He added six more in the last half to take scoring honors with 19 points.

Meurlot was runner up on the Reds' roster with 15 tallies. Oscar Tharp was high point man for the Chinks with 16, followed by Kinder and Rudolph, who hit 14 and 12 respectively. Decatur took over a 6-0 lead in the first minute and a half on baskets by Bill Bertsch, Don Fer-ral and Loren Longbons and maintained the advantage until midway in the third period. In the first half the Pekin cagers threatened to take over the lead only once when they narrowed the Reds' margin to 21-20 in the second period. Other than that, the Reds led from five to nine points until halftime.

THE CHINKS went off on a terrific scoring spree in the third period which produced 23 points to the -Reds' eight. Pekin took over the lead for the first time in the game at 38-37 with three minutes gone in the quarter when Kinder hit a jump shot from the free throw circle. Longbons connected with a charity toss to tie it up, but Harrj Pollman put the Chinks ahead again with a 10-foot hook shot. The Celestial cagers continued to enlarge their advantage until at one point early in the fourth period they were ahead by 11 points, 52-41. Decatur then took over and came through with its valiant 17-point effort.

The best Pekin could do in this final frame was score eight points, but it was enough. THIS WAS the Reds' second loss in 14 games and gives them a 4-2 record in Big 12 play. With this win, Pekin ooosted its record to 12-2, and brought its league mark up to the .750 mark with three wins and a single loss. The Pekin frosh-soph team made it a' perfect night for the home team by beating the Decatur Team, 49-46, in the preliminary game. DECATUR (58) Longbons.

Team mate Jack Casselman was close behind with 13. Lakeview's' sparkplug was ag gressive Jim York, former Argenta forward. York, who represented most of the bpartans rebound strength, was all over the floor, driving in for layups and playing well on defense. He scored 10 points but missed seven of nine free throws. Forward Don Winter also tallied 10 of Lakeview's points, making seven in the first period.

The win was St. Teresa's ninth in 13 games and the second in a row over Lakeview. Lakeview bowed by an almost identical margin 45-32 Dec. 20 at Woodrow Wilson gym. Lakeview remains winless after six games.

THE SCORE was tied twice and Lakeview was ahead once in the first quarter before Sohm's pivot shot and pair of free throws built up a 17-12 St. Teresa advantage. York's lr-yup sliced the count to 17- 14 at the quarter. Neither team accomplished much in the second quarter. Lakeview trailed by one point, 19-18.

during the early minutes but the Bulldogs managed to hold on to their three-point lead as each team scored nine points. St. Teresa led, 26-23, at half-time. Baskets by Sohm, Casselman and Burke shoved the score to 32-23 at the outset of the third period. Sohm's pivot shot made it 36-26 and Jack Collins' rebound goal gave the Bulldogs a 12-point bulge, 38-26.

With the score 39-28 starting the fourth quarter, St. Teresa clubbed the fading Spartans with three baskets in a row, Casselman, Jack Collins and Burke scoring, to carve out a 46-32 lead. LAKEVIEW THEN perked up, with Gerald Lawrence and Howard Hull finding the range for two goals apiece, but there" wasn't enough time for the Spartan threat to become dangerous. Jim Peters' long field goal with two seconds to play enabled St. Teresa's reserves to outscore Lake view.

KYLE Frank Russell, an Old Blue now in the Insurance business in Evans- ville, sends along some information which proves something which actually needs no proving that you never can tell about basketball.

During the recent Los Angeles Open. Coast writers re ferred to Henry Ransom as a "virtual unknown." Since Henry has been around for many years, and was way up near the top in money winnings last year, he probably wonders what it takes to become a "known" pro. Gordon Graham, sports editor of the Lafayette paper which took after Purdue coach Mel Taube, reported Illinois used an "international fouling" defense against the Boilermakers last Monday night. "The Illini are permitting an aggressive style of play to lead them into- numerous ridiculous fouls," Graham wrote. I wouldn't say the Illini foul intentionally; they just don't appear the least bit concerned whether or not they makt a foul when guarding.

The Tri-City Blackhawks scored 22 points in each quarter the other night while defeating the Anderson Packers. Three Illini are now play ing with the Blackhawks Dwight Eddleman, Walt Kirk and Gene Vance. They collected 46 points between them. And speaking of pro basketball, there were 88 fouls called in a game in New York recently, which may give you an idea why some of the cities which sponsored pro teams are weeping about the de creased attendance.
