I N'FW YORK, Feb 21 (UP) —
The big boys received big scares
la-t night, but they emerged to-
day still atop the basketball
heap.
It wasn't easy. Duuuesne
needed the heroics of an obscure
sophomore to lick Indiana state,
55 to 51, ill the last 30 seconds
of play, Bradley required a chok-
ing second half detense to come
from behind and lick St, l.ouis
University, 52 to 15. And City
College of New York fed the ball
desperately to hot Al Roth for
l ight late |M)lnts and a fMi to (12
conquest "I unheralded Fordham.
At half-time there were upsets
|in the making across the nation,
j Duquesoe was tied 30-30. Brad-
j ley trailed, 31-27, City led by
jotie scant point, 3(5 35.
Bradley was taken aback by
'the fast St. Louis start. But in
J the second half the Braves, who
i now have won 23 and lost three,
1 held St. Louis to three field
goals. The Billlkens had made
good 12 of their 25 tries in the
first half. The win broke the tie
between the two teams and sent
Bradley to the top of the Mis-
Isouri Valley Conference stand-
ings. The league champion
plays the winner of the Big Sev-
en Conference for an NCAA tour-
nament berth.
The victories last night kept
Dc-uuesne, Bradley and City
rushing towards the post-season
touranemnt, but one team al-
ready was promised its extra
dates at New York's Madison
Square Garden.
Undefeated Holy Cross was as-
signed the district one, or New
England, spot in the NCAA. The
Crossmen have not been beaten
in 22 games and it's unlikely
that they will run into trouble
in their remaining six games.

won a decision.

Dodgers Have Trouble
Signing Carl Furillo
NEW YORK, Feb. 21 (UP)—
Clouting Carl Furillo, the
Brooklyn outfielder who's holler-
ing for $25,000, is expected to
cease clamoring long enough to-
day to sign for about $18,500 -
$6,000 more than he got last
year.
Although the Dodgers were
being cagey regarding announce-
ment of Furillo's signing, there
were strong indications that
the 27-year-old slugger who
batted .324 last year will come
to Brooklyn from his Stony
Creek Mills, Pa., home for the
purpose of formally accepting
