LSU, Vandy, Kentucky Lead In Southeastern ATLANTA, Jan. 20.— (&) —Ken tucky, the preseason favorite, stood out with Louisiana Sf ’te and Van derbilt today as the Ringleaders of the Southeastern conference bas ketball race after a hectic week which saw two other favorites, Tu lane and Georgia, suffer their first set-backs. The Wildcats, defending cham pions and beaten only once in 13 games, left no doubt as to their power by downing Tennessee, 50 to 31, in the top game of the week. Alabama, an in-and-out team, tras "in” with a surprising upset of Tulane, 39-28, and “out” in a re turn game with Georgia Tech, Los ing 36-30. Pre-game dope had the outcomes figured just the opposite. Vanderbilt, after losing its open er to Louisville, racked up three victories by whipping Georgia, 44 41, southwestern of Memphis, 38-20 and Mississippi, 39-31. In other games last week, LSU beat Alabama, 46-28; Florida beat Camp Blanding, 64-40; Mississippi beat Millsaps, 58-33; Kentucky beat Xavier of Cincinnati, 62-36; Geor gia Tech whipped Auburn, 53-26, but lost to Duke, 54-39; Tulane beat Mississippi State, 66-50, to recover from the loss to Alabama, but Georgia lost its second straight tilt in bowing to South Carolina, 42-30. This week’s schedule is compa ratively light, only five conference games being listed. Georgia plays return games with Auburn, Ala bama and Vanderbilt, and Georgia Tech is host to Alabama, Vander bilt and Tennessee. Seven other non-league games, headed by Ken tucky’s battle with Notre Dame at Louisville Saturday night, complete the card._ BASKETBALL SCORES NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—(yP>—This week’s outstanding college basketball games in ^Monday—Iowa at Chicago.

DACHAU ISOLATED BY ARMY ORDERS DACHAU, Germany, Jan. 20— (U.PJ—The U. S. 3rd Army’s prison er of war camp at Dachau was isolated' today and its security guard strengthened to prevent further mass suicides by renegade soldiers such as that in which 10 Russian Cossacks ’ killed them selves yesterday. However, there were no indica tions that renegade Poles, Romani ans, Bulgarians and Hungarians held here plan such extreme meas ures to prevent their repatriation as taken by the Cossacks of Lt. Gen, Andrei A. Vlassov captured by the Americans after fighting on the side of the Germans. Camp officials said a group ship ped yesterday were the last Rus sians scheduled for forcible repa triation. The route of the train was a top military secret, but if it maintains schedule it should arrive in the Russian zone late to day. American guards here express ed concern for the safety of their buddies who are guarding the 240 Russians being taken back to face treason charges. The Russians will be turned' over to Russian guards when they reach the demarcation line. Each of the seven freight cars carrying the 240 Russians are guarded by two American and two Polish guards. "That is a trouble train," said one soldier. "All those Russians are not going to see the Russian zone. They’ll do anything to keep from going back. They will try to break out of the cars or hang themselves or slash their throats or something.” me Russians race proDabie ex ecution for having thrown in their lot with the Germans and fought with the Nazi army during the war. Other Eastern European renegades held here also face the same probable fate. The Hungar ians are the next large national group facing shipment home. Dachau was isolated as an in vestigation of the Russian suicides was carried out. A United Press reporter and an Acme photograph er were ordered off the grounds and the area was closed to any ex cept essential military workers. The news blackout was said to be for ‘‘security reasons” and a local officer assumed that it was because of “too many interna tional angles.” (The U. S. 3rd Army public relations department at Frankfurt denied that a “security blackout” had been established at Dachau, saying that newsmen were barred from the camp because of con fusion brought about by the Rus sian riot.) Two Russian officers Visited the camp briefly Saturday afternoon, it was learned, about six hours after the suicides. One of the. guards who broke into the Russian barracks, where the Russians were attempting to kill themselves rather than board the train to repatriate them, told of seeing five men suspended from the rafters by strips of shirts and bedsheets as well as ropes. Some were already dead and others were twisting in their death throes. On the floor were some who had fallen when the make shift lines with which they at tempted to hang themselves broke under the strain. *u?thfrs w.ho had slashed their thioats with concealed razor blades were lying in pools of their bl°',d. pna lay beside a window he had smashed to obtain glass to gash his throat from ear to ear Another had driven a large nail through his throat with his fist. .

Wildcats, Durham Leading Eastern Loop WILMINGTON FACES ’BIRDS ON FRIDAY Comparitive Figures Show New Hanover As Strong er Quintet By GENE WARREN After going deep into the record book, the result shows that *the Wilmington Wildcats’ offense and defense in their three victories this season tops anything Durham can place on the block. Coach Leon Brodgen’s bas ketters have run up a grand total of 144 points on their opponents in three conference games for an average of 48 tallies a game com pared to the Bulldogs’ record of 114 for 38 per contest. The de fense used by the Hanoverians has held opponents to an average of only 23 markers, while Dur ham’s percentage is 26. These figures may not tell the whole story, though, since the Bulldogs have taken on better op position than the Wildcats, includ ing powerful Fayetteville. Next Friday may be a better ex ample of the two team’s com parative strength for Coach Paul Sykes’ defending conference cham pions battle the fourth place Caps at Durham. Wilmington plays host to the cellar dwelling Rocky Mount Blackbirds, who are still looking for a loop win. In their last engagement Rocky Mount was found easy victims for Fayette ville, 42 to 28. In Friday’s Durham-Wilson con flict the Dogs led by Captain Whit Cobb with 14 points, held off Wil nnn V»ir rttmrfnr pnnrap rtf R 20 to 11, 31 to 16, and finally 37 to 24. Tunney Brooks, the best Cylone player, paced the losers with 11 markers. As always, the Durhamites turned in a good show from the foul zone, dropping in nine points via the free throw method. Although the Bulldogs substi tuted freely, using 13 cagers, the first team men’s totals were as follows: McDonald 4, Stokes 6, Penny 3, and Downey 5. Zack Downey, the tallest bas ketballer on the initial string, closed his current basketball ca reer in this tilt as he goes into the Army, Wednesday. Coach Leon Brodgen will begin preparation for the Blackbird tussle, Monday, following the mid term examinations.. The Cat mentor’s offensive plans are ex pected to be smoothed out, since the team’s failure to hit the bas ket regularly in the first period of the Raleigh battle was very no ticeable. The Jayvees will probably have a game scheduled also with some neighboring school. The first string under the direction of Coach Wallace West are at guards, Homer Ellis and Jerry Hilburn, at center, Linwood Taylor, and at forward, Mike Austin and the club’s top scorer, Joe Warren. Among the reserves, who showed up well last week in the Leland game, are Fred ‘Bo’ Babson, Windell Hickman, Linwood Gris som, Clarence Hilhurn, and Pat Kelly. Carolina Leaguers To Extend Season BURLINGTON, Jan. 20.— (JP) — Directors of the class C Carolina basketball league voted here today to add two playing dates to the league’s 140-game schedule, and to allow five veterans on each club this year instead of three as in the past. Each of the loop’s eight clubs was represented, and no dissenting votes were recorded against either major proposal. The 142-game schedule adopted will begin April 24 and end Sept. 9, two days later than originally plan ned. Each club will play 71 games at home.

Seaports SAIGON, Jan. 20.—(A1)—Natural rubber is now flowing in a steady stream to the United States from China, purchasing agents of the Reconstruction Finance corpora tion disclosed today. * The Liberty ship Red Rover is at sea with 7,702 tons, the agents said, and the Liberty ship Mary Ann Livermore is scheduled to sail tomorrow with 8,000 tons. The Lib erty ship Floyd Spencer in harbor is waiting the loading of at least 7,000 tons. AGED ITALIAN DIES CLARION, Pa., Jan. 20— (ffl — Pedro Peter Pascorall, a native of Rome, Italy, died today at the age of 107. He was a former section foreman for the Baltimore and Ohio railroad here. In The Hands Of (Capable) Receivers Lopezy Hayes And Ferrell Ring Bell As Durable Catchers By CHIP ROYAL AP Newsfeatures Sports Editor NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—All base ball fans should doff their hats to catchers Al Lopez, Rick Fer rell and Frank Hayes. Those three fellows are a credit to the game. Al, of course, is the durable re ceiver for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Rick is the Washington Senators’ backstop, and Frank has been do ing the catching for Cleveland since Connie Mack swapped him for Buddy Rosar last season. Lopez is the king of all the guys behind the plate as the 1946 sea son takes shape! And, that ex clamation goes in more ways than Tampa, Fla., has caught more one. First of all, the Spaniard from games—1,805—than any other fel low who ever put on the mask and shin guards. Until last season, Gabby Hart nett.held the record with 1,793 ap pearances behind the plate. But, Al has proven himself to be much more than just a backstop. More than one pitcher in the Na tional League has confessed he owes his winning ways to Lopez’s smart maneuvers. Stories about games the Spaniard won by using his head are more numerous than those about your favorite baseball character. For the records, Lopez started in baseball with his native Tampa team in the Florida State League in 1925. He played with the Brook lyn Dodgers, Boston Braves and Pittsburgh starting in the majors in 1928. Al's batting average is around .260, and his fielding around .950, and he caught 100 or more games for 13 seasons. Like Lopez, Ferrell is small, weighing around ®60. Rick has been in the American League since 1929 when he started with the St. Louis Browns. Since then he has been with the Boston Red Sox and Senators, gone back to the Browns, and returned to Washington. Rick has just about the toughest job in either league because he has to catch all those knuckleball pitchers down in the capital. He’s had more injured fingers than any other backstop. Ferrell led all the American League catchers in fielding in 1934 and 1936, caught over 100 major league games a season for 11 years, and has been selected on six All Star teams. In all, he has received 1,769 games in the junior circuit, 48 more than Ray Schalk’s record. Hayes, who is heavier than his fellow record-breakers, weighing 195, caught 155 consecutive games in 1944 to establish a major league record jointly with catcher Ray Mueller of the Cincinnati Reds. Mueller then went into the armed forces and Frankie con tinued catching every day in 1945 even though he was traded in the middle of the season to the In dians. Now, as the 1946 champion ship fight starts, Hayes has re ceived 308 straight games. Every time he starts behind the plate he’ll be making a new record. Frank started with the A’s in I 1933, went to Buffalo for one sea son, 1935, and then played wit! Mr. Mack until he was traded tc the Bnrowns in June, 1942. He cams back to Philadelphia in 1944. The big Cleveland catcher has appeared in three All-Star games and is listed in the record books as having tied a mark on July 25, 1936, by hitting four doubles in one game.

Y. Yankees NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—(/P>— Clarence (Ace) Parker, veter an halfback who won the Na tional Football League’s most valuable player award in 1940, has signed a contract with the New York Yankees of the all America conference, the Yan< kee office announced today. Parker, who played pro-foot ball five years before the war, returned to the gridiron last season after 43 months in the Navy and was a member of the National League Club operated jointly by Boston and Brooklyn. Dan Topping, owner v * the Brooklyn franchise, recently shifted It to the all-America circuit. A 1936 all-America selection at Duke, Parker has been of fered the managership of the Portsmouth, Va., Arsenal Club in the Piedmont league. UNBEATEN QUINTS BECOMING SCARCE NEW YORK, Jan. 20—<1B—Few, if any, college basketball teams will finish this season undefeated. Seven more quints were chopped off the select list fast week leaving only five major outfits—West Virginia, Notre Dame, Holy Cross, Gettys burg and Navy—with a clean slate. And the way things are going it apparently won’t be long before they tumble. West Virginia ran its string to 11 by nicking Penn State and Carne gie Tech. Notre Dame made it 10 in a row by taking St. Louis and Great Lakes, coming from behind in each game. Holy Cross. Gettys burg each won two more games to make their record 7-0 while Navy knocked over Maryland and George Washington for a 4-0 mark. Falling from the unbeaten ranks during °he week were Baldwin Wallace by Toledo 47-33; Cornell by New York Univ 62-46; Georgia by Vanderbilt 44-41; Tulane by Ala bama 39-28; Yale by Harvard 39 37; Northwestern by Illinois 45-38 and Capital by Ashland 47-41.

Director R. Bruce Etheridge of the Department of Conservation and Development will give his semi-annual report to the board, and varfous division heads will re. port on activities within their di visions. The board also will hear dele gates. but the only group that has given advance notice of its inten tions to appear is a delegation from High Point requesting a 15-day extension of the quail shooting sea son after January 31, when the sea. son now is scheduled to end. Commissioner John D. Findlay of the division of game and inland fisheries has announced that he intends to offer several recommend ations to the board and submit a schedule of dates for opening and closing the hunting season on vari ous game next autumn and winter. His proposals also will include a recommendation that no hunting of deer be permitted west of a speci fied line in the state next segson. The board merely will take these matters under advisement, leaving them open for public appraisal un til next July, when final action will be taken. Canadian Footballers Enroll At N. C.

Brookhattan 1 (tie.) £ $100,000 For Quacks By FRANK ECK (AP Newsfeatures Sports Writer) NEW YORK—The first peacetime duck hunting season was quite spotty in general but Ray E. Benson, executive secretary of Ducks Unlimited, Inc., still believes the end of the war was a boon to DU’s work of increasing natural production of waterfowl on their most important breeding grounds in Canada. “Construction materials for dams, as well as labor, have been released from priorities and we plan to double our efforts during 1946,” says Benson who operates DU’s national headquarters here. “The Saskatchewan government, in cooperation with DU. has set aside an area of over 1,000,000 acres on the Saskatchewan River as a permanent wildlife reserve for waterfowl nesting. DU is ear-marking a fund of $100,000 for development work, mostly stabilization of water levels in great marshes bordering the river to protect duck nests from being washed out by periodic floods.” In some drought years millions of young ducklings perish when these great marshes dry up. During the season recently concluded guides were booked solid in most of the popular gunning localities. The Dakotas had particularly good hunting while in Iowa the shooting fell off . . . Arkansas, however, reports its best duck season in many years with a notable increase in mallards. Minnesota, which has more duck hunte„rs than any other state, reports an increase of diving ducks.
