St. Johns, a skillful, deliberate team built around six-foot, slx-incn center Bob “Zeke” Zawoluk, hardly ranks as a favorite over LaSalle and its six-six Tom Gola. The Ex plorers from Philadelphia, a smart aggressive club using Gola's un canny shotmaking as its chief tool, btamped itself as a real title threat by its 80-76 first-round win over Seton Hall on Saturday. St. Bonaventure posted a regu lar season 73-60 win over Western Kentucky. But folks will be very surprised if they can win by that much again. The Bonnies have been slumping lately, with a loi« to Vil anova Sat urday in Its last regular-season game. But Western’s Hilltoppers never looked better than in their 99-62 first-round win over sharpshooting Louisville.
