The Dunn girls, however, came to life in the third quarter and when that period ended they were behind 33 to 32. With two minutes left to play Dunn was out in front ! 42 to 38. Then Coats stored two , foul shots and a field goal to pull up to 42. Mott Butler made a foul I shot for Dunn to put them out in i front 43 to 42.

As a result, the Giants were convinced today that the slugging left fielder’s fractured ankle bone was completely healed and that Monte is ready for the “big year” | needed to help them to the Nation al League pennant. Irvin, who hit .312 and led the league In runs batted in two years ago, suffered tb« fmcture -last March in an exhibition played only 46 games during the season. At St. Petersburg. Fla.p the world champion Yankees held their first workout—but they bore little resemblance to world champions. Ten key players Were still unsign ed and even Manager Casey Sten gel passed up the workout to sup ervise the Yankees’ special rookie camp in Lake Wales. k The Washington Senators report ed. however, that third-baseman Eddie Yost, Is about ready to come to terms. Yost, the league’s lead-' ing walk-procurer the last two sea sons, wants $20,000 although he hit only .233 in 1952. Both the St. Louis Browns and Philadelphia Phillies proved even * more successful in their signing efforts. The Browns corralled catcher Clint Courtney, rookie of the year In 1952, and 10-game win ner Duane PUlette while the Phil lies signed catcher Smokey Bur gess and pitcherr Jim Konstanty and Andy Hansen. Willie Miranda is the only unsigned Brownie while Ken Heintsebnan is the only Phil ly batteryman unsigned. At Mesa. iSttz., meanwhile, long ball hitting Preston Ward, back with the Chicago Cuba after two years in the service, appeared to have won a regular berth in right field. Ward, who five y«u-» age was the talk of a Dodger spring camp as a 20-year-old first base man, hammered four “home runs** in batting drill. Solly Hemus was assured of a regular ' job with the Cardinals when Manager Eddie Stanky recon sidered an earlier statement that Schoendienst was the only infielder certain to open the season. At Lakeland. Fla.. Manager Fred Hutchinson indicated the Detroit Tigers will carry only two catchers duriri" the regular season—leaving Joe Ginsberg and Johnny Bucha to battle it out for the vacant spot behind Matt Batts.

Duke Pressure Getting Tough In Cage Gaines By UNITED PRESS High-scoring George Washington University must step past defense— minded Maryland in an all-impor tant game tonight at College Park or the tournament hopes of the Old Colonials will just about fade away. At the same time if Duke's Blue Devils can whip Davidson, all but two of the current teams in the running for a place In' the con ference tournament would have their berths sewed up should George Washington falter. Duke would be In, by the front door. The University of North Car olina would slip in the back way without the necessity for the Tar Heels to hit another basket. North Carolina Coach Frank Mc- Guire doesn’t like the prospect of “backing" into the tournament at Raleigh March 5-6-7 but that might be the most important consequence of the “make or break” games to night. A victory for the tenacious Terps of Coach Bud Millikan at College Park and a Duke win over weak Davidson would leave either George Washington or Richmond outside looking in. t Gapfge Washington’s chances < wouldn’t die. There would still be the barest mathematical possibility of the Colonials getting in. It would depend 6n George Washington beat ing William and Mary Thursday night and William and Mary beat ing Richmond Saturday night. Even then there would have to be a playoff game March 4 between Richmond and George Washington. Maryland has snow-balled its way to a berth in the tournament, with an 11-3 league, record. That includes a 63-62 victory over George Washington at Washington Feb. 3. ' But the Terps have dropped two games to non-conference foes with in a week and will go into the Ral eigh tournament with the poor est overall record, now 13-7, of any of the tourney entries. George Washington meanwhile i has snapped back from a disas -1 trous road trip to North Carolina the second week in February and fra* blasted its last two. foes bv H AND I FISH MARKET PETE BROCK Formerly BUI and Ray’s Seafood Market # FISH # OYSTERS # SHRIMP FREE DELIVERY MSB UlßlflV E.

Os) Michigan State College Insisted to day it was being "unjustly pnn ished” for the activities of an off campus group which gave unearned financial aid to 10 members of the undefeated 1951 Spartan football team. The college, under a year’s pro bation by Big" Ten Commissioner Kenneth L. Tug Wilson, said through its conference representa tive it was “being punished for re fusal of the Spartan Foundat'on to reveal its activities.” 49 and 22 point margins, scoring 108 against Washington and Lee and 98 against Virginia. The Colonials, on the strength of the high-scoring Holup brothers, Joe and John, will match their basket skill against the tantalizing possession ball of the Terps. Mary land’s high-scorer is standout for ward Gene Shue. Duke is neavily favored to swamp Davidson to move a step closer to the tournament. But if George Washington wins tonight at College Park, the pressure will be on the Blue Devils to beat North Carolina in the finale cm Saturday night. ~ ~~~ ' ~~~ . * f-1 • • . . v ~_ > j If You Ganßuy AnuNow Gar * I the light car field!
