The final score wasn't indicative of how UCLA dominated the Wolverines throughout the game.

The Basketball Is olig h At 'Portland Special To The Daily f PORTLA ,Ore. --Basketball begins wth B, and that rhymes with P, and that stands for Port- land. Hundreds of coaches and thou- sands of fans have crammed into this pleasant town on the Willa- mette River to watch the college game at its zenith. And as you can imagine, when so many bas- ketball-nutty people come to- gether in one spot, every conver- sation centers on the roundball game. And when people talk basketball out here, two names pop up con- stantly: Bill Bradley and Lew Al- cindor. The adjectives used to describe Bradley have ranged from the trite but true, "fantastic, mar- velous, as good as they say he is plus, and truly great," to the more novel ones, like "sweet, phantas- magoric." No Weightlifter At first glance, Bradley is far slimmer than would be expected. He's no weightlifter. He's 6'5" and is listed at 205 pounds, but doesn't look that hefty.' His heft may be exaggerated, but his press clippings are far from bloated. He shoots from any- where on the court and can hit with uncanny accuracy regardless of the coverage on him. Princeton Coach Butch Van Breda Kolff who was voted coach of the year Friday by his fellow coaches, said after the game that Bradley could have scored at will on Pomey if it weren't for the foul trouble in which the All- American found himself and the Wolverines' ability to cover up for Pomey. 'Beaten Him Anytime' "Bill could have beaten him anytime he wanted," his coach said, referring to Pomey.

Washington, who looks young enough to get into the movies for half price, played with a canniness of an NBA veteran after replacing injured Keith Erickson. Erickson Out Erickson, termed "a 6'5" Bill Russell for his shot blocking prowess, pulled a muscle Thurs- day in practice and his mobility was limited. , When Washington came in, UCLA was down by five points. In five minutes they were up by five, and at the half it was 13, at 47-34. Washington, at 6'3", 175 pounds, outrebounded Bill Buntin and outshot Cazzie Rus- sell in the span before the half ended. This is the same Washing- ton who scored 26 points against Duke in the finals last year at Kansas City. As one observer said after the game, "He seems to just love NCAA champion- ships." But, Washington needed plenty of help to support his Cinderella effort. All-American guard Gail Goodrich showed moves that stun- ned even the seasoned UCLA ob- seryers. Twisting and wiggling his 6'1" frame in midair, the sen- ior from Hollywood sank shots from all over the floor. Goodrich threw in 42 points. hitting 12 of 22 from the field. He compounded Michigan's misery in ' the second half with 27 big points to go with his 15 in the first half. The little left-hander was par- ticularly deadly with a driving left hook shot. Never Closer Than 11 Michigan never got closer than within 11 points in the second half. UCLA proved that the championship could be won, even without last year's All-American Walt Hazzard. The game, billed as a battle of brute strength and finess, never materialized. UCLA had too much of everything, evensrebounding. The Uclans out-positioned and out-jumped Michigan and out shot them. The Bruins hit 33 of 58 from the field while Michigan, was 33 for 64. PCLA's percentage was .569 to Michigan's .516.

The year 1964 was a good one for economic performance and policy, but there were some disquieting elements, Prof. Paul W. McCracken pointed out at a conference on Presi- dent Lyndon B. Johnson's economic report that prices of certain raw M ore R ights materials, which historically often have led to a general rise in prices, were rising in the latter part of 1964.

The march, beginning at 7 p.m. in front of the Student Activities Building, will be led by a recently- formed organization consisting of the majority of Negro students at the University. This organization, as yet unoffi- cial and unnamed, was formed March 13. According to co-chair- man James Locke, '67L, its pur- pose is to organize the Negro stu- dents at the University, "to show that we are really here, and that we are concerned about all of the injustice and discrimination, in the North as well as in the South. Locke said that the group will eventually be a cultural organiza- tion, and that fighting discrimin- ation will be one of its goals. Because the new organization is not yet official, Panhellenic Association will formally sponsor the march through the Negro sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha, which is an associate member of Panhellenic. All members of the University community are strongly urged to participate. Marchers are asked to meet in Room 528D of the Stu- dent Activities Building and to bring flashlights. year," McCracken said, "the ca- pacity of the economy to produce also rose iiq almost the same amount. "The moves toward a moderate- ly less easy credit and monetary policy late in 1964 and thus far in 1965, can still be helpful in dealing with the international payments deficit and in reducing the probability of a lurch in the domestic economy which would end in a sharp reversals," he said. Deficit The international deficit is the difference between United States payments to the rest of the world and receipts from abroad. A "less easy monetary and credit policy" would improve the balance of payments by reducing the tendency for surplus funds here to flow abroad. It would also slightly restrain domestic economic expansion by making borrowing money more costly and less easily arranged. Restraint This resulting restraint would not be grave, however, in that too much expansion yields disorderly growth. According to McCracken, vigorous growth is healthy but explosive growth is dangerous. In testimony before the Senate Banking and Currency Committee last, week McCracken pointed out that the president's program to deal with the balance of payment problem will also be more effec- tive with a slightly less easy monetary and ciredit policy. - By CLARENCE FANaTO A national civil rights leader says demonstrations are necessary to exert continued pressure on Congress for passage of the ad- ministration's voting-rights bill. James Farmer, national director of the Congress on Racial Equal- ity, told an audience of 500 last night at Ann Arbor High School that the President's speech last week advocating equality of op- portunity was "the strongest, most unequivocal civil rights statement to come from any Pres-! ident." Farmer asserted that de facto segregation, now being practiced increasingly in the South as well as the North, presents an even more complex problem than the more traditional forms of dis- crimination. "No single law, act or issue can eliminate racial dis- crimination," he said. He warned that accelerating.f violence can be expected in many areas of the deep South after this week's 50-mile civil rights march from Selma to Montgomery, Ala. Farmer explained that a new phase of the civil rights movement is about to begin, although the basic struggle for equal rights under law is not yet over. The1 new phase involves freedom of choice in the areas of housing, employment and education. He urged a three-pronged at- tack on de facto segregation, with increased eforts in the form of political and economic action as well as higher educational stand- ards.

'The Week in Review: 'U'Activism Growvs By LAUREN BAHR Acting Associate Managing Editor The forces of activism were at work on the campus this week. One group of approximately 70 University students, in a coopera tive effort by VOICE, the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Com mittee and GROUP political party, were in Alabama participating i 'civil rights demonstrations and marches. Locally, a number of faculty members proposed a work morator ium to protest United States foreign policy in Viet Nam.

Johnson told the news confer- ence that 1,863 national guards- men had been called into active duty to assure safety of the marchers. He said that there were 100 Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion agents, 75 U.S. marshals and 509 regular army soldiers in the Selma area. March Representative A representative of the march committee told newsmen that be- tween 4,000 and 5,000 persons are expected to be in the group which starts out from Selma.
