Cincinn ati* Wins$A Cage Ti'tle By The Associated Press Cincinnati's slick Bearcats Were the nation's No. 1 college basket- ball team for 1959-60. The Associated Press' final poll of the season yesterday had the Oscar Robertson-led B e a r c a t s perched in the top seat - just where they've been since the first poll was taken in December. Now it's to the !Ohio five to prove its merit in the NCAA Championshipsnagainst a talented field that includes California's defending champs, the No. 2 team in the poll. Since the AP basketball poll began in 1949, six of the 11 quin- tets chosen for the No. 1 rating crowned their campaigns with NCAA titles. A year ago, however, Kansas State was named the top team and then was upset in the early NCAA eliminations. California, ranked 11th, beat Cincinnati in the semifinals and then edged West Virginia for the title. Another meeting between Cincy and Cal would set up the game of the year for the hardwood sport. This is the first time Cincin- nati ever has been chosen to lead them all and it's only the third time the Bearcats have made the elite top ten. It all started with the incomparable Robertson, of course.

Denver meets Colorado College and North Dakota plays Michigan Tech in two-game playoffs Friday and Saturday at Denver and Mich- igan Tech. With a 4-0 regular season record against CC and playing on its home ice, Denver is expected to move through the playoff without difficulty. The other series, however, is un- predictable. Michigan Tech, which finished second in the Western Collegiate Hockey Assn., has split four games with third place North Dakota. The teams broke even in their series at Tech. In the event of a split in either of the playoffs, total goals will be used to determine the winner. Denver won not only the sea- sonal WCHA championship with a 17-4-1 record but the individual scoring and goal tending titles as well. Bill Masterton, a six-foot junior from Winnipeg, was the top scor- er with 44 points on 17 goals and 27 assists. He was followed by the Michigan Tech trio of Paul Coppo and John Kosiancic, 41 each, and Gerald Fabbro, 38. The league's best goalie was Denver's George Kirkwood, a 22- Year-old sophomore from Edmon- ton, Alta., who allowed 2.3 goals a game. George Kukulick of Tech was second with 3.3. Michigan State's Mel Christof- ferson was the tough citizen of the league, Christofferson logging 20 penalties and the most penalty time, 48 minutes. G A Pt&.

Unsung Len Lunde delighted the home crowd of 13,345 by scoring once and assisting on another goal as the Wings strengthened their position for a berth in the Stanley. Cup Playoffs.

In the future, under the direction of the National Aeronautics and Space Admin- istration, pioneering on the space fron tier will advance at an accelerated rate. The preliminary instrument explora- tions that have already been made only seem to define how much there is yet to be learned. During the next few years, payloads will become larger, trajectories will become more precise, and distances covered will become greater. Inspections will be made of the moon and the plan- ets and of the vast distances of inter7 planetary space; hard and soft landings will be made in preparation for the time when man at last sets foot on new worlds.
