The 19 points were only two short of the single-quarter play- off record of 21 by Joe Fulks of the old Philadelphia WarriorsTI against Chicago on April 16, 1947. In the first period, Barry had a sensational stretch, scoring 11 straight Golden State points, as the Warriors raced to a 24-16 lead. By halftime, when the War- riors led 50-48, Barry had 25 points, and collected 13 in the second half, despite sitting out a good portion of the fourth quarter after Golden State was far ahead.

Chenier had been the Bullets leading scorer through the first two games with 50 points, but he didn't get a field goal until the opening min- ute of the third quarter. Derrek Dickey hit his first six field goal attempts for the Warriors and finished with 14 points while George Johnson contributed 10, including eight in the second quarter. Johnson also grabbed seven rebounds in the second period, six off the offensive boards. The Warriors took the lead for good in the third quarter 63-56, with nine straight points, five by Barry. By late in the fourth quarter they had bolted to 14. Barry's 11 consecutive point splurge in the first period came in a 3:24 span. When the6Warriors had their lead to 22-16, Porter flipped in seven consecutive points, slic- ing Golden State's edge to 26-21 after the first period. The Bullets never led until Porter tossed in a jump shot at 1:55 of the second period for a 29-28 margin. There were five ties and seven lead changes be- fore the Warriors forged ahead to stay in the first half 44-43 on a jumper by Barry. Again the lead fluctuated early in the third period before the Warriors took command for good. Psu leads in CCC track After the first day of compe- tition at the Central Collegiate Conference track meet yester- day, being held at both Eastern Michigan and Ferry Field, the Nittany Lions of Penn State hold a commanding lead with 67 points.

PENN STATE grabbed first places in the six mile run, the shot put, and the 3000-meter steeplechase. The meet resumes today with the decathlon slated to begin at 8:30 a.m. at EMU, followed by the 110 meter high hurdles, the discus throw, pole vault, javelin throw, and 1500 meter dash.
