IN WINNING the race in the blazing time of 18:38.1, Taylor broke every existing American record for that event; including the NCAA, Big Ten, intercollegiate, pool and varsity record. Earlier this month Taylor es- tablished a new Big Ten record for the same event in the time of 18:58.1 and last night bettered his own mark by almost twenty seconds. His victory placed the Buckeyes at the head of the pack competing for the NCAA crown. Right up with Ohio State is Stanford who placed men in the Locke Reinstated CHICAGO-(A')-The Profes- sional Golfers Association of America yesterday re-instated British Open Champion Bobby )ocke, banned'by the PGA since dodging several American tour- neys last July. second and third slots. Ralph Sala came in second to Taylor in 19:11 and Peter Cole notched the show spot for the Indians. OTHER POINT winners were Brian Canning of Washington State who came in fourth and Donald Watson of Iowa, fifth. Matt Mann did not enter any of his Wolverine swimmers in last night's event. Competition swjngs into high gear today and continues through tomorrow night. To- day's events include the 50-yard free style, 220-yard freestyle, 150-yard backstroke, 200-yard breast stroke, 400-yard relay and the low board diving. The events are expected to be dominated by Ohio State, Michi- gan and Yale, although other schools generally lacking depth are expected to shine in certain races. Wins AA 1500 Race Top Conference Gymnasts Seek Repeat Performances HighFlying CCNY Halts Ohio, 56-55 By MARV EPSTEIN Seven of the eleven place win-, ners in last year's championships will be back tomorrow as the twentieth Western Conference gymnastics meet gets under way at Iowa City. They include two each from Michigan, Minnesota and Illinois and one from Iowa. The first three mentioned teams are the only ones rated a chance to cop the 1950 title. MICHIGAN will have Ed Bu- chanan and Pete Barthell return- ing to defend their crowns. Bu- chanan is reigning trampoline champ, while Barthell holds both the tumbling and parallel bars laurels." Minnesota, last year's team champion, will return Herb Lo- ken and Howie Swanson. Loken won the side horse and placed second to Barthell in tumbling. Swanson was number two man in the high bar and took third in the all-around event. Illinois' two-man delegation is composed of Frank Dolan and Joe Fina. Dolan figured in four of the seven events at the Big Ten tour- ney held in Ann Arbor, taking third in the side horse, and flying rings, tying teammate Fina for third in the parallel b'rs and racking up 1045 points in the all- around.for second place. * * * FINA, besides tying Dolan, also tied Jim Peterson of Minnesota for second in tumbling. Peterson, who will not be in tomorrow's competi- tion, was all-around winner and high scorer in the 1949 contest. Representing Iowa will be Bruce Sidlinger, third - place trampoliner in the 1949 Confer- ence trials. Sidlinger, a sopho- more last year, went into his specialty as a favorite only to be upset by Buchanan and Gay Hughes of Illinois. Hughes will be- out of tomor- row's meet because of a lame back which refused to respond to treat- ment. Sidlinger, however, will be right in the thick of things to- morrow and will be aided by a year's valuable experience. * * * BARTHELL will be out to dupli- cate two sensational feats which marked him as the standout per- former last year. The Michigan captain was the only double win- ner in the nineteenth champion- ships and set the high perform- ance point mark with 283 out of a possible 300 in tumbling. He will be hard-pressed, how- ever, by the Illini's Irv Bedard. Bedard is considered one of the finest tumblers in American gym- nastics history and has held the national title for two years. He was part of a two-man team that won the National AAU championships for Navy Pier last year. DICK SCHNITTKER ... all in vain CITRUS CIRCUIT: Blackwell Beats Tigers* Red Sox, Yankees Wini Holy Cross Upset. ! NEW YORK - (A') - North Carolina State's speedy, hard- driving Wolf Pack upset favor- ed Holy Cross, 87-74, last night to join City College of New York in the finals of the East- ern NCAA basketball playoffs. By The Associated Press NEW YORK - City College of New York, with a dazzling exhibi- tion of long-range shooting, edged Ohio State, 56-55, last night to gain the final round of the eastern NCAA basketball playoffs at Mad- ison Square Garden. THE TORRID Beavers, return- ing to the scene of their National Invitational Tourney champion- ship which they won last week, now advance to the eastern finals, scheduled for tomorrow night. All-American forward Dick Schnittker of the Buckeyes was the game's high scorer. He con- tributed 26 points in his team's losing cause. City College was paced by guards Floyd Layne and Norm Mager who meshed 17 and 15 points, respectively. Personal fouls proved costly to Ohio State as Schnittker fouled out with a minute and five seconds left to play. Three and a half minutes earlier, his teammate, high-scoring Bob Donham, had met the same fate. Thescore was 40-40 at the end of a sizzling first half. By The Associated Press TAMPA, Fla.-Ewell Blackwell, who the Cincinnati Reds hope will be their "Comeback Kid" of 1950, pitched five scoreless innings yes- terday as the Rhinelanders licked the Detroit Tigers, 4 to 1. Blackwell looked like money in the bank today. He had the Tigers hitting into the dirt and allowed only three balls to be hit out of the' infield. The Bengals got only, four hits off Blackwell and all of them were singles. KENT PETERSON, who hurled the last four innings, was equally effective, allowing only three more one-base blows. Art Houtteman and rookie Ray Herbert did the Detroit pitch- ing and allowed 11 hits, one of them a wind-blown homer by Jimmy Bloodworth. The two runs the Reds scored in the first inning were the first given up by Houtteman this spring. Houtteman was nicked for the two runs almost before the sparse crowd of 1,033 were seated. After that, Art held the Redlegs score- less until the fourth. ** * * THE TIGERS' fielding was the worst seen so far this spring. They committed four errors and were' shaky on a half dozen other plays. George Kell was the top Tiger batsman with four safeties in five trips to the plate. Hoot Evers, Aaron Robinson and Joe Ginsberg got the other Detroit hits. The Cincinnati win was the third over the Tigers this spring. Detroit holds one decision over the Reds and has just one chance left, at Lakeland next Tuesday. * *,* BROOKLYN followed Tuesday's whitewashing of the Philadelphia Athletics at Miami by beating Con- nie Mack's men again, 8-4, at Vero Beach. Pee Wee Reese played shortstop for the Brooks for the first time and had no fielding chances. How- ever, he hit a triple, batted in one run and scored two. AT CLEARWATER Al (Zeke) Zarilla clouted two ninth inning home runs, one with the bases loaded, to engineer Boston's Red Sox to a 12-7 verdict over the Philadelphia Phillies. The Sox trailed 7-4 entering the ninth when Zarilla as lead off batter slammed a Jocko Thompson pitch over the short right field wall. His second, withthree mates aboard, was off Curt Simmons. Dom DiMaggio had homered with two on in the second to give the Sox a shortlived 4-3 edge. * * * A THREE-RUN homer by Pitch- er Allie Reynolds and triples by Billy Johnson and Joe Collins en- abled the New York Yankees to defeat the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-3, at St. Petersburg for the Bombers' third straight triumph over the Redbirds this Spring. George Munger was the victim of the Reynolds' clout after two had walked in the second. It was the only hit off the St. Louis righthander in his four innings on the mound. , Ii 1 DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN i ' '' I THE 200-YARD breaststroke is such a race, featuring Princeton's Bob Brawner, Olympic star Joe Verdeur of LaSalle, Charlie Moss of Michigan, Bob Dunlop of Pur- due and Ohio State's Jose Bal- mores. l Last week Brawner swam the event in 2:14.2, establishing a new Eastern Intercollegiate record and unofficially smashing the world record now held by Verdeur. The 220-yard free style will find Michigan's distance duo Captain Matt Mann III and Gus Stager pitted against an impressive field.
