Play Of Spivey In Second Half Turns The Tide By HAROLD CLAASSEN MINNEAPOLIS, March 28 JJV-Ever jttart your car up a long hill only to have it stop half way to the top because it ran out of gas? That's also a description of Lew Hitch, Kansas State center, last night in the NCAA title-deciding game which Kentucky won, 68 to 66, with a rousing last half rally. For the first half Hitch, a mere six foot seven inch center, made 6even foot Bill Spivey, his Kentucky rival, look almost inexperienced. Then came the second half. Spivey kept on going. Hitch all but stopped.
And when Spivey took command of the rebounding. Kentucky wiped out a two-point half-time deficit to saunter to its third NCAA title in four years. The big fellow's efforts brought a successful close to the second year of Coach Adolph Rupp's current three-year plan. He started almost from scratch some 17 months ago with a band of sopho- mores and Incidental upper class- men His aim was to win the 195- NCAA crown and a possible trip to the 1962 Olympics. But he has the big title a year early.
Nine of the ten men on the equad return next season. Only exception is Roger, Layne. third string center. After the title conquest. Rupp gave most of the praise to Spivey amazing second half effort but he also singled out Cliff Hagan for wumuri.
nagan, wno missea tne final practices because of flu, en- tered the game when it was almost 15 minutes old and with Kaisas State ahead. Within minutes the RCflTa u-afi Hivl nnlv Vtnira Vnnnm oi-aie eoge aneaa again and re- main two points ahead at the re cess. After the Intermission, Shelby Linville potted a free throw and then Spivey tipped in a two pointer to put Kentucky ahead. The Blue Grass Wildcat never aain trailed. Kentucky, replacing.
City College of New York in the NCAA top spot, was rated the No. 1 team in the Associated Press basketball poll. In a foul-marked consolation-game, Illinois defeated Oklahoma 61 to 46. Fifty personals were called, 31 on the Agsies. FIGHTS By The Associated Press WHITE PLAINS.

Exactly one year ago City College was acclaimed as the first "grand slam" champion in history. But today all its first string players have been engulfed by the series of betting scandals. Irwin Dambrot, Norm Mager, and Herb Cohen were the latest arrested by District Attorney Frank Ho-gan. After more than eight hours of questioning. Mr.
Hogan announced last night that the trio had admitted shaving the point spread or trying to shave the point spread in three games in Madison Square Garden last season. Mr. Hogan said the games were against Southern Methodist on Dec. 8, 1949; UCLA on Dec. 1949.
and Niagara on Feb. 16. 1950. Last month Ed Roman. Ed Warner, Al Roth, and Floyd Layne, all OCNY regulars this season, adm.t-ted they had helped fix other games.
Dambrot. last year's CCNY captain, and Mager were particularly outstanding in last season's NCAA title game against Bradley. It was Dambrot's pass to Mager, who scored in the lart 30 seconds, that gave CCWif a 71-68 victory. Dambrot was picked as the most valuable player of the game and later, in a pre-season forecast for 1951 by CCNY Coach Nat Holman, received further praise. Said Holman: "We lost a great player and we can't replace him.
I mean Irwin Dambrot who is tops in my book." Both Dambrot and Mager were graduated last June, but Cohen, regarded as a substitute, played on this year's team along with Roman, Warner. Roth and Layne. The arrest of Dambrot, Mager, and Cohen, each released in $1,000 ball, brought to 17 the number of players from CCNY, Long Island, Manhattan, and NYU involved in the spreading scandal. A total of 20 Garden games now are listed as having been fixed either by "dumping" or shaving the point spread for the benefit of gamblers in the know. Mr.
Hogan said the three" worked with Roman and Roth in the SMU, UCLA, and Niagara games and said an unidentified fixer agreed to pay Roth, Roman, Mager, and Dambrot each $1,000 per game and $500 to Cohen. Mr. Hogan said the fixer, whose name is knov to the authorities, but who has not previously been implicated, tried to have the players fix some of the games in the NIT tourney last year, but all refused.
