Last Season's
Power Teams
Still Rolling
Bv JOHN’ CHANDLER
NEW YORK. Dec. 10— ^—The
college basketball powers of last
season, with an exception here and
there, are off on the right foot in
the young campaign just under way.
However, several schools face some
tough competition this week that
could mar their perfect records.
Although several clubs, including
Kentucky, have played only one
game, nine of the first 10 teams in
the Associated Press poll at the
end of the 1950-52 season are roll
ing again. Only Bradley, which
finished as the. No. 6 team last
spring, is finding things difficult.
Duke, apparently a coming power
to challenge North Carolina State’s
reign in the Southern Conference,
slugged Bradley Saturday, 87-69.
It was the second loss in three
weeks for the Braves. Duke now
has won four in a row.
Kentucky, the No. 1 team last
year and victor over Kansas State
in the NCAA tournament., looked
impressive in dusting off Washing
ton and Lee, 96-46. It was the
opener for Kentucky, and all thi;
was accomplished without the pre
sence of the Wildcats’ All-America
center, lanky Bill Spivey, out with
a knee injury until about mid
January.
Oklahoma A. and M., the Mis
souri Valley champion and No. 2
team last season, had the toughest
time in its opener, rallying for a
45-43 double overtime victory over
New Mexico A. and M.
The Columbia University Lions,
eastern intercollegiate champs and
No. 3 last year, took Amherst, 61-41,
for their second straight. Powerful
Kansas State, No. 4 last year and
defending Big Seven champion,
made it three straight by thumping
Arizona, 76-57. The loss was the
first in 81 games at home for Ari
zona.
Illinois, winner of the Big Ten
title and the No. 5 team, opened
with a 68-57 triumph over Butler.
The Illini are rated the team to
beat for the crown again this sea
son.
Huskies to Meet
. . Bears at Weekend
By the Associated Press
Northern Division basketball
teams take to the road this week

Bears on the Bear's’ home ground in
one of the top games of the week.

in the northern division race, and
Washington State visit the Mon
tana Grizzlies, and Oregon State
is billed for a game with Portland
University at Portland.
The Oregon Webfoots, defeated

AMERICA HAS
MADE THIS TEST
It was In 1935 that we began inviting people
everywhere to make the Budweiser 5-day test.
What happened? Millions of persons discovered
that Budweiser has a distinctive taste found in
no other beer ... that it has the quality that
only true lagering with extra long ageing can
produce.
Sales of Budweiser increased in leaps and
bounds. The world’s largest brewery in St. Louis
was greatly expanded. Then, when there still
was not enough Budweiser to go ’round, it was
expanded ... again and again.
Today production and sales of Budweiser have
been more than quadrupled ... and we are
building another brewery in Newark, N. J. From
it will come Budweiser brewed by the traditional
St. Louis formula that produces the world’s
most famous beer.
haven’t made the test,
So, if you
