TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6: 1960 Cagers Win; Play onight DuMars, Harris Star as Lions Upset Purdue By SANDY PADWE Terry Dischinger says Mark DuMars is too small to make All-American but the 6000 fans who saw the "Magician" perform Saturday night would have a tough time agreeing with the Purdue star. DuMars scored 31 points on a wide assortment of jumpers and drives and . he put on a dazzling one-man freeze as the Lions up set the Boilermakers, 63-59. in Bee Hall, While DuMars was drawing most of the applause, his team mates—especially Gene Hari;is— were-doing an exceptional defen sive job on the whole Purdue team. Using what coach John Egli describes "as a defense similar to the box and one," the Lions and Harris were responsible for one of Dischinger's worst col- lege performances. The Big Ten scoring champ and All-American hit only 3 of 11 shots and converted 8 of 11 free throws for 14 points, 12 below his normal output. "Gene did a great job." Egli said yesterday. "Anytime you stop a player like Dischinger. you know someone has done an out standing job." Harris, a Pittsburgh product, played Dischinger most of the lime as the Lions used a varia tion of their usual 2-3 zone. What the defense actually amounts to is the two front and back men play a zone with the middle man—Harris—playing his opponent man-for-man. "Don't forget those corner men," Egli said referring to Earl Hoffman and Jake Trueblood. "They didn't let their men get the ball to Dischinger that much. That was our strategy because we knew how good he was under the basket." "This was a wonderful win for Ex-Boxing Czar Admits Payments WASHINGTON (W) The for mer president of the International Boxing Clubs yesterday acknowl edged payments totaling more than $lBO,OOO to an influential promoter and the wife of an al leged underworld fight kingpin. The aim, he said, was to insure a "free flow of fighters" for tele vised IBC bouts. Truman Gibson, who nominally headed the now-defunct IBCS in New York and Chicago, told a Senate subcommittee about pay ments of $142,500 which he said went to Jack Kearns, who once piloted heavyweight Jack Demp sey, among others. He refused to accept a subcom mittee lawyer's description of these transactions as payoffs. Gibson confirmed that separate payments totaling between $40,000 and $45,000 went to Viola Masters. A subcommittee aide said records at Palm Beach, Fla., indicate she is married to Frankie Carbo. Now serving time, Carbo was described as a hoodlum with wide spread power in the fight busi ness. Earlier, Gibson—who is in trou ble with the law himself—pictured Carbo as wielding sometimes-con trolling influences over two dozen fight promoters and managers across the country, Among other things, Gibson im plied Carbo dictated terms for a 1952 rematch between Jersey Joe Walcott arid heavyweight cham pion Rocky Marciano. r!3!==:1:1 - . .. • • •s; 4 , Ht. ,, 70t-c . cs •Al A T4.

The evening didn't appear to be promising at the outset for State with Purdue taking a 20-11 lead at 11:50. But the Lions came back to tie the score at 27 just before the end !of the first half. With 40 seconds left, Jake True blood scored on a tap-in and Har ris dunked a rebound at the buz zer to give. State a 31-27 halftime edge. The Lions never lost the lead in the second half although Pur due came back to tie the game at 41 midway in the period. With the score knotted, DuMars and John Mitchell combined for seven straight points and Purdue never recovered. State had a 12-point lead, 60- 118, with 2:30 remaining. A last ditch effort by the Boilermakers fell short and the Lions had their first win of the year after an opening game loss to Maryland. I With Dischinger off, Junior 'Jerry .
