If the play follows the pattern generally set during the 18 games of the first two days, early favorites will continue victorious.

Little Nicky Watts, playing in his first national tournament, staged a scoring exhibition that spur-er- d the Salt Lake City Eckers to a 7 victory over the favored Oklahoma City 89ers. Watts joined Eckers a few weeks ago after completing a University of Utah cage career which had brought him a place in the 1940 allbig seven conference team.

Unanimous Floyd Morris was a unanimous :hoice. Not one dissented on his icing the top forward. His high icoring, smooth but determined day stamped him as a favorite. Nick Watts had more than any A ither forward except Floyd. couple opposed Watts, and named lendricks of Colorado and Bob Doll of Colorado instead. As a natter of fact, after what Doll did at Madison Square Garden, he gained a lot of supporters. But vlorris and Watts led the forwards. Jack Harvey at center was a big ,'avorite. He got it hands down. Two wanted to move Doll to center and out Jack Harvey at guard. Guards caused more difference of opinion than any other position, but Agricola and Thurman had the edge over all others. Roland Reading, versatile center at Utah State, was next as a favorite, while Ray Lindquist, Overly from BYU and even Bob Doll polled votes.

Ho has won first place at the two mile event in both inter-clas- s tarck and field meets that have been staged in the new Aggie field house during the past three weeks. A fourth will be Albert Burton who finished third in last spring's ev.ent. Several others will enter from the freshman and sophomore ranks. A fifth contestant was expected to be Nelson Price, a talented transfer from Ohio State university, but Monday's registration schedules at Utah State found that he has gone back to the Buckeye state for the spring quarter.
