'HUSKIES LUSE OUT T0 BEAVERS 54-44; (By The Associated Press) The Oregon State College Beav- ers pulled a half a game behind pace-setting Washington State last ,hight by defeating the University jof Washington Huskies, 54-44, in a (Northern Division Pacific Coast |Conterence basketball game on the Beaver floor. Meanwhile Oregon's fourth place Webfoots bowed in the last five (seconds to the traveling Long Is- {land University Blackbirds, 68-66, at 'Eugene in a non-conference tussle. ! Fifty-two fouls were committed +in the Oregon State-Washington |fray. Three Beavers and one Wash- ingtonian were thumbed out. Wash- !ington missed 15 charity tosses and |the Beavers 16 Missed opportunities at the fr {throw line and the inspired shoot- ling of five-foot-nine inch Nat Mill- .er, a Long Island substitute guard, ‘spelled ultimate victory for the | Easterners at Eugene. i Leading 66-64 with a minute left, | Oregon missed three free throws. {Then with 15 seconds left Miller |one-handed the tying counter. The :Black-blrds broke up Oregon’s at- ;tcmpt to put the ball in play and {Miller took a pass and hooked in ione from the side to clinch it with five seconds remaining. Tonight the Long Islanders play Oregon again while the Division leading Washington Staters enter- {tain Idaho and the Huskies and Beavers resume at Corvallis. | | ] /ARRIVE AND DEPART iVIA PAN AMERICAN Pan American Airways' north- bound and southbound flights flew yesterday with six passengers on the 'northbound and nine passengers on {the southbound. f* From Seattle: Jean Korby, Pros iGamy, Russell Morgan, Kay Wells, C.

Marlowe agrees to take the " ase, only to find out the coin is 3 a medium of exchange for black- mail information. Almost before he can get his bearings, several mur- {ders are committed and he finds himself under suspicion by tHe po- lice. Meanwhile, he has fallen in love with the widow's pretty secretary jNancy Guild—although every indi- cation points to her beinz a homi- cidal maniac. With the pressure of the police on Marlowe becoming more intense as violent murder punctuates every step of the way, and with the ne- jcessity of resolving his own ro- mantic interest in the psychopathic Miss Guild, the story is brought to a blazing climax of action and thrills.
