The National Invitation, with no commitments, has its eyes on not only the conference powers, but top ranking independents as well. “Holy Cross, the country’s sole un- beaien major team, is the only club definitely in the title playofts. The Crusaders, with a 25-0 record will represent District 1 in the NCAA. Ohio State, which has clinched the Big Ten title with an 18-3 mark, also is headed for the NCAA as a representative of District Four. Kentucky, defending NCAA champion, probably will be back in that competition. Here are the other likely choices for the eight-team NCAA affair, with Eastern playoffs in New York March 23-25 and Western elimina- tions in Kansas City March 24-25. District 2—Duquesne; 5—Brad- ley or Nebraska; 6—Arizona or the Southwest Conference champion (Baylor, Arkansas, SMU); 7—Wyo- ming or Denver; 8—UCLA or Wash- ington State. J Some of these teams are under consideration for bids to the Na- tional Invitation, a 12-team elimi- nation opening at Madison Square Garden March 11.
