Belko praised. "Utah is a very fine basketball team, too” Gaskins is characterized as a hard man to defend due to his great and quick jumping ability under the basket.

The Greatest PSC's Rick Sanders Named Finest Athlete By PAUL POLSKY Of the Kmerald Portland Stale's Kick Sanders, who won 88 of 89 wrestling matches during his college c« recr and captured numerous na tional titles, was named Ore fjon's outstanding athlete of 1067 at the 20th annual Mill Hayward Banquet of C hampions Monday night at the Statler Hilton Hotel in Portland. Sanders, a five-foot four inch 115-poutuler, won the award over nine other nominees, including the University of Oregon’s Wade Bell, Jim Smith and Neil Stein hatter. Bell, who won both the NC AA and the AAU 880 champion ships last year, attained nation at track prominence when he clocked 1:15 in the 8(H) meter, the fourth fastest time in history for the event. Steinhauer, who has an all time best shotput of 68-11 1 4, holds the world indoor shotput record with a heave of 67 10.

Coach Dick Smith had pre dicted before the meet that it would be close, perhaps with only two points separating the winner and the loser, and his speculations proved to be fairly accurate. After five events, the Gators were ahead 112.0-109.20, but the Ducks outpointed the bay area team 46.95 39.45 in the last two events, the parallel bars and the high bar, to win. Oregon’s VV a y n e Noecker barely edged Gator Pete Gruber 42.75-42 30 to win the all-around competition. Gruber's fall in the high bar probably cost him that title.
