Praises Defense Coach Phil Woolpert of the new champions had high praise for all his men. particularly Husseu ana Jones, and he gave special credit to the Dons' defense the best in the nation, according to official statistics. "Defense won it for us." said Woolpert. "That was the difference in th game. We were up against a great shooting team, but our de fense and hustle beat them." Russell had a simple explanation for the triumph, the Dons' first in a national tournament since thev won the 1949 National Invi tation Tournament. Russell said, "I am playing on the best team in the world and we just beat the best team we ever played. Coach Ken Loeffler of La Salle, disappointed at his team's inability to retain the crown, called San Francisco "a great team" and Rus sell "a great player." lie frankly admitted Ihe Dons were "Ihe bel ter team," but alo said he thought La Salle did not play its best game. Colorado Mins Consolation The title victory was San Fran cisco's 26lh in a row and 2XUi in 29 games this season. The Dons' only defeat of the season came in their third game when they bowed to UCLA. 47 40.

Gola, voted college basketball's "Player of the year during the recular season, scored only nine points during the first hall white Russell's 18 were sending San Francisco out in front. And then Gola tallied only seven in the sec ond half while Jones was canning 18 to clinch the Dons' victory.

The rule was adopted last year, in preference to the socalled 1-and-l free throw policy. The national committee is a 20- member group with collegiate, high school, YMCA, AAU and Ca nadian representation. ' II. V. Porter, the committee's executive secretary, said his group starting Sunday night weighed results of a questionnaire sent to 25,000 coaches and officials to guide decisions for next year s code. Although considerable criticism has been directed against the bo nus rule for "running up scores and giving victories to teams out scored from the field," Porter said that for the third straight year it was noted fouling has de creased. The college coaches last week end made three recommendations to the national committee: 1. To put two defensive ulavers in the near alleys on free throws if the present bonus rule is re tained. 2. Permit only single shots for the first eight personals per team each half, and two per common foul thereafter. 3. Penalize all offensive fouls with loss of the ball instead of a free throw L,fspr.
