TEW MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
OSC Coach Says Qualities Needed
On Hoop Court Can Teach Players
To Meet Problems Out of School
Qualities acquired and re-
" quired for successful play on the
basketball court can teach young
men how to meet problems out
of school. That was the thought
left by Amory T. (Slats) Gill last
night at a dinner honoring the
Medford high school hoop squad.
SLATS GILL
Addresses Dinner Here
Gill, head basketball coach at
Oregon State college, was main
speaker at the Medford Lions
club banquet at Jackson hotel.
He stressed the need for abil
ity of a player to submerge him
self into others, to lose thought
of himself, to play for the team
and to realize that "it is people
who make things go."' Those
same characteristics, Gill de
clared, make a man successful in
later life and enable him to get
the fuller values of life.
Hardest role on a -basketball
team, Gill said, is the role of a
substitute. He brought out that
it is hard for a boy , who was a
star player in high school to
come to college and meet com
petition, forget himself, be sub
merged and still aspire to play.
But, Gill asserted, "No team is
better than its substitutes. They
build morale." And he added the
only way to get a better job is
to handle one's own better than
any other person.
Industries Proselyte
Gill also told how industry and
business are proselyting athletes
as employees even in the man
ner that colleges seek athletic
talent.
The coach also emphasized
that it takes complete concen
tration to play the game well.
While Gill did not minimize
the role of the coach, he stated
that there are no "Houdini's" in
the coaching business and assert
ed that "the thing that goes"
comes from the work of the peo
ple in the organization, in bas
ketball as in anything. That he
said is what has "made basket
ball at Oregon State.
That "little something" which
makes a champion is very dif
ficult to determine, according
to Gill. But he said that his OSC
. boys this year had it. He spoke
of the good balance of the club.
The coach reported that he al
ways felt Bill Toole of the Bea
vers should be a good player
and in the last five games of the
season he lived up to expecta
tions. He also said that in the
last games of the season nobody
had a better player than Tex
Whiteman of OSC.
Played Good Game
Gill said he felt that the Bea
vers played a good game against
University of San Francisco in
the western regional NCAA play
offs. - He classified the Dons as
better than the great Washing
ton crew with Bob Houbregs. He
termed Bill Russell "the best de
fensive man we've seen on the
coast." ,
The OSC mentor spoke of the
USF clash as a game the Beavers
might have won. If the Beavers
had won, it would have had to
have been played "down to the
wire," he said. At this point he
mentioned a satisfaction that
comes in athletes to know all on
a team did the best they could.
Gill also discussed basketball
. rules aimed at big men, including
the 12-foot free throw lane.
"Coaches are inclined to legis
late against things they can't han
dle," he remarked. "I don't know
what it will do to the game."
However, he stated that he didn't
think the premium will ever be
taken off big men. The 12-foot
rule will make timing more dif
ficult but "it will be worked
out,the mentor predicted.
Place for Small Man
Despite the premium on big
men, there is also a place for
the small fast man, Gill reported.
The coaching problem is to get
the right balance.
The speaker asserted the opin
ion that the game of basketball
affords more passive recreation
than any other sport. He told
how spectators can "lose them
selves thoroughly" for two hours.
He described how tension from
competition moves from the
court back into the crowd. Thei
only problem now in basketball,
according to Gill, is to get enough
room to seat people.

Fred Bujack
Has Lead in
All-Events
Fort Wayne, Ind. U.R)
Fred Bujack looked up today,
and suddenly there was no one
ahead of him. He sat alone atop
the all-events divisions of the
American Bowling Congress
tournament after the kind of
night bowlers dream about.
Bujack, of the Pfeiffer's Beer
team of Detroit, powered his
way into the all-events lead, took
second in the singles division,
and guided his squad into the
open division lead with a master
ful exhibition of bowling.
The excitement over his bowl
ing rivaled the interest building
up for today's meeting by tour
ney officials to hear final appeals
for the site of the 1957 cham
pionships. Delegations from Fort
Worth, Tex., and Miami, Fla.,
will put in bids. Rochester N.
Y., has already been awarded the
1956 tourney.
Bujack's all-events total was
1,993, displacing Ed Markulis,
Cuyahoga Falls, O., who had
1,960. His team event aggregate
was 627 and sparked Pfeiffer's
into the open division lead with
3,136.
Missed Perfect Game
In the singles, Bujack missed
a perfect game when he hit the
pocket solid while aiming for
his eighth straight strike. But he
still rolled games of 279, 212,
and 244 to fashion a 735 total,
second only to Eddie Gerzine of
Milwaukee with 738. Bujack
also rolled a 631 in doubles.
Hall of Fame members Herb
Lange of Watertown, Wis., and
Mort Lindsey of Stamford,
Conn., had the best of yester
day's double scores, a 1213 total.
But they failed to total 1260,
which was needed to break the
top ten.
In other action, Bill Urquhart,
Seattle, Wash., moved into sev
enth place in the single with a
693 on games of 221, 247 and
225. Finley Realty Co., Houston,
Tex., posted a 2,891 open division
total to lead all other late com
petitors last night."
Earlier, John Snyder, Stuben
ville, Ohio, caused a brief flurry
of excitement when he ran up a
string of nine strikes before a 4-7
leave in the 10th left him with
a 275 game in the singles. Sny
der wound up with a 645 series,
well out of the money.
Saperstein
Fires Tatum
Chicago (U.R) Goose Tatum
the clown prince of basketball
and at one time the highest paid
player in the game, has been
fired from the Harlem Globe
trotters by owner coach Abe
Saperstein.
Saperstein said Wednesday he
had unconditionally released
the veteran center for going
AWOL and would not renew his
contract.
The long-armed, solemn-faced
center was suspended March 15,
Saperstein said, "because of re
peated violations of team rules,
climaxed by his unauthorized
absence from the squad through
a series of seven advertised and
scheduled appearances."
Saperstein apparently hoped
the "Goose," known for his
crowd-pleasing antics and great
ball-handling, would ask for re
instatement.
But, Saperstein said, "Tatum
has not been in touch with me
since I suspended him."

Jack Babbit Brooklyn Dodgers Knot
Record With 9th Consecutive Victory
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
Those jack rabbit Brooklyn
Dodgers may be clear out of sight
before you can say Jack Robin
son. Winners of nine straight games
already, the Dodgers can estab
lish a new modern major league
record for fast getaways by de
feating the Phillies today for
their 10th victory in a row since
the bell rang.
The Dodgers tied the record of
nine in a row held jointly by the
New York Giants, St. Louis
Browns and themselves when
they came from behind to over
take the Phillies, 3-2, Wednesday
night. They looked so good in
winning that even their ultra
conservative skipper, Walt Al
ston, couldn't contain himself.
"This is the first time since
I've taken over the club that it
has ever played this well in the
three important departments
hitting, pitching and fielding,"
Alston declared. -Ample
Reason to Glow
The usually solemn Brooklyn
boss had ample reason to glow
inasmuch as the world cham
pion Giants are now six games
behind the Dodgers and the sec
ond place Milwaukee Braves are
two-and-a-half games to the rear.
Brooklyn beat the Phillies the
hard way after falling behind,
2-0, to them Wednesday night.
Steve Ridzik held the Dodgers
hitless until Sandy Amoros dou
bled with two out in the sixth.
Then he walked two men in the
seventh, hit Jackie Robinson
with a pitch, and walked Duke
Snider to force in a run. Lynn
Lovenbuth replaced Ridzik and
was greeted by Gil Hodges' two
run single.
All told, Brooklyn made only
three hits, but they were enough
for Billy Loes to register his sec
ond win of the year even though
Clem Labine relieved him in the
eighth.
Cubs Fading
Bobby Thomson was the big
man in Milwaukee's 9-5 decision
over the fading Chicago Cubs.
Thomson drove in five runs with
a grand-slam homer and a single

Scraps; Portland Stymied
By PETER HAYES
United Press Sports Writer
Excellent pitching by Jehosie
Heard and Al (Two-gun) Gettel
featured the only two games
played in another rain-abbreviated
Pacific Coast League slate
Wednesday night.
Heard yielded only two hits in
southpawing Seattle to a 3-0 win
over Sacramento's league-leaders.
And Gettel finally register
ed his first - win after dropping
three in a row as Oakland flat
tended Los Angeles, 6-2, on six
hit pitching.
But in Portland and San Fran
cisco the box-office took an
other beating from the rain. The
Beavers were stymied for the
second straight day in their ef
forts to launch the home season
with a day-night doubleheader
against San Diego. The Seals
Hollywood game also was rained
out for the second night in a row.
Rain-soaked Beavers
Fanfare
Gary Lewis, junior javelin
thrower for the Medford high
track crew, is determined to
speak cautiously from now on.
An alternate at the Hayward
relays last Saturday, he was
getting dressed when another
young man came into the dress
ing room and started to don
track togs. Lewis asked him
what he was going to do and the
other athlete replied that he was
going to throw the javelin.
That prompted Lewis to ask
the other spear tosser whether
he thought he would be able to
make 180 feet that day. (Eldon
Francis, Medford, had bettered
170 feet in the meet). The an
swer was "I sure hope so."
Then, "where did you get
those javelins?" was a
query put to Lewis. The Med
fordite explained that the Black
Tornado got them from Bud
Held who holds the world's
record.
"My brother makes them,
Lewis's dressing room compan
ion reported. "What's your
name?," Lewis asked. "Bud
Held," was the reply.
Held went out and in an exhi
bition toss, heaved the spear 262
feet HVfe inches, less than a
foot short of his world mark.
IMPROVES THROWING
Despite his embarrassment,
Lewis has benefitted already
from pointers picked up from
watching Held, according to
Tornado Coach Bob Newland.
The junior, throwing the jave
lin for the first time this year,
has been out around 155 and
156 feet this week.
Newland said that Medford
was the only school using the
Held javelin at the Hayward
relays.
WOOTON TO CEDAR RAPIDS
Derald Wooton, ex-Medford
high pitcher, has been assigned
to Cedar Rapids, la., of the fast
Class B Three I League. At last
report he was still training at
Vero Beach, Fla., but teams
were beginning to ship out. Woo
ton's contract is with a Brook
lyn Dodger farm club, Elmira,
N.Y., of the Class A Eastern
League. He has pitched for
Shawnee, Okla., of the Sooner
State League for two seasons.

Glen Gorbous, ex-Medford
Nugget, drove in a double for
the Cincinnati Redlegs Tues
day, the final blast that sent
St. Louis Pitcher Vic Raschi

ceived a reply from Molly Chase
Northam, chairman of - the com
mittee in charge of the selection.
She explained' the method of
choosing the school and made
other comments.
Mrs. Northam pointed out that
there are 12 judges chosen from
throughout the state and that
judges are assigned certain as
pects of the whole tourney such
as team attitude, general be
havior and rooting sections.
She brought out that the team
attitude judges ascertain only
how a team works with other
teams and the referees. Judges
are given only so many points
which can be awarded to each
team, the total being a portion
of the 100 per cent for each
school.
General behavior judges, Mrs.
Northam reported, watch only
students' behavior at the tour
nament, stores, hotels, motels,
streets, private home and Erb
memorial building. Again judges
have only a given number of
points they can award. Rooting
section judges are concerned
with behavior. Colorful attire
and yells do not count.
Percentage Determined
At the end of the entire tour
nament, points are tabulated and
total points which could be made
are divided into points received
to determine each school's per
centage.
Mrs. Northam agreed that it
was unfortunate to have the
championship team win the
sportsmanship award in the
same year but she pointed out
that Eugene had always felt it
would never win the trophy be
cause of its greater number of
students. She mentioned that, if
some Eugene high student, who
might not even go to the games,
was to get into trouble by steal
ing, drinking or other offense, it
would count against his school.
Only students from other towns
were reprimanded by police this
year, she reported..
The chairman spoke of the de
flated balls incident at the
tournament. She said judges
brought this to her attention.
By contacting police and other
responsible people they were
not able to ascertain that Eugene
students were responsible.
Others sat in the section, too,
she said.
Mrs. Northam stated that she
believed the judging was com
pletely fair. She added that the
ReActive club is trying to make
improvements every year.

Baltimore Wins First
Baltimore registered its first
victory of the American League
season after six successive set
backs by beating New York, 6-3,
as Erv Palica and Ray Moore
collaborated on a six-hit pitch
ing job. Two ex-Yankees, catcher
Hal Smith and shortstop Willie
Miranda, figured prominently in
the Orioles' triumph. Smith con
nected for a two-run homer in
the fifth and Miranda sparkled
afield, making three spectacular
stops and figuring in two key
double plays. Bob Grim suffered
his second loss. Palica was the
winner.
Willard Nixon of the Red Sox
pitched a neat five-hitter to beat
the Senators, 1-0, and move Bos
ton a game and a half in front
in the American League. Boston
got to Chuck Stobbs for its only
run in the fourth on a pair of
scratch hits and rookie Norm

Verdict Over
Jim Carter
Washington U.R) Surprise
winner Orlando Zulueta, whose
jab-and-run tactics paid off in a
spbt non-title decision over Jim
my Carter, today demanded a
promised" second bout with
Carter, this time with the light
weight championship on the
line.
"I'll give him . a title shot if
he can come , up with the
money," answered Carter's man
ager.
Zulueta, fast-stepping Cuban
who had lost three straight
fights and entered the ring
at Uline Arena a 3-1 underdog
for Wednesday night's nation-
ally-televsied 10-rounder, upset
the erratic champion by making
double use of a brilliant left jab
to stop Carter's rushes and to
roll up points.
'Carter's manager promised
us a title shot if Zulueta won
this fight," said Hymie Wall-
man, manager of the Cuban.
"Now we definitely want a
crack at the title."
Guarantee Sought
But Carter's manager, Willie
Ketchum, said matching the two
men again for the title won't be
as simple as all that first Zu
lueta has to get someone to
guarantee Carter the. money he
wants.
"And it won't be in Washing'
ton," said the angry Ketchum,
still boiling over the official's
voting that he called "a give
away decision." ... ....
"How can you win -with deci
sion like t h a t?" demanded
Ketchum.
"My boy led all the way. He
won easy. Zulueta ran all night.
Zulueta never, hurt hurt him.
Jimmy never got marked."
Referee Harry Volkman voted
for Zulueta, 96 points to 93, and
Judge Joe Bunsa agreed by a 97
94 count. But Judge Benny Al
perstein thought Carter was the
winner, 97-93. The United Press
