Eugene
Collide
Here Tonight, Saturday
. One of Oregon's strongest
high school basketball crew:
displays its wares in Medford
tonight. South Eugene s un
beaten Axemen are guests of
the Medford Black Tornado
on the Hedrick court.
The clubs also play here
Saturday.
The Axemen are one of the
strongest clubs the Medford
contingent will face in the
regular season this year and
are expected to rank at the
toD of the, heap along with
Klamath Falls of the Tor
nado's own Southern Oregon
conference when the first
prep rating polls are publish
ed next week.
Medford is the definite
underdog with a less ex
perienced quint going against
the veteran Eugene club. But
the Tornado, win or lose, can
gain considerable against
team the caliber ol the Axe-
Robertson
Brilliant
At Garden
".. By JOHN GRIFFIN
.. . New York (IP) Not since
Hank Luisetti came storming
-out of the West with his amaz
ing one-hand shots has a bas-
"ketball player rocked New
York in his debut like Oscar
Robertson of Cincinnati.
"The greatest sophomore I
.have ever seen." said his
: coach, George Smith, after
I the Cincinnati sophomore
smashed the Madison Square
I Garden scoring record by fir-
-ing 56 points in a 118-54 rout
of Seton Hall at the famed
"pop shot palace."
: And the echoing salute from
the "big town" meant that
-Robertson is a cinch to win
the annual award that New
;York writers give to the out
Ttanding visiting player to ap
pear here.
This is all that Robertson
did Thursday night:
1. Broke the Garden single
game scoring mark of 54
points set in 1947 by Harry
Boykoff of St. John's; 2. Led
Cincinnati to a new Garden
team scoring record, topping
the 116 by Bradley last year;
3. Broke the Garden single
game record for baskets by
notching 22, one more than
the great George Mikan tal
lied in a 'game in 1945; 4.
Broke the Cincinnati school
record of 49 points set last
year by Jack Twyman, now a
pro star; 5. Personally out
scored the whole Seton Hall
team, 56-54, when he left the
game with 2:36 to play; and
6. Topped even any scoring
show by a pro in Garden history.

and also raise its prestige.

Yankees in
Senior Tiff
Mobile, Ala. (IP) North I
coach Joe Kuharich and Reb
el mentor Paul Brown added
finishing touches today on the
eve of the ninth annual Senior
Bowl football game.
The weather was expected I
to be fair with temperatures
in the 60's at the 10:05 a.m.
p.s.t. kickoff Saturday.
The North squad was a
slight favorite, partly because
of its weight advantage on de
fense. The Yankee defensive
unit was expected to hold an
average five-pound per man
edge on the South forward
defensive wall. The overall
weight for the North was 211
as compared to the Rebel av
erage of 206. v

Knicks Score
45 in Period
By UNITED PRESS
Remember when a team
used to score 45 points in an
entire basketball game? Well,
in the high-flying, basket-a-minute
National Basketball
association this season, they're
scoring that many points in
a single period.
Trailing, 92-91, after three
periods, the New York Knick
erbockers went on a scoring
spree that netted them 45
points in the final session
Thursday night and a 136-123
victory over the Boston Cel
tics. The New York-Boston game
was the first of a twinbill at
Syracuse's War Memorial au
ditorium. In the nightcap,
the Nationals defeated the
Minneapolis Lakers, 127-122.
Thus, the two games produced
a total of 508 points.
