East Wins
Star Game
' r St. Louis HP Bob Pettit
: won the most valuable player
trophy, but the Bob Cousy-
sparked East All-Stars proved
once again that it takes a
; team effort even to win an
: all-star game.
: Pettit's superb 28-point, 26-
- rebound performance was not
- enough to prevent the East
- from achieving a come-from-:
behind 130-118 victory over
; the West Tuesday night in the
National Basketball associa
tion all-star game.
The St. Louis star's scoring
and rebounding totals both
were records for the NBA
classic, as was the 248-point
total produced by both teams.
Superior Balance
But in the end it was the
East's superior balance and
the "clutch" second-half
shooting of Cousy that en
abled the East to score its
sixth triumph in the eight
games that have been played.
The East stars won despite
a sub-standard performance
'.by Bill Russell of the Celtics,
who was hampered by an
. ankle injury.
Russell did not score a field
goal until the fourth minute
, of the second half, made only
"11 points in all and had little
success in his efforts to stop
the jump-shooting Pettit. The
six-foot-10 Celtics center

through the third period and
missed the greater part of the

regular-season points during
his lifetime.

$7,500 Cut
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
Robin Roberts took a $7,
500 cut today without an ar
gument or an alibi but with
a definite understanding he
can get that money back if
he has a good year.
It was the second straight
year the Phillies nicked into
a salary that once reached
$50,000 and the 30-year-old
righthander readily said "we
didn't argue this time" in the
face of his 10-22 record last
season, which was his worst
ever.
Roberts, who drew about
$45,000 last year, was cut ap
proximately 16 per cent to
the vicinity of, $37,500.
The Phillies were allowed
to slash Roberts 25 per cent
under the rules but club pres
ident Robert M. Carpenter
said "that's not club policy."
Carpenter added he would
be delighted to restore the
cut if the hard-working Rob
erts has "a good year."
Idaho's Simmons Leading
PC Loop in Total Points
Los Angeles a?) Sham
shooting Gary Simmons,
Idaho guard, today led the

total scoring with a 22.7
average in six games.
Weekly statistics released
by the PCC commissioners
office showed that the 5-foot,
11-inch senior from Twin
Falls, Idaho, had scored .48

for a total of 136 points.
Simmons was trailed in
total scoring by Washington's
Doug Smart, 6 - foot, 7-inch
center, who averaged 20.4
points in five games with a
total of 40 field goals and 22
free throws.
Forward Dave Gambee of
Oregon State was next with
a 17-point average, followed
by Ken Nanson, Oregon State,
15.8, and Charlie Franklin,
Oregon, 15.3. '
Smart Stands Out
Smart, a junior from Se
attle, was tops in total field
goals. In five games, he at
tempted 88 and made 40 for
an average of .455. He also
was second in the recovery of
rebounds, recovering 61 out
