Matter of fact, the weekly
major college statistics issued
Saturday by the NCAA serv
ice bureau indicate that Cole
man can claim top billing
right now.
Although his college of 500
students plays teams with
much greater manpower Cole
man has become the highest
scoring freshman in major
college history. He also has
jumped from 13th place last
week to fifth this week in
the current individual scor

In three games last week to
give him an even 600 points

Talent continued its spot
less season Friday night, cop
ping its 15th Jackson County
B league basketball triumph
by whipping St. Mary's 60 to
42 while Jacksonville almost
duplicated that result with a
59 to 42 verdict over Pros
pect. The Bulldogs of Talent have
been concentrating on ball
control in recent games. On
Friday Coach Millard Webb
turned them loose In their
more natural running game.
They utilized their speed and
hustle to overcome St. Mary's
height and employed their us
ual tough defense to gain
their 17th win of the 1957
1958 campaign.
Jacksonville took control
in the second period, played
the Cougars on even terms in
the third quarter and out
romped the Prospect five 21
to 17 in the last quarter. The
Redskins controlled the back
boards. Talent had 12 to 5, 25 to
13 and 39 to 29 period mar
gins. Phil Combs put in 20
points and Jerry Baer 16 for
Tale'nt and Mike King and
Gary Miksche 10 for St.
Mary's.
Prospect led Jacksonville
at the quarter but the 'Skins
were ahead 27 to 14 and 38
to 25 at the other intermis
sions. Marion JJoweil had 19
markers and Doyle Bransom
12 for Jacksonville and Eldon
