squads did not cast ballots
for their own players.
While a total of 10 ballots
were submitted, no player
could receive more than eight
votes. Two points were award
ed for first team selection and
one for a second team pick,
making a possible of 16, the
number Anderson, Petersen
and Benner each received.
DeLap was near unanimous
with 15 points andx Olson
gained 14. Olson edged Lowell
Dean of Medford, who got 12
points, for the fifth spot on
the first crew.
Dean Heads Second Club
Dean headed the second
five which included George
Koch (10) of Medford, Dick
Hayes (7) of Grants Pass, Bob
Johnson (6) of Ashland and
Bill White (5) of Crater.
The first team included no
repeaters from 1958. However,
Petersen, a second team all-
stater last year, moved up
from the all-conference sec
ond five. Dean was named
to the loop all-star first quint
last year.
Of the No. 1 all-star quintet
only Anderson and Benner
will be back next year. They
are juniors while Petersen,
DeLap and Olson are seniors.
The first five presents a
good balance of height, speed
and firepower. Anderson, 6-3,
led the Black Tornado with
380 points and 190 rebounds,
averaging 18.1 markers and
nine board retrieves per
game over 21 games. He set
a league record of 41 points
for a single game. Petersen,
6-4, headed the Pelicans with
373 points, averaging 17 points
and 17 rebounds a game over
22 contests. DeLap was sec
ond high tally man for Klam
ath with 273. He is the short
est on the all-conference five
at 5-11.
Olson Had 36
Olson and Benner, each 6-1,
headed Grants Pass with 218
and 209 points, respectively.
Benner averaged 13.8 for 15
games and Olson 13.6. Olson
had 36 points in one game,
which was believed to be a
league mark before Anderson
got his 41.
The poll was conducted and
ballots tabulated by the Mail
Tribune sports department.
Coaches voting were Frank
Roelandt, Medford; Dean
White, Klamath Falls; i.loyd
Hoffine, Crater; Earl Iba, Ash
land, and Gordon Prehm,
Grants Pass.
Sportscasters and sports-
writers previously voted along
with coaches in the Mail Trib
une basketball poll. The sys
tem was changed to allow
the players to participate.
More Research
On Fish Sought
By Legislation
Salem-(UPD-The joint House
and Senate fish and game
committees discussed two
measures designed to promote
more research on fish here
Wednesday.
House Joint Memorial No.
5 asks Congress to appropriate
more funds for basic fish re
search. It says construction
of dams Is being held up for
lack of adequate research.
Senate Bill 416 would place
a $1 license fee on salmon
and steelhead with the money
earmarked for joint research
by the Oregon Fish and Game
commissions.
J. M. Sellers, representing
Columbia river salmon and
tuna packers, said he thought
sports anglers would not ob
ject to the tag and should be
paying something to help re
lieve the pressure on fish re
sources. In answer to a question,
Sellers said he thought com
mercial fishermen likewise
would go along, with an in
crease in commercial licenses
earmarked for research.
Game Commissioner Phil
Schneider was a little dis
turbed because the money
would be used jointly. He said
this might undermine the
Game commission's license
structure and affect funds re
ceived from the federal gov
ernment. John Amacher, Winchester,
said the $1 sports tag would
raise about $200,000 a year.
He advocated that the ways
and means committee restore
cuts in the Fish commission
budget to make sure the tag
money could be used for addi
tional research purposes.
Sen. Andrew Naterlin D
Newport, acting as chairman
of the joint session, said both
the bill and the memorial
would receive further study.

$1,000,000 Offered By Rosensohn
New York -flJPD- Bill Rosen-
sohn's million-dollar offer
placed Truman Gibson square
ly on the spot today as Gibson
arrived in New York and tried
to secure the Archie Moore
Ray Robinson light heavy
weight championship fight.
Gibson, of Chicago, presi
dent of Jim Norris' National
Boxing enterprises, was sched
uled for a New York confer
ence with middleweight cham
pion Robinson who claims to
be negotiating both for him
self and for light heavyweight
ruler Moore.
Would Gibson attempt to
out-bid young Rosensohn of
New York, who Thursday had
offered the fabulous guarantee
of a $1,000,000 gross gate if
he could stage the Moore
Robinson fight at Yankee Sta
dium in September? That was
the big question.
Largest In History
Rosensohn's guarantee was
the largest ever offered in
ring history. It exceeded the
$600,000 guarantee given by
the multimillionaire Zecken
dorf family to Rosensohn last
Tuesday for his decision to
stage the Floyd Patterson
Ingemar Johansson heavy
weight title fight at Yankee
Stadium, June 23.
A gross gate of $1,000,000
for the Moore-Robinson fight
would provide a net gate of
about $850,000 after federal
and state taxes and fees of
ring officials are taken out.
And it's from the net gate that
fighters always are paid.
Rosensohn guaranteed 60
per cent of the net gate to Ar
chie and Sugar Ray to be di
vided as they saw fit. Robin
son said he and Moore had
agreed to split 30-30. Thus,
each would receive about
$255,000, if their total 60 per
cent was $510:000.
In addition they would split I
60 per cent of other net re
ceipts from television and ra
dio, although Sugar Ray
would have a separate deal
for the movie rights.

Orioles Stall One Year
Away, Richards Reports
By LEO H. PETERSEN
UPI Sports Editor
Miami, Fla.-JPD-Paul Rich
ards jumped on the Detroit
bandwagon today, calling the
Tigers "the only club in the
league which has improved"
and the only one with any
real chance to beat the Yan
kees. The manager of the Balti
more Orioles isn't optimistic
about his own club's chances.
"Our kids are still a year or
two away, he pointed out. I
don't see any club in the
league which has improved
except Detroit. I don't know
whether they will catch the
Yankees, but I figure they
have the best chance."
He thinks Ray Narleski and
Don Mossi "will be a big help"
to the Tigers.
"Last year they hurt for re
lief pitching," Richards said.
"That bullpen weakness
meant the Tigers had to go too
far with their starters. Narles
ki and Mossi could change
that."
Needs Hitting
He rates his own pitching
as "strong.'
"We need hitting," he add
ed. "And you can't buy that.
You just have to wait for the
kids to develop."
Just as he said that, Dave
Nicholson, one of the highest
priced bonus players in the
game, belted one out of the
park.
"The kid can't miss," Rich
ards declares. "All he does is
flick the ball and it goes out
of the park. But like so many
of jour youngsters, he needs
more experience.
"I just wish I had 30
Nicholsons around."
Nicholson, an outfielder, is
only 18. The Orioles paid a re
puted $100,000 to sign him.
"When you see a kid like
him you have to be optimistic
about the future. You just
have to wait for them to de
velop and you never know
how long it will be.
Kids Not Ready
"Our farm system is start
ing to produce. But we're in
the same position as Kansas
City and some other clubs.
Our kids aren't ready yet and
no club will sell an established
star for cash. So until the kids
are ready we just have to go
along with the best available.
You don't win pennants with
the kind, of players available
on the market today.
