(UPI) MEDFORDSgTRlBUNB SPORTS Slats Gill Admits He Has Problems, But 'I Also Have By JAMES F. COUR United Press International CORVALLIS (UPI) - Oregon State basketball Coach Slats Gill admits he has problems but "I also have Mel Counts." And Counts, a 7-foot center with a knack of scoring points, figures to be enough to carry the Beavers to "another good season," according to the veter an coach. The 230 - pound senior pivot star led Oregon State to the NCAA Western regional cham pionship and a 22-9 record last season. "Mel is doing everything bet ter this year shooting, rebound ing, defense," Gill said. "He's just more mature now." Counts has scored 1,198 points in two varsity seasons. As a jun ior, he tallied 661 points and pulled down 485 rebounds in 31 games after collecting 537 points and snaring 401 rebounds in 29 contests as a sophomore. The Oregon State school scor ing record is 1.468 points, set by Dave Gambee from 1956 through 1958. One of "Best Ever" He's one of the best big men ever in college," Gill said of Counts. How does Gill, in his 36th season as head basketball coach at Oregon State, rate Counts among the players he has coached. Well, I'd have to think a lot before I would put anybody ahead of him." The Beavers' biggest problem will be their lack of height after Counts. Gill said he probably will open the season against Wash ington State at Pullman next Monday and Tuesday with Counts at center, 6-7 junior Jim There's no feeling like the feeling of a full wallet when the holidays roll around.

Quicker Team "But I think we will have more quickness than last season and our outside shooting should be better. And we will try to run when we can because one of Counts' biggest assets is get ting the ball off the defensive board." Top losses to graduation were football star Terry Baker, a 6-3 guard, and track standout Steve Pauly, a 6-4 forward. They ranked as their team's second and third best scorers as sopho mores. "Our schedule is really going to be something," Gill said, "Stanford, Seattle, California, Washington and Oregon all are going to be tough on the Pacific Coast and, in addition, we play Indiana and Cincinnati." He added "I'm particularly worried about those games with Cincinnati." And, indeed, he should be.

In an unusual year of selec tions, made tough by injuries and by the fact that so many men failed to live up to their past reputations, the University of Washington scored what must have been an all-time first when it had Junior Coffey named as the first-team fullback, and Charlie Browning the second team fullback. 'The problem was." said one coach who aided in the selec tions, "that they were just about the only fullbacks who did out standing jobs this year among the major schools." Craig Morton of California. who led the Big Six in passing and total offense, was named to the quarterback spot in a tight battle with Washington's ball-handling expert, Bill Doug las. Bob Berry of Oregon was a close third in the balloting, followed by Gordon Queen of Oregon State. Repeaters on the squad are the two guards. Damon Bame of Southern California and Rick Redman of Washington, Junior Coffey of Washington and All American Mel Renfro of Oregon. Renfro, however, was far from unanimous due to the fact he was injured so often. There were three unanimous choices: end Vern Burke of Ore gon State; center Marv Harris of Stanford; and halfback Mike Garrett of Southern California. Garrett is the only sophomore on the first team. He made such outstanding performances in every city in which he played that nobody forgot him. Mel Jfrotit of UCLA, the other end; and tackles Gary Kirner of USC and Mike Briggs of Wash ington rounded out the squad Season Tickets On Sale For MHS Basketball Season tickets for Medford High School home basketball games are now being offered for sale to past-season ticket hold ers.
