lem of selecting the "outside" men
has popped up. Glenn Moore, 6-6
center and En l ie Tichenor, 6:5 for

double post positions under the
boards, but Peterson Is still delib
erating over Uie other three starters.
Butch Kimpton, Donn Taucher,

Redding will have the jump on

Compared to the Pels two games
against Reno and a three-quarter
Jamboree, Redding has tangled with
six foes since the season opened.
Although the Wolves have only been
able to come out on top of the
heap once, while losing- the other
five frays, the Shasta cagers are
said to be a strong club again

Racial
Incident
Explodes
NEW ORLEANS ifi Forward
Shellie McMillon Bradley's Net?ro
basketball ace, created an, uncer
tain atmosphere for Loyola s inte
grated athletics program last night
when he became the central figure
in the school's first racial Incident.
McMillon, a 19-ycar-old sopho
more from Chicago, aroused the
crowd last night when he fouled
out and saluted fans by sticking
out his tongue.
The cheers which greeted him
during p r e g a m e . introductions
turned into jeers and the Loyola
band snapped into "Dixie", march
ing song of the Confederate Army.
A number of fans serenaded Mc-
Million with "Bye; Bye Blackbird"
as he left the court.
McMillon's fouling tactics,
termed "unnecessary" by sports
writer Buddy oilibcrto of the
Times-Picayune, started a Loyola
stampede to the free throw line.
Loyola, behind 15 points when the
fouling began, hit on 21 of 26 free
throws to take a Tl-65 victory and
hand Bradley its first loss,
Loyola Coach Jim MrCafferty
later minimized the Incident, He
said he thought McMillon "lost his
head" and became "disgusted
with himself.
Most of the fouls took place at
the far end of the court and we
couldn't see them from our bench,"
McCaffcrty said. The Loyola coach
said he thought the incident would
have little effect on future games
with teams that have Negro play
ers.
The University .of San Francisco,
top-ranked team in the nation.
meets Loyola here Friday night.
San Francisco has three Negro
players on Its roster, Including Al
America center Bill Russell.
Dlliberto wrote that McMillon
played "very well in the first half
even though he 'showboated' every
chance he got." He said "when
the game got close he lost all of
his poise and started fouling Inten
tionally."
Dillberto attributed McMillon's
fouling the turning point in the
game since It enabled Loyola to
overcome the big lead and take
the victory.
There was no other demonstra
tion in the crowd which is seated
on an Integrated basis.
Neither McMillon nor Bradley
Coach Bob Vanatta could be
reached for comment.
Loyola embarked on desegreRa
Uon in athletic events last year.
Guard Al Lewis of LaSalle College
was the pioneer and played with
out incident as have several other
Nnrro players on teams in pre
liminary games.
Dillberto said Bradley's other
?ro player, guard Curley John
7tt. wan a itcmleman during the
Came, but was soundly booed when
r Wt tn name because of Mc
Millon's behavior.
Ballhawklilg Ron Mancasola stole
the ball from OTI as the Owls
came down floor, but Tecb'a John
McCutcheon In turn swiped the ball
from Mancasola in an exchange
that brought the large crowd to
their feet. McCutcheon then fired
a pass to Foster who soloed in for
a cripple and Tech led 10-68 with
only 35 seconds left to play.
Bogle was awarded free toss
on Richelieu's foul and the pic
ture grew dark for the home folks
of Shasta. But Bogle missed the
Killer, and Jones cleared the boards
for the Knights. In the next few
seconds Shasta had tied the score
again as Richelieu hit with a spin
ning Jump shot from the key an
ihe score stood 70-70 with only 10
seconds showing on the clock.
The Owls took three unsuccess-
ful shots at the Shasta basket as
the time clicked away, but before
Ihe Hoot Birds could find the
range. Jones cleared the boards
and in the process was fouled by
Fischer, setting Uie stage for the
climatic finish.
Four of Tech's regulars hit in
double figures as Bogle and Fos
ter each carded 17, while Fischer
and Bob Frost accounted for 12
points apiece. High for the victor
ious Knights was Mancasola with
16, while Richelieu and Jack Sun-
Itsch added 12 to the Shasta cause.
Shasta's second half - downfall
started when Sunitsch. a former
Klamath Falls high school star, was
called for his fifth infraction with
10:25 remaining to play. The 5-7
freshman was the spearhead of the
Shasta first half surge and his bril
liant defensive play kept the Owls
al bay. On two occasions, the pint
sized Knight guard swept the air
of Tech shots, and on numerous
other occasions deflected and In
tercepted OTI passes. When Sun
itsch left the game, the Shasta fol
lowers stood and gave him a re
sounding ovation.
After the game, coach Wally
Palmberg said Bogle might possib
ly nave suffered a dislocated
back when he tumbled to the floor
in the opening minutes of the first
half. The 6-9 center of the Owls
attempted to check a shot by
Mancasola, who stands only 5-7, and
in the move fell headlong over
the Shasta oager, landing on his
hip and shoulder. Bogle sat out
most of the first half, but came
back to lead the Owls second half
assault despite the severe back
pain that plagued him.

Rebels' Game Movies
Impress TCU Mentor

FORT WORTH, Tex. (UP(
Mississippi may not have anyone
iu inuicn jexas cnrisiian s break
away All-America back Jimmy
Swink, but Coach Abe Martin
cringes at the thought of the over
all speed of Ole Miss.
The usually calm coach of the
Southwest Conference champions,
who will meet Mississippi in the
Cotton Bowl Jan. 2. won't belittle
his own hefty and experienced
crew, but he is impressed with
what he has learned about Johnny
Vaught's Rebels via game movies.
He discussed their use of the
flanker in motion, the last-ditch
laterals of Rebel quarterback
Eagle Day after Day has KOtten
past the end, the passing of Day
and John Blalack and the receiving
of halfbacks Billy Kinard and Earl
Blair.
TEAM SPEED
But, he admitted that it was
Mississippi's team speed that
scared him the most especially
the line "that hits quick and
charges hard."
Martin pointed out that the only
game TCU lost was to Texas A&M,
a team which also stressed quick
getaway speed.
The big and mobile Horned
Frogs lost that game because they
played too conservatively and
didn't attempt to open up until
the cause was lost.
Quarterback Charles Curtis, a
hesitant signal caller early in the
season has since become more

daring and the Frogs moved into
their eighth bowl game with a wide
variety of offensive fireworks.
Tne Frogs capitalize most on
Swink's long gains through or off
tackle after a fullback fake but
Curtis contributed passes that net
ted eight touchdowns to go along
with the 20 that Swink put on the
scoreboard with his running.
DECOY
Curtis also learned to use Swink
as a decoy, and to send fullbacks
Vernon Hallbeck or Harold Pollard
up the middle and halfbacks Ray
Taylor and Ken Wuieburg, the lat
ter a reserve, scooting off at a
tangent from the well defensed
Swink.
Martin's study of Mississippi's
game movies revealed that the two
clubs use a similar attack a
T-formation combing many varia
tions of that offense.
The TCU line anchored around
Hugh Pitts, a second team All
America center, and flanked by
two fine receivers in O'Day Wil
liams and Bryan Engram, is hefti
er and more experienced than
Mississippi's but It may not be
as fast.
Mississippi's only bowl victory in
four starts came against TCU In
the 1948 Delta Bowl. That started
TCU on a string of four straight
bowl setbacks after winning its
first three.

DETROIT W Any Ideas you
might have had about buying a
Tiger tor Christmas suffered a set
back: today. Tigers, at least the
Detroit baseball variety, won't be
for sale until after the holidays.
That was the official word as a
New York syndicate Joined the
line of prospective bidders for the
highly regarded Detroit franchise
in the American League.
Although New York reports said
the syndicate, headed by the ne
tlme Chicago Cubs infielder Cy
Block, had offered more than two
million dollars for the club, the bid
was viewed here as a "just look
ing, thank you" inquirv.
Walter O. (Spike) Briggs Jr.,
oresident of the Tigers, received a
letter from Block yesterday. He
said money wasn't mentioned but
that Block asked for information
about the club with a view to buy
ing. The club, which has been In the
Briggs family for years, probably
will be sold to somebody before
the 1958 season opens. Some legal
experts say that complications
