FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON ' PAGE NINE Top Cage Club Nabs 87-78 Win By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Get yourself two kids who can set things up and take charge. Pick a center who can rebound, is mobile and can shoot. Add a pair of forwards who drive, shoot and follow shots. Put 'em all to gether and you have West Vir ginia, the nation's No. 1 major college basketball team. Poised, alert and confident. That's how the Mountaineers looked as they build a 16-1 rec ord in the Garden's main bout by shaking off a scrappy St. John's of Brooklyn for an 87-78 decision last night. Holy Cross scored a 79-74 vic tory over New York University in the Garden opener. Connecticut used height and a late spurt for a 107-95 victory over Vermont, and Massachusetts took charge in the second half to beat Rhode Island 65-60 in a pair of Yankee Confer ence games. Western Michigan slipped past Kent 79-78 in the Mid-American. Little St. Peter's NJ rapped Loyola of Chicago 1)2-63. William & Mary whipped Hampden-Sydney 85-59. West Virginia, long a one-man show with AU America Hot Rod Hundley, got its big scoring from sophomore Jerry West with 21. But it was the Mountaineers' us ual balanced attack that did it. Able Al Seiden, a 5-10 handy man, was top scorer with 30 points and trieaered St. John's spirited, almost desperate first-half play that five times hauled the Red men from behind and put them ahead 40-38 at the intermission. Holy Cross built and blew a 10 point lead, but Jack Whalen, benched early in the second half with four Dersonals. came back to revive the Crusaders. He and Tom Ryan, who scored on a set shot that put Holy Cross ahead to stay with 1:51 left, each scored 19.

Calif. (UP- Take it from oP Casey Stengel there'll be no "breaking up" of the Yankees. Just because his club happened to lose the World Series to the Milwaukee Braves doesn't mean that the Yankees still aren't the best team in the world, in the opinion of Stengel. What club in the American League Is better?" Casey asked at a little gathering the other day in San Diego. But he isn t standing still. There will be some new faces in the Yankee lineup next season may be not every day, but then, who does play every day for oP Case? There s a young fellow trom San Diego, only 20 years old. named Deron Johnson. He played Binghamton in the Eastern League last year, and was named the most valuable player in the loop and batted .310," says Casey. I saw him play one time. He hit a low line drive that went on forever and never gets very high off the ground. This kid has pow er. L thought he hit that ball like DiMaggio. Stengel isn t sure where he 11 play Johnson. The lad has been used at half a dozen positions. He might use him at third or in left field. "But we have that (Norm) Sie bern who was the outstanding player in the American Associa tion. They tell me that I'll have to play him in left field. "Maybe I can get them both into the lineup. Why use fellows who hit singles when you can get men who will clout those three- run homers. Whoosh 1 Whoosh! With such youngsters as Tony Kubek and Mickey Mantle on the club, the addition of Johnson would give the Yankees the nu cleus of a good club for 15 years. "Wonder how valuable a player is who makes the Yankees at the age of 20 and stays until he is 25?" pondered Casey. Stengel likes to talk about the good old days but he can change to dreaming about the future quicker than an umpire can hol ler "Out." Commission Nixes Fight BOISE, Idaho. Wl The State Athletic Commission has refused to give its blessings to a pro posed fight between Gene Full mer, ex-middleweight champion from West Jordan, Utah, and Mickey Rhodes of Boise. Chairman Eddie Cole of Cald well, reached in Pocatello, said "the commission doesn't feel Mickey Rhodes would be a suit able opponent for Gene Fullmer." But Cole added such a fight might be sanctioned later "if... Rhodes proved to be in good con dition and demonstrated it in one or more fights leading up to such a bout." P ' By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS With Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox pocketing the highest contract ever paid, a baseball player a reported 135,O0O at tention today was drawn to the American League champion Yan kees.

Hlckam AFB 69 County Quints Slate Games The Malin Mustangs will placi their newly acquired league lead on the block as they face the cellar-dwelling Gilchrist Grizzlies on the Gilchrist court in one of three county "B" league basket ball games to be played on Fri day night. On the Merrill maplewood the Huskies in fourth place, tangle with the third place Chiloquin Panthers. The second slotted Bly Bobcats journey to Henley to contest the Hornets in a non-league game. The out-of-league tilt may prove det rimental to the Bly quint since it affords either Merrill or Gilchrist an opportunity to tie them in their present position. At the same time the Malin five could strengthen their hold on the number one spot by downing the luckless Grizzlies. The Sacred Heart Trojans, one game out of the basement, will try to victimize the Bonanza Ant lers, who are in nun place, at the SUA gym. Tonight's contests bring the league rapidly nearer its close, many of the teams have only three games left in league play. Wins at this point for the top two or three squads could be very important. The county tournament, which will decide the team to go to the class "B" tourney at Pendleton, will be held on the OTI court February 27, 28 and March 1. PORTLAND Wl Joe Francis of Oregon State College Thursday night received the Bill Hayward Trophy as Oregon's outstanding athlete of 1957.

Six hundred persons cheered as Francis received his trophy at a dinner sponsored by the Oregon Sportswriters and Sportscasters Assn. One hundred persons had' been nominated for the honor. The judges then screened out all but 12 and gave the honor to francis by what appeared to be a big margin. The fleet backfield star capped his college career last season by leading OSC to a snare oi tne Pacific Coast Conference football championship. The year before he was one of the keys to Oregon State's drive to an undisputed PCC champion ship. NEW STEWARD NAMED DETROIT (UP) John P.
