HERALT AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON MONDAY, MARCH 10. IA IPkks W S All-America Cageirs TIME OUT Gambee Put On 2nd Team By MURRAY OLDERMAN NEA Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (NEA) If anybody knows a basketball player, it's a guy like Fuzzy Levanc. an Alt American himself at St. John's, a great pro, a coach in the Na tional Basketball Association and now a full time scout for the New York Knickerbockers. When fuzzy Levane says Elgin Baylor has every shot in the book and great strength, besides, you listen and nod. Fuzzy knows, be cause he's seen him. Just as he s flown up to Corvallis, Oregon to see Dave Gambee pop them for Oregon State, or down to San r ran Cisco to watch Mike Farmer. The St. Louis Hawks, too, have men like Fuzzy canvassing the country 31 of them. And so do the other professional teams. To get a bona fide All America basketball team. NEA Service and The Herald and News have gone to these men whose business it is to know the best. And these are their selections. The l'J38 NEA All America team: F Elgin Bnylor. (-6, Seattle. F Archie Dees, S-8, Indiana. C Wilt Chamberlain, 7-0, Kan as. C Guy Rodgers, 61, Temple, ti Oscar Robertson, 6-5, Clncin' nail. Experience? Baylor. Dees and Rodgers are all seniors who've been in every tight spot on a bas ketball court and know how to react. Native talent? Has there ever been a basketball player better endowed than Chamberlain, the Big Dipper of the Jayhawks, who carries a mediocre team on his tremendous, agile frnmc? Crowd appeal? Robertson, the tensational sophomore (and that's the only description you can give him) would fill any arena in the country. Oscar, Wilt and Elgin have been tossing coins all season for the national .icoring leadership, each pouring In the points at a clip of 30 or more at an outing. Joe Lapchlck calls Robertson "The greatest sophomore I've aver wen." Eddie Gottlieb drools at the prospect of Chamberlain s avail ability to his Philadelphia Warriors in '60. And Baylor may be the top choice in the pro draft this prlng. That is. if the Minneapolis Lak ers don't decide they could use Archie Dees to better advantage. Minnesota coach Ozzie Cowles called him "far superior to Don Schlundt." former Hoosier All- American.

He's the one "small" man who intrigues the pros ahead of the big fellows who infest the game today. You'll got fo see them all on the same floor, too, as guests on the Steve Allen show where they'll be presented with awards in New York on Sunday. March .10. The modern fast break game demands adequate relief, and the scouts didn't have to go iar for five others of almost equal ability Crambee was tabbed by Utah coaoli Jack Gardner as 'lone of the best prospects 1 ever saw." Farmer is a solid fundamentalist on a. solid team, well coached nnd a good shot. Connie Dlerking has exceptional speed (or a big man and clears the boards to set up ltolerlson's displays for Cincinnati. Jim Smith of little Mcubenvillc College at traded the same kind of attention that Maurice Stokes once did at St. Francis of Loretto. and for the fame reason he docs everything superlatively. frank Howard tapped last year as an All Anier can in a surprise maneuver, was niinin his barrck'hested. healthy self hauling down rebounds and scoring points for Ohio State. Uke all our All-Americans ol 195S, he's rated a cinch to make it in the NBA if he decides to play. Howard will probably sign a bonus baseball contract first.

Ufl Oregon skiers ended the three- year Idaho domination of the Northwest Ski Assn. combined junior championships here Sunday by making a clean sweep of the meet s top places. The first two places in' the jun lor expert men s and women s combined were captured by Ore gon youths. The women's list was headed by the skiing Saubert sis ters of Lakeview, Joan and Jean. Terry Skjersaa, Bend and Joe Darr, Government Camp, led the boys. Joan won the women's combined crown by .38 of a point. She edged out her sister by four tenths of a second in Sunday's downhill event. Skjersaa placed third in the downhill and second in the slalom to beat Darr by a point. The meet was the largest ever held on Mount Hood with 170 youngsters participating. Mike Buckley of Seattle won the downhill race for junior expert men. Ed Ward, McCall, Idaho, who won the junior expert men's slalom Saturday, was disqualified for the slalom. Twelve-year-old Karen Vance of Spokane, who placed first in the women's exDert slalom Saturday. was third in both the downhill event and combined standings. The Saubert sisters, Skjersaa and Darr won places on the PNSA team for the junior nationals at Winter Park, Colo., March 20-23 Conference title, each with a 12-4 record, because the Beavers lost 62-55 to Idaho Saturday and the Bears lost 64-62 to Oregon Fri day. Those were their last regu lar season games. The last-minute title dither in the league can be attributed large ly to the unpredictable Idaho Van dals, who upset both clubs in the closing weeks of the season. The , offensive-minded Vandals exploded for a come-from-behind second half victory that blunted Oregon State hopes of finishing in exclusive tirst. Just the week be- fore the Vandals rocked Cal 82-71. Idaho walked off at the half Elsewhere in the PCC L'LLA clinched third with an 89-68 vic tory over Washington and Stan ford beat Oregon 74-53.

The Beavers have limited league opponents to 864 points in 16 games while the Bears have al lowed 873 nine more.
