Finals Of NCAA
COLLEGE PARK, Md. (UPI)
—The thread of a familiar
pattern is running through the
NCAA basketball champion
chips here this weekend.
When the finest collegiate
team in the land is crowned
Saturday night at Cole Field
house on the University of
Maryland campus amid the
usual hysteria, one fact is
certain —the “player of the
year” will not be on the
winning team.
The best college basketball
player of 1965 was Michigan’s
Cazzie Russell —and his
magnificent three-year, star
studded career reached a
bitter-sweet finale when he and
his Wolverine teammates lost
to Kentucky 84-77 in the
Mideast regionals of Iowa City
Saturday night.
The defeat crushed Russell’s
fond dream of someday playing
on an NCAA title team. But
Russell has one consolation in
his hour of defeat. He’s joined
a rather exclusive club — one
already including such illus
trious names as Bill Bradley,
Jerry West, Oscar Robertson
and Wilt Charberlain. They
never played on an NCAA title
team, either, although both
West and Chamberlain came
within one point of turning the
trick.
In fact, the pattern of the
NCAA tourney in recent years
6eems to faver the teams with
a balanced, well-rounded attack
instead of the clubs boasting
the one “superstar.”
The last team led by a
“player of the year” selection
to go all the way was the 1956
Ban Francisco team led by Bill
Russell, who seems to be an
exception to all the patterns.
This weekend in the NCAA
finals, the top-ranked Kentucky
team fits the definition best of
the well-balanced uint in the
tradition of the Cincinnati and
UCLA champions of recent
years.
Although lacking a first-team
All-America selection, Coach
Adolph Rupp’s team plays as a
cohesive unit with a well
disciplined attack.
Kentucky could well be the
last stand for the well-balanced
type of team in the next few
years.
For next year, UCLA Coach
Johnny Wooden will finally
unveil the sophomore wno ■

expected to dominate college
basketball the next three years
— Lew Alcindor.
Most college basketball follow
ers seemed convinced he’ll lead
the Bruins to at least one
crown the next three years —if
not three.
But then who would have
believed that players like Wilt
Chamberlain, Oscar Robertson
and Cazzie Russell would never
play on an NCAA title team?
Alcindor will be bucking a lot
of tradition.

Rejects Offer,
Wants $50,000
CINCINNATI, Ohio (UPI) —
Phil Seghi, Reds assistant
general manager, said today
that pitcher Jim Maloney, who
won 20 games and hurled two
10-inning no-hitters last year,
seeks the highest salary ever
paid a Cincinnati pitcher.
Maloney, who got $32,000 last
season, is holding out for about
$50,000.
The 25-year-old Californian
explained that if Los Angeles
pitchers Don Drysdale and
Sandy Koufax are demanding
more than $100,000, he should
be worth at least half that
much.
The club and Maloney
reached a stalemate in tele
phone negotiations over the
weekend when the Reds told
him to take their “final offer”
or forget about playing this
season. He turned it down.
While the Reds have been
working out without him at
Tampa, Fla., Maloney has been
training at Fresno, Calif.,
where he lives and operates a
used car lot with his father.

Braves Limit
Orioles To
Four Hits
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.
(UPI)—Three Atlanta pitchers,
including ace hurler Tony Clon
inger, limited the Baltimore
Orioles to only four hits Mon
day and the Braves won a
Grapefruit League contest 2-0.
Felipe Alou drove in the win
ning run with a double in the
fifth inning that broke a score
less tie. The speedy left fielder
also made a sensational over
the-shoulder catch of pitcher
Bob Darwin’s long drive in the
fifth inning that broke a score
away from the fence.
Cloninger, Dan Schneider and
Cecil Upshaw combined to shut
out the Orioles for their first
defeat in four starts this spring.
In the second inning, Oriole
second baseman Jerry Adair
received an 18-stitch cut in his
lower lip and a badly bruised
left wrist when he was hit by
a pitch from starter Cloninger.
The ball glanced off his wrist
and spun into his lip.
After receiving treatment,
Adair reported the injury was
not serious.
Upshaw held the Orioles hit
less during his three innings
and manager Bobby Bragan
said “I think that he is for
real.”
Cloninger was touched for
only one hit, a first inning
single by last year’s American
League rookie of the year Curt
Blefary.
Atlanta scored both of Its
runs in the fifth. The Braves
were scheduled to play the New
York Yankees here today.

Pressure On Tech
ATLANTA — Finishing in the
nation’s top ten puts a lot of
pressure on a coach, and that is
the spot Georgia Tech baseball
coach Jim Luck finds himself as
as the start of the 1966 sea
son grows near.
Last season’s 20-8 record net
ted the Jacket nine an eighth
place national ranking and the
1966 edition looks equally as
strong.
Returning from the 1965 team
are infield front liners, Donnie
Noggle, Randy Carroll and A1
Dickinson plus outfielders Roy
Jarrett and W. J. Blane.
Pitchers returning are Jimmy
Robinson, Harry Kafer, Larry
Zimmer, Jeff Payne, Terrell Da
vis, Jerry Priestley and Larry
Moseley. Behind the plate, Cle
ve Fowler and Larry Entrekin
are back.
Back from the 1965 squad are
just two starters, shortstop Tom
my Jackson and centerfielder
Jim Adams. Both were lost to
graduation as was pitcher Ron
Scharf.
In addition to an abundance
of returning talent. Luck has a
fine group of sophomores to
fill the shoes of the departed
trio.
