Off to the finest start of his
cage career, Mitchell is an
adept playmaker and "take
charge" guy who is recognized
as the Bears' leader on the
court. His uncanniness has
triggered the Bears' fine start
this vear. On defense, his play
is the key to the success of
Shaw's pressing defenses which
have caused havoc among the
Bears' foes.
Spann credits his star guard's
play as the key to development
of his front court duo of Ivan
Donovan, who is a product,
like Mitchell, of Hughes High
School, and Robert "Foots"

Raleigh's Ligon High School.

MICHIGAN'S JIM RAYE
HERO IN DEFEAT
Readers who saw the Rose
Bowl football game New Year's
Day saw a North Carolina pro
duct almost bring his team the
national football championship
We are speaking of Jim Raye,
the second string quarterback
for Michigan State. Raye, a
1964 graduate of Fayetteville's
E E. Smith, came in the game
with his team trailing UCLA
14-0 midway the fourth quar
ter.
Raye engineered two touch
downs for the Spartans and
was called on to exercise the
call for the two point conver
sion which would have tied the
game. The 175-pound sopho
more came up with th»e key
fourth down plays to icfeep the
drives going. Showing the poise
of a veteran in passing and
running for the necessary
yards for the important first
downs, Raye brought his team
mates to within a yard or two
of a tie and possible the na
tional title.
On the attempted two point
conversion, Raye ran the op
tion play to the right. At the
last minute he pitched the ball
back to his trailing halfback
who was stopped just short of
the goal to foil the extra
point.
The coaching staff and Raye
himself has something to be
proud about. Raye wiir be re
turning next season perhaps to
inherit the starting role at
quarterback. Maybe next time
if the Spartans get within
reach of a highest national hon
or, Raye will be the man to
pull the Spartans through and
bring fame to himself, his
school and the well wishers
back in North Carolina espe
cially in Fayetteville.

Guerin Says St.
Louis Hawks
Team to Watch
Basketball is a fi v e-man
same, but Richie Guerin does
not believe it. That's why he
feels the St. Louis Hawks are
a team to watch in the Na
tional Basketball Association.
"When we lost Bob Pettit at
the end of last year we lost
a great ball player, "says
Richie, "So now we are just a
lot of guys who want to play
together. But we're going to do
it quite •well, because, despite
the lact of names, we have as
fine a 10-man team as any club
in the league."
"It's easy for people to get
the idea that professional bas
ketball is an individual game,"
