Sport* Paradr By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (IP) — Listening to the coaches who saw him in action, you have to figure today that San Fran cisco’s Bill Russell is one of the five best players in col lege baskclball history. Russel is the 6-10 jumping jack who led Frisco to its second straight NAA title and a record 55 straight victor S. He is an Olympic cinch and thereafter will ramble in probability for the professional Rochester Royals. Pfete Newell, the California coach* who will guide the /fest team in the Herald-Trfbtine Fresh Air Fund game at Square Garden on Saturday night, is one of his st boosters. Newell, actually, sounds like the San Francisco pub licity man when he begins to talk about Russell. CALLED “THE ADJUSTER” “I’ve never seen a man dominate a game like he does," , says Newell, who calls Russell “The Adjuster.” “We cal him that,” Newell grins “because of his abil ity to leap up and ‘adjust’ errant shots by his team mates. Russell ‘adjusts* them while they’re in the air so that they fill right through the basket.” The California coach tells with great delight of the game In which Slats Gill, the Oregon State coach, at tempted to use a bit of psychology on San Francisco in general and Russell in particular. “Slats had a fellow named Wade Swede Halorook who was seven feet, two inches tall,” Newell chortles. “Be fore a game with San Francisco he though J to unpress Russell and his teammates with Halbrook’s height. So he rigged it up for a cameraman to take a picture of Hal brook holding the ball as high as he could with Russell reaching up toward the ball.” REACHES FOR BALL The cameraman posed Haibrook and then called Rus sell. •. ,‘iWhat you want me to do?” asked Russell noncha •*Reach up-to the ball,” replied She cameraman. With which the fcmg-armea Russeii reached up —and put has hand on top oi the ball held as hign as possible by the sevendoot, two-inch Haibrook. Gill, .story goes, almost passed out. San jTrahcLsco rivals, Newell relates, received from Russell that is known as the “shock treatment” Coftgftes couldh’t understand, in the heat of losing effort^ against Frisco, why they’re own boys were miss ing so many east shots against the still-unbeaten Dons. EYES NOT ON HOOP “Looking at a game analytically,” Newell says of one conijtst in-which he was a mere spectator, “I discovered what it was. The boys who were missing the easy shots were so worried about Russell’s knack for blocking shots that just as they made their shot they were looking away from the basket to find out just where he was.” Russell Is a chronic Worrier and before one game he went to Frisco Coach Phil Woolpert and complained: “Coach, I think I’ve got appendicitis.” “You can’t have,” Woolpert replied. “That’s the wrong side.” But the more he complained, the better he played. And Newell’s reaction, going into the East-West game, is: “What a pleasure, jusj for once, to have him on my side.” EXHIBITION BASEBALL RESULTS By UNITED PRESS St. txwis N a.
