VV YORK If you were aroiiiid last year you won't need a program to tell the jilayers on the nations top basketball teams this season. The same old faces mostly are bark tn run things and Kentucky, St. I.ouis and Holy Cross figure to be the best teams aain. " Wall Wall Jones. Alex Groza. Cliff Barker, Dale Barnstable and the incomparable Ralph Beard still are pacing Kentucky. Only Ken Collins is missing from Ihe NCAA tourney winners. Only one member D. C. Wil eutt of St. Louis U.'s tremen dous team is missing. With All America Ed Macaulcy. six foot eiirht pivot man,' and a wonder ful fast break offense, the invita tion tourney champions will be tough to beat. Holy Cross lost the injured Joe Mullaney but he will be back be fore mid-seuson. The uncanny George Kaftan, who is only six Iwo and plays like he is mounted on a pogo stick, and Bob Cousy, whose fine hands make him a mar velous shot maker, still are pac ing the CrusaderJ A rundojvn of the cage picture by sections: PACIFIC COAST In the South ern Division, Sam Barry's South ern California Trojans may be leady to assume their prewar cage supremacy. Graduation has hurt U'CLA. where all five starters are gone, and California, where nine of the 10 first ranking players have left. Stanford wilf be strong. In the north, Oregon State has Cliff Crandall and some other good play ers. Defending champ Washing ton will be tough and Oregon may get a look-in. BIG SIX A real battle is brew ing in this strong loop. Brigham Young is the defending champ but the Denver Pioneers and the Wy oming Cowboys are so tough some experts won't give BYU any better than third place. And the Utah Utes, with Vern Gardner back in condition also will cause trouble. The sensational Vince Boryla, vet eran of AAU cage competion, is Denver's big gun. SOUTHWEST Baylor's Bears would have been favored if Jackie j mm Underwood's Trip Dayton Five By 6438 Score The Underwood racers rolled over the Daylon Rubber team Tues-1 day night on the Way nesville floor : by the impressive score of C4 to 33 before a packed Tiouse. i Fnderwood's wasted little time in hitting the net and rolled up a 32 to 16 lead at halftime. During the second half Joe Cline and Har ry Jaynes continued to pace the Underwood team and their lead was never threatened. Kirkpatrick of Dayton was high scorer of the evening with a total of 17 points while Cline with 15 and Jaynes with 14 paced the winner- Bill Kanos, manager of the Un derwood team ha announced that the scheduled game against the powerful Asheville Bombers on the local court, January 22 will be j plaved as a benefit game and all 1 proceeds will go lo the March of Dimes. Two Changes Made In High School Cage Card Coach Carl Iiatclill'c announced two changes in the basketball' schedule for the Waynesville High Mountaineers On February 19 the Way nesville boys and the "B" team will journey lo Christ School to battle the Greenies and the Christ School teams will return the games here on the 22nd of February. These two games will be against Blue llidge competition and will keep alive the rivalry that exists between the two schools and also give the local fans a chance to see one ol the better preo school teams of thi- section in ail ion. Cats Make Best Pets, "Career" Man Says lMTTSBl.'KGH iUPi Cats are c 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ' up in Ihe world. Chailes A.

Uicl'.ed him' heing lluvvn ED MACAULEY St. Louis Star Robinson, Olympic squad veteran and snaik of the club, had not been injured. Hut he's through for the year. The Bears still have a good chance al the title but Texas. Southern Methodist and Arkansas are rated right around the top, too. BIG SEVEN Oklahoma will be on top at the end of the chase, if midwest experts are right. Paul i Lefty i Courty, the league's lead ing scorer last season, and Mar cus Freiberger, 6-11 center, are Ihe Sooner stars. - MISSOURI VALLEY S o m e thing strange went on here last winter when St. Louis beat about every top team in the country but lost the league championship to Oklahoma A & M. St. Louis shouldn't fail this time. The Aggies again will be strong and Bradley, newest entrant in the league, may be a factor in the chase. SOUTHEAST This is Ken tucky's territory. Tulane will challenge for the top, but it looks pretty futile. SOUTHERN Blessed with a whole squad of boys who never saw the. state before they began dumping baskets in for the team.

PENNSYLVANIA - I.a Salle, an invitation tourney entrant last season,,! has practically the same club. Larry Foust, six-nine cen ter, and little Bob McCann, play maker, are back. Muhlenberg and Westminster have good clubs. Pennsylvania may challenge for the Ivy League crown NEW YORK Of tlie clubs that meet the nation's best annually in Madison Square Garden, none Is up to previous standards, St. John's probably is the best of a sub-par lot. Little Manhattan is stronger than usual, but CCNY, NYU and LIU are surprisingly weak. Upstate squads aren't , as strong as expected, either.
