When it became know i that the ad.rue? was made with virtually the same squad, plus a pair of freshmen, many realized that Marshall T. Emery, the Bison coach,' had ac.sieved unusual success as a teacher of the sport. As a result, last week, the Bison boss received a letter from the National Association of Basketball Coaches of the United States, with the follow ing words: “Coach Marshall Emery has been selected Coach Bill Russell Among Entries In Lc Golf Classic In June MILWAUKEE - Bill Russell, who led the Boston Celtics to 13 National Basketball Associa tion titles in 15 years, wall be among the celebrities playing in the Vince Lombardi Me morial Golf Classic on June 25. The announcement was made recently by Mr. and Mrs. Bart Starr, co-chairman for the benefit tournament which is to be held at North Hills Coun try Club in nearby Menomonee Falls. Russell, who developed an a vid interest in golf during his years as the outstanding center In pro basketball, actually join ed an association of left-hand ed golfers in the Boston area.* As a 6 foot 10 inch defensive specialist, Russell dominated the NBA during a 12-year span In much the same that Lom bardi ruled the National Foot ball League in the 1960’5. He was named to the NBA all-star team every year from 1958 to 1969. Russeil retired in 1969 after three successful years as player-coach of the Celtics. An All-American during his undergraduate days at Universi ty of San Francisco, Russell was voted most valuable player in the NBA five times from 1956 to 1969. In all but two years during that span, he never fin ished lower than fourth in the MVP balloting by his fellow’ players. Russell was voted sportsman of the year by Sports Illustrat ed in 1968. He was also a un animous choice for the NBA’s Silver Anniversary team.

C. -Spring practice has not produced any surprises to the S. C. State football staff, but it has con firmed something that Coach Oree Banks thought all along: the Bulldogs will be stronger and better next football season. “Our strong points far out weigh the weak points; to me this means we should be a much better club than before. The veteran Bulldog coach is quick to point out that “we have been scrimmaging more than in the past because we are further ahead than at any time before. The nucleus of the offense will be provided by Willie Aldridge and David Fair two Columbia, S. C. natives who have caught Banks’ eye.

It was a signal honor, of course, because neither CIAA or the metro sports media of the National Capital seemed to realized how brilliant the Bison boss had been during most of The campaign. The Bison five average about 6-3 per man. It found itself consistently matched against bigger men. Emery stressed defense -- forcing the bigger men to move out and, thereby, dimi n i s h undei -the-basket pressures.
