ORKIN EXTERMINATING CO INC College Basketball Jumping Away From Form And Finesse (Harry Grayson Is on vacation) JIMMY NBA Staff Correspondent Dick McGulre of the New York Knickerbockers, who plays It the way. they always did, was wondering about the whole business of basketball In this era of three-figure scoreboards. "You set up a play, pick off a man clean," he was saying. "You've got a guy home free underneath.

Feed him and he scores. It took four or five good moves to get it done. But you figure It. was worth It. You scored.

"Then the other team brings the ball -down. They make one pass. The guy goes up Into the air so high you think he's looking for somebody In the mezzanine. Then he shoots and got his basket. Now you have to go back and work for yours.

Makes you wonder. I mean, those jump shots make the whole thing so easy." THIS IS A SAMPLE of what has happened to basketball. The finesse Is leaving the sport, at all levels, In a hurry. The 24-second rule in the professional game isn't doing It. Nor are the 6-10 and over pivotmen.

DABREtL FLOYD What's ruining basketball Is the jump shot. Nearly all your big scorers have it. It's impossible to stop, and the way the modern player can shoot, you wonder how he ever misses. The two top college Floyd of Furman and Robin Freeman of Ohio Jump shot artists. Freeman gets up to 46 points a game with his.

He does it simply. He just jumps into' the air, bends backwards, like a playing card and throws the ball with a flipping motion from behind his head. He scores enough with it to drive you crazy. FLOYD DOES THE- SAME thlnf. The Furman kid throws so high in the air nobody, Bill Russell of San Francisco included, would have a chance to block it.

The jump shot today is the bread and butter part of basketball. It requires no team effort. Just a guy who can jump and shoot with made-in-a-laboratory accuracy. It has driven basketball's main feature almost out of the game. That's the give-and-go play, the sport's version of the hit-and-run.

In the pros, only Philadelphia and New York practice It to any extent. Around the rest of the nation, the jump shot does it all. You leave out San Francisco, of course, because Russell makes them the exception. The Dons play their own way. IN GIVE-AND-GO baskttbill, the play's object is to work the ball until you've got two "defense men in a position where, if an offensive man cuts to the basket, they bang into each other.

The result usually is the offensive man taking a pass at full speed and laying one in with the same motion. It is pretty to watch and it made the sport big for spectators. But It's a thing of the past now. Some, like McGulre or Bob Cousy of Boston, practice it. But they have to wonder when they see how easy points can be gotten with the jump.

A guy by the name of Hank Luisettl started it all. Today, the high school kid does It with alarming ease. The same kid is a cinch not to have the first idea of what a give-and-go play is. "I wish somebody, would tell me what to do about it," McGuire says. He's not alone.

All America Darrell Floyd of Furman has made a runaway of first.

Hooked up In the scrap for second are Rod Hundley of West Virginia and Joe Holup of George Washington. Hundley has an average of 27.7 points a game- more than seven points off the pace being set by Floyd, the nation's No. 1 scorer. Floyd's average is 34 S. Holup Is right behind Hundley with 26.5.

Davidson's Hobby Cobb Is fourth with 23.6. Holup gained the most, on Floyd and Hundley the past week. He Increased Ills average more than three points a game and moved into third ahead of Cobb. Hundley is the only one of the leaders in action tonight. He and hts Virginia teammates tangle with and Mary at Norfolk, Va.

West Virginia and George Washington are deadlocked for the conference lead with 8-2 records. William and Mary is third with 6-3. In tonight's only other activity, Richmond is host to Wake Forest and seeks revenge for a licking the Deacons handed it a week ago. West Virginia pulled back into a tie with the Colonials for the league lead Saturday night by disposing of Virginia Tech (5-6 In conference play) 84-62. Hundley led all scorers with 28 points.

Bill Matthews paced Tech with 14 points. William and Mary clung to third with an 89-78 triumph over Virginia Military. Five players hit in double figures, with Dick Savage getting 19. Don Coombs of VMI got 21. connected on 49 per cent of ius floor shots.

Washington and Lee strengthened Its bid for the eighth spot in the forthcoming conference tournament by maufing The Citadel 99-67. The Generals moved ahead 11-0 and coasted the rest of the way. Dom Flora made 24 points. record is 3-6. The Citadel, with an 0-7 mark, apparently has a lock on the basement spot.

Conference teams broken even in four nonloop outings. Richmond, with Walt Lysaght dumping in 27 points mostly on Ion: set shots, routed Vlllanova 10373, and Davidson, thanks to 31 points by Ray Harding and 22 by Cobb, outlasted the College of Charleston 90-86. Furman, despite 37 points by Floyd, dropped an 84-82 overtime struggle to- St. (Philadelphia), and George Washington, with Holup being limited to 16 points, bowed to Maryland 67-46. Everybody Wants Big Chance At Robinson JACK (The Associated Press) Everybody wants to fight Sugar Ray Robinson.

That's the only way to explain the lively activity in the middleweight division since Sugar Bay knocked off Bobo Olson to win back the title. With a Robinson-Olson rematch set for Los -Angeles April 20, the other ISO-pounders are forming a long line. Ralph (Tiger) Jones, who, was the last to beat Robinson, strengthened his bid last week by knocking out rugged Tony BaJdonl. Another pack of mlddleweights Is ready to face the cameras this week. Hardy (Bazooka) Smallwood and Ray Drake, a pair of 160- pounders from Brooklyn who ion't figure in anybody's title plans'at.

the present, top the card tonight at St. Kicholas Arena in New Du Mont will telecast. Eduardo Lausse, the left-hooking Argentine, definitely ideas about a title match later In the year. He Is unbeaten In his last 32 starts with only one draw-against Mllo Savage on Jan. 6.

Lauste meets Bob Boyd, a. fast-Improving Chicago contender, In the Wednesday show trom Chicago, Gene (Cyclone) Fullmer, of West Jordan, Utah, ran up a string of 20 consecutive victories until Oil Turner outpointed him The Milwaukee Braves will play 11 exhibition games In Brftdenton, next spring. It's their homo base again. at Brooklyn last April 4. Fullmer got even by beating Turner In a remateh at Salt Lake City June 20, and they've been talking about a "rubber" match ever since.

Originally scheduled for Jan. 20 at Syracuse, N. the third Fullmer-Turner bout had to be put back because of Fullmer's Illness. Now that he Is fully recovered the big rematch has been set for Friday at Madison Square Garden. Four Bouts On Tap For Card At 8 You'll get not two, three, but four wrestling matches tonight at the Gastonia Armory.

The feature event has plenty of spice and attraction. Doc, they call him "madman," Gallagher wrestles George Becker In the feature event. That bout Is scheduled for two out of three falls with an hour time limit. No holds ore barred In this Doc's younger brother, Mike, meets. Harry "Georgia Boy" Smith In a single-fall bout.

Becker's tag team partner, Jack Wltzlg, will swap holds with Frank Taylor from Ohio In an other. The fourth match, the opener, pits Canada's Jnck Wentworth against Frenchle Roy, a teal vll- Inln. They start pinning shoulders at 8 o'clock, Wray Favorite In Big Series DWIGHT (Gazette Sports Writer) When they clash for the Gastonia junior high championship Wednesday, Arlington will have bu ne advantage over Wray. Otherwise, the Mustangs appear to have an edge and a definite Advantage is that the first of the best-of-three series will be held on the Arlington court Wednesday night. The second is slated for Wray Friday, and if a third is necessary.

It's set lor Arlington. As for player personnel, the Mustangs have more of what it takes. Record-wise, they axe setter off. Wray has copped 10 victories on the season as against but two defeats. Arlington has a 9-4 record.

That doesn't include Friday afternoon's games. Biggest reason Wray is a ooooooooooooo WRAY MUSTANGS 57 Fletcher 35 Victory Myrtle BelmoRt Frosh Bed shield Davld-Mlllard Red Shield Bfclmont Frosh Hickory Davld-Mlllard Qastonla JV's ARLINGTON BULLDOGS Bed Shield Davld-Mlllard Cramerton Victory Hickory Hall Fletcher Myrtle Hickory Belmoat Frosh Myrtle Victory Hall Fletcher Belmoiit Frosh 0,0 ooooooooo definite favorite this year is because of an injury to Marvin Beasley, Arlington's fine 'orward. Beasley, after play- part of the season. Was sidelined because of a football mee injury. As things stand now, he is definitely out for iie Wray series.

Beasley might have swayed to an even advantage. 3e was the unsung hero last year as Arlington won the iunior high title of the Spindle City from Wray. The Bulldogs have copped two straight junior high titles Jn fact. Last time Wray won was when Oscar Mason, James Galloway and the like wore out the basket in 1953-54. Arlington has just lost their coach, Russ Clark, to the Army, which could be another 'actor.

George McGlnty has over. Clyde Taylor is In his first year as Wray coach and has turned In a terrific ob. His team already holds he football championship and he Is seeking a clean sweep his season. It might be added that neither Wray or Arlington )layed a strong schedule this eason. That came about when hey could not schedule Charot-te junior high opponents the Queen City junior high outfits had a league of heir own.

The-Mustangs on the -whole are a consistent outfit. Their Mint high on the year came against the Belmont Frosh, when they hit for 72 points. That was perhaps their best- jlayed game of the season. Arlington dropped two games to Belmont while Wrny won a pair. By comparitive there, the Mustangs are way out front.

AS for individual stars, Arington may own the top player In the form of Kenneth Rhodes, a center who has a touch with the basket- HolscherTo Coach West All-Star 11 Add another honor for Franz Holscher, Ashley High School's wpular young football coach. Franz has been named along ith Bob Tale of Hendersonville the coaches for the West In eighth annual North Carona high school all-star game August in Greensboro. Rocky Mount's Cleet Cleetwood nd Kinston's Frank Mock will the East head coaches. The selection of the four oaches was made by the North Carolina Coaches Association, co- ponsor of the all-star games and coaching clinic with The Greensboro Dally News. For the initial time, three of he four received more than 100 otes, and the'fourth surpassed ast year's top man In the final otal.

Mock, the veteran coach of who directed his Red Jevlls to their first state Class 1A football title, topped the field with 133 ballots. Holscher's Green Wave Just missed copping the Western AAA xmference title by a whisker. He as named on most every ballot i the West. He drew 106 votes. Tate came In second at 95.

KEN RHODES Bulldog Threat ball. He is that team's leading scorer with 245 points for an average of a little over 18. That does not include Friday afternoon's game with David- Millard.

Taylor has high regard for two other Arlington stars, Jack York and Steve Smith. Both are potential high scorers, with York being outstanding at a guard spot. Wray has been paced in the scoring department by three boys, Don Honeyeutt, Johnny White, and Robert Ramsey. Honeyeutt and White are neck-and-nsck, both around 13 points per game. The rebounding battle will be between and Honeyeutt.

They are both about the same height, with Rhodes having the better scoring record. Everything points to a Wray celebration come Friday or Saturday. Funny things have happened in the Wray-Arllngton series however, and the favorite isn't always on the long end of the score. That's what gives Arlington hope.
