...alltime college scoring record (1,209 points) set by Furman's Frank Selvy in 1954. Pete's lowest score was 30 points against Alabama; his highest was 58 against Mississippi State. One night last week against Georgia, he rattled off 42 points, including two last-second foul shots that gave L.S.U. a 79-76 victory. A few nights later, he dropped in 52 as L.S.U. trounced Tulane 100 to 91. Not that Pete is a ball hog. He is enough of a team player to lead the squad in both assists (61) and rebounds...

Dale Dover led the freshmen with 16 points...

...point lead over the Detroit Pistons, "so the pressure wouldn't be so great." When No. 24 quickly swished an eight-foot jump shot, the crowd went wild-and kept on cheering, even though Bradley got off some amateurish passes and showed obvious rustiness at the foul line, making only two of six free throws. Next game, against the St. Louis Hawks, Bill looked sharper, sinking eight straight baskets. Then he blew everything in the final seconds with a clumsy jump shot that the Hawks recovered for a score themselves; that error cost the Knicks an overtime and eventually...

...plays and engulf the backboards. But presumably on the theory that the less he scored, the better Philadelphia fared, Wilt hardly went for the basket at all. In his first 16 games, he averaged only 15 points. Against the Warriors last month he scored exactly one point-on a foul shot-and did not so much as attempt a field goal in the entire game...
