Bradley, the first Ivy Leaguer to make an Olympic team for many years, was one of seven collegians named to the squad. USLA's Walt Hazzard, Duke's Jeff Mullins, Joe Caldwell of Arizona State, Jim Barnes of Texas Western, Mel Counts of Oregon State and Lucius Jackson of little Pan American College joined five AAU players on the team...
Rootin' Shootin'. Why? Explains Texas Western Basketball Coach Don Haskins: "It's just a much better game than it ever used to be." The most exciting thing about the new game is that winning teams like the U.C.L.A.

So far, U.C.L.A. has knocked off such highly touted opponents as Kansas State (78-75), Michigan (98-80) and Illinois...
James has found a top performer at fullback in Bob Hazzard, but the powerful sophomore was injured early in Saturday's contest and may not see action against the Crimson. However, Phil Taylor proved a very able replacement for him, and would probably do as well again tomorrow...
