...remained for Southern California to suffer the crudest fate of all. All the Trojans did was win-edging Arkansas 70-67 and Illinois 73-72 in the Los Angeles Basketball Classic. And what did that earn them? A berth in the finals against Lew Alcindor (TIME, Dec. 16) and his No. 1-ranked U.C.L.A. Bruins...

Both, however, admit that Lew's defense still leaves something to be desired. "He needs work," says Naulls. "But I'll tell you this-when Lew Alcindor wants to guard somebody, he can guard anybody." Duke's Bubas will attest to that: against the Blue Devils last week, Alcindor collected 16 rebounds and blocked eight enemy shots...
