Cooz and Dolph at the Festival
"You want to talk to Cooz?" a man in a maroon
blazer said, his head sticking out of a crack of the
Boston College locker room door in the basement
at Madison Square Garden. "C'mon in."
The door opened just enough to let one person
through, going in sideways, as steam was released
through the opening and into the corridor. The
players, fresh off a de-
cisive 87-58 win over
Penn State, were talk- --,

program in his left hand as he spoke.
Beads of perspiration formed on his brow, but
he talked as cool if if he had just sat on an ice
cube. Or as if he had just scored his 30,853 rd point
in the NBA, which he did not too long ago. And
now as a coach, Bob Cousy, former Boston Celtic
immortal, was on the teaching end of the deal.
"These kids are sophisticated," he continued,
surrounded by a half-dozen pressmen. "They knew
Penn• State wasn't ,as strong as the others in the
tournament, but they also knew that this was a
team that took Syracuse into overtime. The kids

didn't know anything about any bad team, and
they played with one thing in mind: To win."
It was as though he had been rehearsing for
years. Cooz was spewing forth verbiage the likes
of which Adolph Rupp hasn't heard in years.
"We played a good second half," Cousy said,
"and the way we huoled, it took me back to my old
days."
Oh, those sweet reminiscences. It almost made
one want to run out and buy Mr. Basketball's two
books, "Basketball is my Life" and "The Last
Loud Roar."
Cousy's life has turned to coaching, where he
has been almost as successful .as he has been
modeling Jantzen sportswear, Randolph shoes,
sneakers and other sundry items. In four seasons
since 1963 he has formed two NIT tournament
teams and an NCAA regional runner-up. Before
this season he was 76-26, the Penn State victory
becoming number 82, while the subsequent Louis
ville consolation loss in the tournament was just
the third this year. There probably won't be many
more.
His 'success, of course, stems from his teaching
of the fastbreak Celtic brand of basketball, fea
turing court length presses and constant move
ment on offense and defense. The whirlwind tac
tics evidently shook up Penn State's deliberate
style of play, and as Coach John Egli said, "We
don't have the ball handlers to play any way but
deliberately. When we run with them, we're dead."
Another former NBA great made an appear
ance at the Garden for the Holiday Festival.
though not to see Cousy's charges. In fact, he chose
to be present at the Penn State- Syracuse conso
lation game (Garden officials prefer to call such a
contest the less-offensive "afternoon game") and.
for a very good reason.
You see, Dolph Schayes was a one-time hall of
famer and idol of all Syracuse National fans. He'd

State May
Recognize
'Title' Fight
PHILADELPHIA (AP)—The
Pennsylvania State Athletic
Commission will decide next
week whether It will recognize
the winner of the Joe Frazier-
Buster Mathis fight as the
world heavyweight champion.
Their 15-round bout is sched
uled for New York's new Madi
son Square Garden in early
March. New York and Massa
chusetts have declared they
will recognize the winner as the
champ.
Frank Wildman, chairman of
the Pennsylvania athletic com
mission, said yesterday he will
call for a vote by his fellow
commissioners Tu sday.
Pa. in WBA
Pennsylvania is a member of
the World Boxing Association,
now staging an elimination
tournament to pick a successor
to deposed champion Cassius
Clay.
Frazier, a Philadelphian, and
Mathis are not participating in
the tournament, and the com
mission would have to turn its
back on the WBA if it recog
nizes either of those two as
champs.
Wilman indicated he favors
recognition of the Frazier-
Mathis winner.
"The public will not accept
the tournament winner, who
ever he may be, as thp real
champion until he has met and
beaten Frazier or Mathis,"
said Wildman.
Bill Stansfield, the 6-8 center who got into the lineup
for the first time during the Holiday Festival tournament
in New York, is still in the process of getting in shape. He
suffered an arm fracture before the season began, causing
about a month's layoff.
Egli also reported that two additional players—Gregg
'Hamilton and Mike Egleston—will join the club Monday
after waiting out their academic ineligibility. Egli hopes
that Hamilton, a 6-0 guard from North East, and Egleston,
a 6-4 forward from Elkland, will give the Lions the much
needed bench strength they've been missing all year.

camp out around the 25 and 30 foot mark and
throw in two-handed set shots all evening. When
he retired and tried to go into the coaching ranks,
he went for the big time, heading a pro team
rather than a college squad like Cousy.
Schayes was put in charge of the Philadelphia
76'ers, and after he had presented the fair city
with an Eastern championship (though losing to
the Celtics in the playoffs) someone must have
discovered he had bad breath or something. After
such a successful season, he was dismissed, and
Alex Hannum was brought in to tame Wilt Cham
berlain.
Since then, Schayes has been acting head of
NBA officials, a lesser job than coaching but one
that keeps him in contact with the game. As for
his interest in Syracuse, 6-8 Dolph knows several
of the players and their, families, following the
Orangemen whenever he can. As he watched them
play the Nittany Lions, he commented on what he
saw.
"Cazzie Russell was telling me the other night
he has the\ toughest time at these baskets," Schayes
said as the floor, together in six sections over the
ice rink, buckled slightly under the weight of the
players.
He also had words of praise for the perform
ers. "That Harper has size,and speed, he's a good
passer, but he'll have to play the backcourt." He
made mental notes and put the college players
in pro situations. "Ward's playing a good game,
big and strong . .
He even took a good long look at the Lions.
"That kid Persson is a hell of a shooter," he com
mented as Jeff zipped a 25-footer. "And Daley is
a take charge guy out there."
But Schayes-only stayed for the first half. He
probably had officials to ready for that night's
Knicks game. It's not like being a coach, exactly,
but it keeps him close to the game.
Lions Flashes
Tangle in Rec
Doug Grayson, a 6-5, 200-pound forward, scored 41
points the other week against nationally-ranked North
Carolina. Tomorrow afternoon at Rec Hall, Grayson will
lead the Kent State Golden Flashes against Penn State's
basketball five.
Due to the length of student registration in Res Hall
tomorrow, the Penn State - Kent State basketball game
will begin one hour later than usual. Originally scheduled
for 2:30, the game will start at 3:30 instead.
Kent State brings a 3-5 record to University Park and
clearly counts on Grayson to provide the scoring punch.
In the North Carolina game, KSU scored 83 total points
to the Tarheels' 107. The Ohio star is averaging about 16
points per game, favoring the 18-20 foot range.
Tom Lagodich, tallest visitor at 6-6, alternates between
pivot and forward and is the only other Kent State per
former averaging double figures (10.5). Bill Bullock, at 6-3,
is the third front court man, and pivotman Tom Purvis
subs under the boards.
Larry Horner and Bruce Burden, a 'pair of• 6-1 guards,
handle backcourt duties for the Golden Flashes, while Duke
Pierce and Roger Harper will be first off the bench when
needed.
and
State opened with an 81-63 win over Cal Davis,
and then proceded to drop four in a row, to North Carolina,
Indiana State, Marshall and Duquesne. Its latest win wag
over Akron Dec. 23, by a 79-70 score. Wednesday night
KSU was upended by St. Bonaventure, 80-63.
Golden Opportunity
Tomorrow's game would seem like a golden oppor
tunity for Coach John Egli's charges to break out of their
three-game skid. Since defeating Colgate during their New
York trip early last month, the Lions have lost to Bucknell,
Boston College and Syracuse, compiling a 2-4 record.
"We're still not quick enough and our ball handling is
poor," Egli said after a practice session this week. "People
overplay. us, and we don't know what to do, so we've got a
lot of hard work ahead. However, everyone continues to
get better."
