Sports Editor, Los Angeles Examiner |;

Bill Schroeder, general director of the Helms Athletic ||,
Foundation, has been going througth the morgues, tones and ||
clippings again. This time, after more than six months of
research, and exchange of letters with coaches, authorities | |

nd sports writers, he comes-up with what he says is the|)
best basketball team of all time.

He also names the greatest coaches in
the. game that Doctor James Naismith in-
vented with the aid of a couple of peach
baskets. While there is no denying that
Schroeder's brace of selections are most
worthy, plenty. of basketball countries, which
feel they may! have been slighted, probably
will be heard from.

Not that we: execpt many to kick about |
the Helms’ selection of Angelo (Hank) Lui- | §
setti of Stanford as the greatest player of
all time. He rates No. 1 on the team. He was
‘recent enough for most of the present basket-

m bali followers to appreciate and accept. Hank | |

-has the high score for one game, 50, against |}

| Duquesne during Stanford's barnstorming | '

tour of 1938, and the only other man to come

close was George Glamack of the North Caro-

AL ‘SANTO lina teams of 1940 and 1941. Glamack was a

remarkable fellow. He was six feet five inches tall. But he was so

near-sighted, the Schroeder research shows, that he shot -his buckets}
by instinctive knowledge as to where the net should be. And when

it came to instinct, he had plenty. of that.. Es

The research discloses that he bagged 578 points in 28 games,

which you will admit is rather tall ee even . ‘when. -you can

see the basket.

Here's All-Time ison Selections | |

But to get to the meat of the subject, which meat is not ra-|§
tioned, here is the Helms all-time basketball team, which you may|&
accept or dissect at your leisure. a
