Russell Eyes Olympics After West Scores 74-62 Victory
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UP)—Big Bill Russell of San Francisco, a hero all over again in the East-West Shrine All-Star game, said today "There isn't enough money to keep me from trying for the Olympics."
Russell, who sparked the West to a 74-62 win in last night's game, meant that money from the pro ranks wouldn't lure him away from being an amateur for the games at Melbourne this November.
The 6-foot 10-inch all-American was named unanimously as the outstanding player of the game. He was high point man with 18 points, and as usual his big arms cut down scoring from the opponents. Once again he played with K. C. Jones, his all-American teammate, for an almost unbeatable duo for Coach Floyd Stahl's West All-Stars. Jones was ineligible to participate last week when San Francisco won the NCAA championship.
Russell seored the game's first basket and sat out the last minutes while his replacement, 7-foot Don Boldeuck of Houston, hit 10 straight points for the West to insure the win.
The West, ahead 38-32 at the half,
soon widened it to 14 points. The closest
the East got in the second half was six points at 50-44.
In 1854, four new champions were crowned in the boxing world, middleweight, welter weight, light-weight, and bantamweight.

Detroit Will Leave MVC
The University of Detroit has announced that it will officially withdraw from the Missouri Valley Conference as of June 30, 1957, listing "geographical dislocation of the conference and financial problems as its reasons for withdrawal.
However, the university expressed hopes of regaining "conference status" in the near future. A statement issued by school officials said it "has initiated certain positive steps to the Association of colleges and universities who should band together for athletic purposes."
Detroit has been a member of the MVC since 1949, and in that time it won the football title once, in 1949, and shared it with Oklahoma A&M and Wichita in 1953 and 1955.

Outfielder Dale Long of Pittsburgh led the Pirates to a 16 to 9 win over Milwaukee Monday as he hit a 400-foot double, 415-foot triple, and a 385-foot homer.
