Three of the four (all but Southern Californias Rudometkin) were listedeon the majority of the nation best-fiv- e teams. McGill is leading the nationjt scorers with 37 points average for his seven gamesrFoley of Holy Cross ts second with 32.8 and Dischinger of Purdue is third with 29. ' best Way down In 44th place is Jerry Lucas of Ohio State, the guy who lsconsldered the finest of them all and has had that distinction the past two years heading for it again this year. Lucas, more a team man than most of the pivoteers Is 16 points a game back of McGill. j John Rudometkin of Southern California isnt even listed in the top 46 scorers. It's McGill's Big Chance With this much background it will be Interesting to see just how our Bill McGill stacks up this year in this ' particular tournament. As McGill goes at this time so will he go for most of selections this year. the - an Improved basketball player this year. And maybe with fills he might have got over his tournament jitters.
