It's a matter for much thought when one considers what the reaction of the Senior B players would be if the Inter-A games were given top billing on the bi-weekly cage schedules. But if the mediocre effort of Saturday night is repeated too often', such a change could well happen. Naturally we're not pointing the finger of scorn at CCC 300 Club, who, with six players did their level best and won. Since Manson's Omegas are sailing along undefeated the onus lies on last year's champions Gordon & Andersons. Okay, says the G & A fan, "why pick on the guys while they're down. They're doing their best under 'the circumstances." Under what circumstances? No one can tell us, and have us believe, that there's not something wrong when five or six truly experienced basketball players can't click better than they have been. We have no intention of crucifying the G & A's new coach, Minor Simundsen. Simundsen nor anyone else can work miracles nor could he have passed along the magic word that would have enabled the Gordon and Anderson squad to sink at least 50 per cent more of the free shots they muffed Saturday night. We'll not undignify this column or basketball by suggesting that the players were not "giving their best" because they weren't satisfied with their coach. That leaves "condition," which covers a multitude of sins. Are the G & A boys still out of shape after four games and all the pre-season training? Or are some of the former champions, not all by any means, just not "in condition" to play when they take the floor? Let's quit kidding ourselves. Getting in shape and staying in shape, for any sport, whether it be basketball, boxing, soccer, lacrosse or hockey ' depends on ensuring that the body ir. sound of wind and limb and the head and mind clear. What players do before and after a game is strictly their own business but it can have a great effect on their performances. If they are not training as they snould then they are letting down themselves, their coach, their sponsors and most of all the public. Before some indignant readers ask us "what are you trying to do, play God?" we'll say this much. No, we're not. We're lust trying to point out that people pay good money to see basketball which they hope will be just as good. When two teams out of three are going all out, and the third, with some of the best basketball talent this town has ever seen on its roster, is lagging tc the extent it is, something is funny. But it's not funny enough to raise a laugh. We got a raking over the coals the other night from a Scotsman for using the word "shut-out" in regard to a curling victory. When we said that the object was to win the game he stoutly declared that in curling one doesn't try for shutouts. "Oftentimes," he said, "we are willing to give away a pointi I or two to win the next end." . i.u. . i ;" That of course brought a laugh of derision as anyone knows that a Scot won't give away anything let alone a point. POST SCRIPTS Sad sight Saturday night during the Inter-A game was coach Don Hartwig sobbing against the gymnasium wall as the ball on a shot by Ron t'lccone ran completely around the rim and still failed to go in . . . Dream shot of the Inter-A game was made by Art Helin who took a rebound while he was still in the air and with a flick of his hand and no wasted motion made sure it sank the second time . . . Referee Vern Ciccone who mentioned casually before game-time that he'd never had to change a decision, found himself doing just that a short time later when a foul was committed on a scorer and he first ruled that the basket didn't count . . . Sidelight of the Senior B game was Jimmy Hew in on the G & A bench exhorting the referees to impose a profanity penalty on an incensed CCC player about five minutes after a G & A player had loudly taken the Lord's name in vain.
