In picking these teams, consider
..io consideration has been given the
Judgment of the other coaches of the
.ro conferences, and their choices
.oro collected and compiled before
he final selections were made.
In the Coast conference, Durno of
oregon is the unanimous choice of
n the coaches for the first forward
nostion. He is small, but makes up
tor this handicap with his speed and
.ever lodging and dribbling. He
makes long shots as well as short
onos from any angle on the floor be-
sides converting a high percentage Of
sis free throws. This is his third
year on the all-Coast team.
The second forward choice must go
IN Fighter of Stanford. Although he
can not come up to Durno in clever
ness. he has been a big factor i'll the
strength of the Stanford team
through his ability to locate the bas-
ket He is large and rangy and has
the knack of breaking through his
guards and scoring when anywhere
near the basket. RICHTER was an
other unanimous choice of the con-
ference coaches. This is his second
year on the all-Coast team.
For the center position, first
choice must be accorded to Sielk of
Washington. Although he has been
member of the Sun Dodger squad
| for several years, he did not reach
his stride until this season. He is an
exceptionally large man, standing
over six feet six, which gives him "A
decided advantage over the other
centers in the conference, enabling
him to get the tipoff consistently. He
i is an excellent shot, especially from
close under the basket and with the
forwards feeding the ball to him, he
scores consistently despite the closest
guarding.
Mills of Stanford deserves mention
at the center position, with his
weight and height in addition to his
scoring skill. However, his work
Slumped somewhat in midseason.
At guard, the first call must go to
Eggleston of California. He is a
brilliant and aggressive player, and
is especially strong on long shots. He
is a fast man, a good dodger, and a
clever dribbler, and is on the ball at
all times. He uses good judgment in
breaking up opponents plays and is
hard to score on. This is his second
year on the all-Coast team.
The second choice at guard goes
to Adams of Stanford, although this
Is his first year on the Cardinal
Team. He is an exceptionally large
and heavy man, but is remarkably
last and shifty on his feet. Stan
lords opponents found him a hard
nan to break through. Adams, as
defensive guard, and Eggleston, as
offensive guard, make a combination
mat would be hard to beat anywhere.
Bryan of Washington deserves
mention as defensive guard. He
was handicapped throughout the sea-
'Vn with a badly sprained knee that
required a heavy iron guard. This
slowed him up considerably. At that,
ne gives Adams a close run for the
position.
