AS ST. FRANCIS DEFENDS TITLE

BY BOB HANSON

When st. Francis Prep Of
Brooklyn opens defense of its
title in the knights of Column
bus basketball tournament
against DeMatha Friday night
at Maryland'S FieldhouSe, Capt.
Tom Stith will be taking dead
aim at four records he set in last
years tourney and an all-time
mark for a New York player.
Stith, 17-year-old, 6-foot-6
senior. dazzled Washington fans
last year as he scored the most
field goals in one game, Is; most
points in one game. IS: most
field goals in the tournament.
"a, and most points in the tourn-
ament, Sc.
An inside player, Tom has the
finesse and size to keep the OPP
position ever watchful for his
next move. He can hit on almost
any kind of shot, fakes well COM
ing in and handles rebounds as
though it was a personal matter.
Has Scored 2,063 Points
Stith, an all-tournament selec-
ton and the most valuable player
in the 1856 tourney. brings an
outstanding record here with
him. His four-year total of 2,063
points has tied the New York City
schoolboy scoring record and
every point he makes here will
set a new mark. He has scored
Gal points this year, averaging
% per game. His best showing
was 51-point performance in
Madison Square Garden.
Tom has been besieged with
college offers but has not given
any indication as to his choice.
1t well could be ST. Bonaventure,
however, since his brother Sam,
another all-tourney choice here
last year, already is enrolled
there and played with the
Bonnies' freshman team this
season.
AS good as Stith is. however,
he's not a one-man show. Jim
