ACCORDING to figure* released thli week by E. Celeste
Allen, statistician of the Alamo Athletic aaiociation basket-
ball league, Rnf Wooten, of Register Publiaherg, who broke
all exiating San Antonio basketball scoring records for a
tingle game, when he oonnected for 30, against St. Philip's
junior eollege, walked off with high scoring honors of the
just ooncluded AAA eourt season, by getting a grand total
of 1HI points In eight games, in!
arernge of IS #-8 point* per game' |\|V ^ |kl
Wooten. In his grabbing tbe
high acorlng crown, garnered more
points than any player, during a
single season, since tbe season of
1(136-37. when Alex ("Poppa")
Cbandler scored 171 points In 11

TODAY Register presents its annual selections for the two
* mythical all-city basketball teams, and, in the firtt team,
believes it to be the finest "all" team of many fine teams of
the put.
It has phenomenal scoring potentialities, yet, every man
standi out almost at brilliantly in defensive play as he doet
in registering baskets.
It's a team of extraordinary ball tween victory and defeat.

like atlllty. who dart In. snatch
the ball away from the opposition,
and are tearing down the floor be-
fore their opponents know Just
what.has happened.
There Is height and weight. and
experience, and speed. All can
pass, and all can shoot from those
impossible angles and positions.
We'd like to see them play to-
gether for a season, and then we'd
like to see somebody beat tbem.
Fof the first time In tbe history
of tbe "all's," we don't think the
second team could upset the first
aggregation, although it packs
clsssy talent. Usually there has
l>een very little to choose between
the first snd second fives. We
think, this year, however, a decid-
ed advantage Is with the first ag-
gregation, although any team with

titlet, Negro fist flingers doubled their 1942 production when perienced basketeer such as Nelson

titles la three-round contests of
two minutes each.
To win the lightweight crown,
Hunter knyoed Levi Southall,
rangy and clever Kansas Citian, in
the third round. Hunter, who in

grew through the featherweight
division Into the 135-pound cate-
gory In a year, and proved a
strong and sensational boxer. In
the semi-finals, Friday night, he
dccisloned Tim Dalton, white Chi-
cagoan, In three rounds while
Southall gave a beating to Hubert
Gray, white, of Fort Worth, Texas.
Powell, national AAU champ In
1942, whipped Harry Joyce, white.
Memphis, for his title. In the

Raylor of Cedar Rapids, la., In
the third as Joyce whipped Wil-
liam McMoore of Minneapolis.
Mainly a counter puncher, Powell
showed an Impregnable defense
and good punching power.
The light heavyweight king,
Evans, sent both -his opponents to
dreamland. In the semi-finals he
disposed of John Hubbard of Mil-
waukee In the third. Hubbard
came out wltn the Intention of
touching gloves but Evans flew
into bim before he understood his
adversary's Intention. To win the
title he kayoed William Zlelke,
white, of Camp Grant, IB., in 50
seconds. Evans was favored to
take the 150-pound diadem after
trouncing the defending champion,

NEW YORK, N. Y.—How would
yon like to have a world heavy-
weight boxing champion who an-
swered to the name of "Saint
Thomas?"
That's perfectly possible, if you
believe in Father Divine, for the
noted Harlem cult leader has told
his 22-year-old follower of that
name, who hopes to wear Joe
Louis' crown, that he Just can't
miss.
Said Saint Thomas: "If I aon't
become champion, I'll be the first
fnllure Father Divine ever had
So you see I'm bound to come
through.1
Physically, he has the qualifica-
tions. Born plain Tommy Reed at
Newman, Ga., he now stands six
feet, two inches tall, and weighs
200 pounds. He is in fine shnpe
from his work as a longshoreman
through which he tries to earn
enough money to keep his aging
father, mother, and yonngcr broth-
ers off ulief rolls. Father Divine
objects to relief.
Thlf means that he does his
training at Stillman's gymnasium
"mainly In the evening wlien the
rest of the fighters have gone
home. But he hopes soon to chauge
all this.
"When I make as much money
fighting as I make on the docks,
I'll quit tbe docks," he explained.
Saint Thomas is managed by
Jack Curley, white, boxing Instruc-
tor at Htillmar.'s for lg years.
Curley thinks the world of bis
possibilities, but he has other wor-
rlei..

Leon "the Weasel" Priestley, to
date the city's No. 1 "money play-
er" of all time, is named again
to a guard position. He Is a de-
fensive player of rare abilities. No
player can surpass him in break-
ing up a dribble, stealing the ball,
and immediately turning the situa-
tion into an offensive drive for bis
own team.
He Is sn absolute terror when
It somes to streaking across the
free throw circle and hooking in

usually means two points from
any position, any angle, and under
any and all kinds of pressure.
Only once—last year, when his
working Interfered with his play-
ing and practicing—has the Weasel
failed to make the first "all" team.
Wiry, and with the heart of a lion,
he Is probsbly the No. 1 man In

Claudis Minor, of Wheatley, Is
shifted Into the pivot post. After
his discontinuing one or two quite
unnecessary things that be was
guilty of during the first part of
the season, Minor played some
of the best ball seen in the league.

Not only did American Wood
men make history repeat Itself,
but the A. W.'s did a bit of Im-
proving history, and making
little more history themselves.
Last year, when Woodmen won
the championship ot the regular
Alamo Athletic association basket-
ball league, and then went on to
win the city championship, they
were the first to ever accomplish
the feat of winning both titles.
This year, not only did they re
peat as double winners, but they
also did something that had never
before been done—t bey swept
through the ployoff series without
the loss of a single game, winning
four straight. When they won the
league title without tbe loss of a
single game, it marked the second
time in the history of the lesgue
that a team bad gone undefeated
throughout tbe regular schedule.
Tip Top Rotary did it in 1937-38
(the ace Rotarians of that day are
the ace Woodmen of today, in-
cidentally). And now. tbe Wood-
men have added Insult to Injury
by winning the playoff series with-
out a defeat! And that brought
their winning streak to 12 straight
They lost only one game, the first
of the season—an exhibition—to
those same 304th cagers who bat-
tled them so ferociously for the
city championship. This year's
Woodmen team is. undoubtedly,
the best of the many Harry May-

by the Big Red. oP John Stewart

but his defensive play was of the

Once again Gus Taylor must be

He bi everywhere . . . the most

he has been a great guard—and
seems to improve with age.
Calvin ("Pantsy") Nelson, an-
other Woodmen, Is put In the
other guard post. Nelson is one of
the cagiest and most experienced
men In AAA competition, and his
presence on the Woodmen team
improved It 25 per cent. He knew
all the tricks, himself, and he
taught his mates a tot of the finer
points that he brought with him.
