Name that player!

"Big Mo" does everything like a champ. He is the top man in the rebound department, having set the N.F.L. record last season, with 1256 grabs. He's the organizer of the Royals' fast break, is a great passer and can pop the ball in with his fine jump shot from the rim of the circle.



Dick is a fine all around athlete. In the spring and summer, he pitches for the Rochester Red Wings and last year posted a good 12-9 mark. On the court he is a sensational defensive operator and scores with classy set shots. In college, Dick had over 17 points per game.



The "Big O" was the overwhelming selection as the NBA's Rookie of the Year for 1960-61. He was even more brilliant in his first year with the Royals than he had been as a three-time college Player of the Year and All-American with the University of Cincinnati. Quickly establishing himself as one of the gate attractions of the NBA, Oscar became the first rookie guard to score more than 2,000 points. He finished fourth in scoring with 2,165 points and was the leader in assists with 690.

Norm Van Lier
Norm was one of St. Francis' finest players. In his junior and senior years he racked up a total of 573 assists. In all he scored 1,410 points in three years for an 18.8 points per game average along with grabbing off 769 rebounds. Acquired by the Royals from the Bulls in a pre 1969-70 season trade, Norm immediately made the deal look good when he scored 14 points in 22 minutes of the opening game of the season and played like a veteran.
