BASKETBALL'S GREATEST STARS

Biographical highlights of 22 basketball stars are outlined in brief sketches for the spectator and player with an interest in the ""kings of the courts"". The profiles, despite their brevity, tend to emphasize personality in place of statistics, and the style, as always is rugged -- hard-hitting. Among the heroes introduced are Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry Lucas, Ed Macauley, Bob Pettit, Bill Russell, Jerry West. The market for this is definite and pre-destined.
