^ 1 Gary Roosevelt Picked As Present Top Prep Outfit

INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Gary Roosevelt, winner of its first four games, today topped the season's first UPI coaches’ rat-

ings.

The Panthers of coach Bo Mallard, third in last season’s final roll call, received 8 of 19 first-place votes for 122 out of a possible 190 points in games through last Saturday. But none of the early-season front-runners was named on every ballot and no less than nine quintets received first-

place votes.

The experts named 33 teams in the season’s initial popularity poll. Kokomo, with three first-place votes, trailed Roosevelt by 9 points in second place with a total of 113 and Anderson, another North Central Conference club, was third with 107 and one first-place vote. East Chicago Washington, which dumped Indianapolis Attacks from the unbeaten ranks last weekend, was fourth with 86 and Indianapolis Washington rounded out the upper bracket of the Big 10 in fifth place with 85 points, including one first-place nod. The lower bracket of the Big 10, in order, was composed of South Bend Washington. Columbus. Gary Froebel, Tipton, and Evansville Rex Mundi. Tipton received two first-place votes, the South Benders and Columbus one each. Other first-place votes went to Washington and Garrett. Six of the first 10 also made the elite just before the last state tourney in February. Besides Gary's Panthers in third place. Columbus was first. Indianapolis Washington fifth Anderson sixth, Tipton seventh, and eventual tourney runnerup Huntington eighth. Columbus and Rex Mundi also made it to the state finals last March. Huntington trailed in 20th place this time and defending state champion Lafayette. which has dropped three of its first five games, failed to

get a vote.
