Leslie will employ a fast- break offense, mixincr it up with about four patte;'ns. "We'll press on defense most of the time," the rookie coach asserted. The Pioneers should learn a lot from Leslie. He can s t i 11 practice what he J)n>aches. It'll seem strange to him not to be out there on the court when U1e horn sounds for jump ball in USD's first i:-ame of th e season next Tuesday night at PhibTraPac.

"We'll have pretty good balance between speed and .l!eight," the star of the Pio- neers during the' 1956-59 seasons admitted yesterday. Leslie played AAU basket- ball for 12 years before join- ing the Pioneers to qualify him as probably tile most seasoned college cager ever to lace on a gym shoe. The 5-9 former guard real- izes the importance of t h e l?ig man in today's g a me and that's why he's anxious for February to roll around. Dave Hinds, a 6-8 transfer from University of San Fran- cisco, won't be eligible to play with the Pioneers until then. He enro!Jed this fall. Hinds is a former Mi8Sion Bay High pivotman. . Until Hinds is eligible, the pivot spot probably will be sharc>d by Bill SchammC'I 6-G sophomore transfer frorr: W c> be r Junior College in Utah. and llrike O'Connors 6-d, from Aquinas High i,; San Ilernardino.
