—and very distinguished ca-
reer in the hoop sport.
He was organizer of a pro
team called the Whirlwinds
(which included Nat Holman)
and later when Holman and
others went to the Celtics, the
Whirlwinds disbanded. Sedran
then quit as a player and started
coaching.
He handled the Brooklyn
Jewels and the St. John's Col-
lege "Wonder Team." He later
returned to professional coach-
ing when he took over a new
Whirlwind team and the Celtics
owned by the singer Kate Smith.
He moved from club to club
until he gave up the sport 15
years ago.
Murray Robinson of the New
York Journal-American talked
recently with Sedran and some
of the stories Sedran reminded
him of made it clear why he
was named to the Hall of Fame.
In 1913, for example, when
Sedran played for Utica in the
New York State League
againt Camden in a champion-
ship game, he scored 17 field
goals. Nearly every shot came
from 25 to 30 feet out. And
there was no backboard!
"I think, - Sedran told Robin-
son, "that my 17 field goals that
night would be equal to 50 field
goals by one player today, con-
sidering the height of the pres-
ent pros and the fact that they
have a backboard. My 34 points
were all scored that night be-
cause, in those days. one man
shot all the fouls for his team."
One more interesting side-
light. "Don't imagine," Sedran
said, "that in my time we didn't
think of the jump shot, the big
scoring tool of today. But it was
suicide to shoot for the basket
with your feet off the ground,
because you'd be lucky to come
down alive.
So, for self-preservation, we
had to keep our feet on terra
firma while making a shot. That
way, it was much safer to take
the belt you knew you were
going to get."
Barney Sedran played in an
era when ball-handling and
speed were important and when
size wasn't the major factor in
the game. I still think it was a
better game in those days, for I
remember that as recently as 20
years ago, the same qualities
were of prime importance, and
I was more excited when my
team won 40-35 than I am when
a team now wins 130-125.
