1957. First team was Jerry Lucas, Terry Bethel, Tom Mescherey, Al Butler and Tony Jackson
To letter you must make your school's varsity basketball team.
It wasn't a school. It was a YMCA in Massachusetts.
I remember that Bill Walton was the center and John Williamson was a guard on that All America team. There may have been a kid from Texas on that team from Houston Wheatley HS. That's the best I can do.
The movie was "Linda Lovelace for President" and the parade took place down Jayhawk Blvd. in the middle of the KU campus. I was on the University Daily Kansan (school paper) at the time and we had a field day with the stories. I think it was Spring 1975 when they shot it; hilarious ... thanks for the time capsule of memories.
