OUTLOOK: Florida returns only four letter winners from a 12-1 1 ball club of last year, but such statistics are deceiving. On the entire roster, the Gators have good height, depth and scoring punch. Making up for the loss of leading scorer Cliff Luyk (21.3) and guard Lou Merchant are the outstanding returnees led by Carlos Morrison plus three tall and talented soph prospects who figure to be threats to break into the starting lineup. Also due to be on hand are two fine back-court men who have laid out the required year after transferring and a junior college product6-7 Mont Highly.  Watch those Gators!
