STATE HALL INDUCTING FOUR

Walker Gillette, a wide receiver who played for three National Football League teams in the 1970s, is one of four athletes who will be inducted into the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame on April 20.

Other inductees will be basketball standout Junius Kellogg, baseball player Willard Marshall and tennis star Harold Burrows.

Gillette, a Southampton native, played split end for the University of Richmond. He scored 132 points during his career and was a first-team All-America selection in 1969. Gillette was a first-round draft choice of the San Diego Chargers in 1970.

Burrows won the state boys' tennis championship in 1938 and 1939, then captured the junior title in 1941 and 1942. He went on to play for the University of Virginia, where he was an All-American in 1949.

Kellogg, a Portsmouth native, played five years with the Harlem Globetrotters before being paralyzed in an automobile accident.

Marshall, from Richmond, joined the New York Giants in 1942. In 10 years in the major leagues, Marshall averaged 13 home runs.
