Original Toronto Star caption: The miniature basketball expertly twirled by 21-year-old Robby Benson isn't just a gimmick to promote actor's new movie One On One, opening tomorrow at the Uptown. Benson really hoped to make it in professional ball and he put all his dreams and frustrations into a script that became the movie about a school kid and basketball.
