that we have DrfF.@. Allen, the Kansas basket ball coach, as a

guest tonight and he wants to ask him a favor.
Mehl---_What school did the old year attend, Joe? Ask him.

Knack----He-ah, wait a minute. He says he's an alumnus of the

University of Nebraska.
Mehl----What does he want from Dr. Allen?.

Knack---He says wam he wants Dr. Allen to let Nebraska win a

basket ball championship just once.

Mehl----Tell him to stay alive just tone enough for me to inoguire.
Dre Allen--or shall I say Phog---would you be willing to let
Nebreske win the Big Stix conference basket ball chempionship
this season just to gratify a dying old year?

owe oe | :
Dr. Allen-~---- Gentlemen, I g& the old year nothing. In some weys

he's been a pretty good fellow. Let him remember how we at Kanses

begged just a few favors from him dos ie the foatball season. How

many of these favors did he rank? No, I will promise him nothing.
L et him enjoy his last breath knowing that the eben sks

basketeers need expect no mercy from the Jayhawkers.

Mehl----Come to think about it, Phog, you don't expect any

mercy from them..

Dr. Alleny---Ernie, I have lived up to this point realizing that
it is foolish to expect mercy from anybody in sports.

. Knack----Well Phog you're not going to be shown any mercy on this

p rogram. Ernie and I ley awake nights thinking up mean things we

can say to our guests.
