4 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Friday, January 12, 1968 --- Scanning the Big 8 By Chip Rouse Kansan Sports Editor KANSAS 82, PORTLAND 66 The Portland Pilots fly into Lawrence this weekend for a non-conference tilt with the defending Big Eight champions. Against non-conference competition this season, coach Ted Owens' Jayhawks have posted a 6-2 record, and should have little trouble in making Portland their seventh victim. One small factor remains to be mentioned, however. Portland's only victory this season came at the expense of Oklahoma City, previously the nation's No. 8 ranked quintet. The victory came after 11 consecutive Portland defeats. With Rodger Bohnenstiehl and Vernon Vanoy back in top form, the Jayhawks will be ready for the Portland challenge. KANSAS STATE 72, IOWA STATE 64 The Wildcats are off and gunning in quest of their first conference championship since the 1963-64 season with league triumphs over Oklahoma State and Nebraska. Iowa State has been the surprise team of the conference race thus far. The Cyclones, who finished last in the recently completed Big Eight Tournament, have bounced back in the previous week to knock off tourney champion Nebraska and lose a heartbreaking one-point decision to KU on a last second free throw. Kansas State will be playing on its home floor—a place which has always meant trouble for the Cyclones in the past. NEBRASKA 78, MISSOURI 66 After two consecutive conference defeats, it's about time for Joe Cipriano's Cornhuskers to find the victory trail. The Tigers trounced a good Colorado team last week, but should find things a bit more difficult in Lincoln. If the offensive punch of Tom Baack, Tom Scantlebury and Stuart Lantz can get started for Nebraska, it could be a very dismal evening for Missouri. COLORADO 60, OKLAHOMA STATE 52 CU's Golden Buffaloes achieved the rare feat of not losing a game at home during the 1967 Big Eight campaign. The Buffs will be coming off a rather disappointing two-game road trip on which Kansas and Missouri slapped back-to-back losses on Sox Walseth's forces. Colorado and Oklahoma State have already met once this season. In that contest the Cowboys defeated the Buffalooes to capture third place in the Big Eight Tournament. However, Oklahoma State also has yet to post a victory in conference competition, placing an added interest on the Saturday clash. ////////////////////////////// "Friar's Follies" A NEW FOLK SHOW featuring Sean & Kathy The Storm Cellar Trio The Rainy Day Singers FRIAR TUCK'S 7th and New Hampshire PATRONIZE KANSAN ADVERTISERS This Sunday Begins a Five-Sunday Series: "ON BEING A REAL PERSON" A series of five sermons beginning this Sunday.

There will be a new language, perhaps quite unreligious, but liberating and saving, like the language of Jesus, so that men are horrified at it, and yet conquered by its power..." — Dietrich Bonhoeffer (If you flunk, at least you'll be awake.) Sure you've used NoDoz to help you stay awake the night before an exam. But have you ever thought of taking NoDoz to make yourself a little sharper during the exam itself? Well, maybe you should. Let's say you're one of those guys who doesn't have to cram like mad the night before. (Even so, you're probably not getting your usual amount of sleep.) And let's say the morning of the big exam, you find yourself heading for class, kind of drowsy and unwound and wondering if The Great Brain has deserted you in the night. What do you do? You panic, that's what you do. Or, if you happened to read this ad, you walk coolly over to the water cooler and wash down a couple of NoDoz, the Exam Pill. And before long you're feeling more alert and with it again. You see, NoDoz helps bring you up to your usual level of alertness, so you don't just sit there in a fog; it's got what it takes to help restore your perception, your recall, and even your ability to solve problems. In fact, NoDoz contains the strongest stimulant for your mind that you can take without a prescription. Yet it's not habit forming. Okay, but what about the guy who goofs off all term and has to jam everything in the night before. Are we saying NoDoz will keep him from flaming out? Nope. We're just saying he'll be alert and awake. As he flunks.
