First Dav
Sale Sayers, the new assistant athletic director at the University of Kansas, began his job Monday morning in his office located in the Allen Annex, Sayers, a
former Kansas All-American and All-Pro running back with the Chicago Bears, spent his first day getting acquainted with the various athletic personnel and receiving numerous phone calls from well-known coaches said his first day was "very hectic."
The Kansas State Wildcats circled at least a tie for the Big Eight basketball crown Monday night by trowing the hapless Oklahoma State Cowboys at
the K-State victory, coupled with Oklahoma's win over second place Colorado Monday night, gave the Wildcats at worst a share of the championship. The Wildcats now own a 10-2 conference mark and a 20-4 overall mark.
Colorado, playing at Norman, was virtually eliminated from the conference race. The Buffaloes now have a 7-4 conference mark.
The Wildcats, shooting with deadly accuracy, built a lead of 15-2 early in the contest and the Cowboys could not recover. They scored a goal from the field in defeating the Pokes.
The Sooners boosted their conference record to 6-6 and still remain in fourth place.
K-State Blasts 'Pokes, Clinches Tie for First
Oklahoma shot a blistering 85 per cent from the charity strip, hitting on 28 of 33 free throws. The Sooners could manage only 37 per cent from the field. The Buffaloes finished with a 42 per cent field goal total and hit on eight of 14 free throws.
Scott Wedman, Gilbert and Jerry Wright tied for game scoring honors with 20 points each. Gilbert sank 14 of his points in the second half, scoring 15 points in the second half of play.
Missouri will tie Colorado for second

'Hawks Battle Powerful Missouri
Unfortunately for the University of Kansas Jayhawks, the Missouri Tigers, were nationally ranked in the top 10 teams earlier in the season, seem to have regained their early-season composure and desperately need a victory here tonight.
If the Tigers win their remaining league contests, they could receive a bid to the Cup.
Tipoff for tonight's clash will be at 7:35.
The preliminary junior varsity game with
Wilson will be at 7:35.
Jayhawk Coach Ted Owens said Monday that the game would be an important one for
"Missouri will certainly be up for this game," Owens said. "Their win over K-12 is going to be a big deal."
Missouri defeated first-place K-State, 80-
66, last Tucson at Alabama, John Brown,
the Tiger's possible All-American candidate,
scored 20 points for Missouri even though he sat out more than half of the contest because of foul trouble.
"The K-State game was one of the best games, we've played in our new field hockey team."
Norm Stewart, coach of the Tigers, said the Tigers played with more poise and confidence than they had since early December.
The Jayhawks will go into the game with back-to-back losses. The 'Hawks left a close game to Nebraska over the weekend and gave a decision to Colorado last Tuesday.
Earlier this season at Columbia, KU took the Tigers into overtime before loss, 75-21. However, the Tigers have not won at KU since 1969—last year a 50-point outburst by Bud Stallworth led the 'Hawks to a 93-80 victory over the Tigers.
"We will need as good as we had against K-State to beat KU at Lawrence,"
The Jayhawks will have a problem in
choosing the starting offense, the 6-2
Boston and forcing Al Eberhart.
"We'll stick basically to our man-to-man defense," Owens said. "We won't try anything new to stop Brown and Eberhard."
The Jayhawks will need a strong effort on the front line to contain the Missouri foul.
Both Brown and Eberhard are averaging in double figures. Brown owns a 19.9 average and Eberhard has been scoring at a 17.1 pace. Both players are good rebounders—Brown has grabbed more than 10 rebounds a game this season.
However, Owens plans to start both Rick Suttle and Danny Knight against Missouri. Owens said that he felt the sophomore pair had some back and give a strong performance.
Suttle, who owns a 17.2 scoring average,
scoreed only four points against Nebraska.
Knight finished the game with nine points
and 13 rebounds.
Wooden Predicts UCLA Will Win 7th Straight Title
K tom Vivoit and Dale Greenlee will start at the guard positions for the Jayhawks. Greenlee pumped in 16 points in the second half, but Tom Vivoit added 14 points in the losing effort
"UCLA is my pick."
That's not Jimmy the Greek talking. It's Johnny Wooden, the supercoach whose Bruins have won 68 in a row and who had the most straight NCAA basketball championship.
Freshman Nino Simul will start at the other forward spot for KU. The 6-5 Saimun competed in his first varsity contest for KU in Columbia earlier this season.
New 23-4 for the season, UCLA waits as the National Collegiate Athletic Association assembles another group of challengers to play the annual beat-the-giant game.
Ton Gaughan, a former offensive guard on the University of Kansas football team, was sentenced Monday for a drug violation and reckless driving.
St. Louis is the site of the NCAA semifinals on March 24 and the finals on March 26. The NIT runs from March 17 through the finals on March 25.
The National Invitation Tournament also eagerly awaits the NCAA selections since the Madison Square Garden event picks up the left overs.
Long Beach State is a fixture in the top five, but must contend with the Bruins in the West Regional, where it was wiped out the past two years.
The reckless driving charge stemmed from an accident Dec. 8, four miles west of Lawrence on U.S. 40. Witnesses testified in the trial that Guahad had pulled out to pass in a no-passing zone and had struck an oncoming car as it came over a hill.
Douglas County Court Judge Mike Elwell pronounced a sentence of 90 days in jail and a $350 fine. Gaughan was released on a $750 appeal bond.
North Carolina State, 23-0, running second to UCLA in the Associated Press poll for most of the season, is blacklisted from the NCAA playoffs due to recruiting violations.
Football Veteran Given Sentence
Gaughan was taken to Lawrence
Memorial Hospital where a nurse found a drug in his wallet. An analysis indicated it was amphetamine, commonly called MDA.
That leaves Minnesota of the Big Ten Conference and independent Marquette with the warmest hopes of shooting down the Bruins.
Technically, UCLA isn't yet qualified to defend its NCAA title, but that should be taken care of when they meet California Friday night. The Bruins are 11-0 in the Pacific Eight Conference and can eliminate both with victory No. 69 against the Bean.
With N.C. State ineligible, either North Carolina or Maryland are favored to emerge from the Atlantic Coast's chain of coastal states with a bid while the loser goes to the NIT.
The Tigers are 6-4 in conference play and are overall. KU is 4-6 in the league and 8-4 over.
Memphis State will represent the Missouri Valley Conference and Miami of Ohio at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships.
Tennessee's lead in the Southeastern Conference is anything but solid since the Vols, 12:2, play their final four games on the road. Kentucky, Vanderbilt and Alabama will face teams with the champ ticketed for the NCAA and also-rans possibilities for the NIT.
San Francisco and Santa Clara, both 10-2,
are in a fight for the West Coast Athletic
League. The Bay Area has its own Western
Athletic, it is a scrape between New
Mexico, Brigham Young, Arizona and
Oklahoma.
Long Beach State, 22-2, has locked up its NCAA spot champion of the Pacific Coast Conference.
Pennsylvania is leading the Ivy League's race for an NCAA spot since Princeton lost back-to-back games last week. The Tigers would be welcomed by the NIT.
Minnesota controls the Big Ten with an 8-2 record. If the Gophers keep rolling and make it to the NCAA, Purdue and Indiana are likely grabse for the NTP.
Like the ACC, the Southern Conference decides its NCAA representative with a tournament. Furman and Davidson are the class teams in that conference.
Nine at-large berths will go to independents, with Marquette, 22.2,
Providence, 20.4; Syracuse, 20.4;
Houston, 20.8; Houston, 20.8; western Louisiana, 22.2, the probables.
Kansas State, 9-2, seems headed to the NCAA from the Big Eight.

place in the standings if the Tigers defeat the Jayhawks tonight in Lawrence. The Jayhawks must win in order to keep alive their hopes of finishing in the top division.
Missouri, with an 18-4 overall record, will be in good position for an NTI bid if it wins a key qualifier.
