10 Thursday, March 21, 1974 University Daily Kansan Coaches Spread Praise on Eve of NCAA By GERALD EWING Kaman Sports Editor UCLA and Marquette are favored to win the semi-final games of the NCAA National Championship, but not N.C. But Norm Slonak, coach of the top-ranked North Carolina State Wolfpack, and Ted Owens don't think that psychological tricks, the hardest games with wills, can be overcome by bearing on the outcome. Shawn said yesterday that none of the teams had an advantage in any way, shape or form. "I don't think when you get into national finals play there is any advantage," Sloan said. "I think when the kids get out there, the games are of such magnitude that all of these things will be forgotten and they'll concentrate on the job at hand." Sloan made the remark during a telephone hookup with Owens and Al McGuire, coach of third-ranked Marquette. UCLA Coach John Wooden was supposed to be on the hookup but was unavailable at the time of the call. The bookmakers at the Turf Club in Reno, Nev., have made Marquette a $4½ point favorite over KU in the first game and UCLA a $3½ point favorite over North Carolina State in the second game. The bookmakers making their eighth national title in a row. A lot of people didn't expect KU to win the conference championship and the Midwest Regional, Owens said, but his team will be competitive at the tournament. "I think both our teams (Marquette and KU) are very good teams," Owski said. "I think the matchups are pretty good in terms of size. Both our teams press and both our teams run the ball." And both teams are patient, he said, when the opportunity to run with the ball is taken away. In terms of height and size, Owens said, it's pretty even. It's pretty even. The game will begin at 12:10 p.m. Lawrence time and will be televised by WDAF-TV, Kansas City, Mo. The KU team will play against Wolverine in Winston-Salem, N.C., this afternoon. While in Winston-Salem, the team will go through a one-hour workout before going on to Greensboro. The team will practice at 2 in Greenbrow at the Coliseum in Greensboro. McGaire agreed with Owens that neither team had an advantage and that both teams should have played in the same format. "I think our game with Kansas is a bush," McGuire said. "The winner will be whoever has the hot but and stays out of foul ball, then it'll get down to a white knuckle." and Illinois in a playoff for the Big Ten title and then had to face Notre Dame with only two days rest. The Michigan-Marquette game came two days later. "Everything has fallen into place this year for Marquette," McGuire said. "We generally thought Notre Dame was the best team in the league, but we won in the first round. Again, our ball club is relatively young, but I do have five high school players. We think we're adequate and that's about it." "Quite honestly our players haven't even thought about the UCLA-North Carolina State game," Owens said. "All of our teams are going to be playing for an outstanding Marquette team." The main problem KU will face is adjusting to a lot of different defenses. Marquardt has three different types of traps: a full court trap, a half court trap, and a half court zone trap. One thing in KU's flavor is that Marquette has shot only 44 per cent from the field as a result. play this year. But he knows enough about your personage, he said, to know they are a group of friends. "I've seen Marquette play and was quite impressed with them," Slaan said. "I like their defense and I like their quickness. Both of these clubs are great and they have as good a chance to win a national championship as the other two." "They're extremely quick," Owens said. "Every one of their players is quick. They're not a super shooting team but a great defensive team." He gave team and a good rebounding team." Although Owens and Slaan didn't think hUCLA had an advantage, McGuire did, and he took the lead. "I have to go along on any given day with Big Red," McGuire said. "I’m pleased that the TV lights and so on are on the UCLA-North Carolina State game. That’s where they belong. If Big Red has come to play, he'll be dynamite." NEW YORK (AP) - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar of the Milwaukee Bucks was named winner yesterday of the National Basketball Association as the league's most valuable player. Abdul-Jabbar, the 7-foot-2 center who leads the NBA in scoring and field goal totals, totaled 328 points in ballyingphotos. The Buckeyes' Buffalo Bob McAdoo was second in the veting, receiving 451 points. Bob Lanier of Detroit finished third, Boston's Dave Cowens, last year's winner, fourth and Miami's Jared Palacio, the NBA's rebounding leader, fifth. Slaan said that to beat UCLA his team would have to concentrate on its style of play and let the outcome of the game take care of itself. Abdul-Jabbar Named MVP For Third Time in 4 Years "The only thing I can say is we're going blow it up and down the court, run as fast as we can run, press as hard as we can press and jump on the boards as hard as we can jump on them," Sloan said. "If the ball is going in the hole, we'll have a chance." Slaan said his team was much better than when they lost to UCLA last December. That loss was North Carolina State's only loss of the season. "Kareem does what we ask of him," said Bucks Coach Larry Costello after being told of the balloting. "We have really been hard hit in this year and he has taken on the slack." “He has only missed one game this year and we needed him to pick up some of the scoring when Oscar Robertson and Bob Dandridge were out with injuries.” This is the third time in the last four years that Abdul-Jabbar has won the valuable player award, named for the first president of the NBA. He won in 1971, when he led the Bucks to the league championship, and again in 1972. Marquette's starting lineup will be 6-foot-9 Bo Ellis and 6-foot-5 Earl Tatum as forwards, 6-foot-1 Maurice Washington and 6-foot- 3 Maurice Washington and 6-foot-9 Lucas Lucas at center K.U.

Unlike fellowship training, this need not be used for the cost of the court. I recall that the people around me murmured approval when the sentence was read—society had scared a police. LT had been protected. read—society has scored a point, I had been protected. I also recall the victim. She murmured nothing and no smile touched her lips, she closed her eyes and was silent before, and the punishment of her assailant couldn't possibly make up for the pain she had suffered at his hands or for the medical strain she hadgueed ever since. The victim was no "college culte," nor was she a "young innocent." She was an ordained female human being with norms and dignity. Rape is no respector of woman. The above happen in 1648. Most people can't do anything to help prevent the abduction of children, but the children of Okinawa Sherei-Kan Goju Ryu Karate. In 1648 it developed a self defense course structured to meet the particularized needs of women, with the course dealing only with hand-to-hand combat. The students were armed and assaulted to a casual pass. We would be a "friend" whom you do not wish to harm. I've taught this course for years at the University of Kansas, at military bases in Europe, and at a modeling agency in Kansas City, Missouri. On April 1, 1972, a friend and I will open the Gojo Riyal Marital Arts Academy, Lawrence's first truly professionally instructed martial arts school which will offer the training for members of our community. The "Women's Self-Defense Course is not an exercise class or a play group. While the times will be pleasantly spent, its sole purpose and objective is to train you to be a self-defender." During the period prior to our opening, the course will be offered at a surprisingly low rate. The class outline is: MAX MULLER Ten classes: One hour each. Twice a week 1.
