Owens looks to fans for edge against Cowboys Jayhawk's opponent best of second division
The Big Eight postseason basketball tournament is five years old today.
Its five years have been filled with complaints from lovers of the Big Eight Holiday Tournament, which the postseason meet replaced. There have also been grips from coaches and fans, who would rather have the Big Eight's representative to the NCAA Championship tournament be the regular season champion, as it was before the postseason tourney.
ALL COMPLAINTS will be set aside by seven teams tonight, however. The only team in the Big Eight that might favor the old plan is Missouri, the regular-season champion. All others will truly get a 'a second season,' another chance to win the NCA's automatic spot for the Big Eight.
Kansas, by virtue of its second-place Big Eight during the regular season, plays Oklahoma in the playoffs.
The luck of the draw, as well as Saturday's 80-65 victory over Oklahoma State that made the difference between second and fifth place, gave the jayhawks the chance to face the Cowboys in four days. Playing back-to-back games with Oklahoma State, the Cowboys advantage, KU's Head Coach Ted Owens said.
"I HELP IN some ways." Owens said.
"Your preparation for several days has been to play Oklahoma State and you just continue that preparation."
Most of the other Big Eight coaches are probably happy that Owens gets the advantage of preparing for the same team two games in a row. Oklahoma State, the Big Eight's leader until mid-February, is the best of the second division teams.
"All of the teams that play at home in the first round would like to play anyone but Oklahoma State." Owens said. "They have that kind of respect. The other home teams would rather not play Oklahoma State because they are a dangerous team."
"I THINK MOST times people have assumed that we will win and that they will wait to see us in Kansas City," Owens said. "The best chance that we have of winning is to have student support. One of the most important reasons for our success at home is the crowd response.
Because the Cowboys are a talented team, Owens is more concerned about the attendance of tonight's game. Attendance at first-round tournament games has been low in the past, as low as 3,610 last season against Colorado. The crowd was an important factor in Saturday's game, Owens said, and despite lagging ticket sales, he hopes to see a larger crowd tonight.
beat Kansas State, Oklahoma and Iowa State on the road.
"It's vital that we have the student support for this game. OSU is a dangerous road team. They
"The reason for the home court advantage is the positive force that the crowd has for the home team. There aren't many teams that get support that we get, and we will really need it."
The Jayhawks have one thing tonight that they didn't need very badly Saturday. Six-foot-8 center Victor Mitchell is back to full strength and he has not allowed him out of the starting lineup for two games.
John Crawford, 8-6 forward, well enough that Mitchell was used for only 13 minutes Saturday and 14 minutes the game before against Nebraska. Crawford scored 13 points and had 5 rebounds againstNU and had 15 points and 12 rebounds against Oklahoma State. Crawford will start tonight, Owens said.
Paul Hansen, coach of the Cowboys, is looking at tonight's game as a chance to get into the NHL.
"VICTOR HAD A good practice yesterday and I would anticipate that he will be ready to play,"
A victory tonight would give his team a 19-8 record and possible consideration for an 18-4 large
bid to the national meet. The victory would also advance the Cowboys to Kansas City where they could win the automatic bid, but the record is more important to Hansen.
"I WANT THAT 19th win," Hansen said. "That's what is important to me. It doesn't matter if we had gotten it Saturday or Tuesday. We've got to have it for a shot at a tournament this week." He turned to February (34), it would be awfully difficult for us to get a tournament bid with an 18-9 record.
JAYHAWK NOTES: United Press International announced its All-Big Eight team last night. The first team was: Rolando Blackman, Kansas State; Andre Smith, Nebraska; Matt Clark, Oklahoma State; Joo Hunter, Colorado; and tied for the fifth spot were Kansas' senior guard Darnell Valentine and Missouri forward Raviel Frazier.
The second team was: Jack Moore, Nebraska; Oleah Kannas, State; Chuck Barrett, Oklahoma.
Honorable mentions were to Leroy Combs,
Jim Sandoval and Ike Shipovac, Missouri.

KU women's track team overcomes low ranking
By WENDY L. CULLERS Sports Writer
Nebraska won its second consecutive Big Eight women's track championship this weekend, but a third-place finish for KU did not cause any disappointment.
The Jayhawks, ranked sixth in a coaches' poll before the championships at Lincoln, Neb., won two events and scored 76 points, beating out Kansas State for third place.
THE CORNWUSKERS, coached by former KU
142 points. Oklahoma, with 182, finished second.
143 points. Florida, with 167, finished third.
"We were really happy." KU Assistant Concerta Theo Hamilton said. "That was our best job in college."
"The team put in more than 100 percent . . . they put in 120 percent. It was a total team effort."
Ten Big Eight records were set in the meet including Tudie McKnight's event-winning leap of 19.3% in the long jump. The mark qualifier which will be held March 13-14 in Pocatello, Idaho.
"I'M REAL HAPPY," McKnight said. "This jump tells me how I'll be doing in the outdoors."
The Jayhawks have qualified four athletes for the national championships. Lori Green-Jones, already qualified, finished third in the 300 at the conference championships.
Kansas finished among the top six in every event except two, including a second-place finish in the NCAA Tournament.
Gwen Pow, who qualified for the national championships earlier this season, won the 60-game hurdles with a time of 8.02, edging teammate Mike Anderson with the mark of 8.02 qualified her for the nationalals.

"They (the other coaches) were surprised that we placed third," Hamilton said. "The KU coaching staff knew that Nebraska and Oklahoma, though, we predicted that we would place third."
PEPIN SAID the Cornhuskers' victory was important because it was his first year as a head coach at Nebraska. He said the Cornhuskers had a good chance of winning the national title.

Lennon comments on many other areas in *Double Fantasy*, such as male-female relationships. It's plain to see John is saying in "Clean Up Time" and "Woman" that men don't have to be super-macho to be men and women don't have to be housemums to be feminine. This is only the tip of the Lennon-meaning iceberg. Mr Scullart would do well to listen closer to the albums he reviews in the future.
Jim Gavadie
As a reviewer, Gene Sculati is out to lunch. If all he got from Double Fantasy by John Lennon was the fact that it took Lennon 5 years to learn housekeeping, then Sculati has to let learn about his music. And if you look at what he says in *Double Fantasy*, and it all flies right over Mr. Sculati's head the reason the roughness is gone in this album is because Lennon's anger is gone. The whole idea is to show Lennon living the peaceful, loving life which he for so long preached about when he died. But with a plastic, Ono Band-style album

All Hollywood is waiting (with assorted attitudes) to see whether Francis Ford Coppola's Zootope Studios will come or remain open, and whether his currently-inproduction film, One from the Heart, will be completed. Coppola is in serious financial trouble but he can come up with a million or two. All this less than a year after Hollywood General Studios had run down Hollywood General Studios at press time his studio employees had agreed to take cuts in salary, but this was a temporary measure.
