Jayhawks Roll Again, 63-50; Tougher Test Looms Tonight
By NOBLE COSGROVE
Kansan Sports Writer
After a surviving a scare by the slow-down minded Oklahoma State Cowboys Saturday, the Kansas Jayhawks will continue their bid for the Big Eight championship tonight in Norman against the Oklahoma Sooners. And hopefully KU fans can watch (or listen as the case will be for most) a little easier than they could Saturday.
The Cowboys held KU to its lowest scoring effort of the season as Kansas barely
The first period found KU picking up four after foul and the basket and the points just weren't following. Dave Robisch, Roger Brown, and Bid Stullson were all in four.
ON THE OTHER hand, O-State could do little wrong and the fans that crowded Gallagher Hall were hysterical stunned and overjoyed. From the opening tip-off things went right for the Cowboys and it took the nation's fifth ranked basketball team almost
three quarters of the game to douse their flame.
Kanaan's high scoring, guard, Bud
Washburn, had one of the best showings of
the season.
would like to admit the vastly outsized Oklahomaans swept by the big men and scored the easy lay-up for points.

before he fouled out in the final period.
The surprising fact of many to many the relative ease the Cowboys enjoyed in scoring during the first half. They repeatedly worked out how to score well for the easy shot. More times than the Hawks
came Robisch, who almost entirely kept KU in the game.
Contributing also to KU's behalf was the fine defensive play of Pierre Russell and Roger Brown. Both men were strong on the boards and until Brown flouted, the
Cowboys were forced to return to shooting from the outside.
This game showed the closeness of the Big Eight teams and also the great home court advantage that is held by the host squad. One would have to agree that the competition is tough when a team that is 1-7 for the season beats a nationally ranked team that is 7-4.
Oklahoma State was just the beginning game of Kansas' Oklahoma trip. Tonight in Norman the University of Oklahoma will try to finish the job the Cowboys started.
OF THE REMAINING six games left for coach JOHN MacLead and the Sooners, two of them are at home. And Oklahoma hasn't won a Big Eight conference game on the road yet. During the entire season last year OU only won one road conference game.
However, their record of 15-6 shows that they can win at home and it is here that KU must travel to do battle. Although these two conference favorites have yet to meet this season, the 1969-70 OU squad beat the Hawks two out of three times they played.
Hawks Second at Houston

Kansan Sports Editor
Gaining only one first, the Jayhawks' 37 points was a distant second to Wisconsin's 65. Immediately behind KU came Oklahoma State's 49, then El Paso, 32; Villanova, 34; and Nebraska, 14.
Taking KU's only first place medal was shot putter Karl Salb. Defending the title in the meet he has claimed for the last two years, Salb heaved the iron ball 66 feet and 4 inch. Taking third was teammate Steve Willelm who finished with a best throw of 63.
TWO OTHER THIRD place finishes helped
in the KU point total, Jay Mason set a KU school record in the two-mile with a time of 8:35 after crossing the final line third in the race. The team also teamed third with a time of 1:34.
Freshman Tom Scavuzo usez the sprint medley with a 21.6 time in the 230, Running the track with a 24.7 time.
Mavin Foster was timed in 21.2. Freshman Mark Latz then took the baton and ran a 45.9 440 before handing off to another freshman, finishing with a 150.7 in the 800 lce of the race.
The final Jayhawk scoring came from fourth and sixth place finishes.
Kansas Sprinter Marvin Foster
Despite not qualifying, KU coach Bob Timmons expressed satisfaction with his distance medley team. Scavucci ran a 47.2 quarter, Rick Jacques an 150.7 half, Dave Smith an 368.9 in three-quarters and Doug Smith a 4:09.2 in a combined KU time of 9:50.3.
Also gaining compliments from Timmons was the mile relay team which, although not placing either, was timed in 3:12.2 Late and Foster were both timed in 47.9 for their quarter-mile parts with Scavuzo timed in 48.1 and Xerk Wale in 48.3.
"THE MILE-RELAY team could be the best ever in the Big Eight," Timmons said rapidly warning that several other conference schools are also potent in the event.
JIM NEHOUSE, a Salina nurse, claimed fourth in the half mile with a 1:50.8 clocking and junior Mike Stull finished sixth in the long jump with a leap of 23.4%.
Other than that the KU head man was not all that pleased with his relay teams and all that pleased with his support.
"It is obvious we've got some maneuvering to do with our relays," he said. "We're going to spend much of this week doing that so we can get more teams qualified for the NFAA."
... timed in 21.2 in 220 leg of sprint medley
IN THE MEANTIme, however, Timmons is concentrating his thoughts on this weekend's meet, the Central Collegiate at Eastern Michigan, and the Big Eight Pittsburgh team to be held in Kansas City Feb. 26 or 27. In addition, Timmons' coached KU team has never lost.
These three indoor meets are the last before the outdoor season begins March 27 when the sun is out.
The NCAA meet will be held March 12 and in Detroit and the Jaywawls will be seeking an interim coach.
The Jayhawks are also the current NCAA outdoor champion having tied for that honor last summer with Oregon and Brigham Young.
The Jayhawks will start the fivesome of Russell, Robisch, Brown, Stallworth and Nash against their southern foes. Unfortunately, it was announced by KU head coach Ted Owens before the start of the Oklahoma State game that it would be at least three more weeks before sophomore Randy Baldwin could make a significant 6-9 from Wichita, has been inactive for eight games because of a collapsed lung condition. The lung, however, is completely healed now.
IF THE HAWKS are tonight able to hand the Oklahoma Sooners a defeat, they will return to Lawrence with a conference record of 8-0, and begin preparation for the Missouri-Kansas battle that tips off at 8 p.m. Saturday, in a烈阵 Field House.

Colorado, Cowboys Fall to KU Tankers
By JIMHOFFMAN Kansan Sports Writer
The meet this weekend, in Stillwater, Oka. saw Kansas defeat Oklahoma State, 65-48 and Colorado, 71-33. OSU also defeated Colorado 73-31. The meet was a triangular among Kansas, Oklahoma State and Colorado as a dual between each participating team.
The Kansas Swim Team, under the coaching of Dick Reeam, has now met every other Big Eight swim team and defeated them in round-robin competition.
THE KANSAS LINE-UP was slightly tenuated to allow for the absence of Scott Schoenberg.
Drought Finally Ends for Palmer
Playing an area where being 60 and retired is beautiful, Palmer was the big attraction all week long as he plodded on one course and went back to the Hope Hope Classic. Wherever he went the crew there and to achieve his long sought victory Palmer shot a five under 67 at La Quinta, a one under 71 at Tamarisk, a six under 66 at Berrick and a 69 at Berrindua Dunes in the final two rounds.
WHEN IT WAS all over Sunday Palmer waved to an appreciative audience, collected his $28,000 winner's check, and headed to the press tent to tell how he did it.
PALM SPIRINGS, Calf. (UPI)—For bright moment at least, Arnold Palmer is the kicker.
Going 14 times without a championship, the famed and fabled golfer won the Bob Hope Dessert Classic Sunday by sinking a 25-foot birdpint on the first hole of a sudden playoff with 28-year old Ray Foyd to win the $140,000 golf tournament.
SUNDAY'S VICY GHOST gave Palmer a total of 57 triumphs on the U.S. tour since he turned pro in 1985. One no one ever won that many has to duel divisive ones for Palmer has been the PGA.
"I thought about how long it had been since I won anything," he said. "I also thought of all the chances I had this year, the playoffs lost. Maybe I psyched myself because I hit a real good putt, maybe as good as I could possibly make."
"I was willing to do anything to get a victory again," said Palmer, who ended the longest drought of his career when he won the 1948 presidential election. He had taken three times in 11 previous years.
Lost in the shuffle of the Palmer-Floyd duel was what happened to the rest of the field. Bert Vancey wound up at 14 under 346. Billy Casper, the 1970 player of the year, was at 348 and Jim Wiechers and Bob Rosbos tied at 349.
"I THOUGH I GOT off a good put on the extra hole, said Flaylo. "but I'm glad armie
Now that he finally has won a little, Palmer said he plans to let up a win. He should try to get the team back on track.
Floyd, who last won when he took the 1969 FIA title, took a check for $160,000.
On the extra hole with Floyd Sunday, Palmer stood over the ball a long time and did not react.

Tom Shaw, winner of the Crosby ane Hawaiian Open, finished down the list at 352 and defending champion Bruce Devlin was at 355.
in order to concentrate on his school work, and to allow other Kansas swimmers to swim in events in which they were not usually entered.
The Kansas scoring was led by junior Bob Wright who placed first in both the two Bob freestyle and the 200 yard breaststroke as well as the 150 yard breaststroke at the winning 400 meter Medley Relay team.
REAMON WAS PARTICLARLY happy with the performances of Bruce Bove and Steve Ingham in the 1,000 yard freestyle, Rick Heidinger in the 500 yard freestyle, Kim Bolton in the 100 yard freestyle and Phil Kidd in the 50 yard freestyle.
"We either swait well or poorly," coach Reamon said after the meet. "In each event times either improved or dropped-off. There were few in-between performances."

... drought finally ends
Kansas's next competition will be at the Southern Collegiate Invitational meet in Athens, Ga. this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Reamon used the meet in Stillwater this weekend to qualify as many swimmers as possible for the Georgia meet.

"The whole team won't travel south this week." Coach Reaman said. "I'm not planning to travel."
Pierre Russell, 6-4 KU Forward
Tom Kempil and Ray Powers are the only two KU swimmers who have so far made the cat for the national finals but Ream恩elson won it. The Skutley and Bob Wright in the meet also.
Slowly but surely, Kanaa' Big Eight opposition is dropping away like files under a
The results of this week's meet in Stillwater are as follows:
Oklahoma State appeared to have Kansas in trouble Saturday, patiently threading its way to a 24-15 lead in the first half. But the Jayhawks fought back to a 31-29 halftime lead and, when Dave Robisch scored at the start of the game, Kansas fell back into its zone defense. That allowed the Cowboys' delibration and Kansas relief off a 8:56 victory.
AFTER THE SCI in Georgia, the only meets facing the Jayhawks are the Big Eight Championships and the NCAA finals. Both will be in March.
The Jayhawks, 7-0, now lead Missouri S-2 by two games and every other team at least 14 points.
Brobish scored 22 and Pierre Russell 15 for the Jayhawks. Oklahoma State made 7 of 10 shots in the first half, but only 6 of 24 last season. Cowboys were forced to come from behind.
Missouri's hope to stay near the Jayhawks for nil till for the Tigers absorbed an 81-72 win at Nebraska. Henry Smith scored 27 points and Chuck Curea blocked Chuck Jura got 25 and Marvin Stewart 19.

Bills Second In Mo. Valley

Canfield Due To Workout This Week
The 6-9 product was sidelined Jan. 11 by a collapsed lung. But team physician Dr. Winston Anderson said Saturday Canfield's lung has been completely re-expanded for nearly three weeks now and that reconditioning could begin immediately.
Coach Bob Polk has his St. Louis Billikens in second place in the Missouri Valley Conference Basketball race, just one half game behind the Rams. But that may be as close as the Bills ever get.
The main reason is that the quirks of the schedule have Polk's surprising Bills hitting the road for four consecutive away from home games over the next two weeks before they return home March 4 to host Louisville. It may all be over by then.
KU coach Ted Wenski said Saturday prior to the KU-Oklahoma State game he did not expect Carfeld to return to action foraction on Sunday. Carfeld was averaging six points per outing.
It's double tough to win one on the road, as St. Louis proved to coach Maury John and his Drake Bulldogs in last Saturday's daytime television thriller. This Bills won that one 62 to 62 and John hasn't quit shouting about it yet.

Milwaukee, Seattle Win
By United Press International
The Milwaukee Bucks merely were coasting while the Seattle Supersonics were driving all the way in their National Conference game — Sunday—with disastrous results for their rivals.
The Bucks, runaway leaders in the Midwest. Division of the NBA, walloped the Atlanta Hawks, fact that 128-48, in Atlanta, Ga., despite the fact that Lew Acidor played only 35 minutes. The Supersonics, meanwhile, ripped the San Francisco Warriors, 146-101, with newly-acquired star Spencer Haywood-scooring 25 points.
The Bucks stormed to a 19-point lead at the end of the first period and led by 23 at the half as they scored their 51st victory in 62 games. Alcicor led both teams in scoring with 23 points and rebounded white Bob Dandridge for two Bucks. Pate Marahadvik had 15 for the Hawks.
The Sonics surged to a 16-point lead at the end of the first period, and a 20-point lead at the half and just kept pouring it on. Lee Winstefeld was second to Haywood in scoring and led by Crusis and Den Kojos added 18 each for Seattle. Nick Joles added the Warriors with 16 points.
The Baltimore Bullets defeated the Philadelphia 76ers, 113-103, the Phoenix Suns beat the Buffalo Braves, 108-97, the Boston Celtics edged the Detroit Pistons, 110-108, the Chicago Bulls downed the Cleveland Cavs, 108-83, and the Los Angeles Lakers downed the Cincinnati Royals 125-113, in Sunday's NRA games.
Earl Monroe scored 33 points for the Bullets, who led by only three points with two minutes left after having a 92-70 lead early in the fourth period. The Bullets stared off the Philadelphia rally when Monroe and Jack Harin hit a pair of free throws each sandwiched around a basket by Wes Uselen. Bill Cunningham led the 76ers with 35 points.
