Oklahoma State Defeats Crippled, Slumping KU
George Unseld. starring at forward for KU for the first time this year, scored half the Jayhawkers' points against Oklahoma State at Stillwater last night.
Eut Unseld's efforts were of no avail. The Aggies, taking advantage of three disabled KU starters and a near-perfect night of free throw shooting, defeated KU, 64-48 in the conference game.
Usually starting players, KU's Harry Gibson, Al Correll and Dave Schichtle never played last night.
Gibson, senior forward, is bothered by an injured back. Correll was suffering from a flu attack. But, the biggest ailment was suffered by Schichtle Saturday against Oklahoma. Tripped up early in the game, Schichtle suffered a broken finger and could be out of action as long as five weeks.
The Cowboys had 35-24 halftime
THE JAYHAWKS, who now have lost eight of their last nine games, fell behind early in last night's game, 12-11, and never came close from that point on.
lead, hitting 17 of 17 free throw efforts while the Jayhawks couldn't keep the ball nor find free throw range. Unseld scored 16 of KU's first half points.
WITH 47 seconds left, KU was still ahead, 61-57. Aided by missed KU free throws and stray passes, the Sooners made it 61-all at the end of the regulation period.
Walt Wesley, 6-11 sophomore, who started at center for the first time in his collegiate career, scored only seven points.
THE JAYHAWKS, who started the season with four straight victories, now have a 6-7 record for the season. The Cowboys have won nine games, losing only to Regis, Colorado State and Kansas State, the last loss coming in the finals of the Big Eight pre-season tournament.
The Jayhawks lost to Oklahoma at Norman Saturday in the conference opener. KU, rallying back from a nine-point deficit, held a 60-55 lead over the Sooners with only minutes to play in the game.

Finley Inks Louisville Contract; Other Owners Have Next Move
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — (UPI) — Charles O. Finley waved a legal contract with the state of Kentucky in the face of the American League club owners today and in effect defied them to keep him from moving his Kansas City Athletics to Louisville for the next two seasons.
Finley, Gov. Edward T. Breathitt and other state officials signed the contract in the governor's office at Frankfort yesterday, binding the colorful club owner to move his team from Kansas City into Louisville's state-owned fairgrounds stadium for the 1964 and 1965 seasons
and to play as the Kentucky Athletics.
rintery, however, posed the league a tough question by signing the contract.
The grey-haired Athletics owner argued, "We are not even at liberty now to discuss a lease with the Kansas City government. We have a contract with Kentucky."
basket that put the game into overtime, scored the deciding basket in the overtime period.
In effect, Finley was saying to the rest of the league, either play me in Louisville or don't play me—and if you don't play me, you'll have to pay me.
Last night's loss marked the second one suffered by KU against Oklahoma State this season. The Cowboys beat KU, 65-58, in the semi-finals of the pre-season tourney.
