Running Ramblers to test Kansas counterparts
By BRUCE CARNAHAN Kansan Sports Writer
KU will get its second road test of the season Saturday night when they venture to Chicago to tangle with a tall and talented Loyola quintet. The game was
tories over St. John's of Minnesota, 92-65, and St. Thomas, 81-60. The lone blemish on its record is a 100-95 setback at the hands of Indiana.

originally scheduled as part of a Chicago Stadium double-header but has been re-slated in Loyola's Alumni Gym. The 3,000 seat crackerbox gym, in which the Ramblers are virtually unbeatable, will offer little hospitality to the Hawks. Tip off is 8 p.m.
Lovola, not known to schedule top-notch opponents during the early season, has rolled to vie-
Ramblers. The veteran coach feels that this season's squad is probably the best he has had since his national championship group.
All five Rambler starters are averaging in double figures after the first three games. Guiding the way is sophomore LaRue Martin. The 6-10 center clicked for 28 points in the Ramblers' loss to Indiana and is averaging 18 points a game.
Team captain Walter Robertson, 6-0 senior guard and last season's leading scoring with a 22.6 mark, opened the season with a 28 point showing against St. John's. "Wonderful Walt," last year's M.V.P. for Loyola, is the brother of ex-Rambler backcourt ace Pablo Robertson, currently a member of the Harlem Globetrotters.

cinnati for an N.C.A.A. crown in 1963, have long been famed for their fastbreaking, wide-open offensive displays. This year coach George Ireland has added a new dimension to his squad—Height. Loyla returns 10 veterans from a disappointing 9-14 team a year ago. With the experience and speed already installed in the Ramblers, and the addition of long awaited size, Ireland is expecting a banner year from the

South Bend, Indiana. Last year Moody's great jumping ability enabled Ireland to alternate him between center and forward. With the presence of Martin, Moody has left the post position and has taken over a much preferred forward slot. Moody paced the team in rebounds last year. Fuller, strong in all departments, averaged 16.9 last season and his fantastic passing ability made him the Rambler's top man in the assist department.
Team Rebounds: Kansas 22, Opponents 18 (not included in above).
LONGEST NIGHT GAME
Robisch and Pierre Russell are the only Jayhawks who saw much action in last year's 93-61 trouncing of the Ramblers, but Alumni gym, as Ted Owens noted, promises to be an experience that they most likely will not forget.
NEW YORK (UPI)—The longest night game in baseball history was finally won, 1-0, by the Houston Astros over the New York Mets in the 24th inning in 1968.
