KU downs Tigers, 73-56
By JEFF CRAVENS Sports Editor
a week ago, KU coach Larry Brown said he was concerned because his team hadn't won a big ball game yet. He's not worried about that anymore.
Led by a strong defensive performance, which virtually eliminated Missouri's inside offense, the Kansas Jayhawks whipped the Tigers 73-56 in front of 14,100 screening fans in Allen Field House last night.
It was the first time the Jayhawks had beaten Missouri since March 1981.
it was the first time the Jayhawks had beaten Missouri since March 1981. "We hadn't beaten a team of Missouri's caliber all year," Brown said. "That is the best we've played. The seniors played great and we needed all of them with Greg (Dreiling) in foul trouble. And the little kid played great. You need him in when the other team presses so well."
The little kid, Mark Turgeon, consistently threaded his way through the Tiger's full-court pressure. He finished with three points, five assists and four rebounds.
The crowd was a factor the entire game — right from the time Brown drew two early technical fours. Four minutes into the game, Brown was slapped with back-to-back technicals inside of a minute.
"On the first one, I just jump up and said, 'He grabbed the rim, and he hit me with one.' Brown said, "I was tired of the second one. I had to say something."
Missouri made three of four of their awarded free throws to take a 7-4 lead, but MU coach Norm Stewart thought those moments were a key factor against his team.
"I think the game was decided in the
beginning by a little pre-meditation on Larry's part," Stewart said. "I thought the game was well called, but he put so much pressure on the officials by getting the double-technical. It really got the crowd going."
After the technicals, KU came back to take a 12-11 lead on a jump shot by Kelly Knight. It was a lead the Javhawks would not relinquish.
"I don't think it affected the game," he said. "Mark Turgeon, Kelly Knight and Carl Henry all had an effect on the game."
Leading 18-15, Turgpeon and Henry helped KU score the next 11 points. Henry opened the streak with a jump shot on a pass from Turgpeon. Then the freshman point guard went to work, scoring on two spectacular three-point defense. Sandwiched in between was a three-point play by Brian Martin.
"Early in the game, I had the opportunity and I stopped and threw the ball away." Turgeon said. "I just said to myself that I was going to take it until someone stopped me. I just took it all the way."
Henry then scored on a pass from Calvin Thompson before Cecil Estes scored the first points for MU in almost 2015. But the damage was already done.
"I guess they didn't expect Turgeon to shoot, but he does that a lot in practice." Henry said. "When he plays against him, the team plays well and we get fired up."
Brown, who loathes the zone but admits it is the best defense for his team, said the defense played an important role in the victory.
"I can't think of any time where any defense has played any better for a
half," Brown said. "I thought most of the shots they took we were contesting."
The KU defense had to play much of the game without Dreiling, who got in early foul problems and played only 13 minutes.
Missouri' could get no closer than eight points in the second half KU, after shooting 38.7 percent in the first half and hitting 73.9 percent in the closing period.
Thompson, after a slow start, scored 11 of his 15 points in the second half. Henry led KU with 17 points followed by Thompson and Kelly Knight with 12.
"In the second half, coach told me to relax and play," Thompson said "I started the second half and did myself what I wanted. We had our own duty and do what was necessary to win."
Malcolm Thomas, who came in averaging more than 18 points a game, was held scoreless in the first half and finished with six points for the game. He was also averaging 11 rebounds, but he managed only six for the game.
game.
"The difference in the game was our defense and our domination of the boards." Knight said.
KU out rebounded Missouri 33-27 with Knight grabbing eight, despite playing most of the second half in foul trouble.
"It's been a long time since we beat them," Knight said. "It's not only a good feeling, but we are 2-0 in the league. If we can beat Iowa State on Saturday, we'll be in command of the league."
KU plays its first conference road game Saturday in Ames, against a Cyclone team that lost last night to the Rockets, and p-off for that game is set for 4:10 p.m.
Jayhawks Ron Kellogg, Brian Martin and Mark Turgeon surrounded Missouri center Greg Cavener during lost night's Big Eight game, which KU won. 73-56. The Jayhawks, 10-4 overall and 2-0 in the conference, used a smothering 2-3 zone defense to help shut down the Tigers, 11-4 and 0-1, enroute to KU's fifth straight victory. The last time KU had defeated the Tigers was March 1981.

Chiefs' Kenney to travel to Pro Bowl
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Bill Kenney, quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, will make the trip to the 1984 AFC-NFC Pro Bowl game, National Football League officials told the Chiefs yesterday.
Kenney last month was chosen first alternate at the quarterback position in Pro Bowl balloting by NFL players and coaches, behind starter Dan Marino of the Miami Dolphins and Dan Fouts of the San Diego Chargers.
Diego Charger:
Marino underwent arthroscopic surgery two weeks ago and has been rehabilitating in Pittsburgh. He was examined by a physician Tuesday and did not receive a full clearance to play in the game.
and did not receive a full clearance to play at the game. Three other Chiefs players were selected as starters for the AFC team in the game: wide receiver Carlos Carson, cornerback Gary Green and free safety Deron Cherry.
Kenney broke nearly every Chiefs passing record in 1983. He became the fifth quarterback in NFL history to throw for more than 4,000 yards in a season, compiling 4,348 yards while completing 346 of 603 attempts. His seven 300-yards-plus passing games, including four in a row.
Cerebral palsy victim Elizabeth Bouvia is a 26-year-old wheelchair-bound quadriaplegic who also suffers from arthritis. Because she wishes to end her life of agony in a "useless body", Ms. Bouvia has been trying for weeks to obtain a court order requiring the Riverside (California) General Hospital to give her painkillers and hygienic care while she willfully succumbs to starvation.
A TRIBUTE TO A COURAGEOUS LADY
And what were the "overtures of kindness" so contemptibly rejected by Ms. Bouria? The Riverside General Administrator's several attempts to find a nursing home that would not accede to her death wish! This funtionary, a man committed to positive thinking and .. uh . . . comfortable patients, said: "She has tried our patience to the Nth degree with her negativism".

The hospital recently began forcefeeding Ms. Bouvia after hospital officials told a judge that the fast she had begun would soon result in her death. Ms. Bouvia's assigned physician chose to dabble in the behavioral pseudoscientific realm when he recently made the following analysis of his patient's behavior. "She's enjoying this . . . (and) does not intend to die. She knows we will protect her. This is an abuse of our rights. (Because) she has rejected with a smirk . . . our outtures of kindness", this hypersensitive professional (her physician) confessed to "never (having) felt as abused in my entire professional career as I have in the past four or five days".
First-half lead helps Missouri defeat Jayhawk women in Big Eight opener
As most nursing facilities are privately-run entities which profit from remaining understaffed, the administrator's already frayed powers of restraint may not be able to withstand the result of his probably foredoomed search for a responsibly-run institution. But this country's citizenry should not be able to tolerate the spectacle of a vaillorious physician and a vaccious administrator whining for effect while the world's foremost democracy continues to demand of a helpless heroine far more than her share.

The Kansas women's basketball team was never quite able to overcome an early scoring blitz by Missouri last fall. The Tigers decided to the 11th-ranked Tigers.
"We gave them a scare," said KU head coach Marian Washington. "We hurt ourselves with turnovers down the stretch."
A missed shot and two turnovers on their next three possessions whitted two minutes off the clock and forced the Jayhawks to start fouling. Two free throws by Tiger center Mary Bruin caused the game away with 30 seconds left.
Two free throws by Barbara Adkins pulled the Jayhawks to within six points of Missouri at 68-42 with 3:38 left in the game. The Jayhawks were never able to score after that.
The Jayhawks made a valiant
comeback after falling behind 18-4 in the early minutes. Six unanswered Jayhawk points put them back in the ballgame, and the lead seasawed between eight and twelve points for the rest of the half.
Cindy Flatt gave the Jayhawks a boost going in at halftime by sinking a three-quarter-court baseball shot at the buzer to make it 44-34.
Brueggestrass's final totals of 21
At that time the Jayhawks were down by six, and they never got any closer. They were hurt by the Tigers' inside duo of 6-1 Brueggestrass and 6-1 Annette Schwander, who combined for 17 of Missouri's 27 points in the second quarter.
Missouri started the second half without their star point guard, 5-foot-5 Dee-Ee Polk, who had helped MU to an early lead with some niffy passing. He then missed with 3:27 left in the first half, and did not return until 15:32 was left in the game.
points and 12 rebounds led all players
"I wasn't pleased with the offici-
cation," she said. "I was incon-
fused."
The Jayhawks made 20 of 23 free throws in the game, but Washington said she thought the Jayhawks could have gone to the line more often.
Angie Snider followed Adkins in scoring and rebounding with 14 points on five of 20 shooting from the field and 10 rebounds.
"Number 40 (Schwander) had a lot of stickbacks follow-ups of missed shots in the second half," Washington said. "These hease did not protect well on the weakside."
Vickie Adkins led the way for Kansas with 16 points and 11 rebounds. She was forced to sit out much of the second half as Jalen Robinson eventually foaled out with 2:53 to play.
Next up for the Jayhawks are the Iowa State Cyclones in Ames Saturday afternoon.

"Athletes is a joint effort. You need a feeling of camaraderie among the athletes that comes when they see each other perform." Rose said.
Free athlete tickets was most positive action, Rose says
NCAA enacts few policies at convention
Laurence Rose, KU assistant athletic director for NCAA rules and interpretations, said yesterday that the change was the most positive action taken at last week's 78th Annual NCAA Convention in Dallas.
One change in National College Athletic Association regulations will allow KU athletes to attend all home sporting events at no charge starting
He said the details had not been worked out, but that a plan would be ready by fall. Student athletes would not be given actual tickets. Rose sand, but rather they would use a pass card, perhaps using identification cards.
He said, however, that KU's own guidelines and those of the Big Eight are similar.
Del Brinkman, faculty representative to the Big Eight and NCAA, said that Chancellor Gene A. Budig had instructed him to vote for the proposal, which was sponsored by the American Council on Education.
The most hotly contested issue at the convention was a proposal that would have given a board of college presidents veto power over the convention's rules.
In September, both Mike Gottried, KU head football coach, and Larry Brown, KU head basketball coach, said they would favor a freshman ineligibility rule. Gottried said it would help freshmen make the academic and social adjustments from high school to college more easily.
By MATT DeGALAN Staff Reporter
Despite some inaction last week at the NCAA Convention, legislation was passed that will bring changes to KU athletics.
Rose said he wasn't sure how KU would be affected because the new regulation had not set down specific fines defining "satisfactory progress."
NCAA rules previously prohibited free entry by athletes into sporting events, because the NCAA considered it an unnecessary fringe benefit. Rose
KU was the only Big Eight school to vote for the proposal, which required a two-thirds majority vote for approval. It was defeated, 328-313.
Although he did not have any figures, Rose said, he thought many KU athletes in non-revenue sports rarely attended football and basketball games. He said the cost of tickets was as possible reason.
Another new regulation will require universities to make an academic progress report on athletes to ensure they are making "satisfactory progress" toward a degree.
Brinkman, also the dean of the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, said he thought ACE and its supporters, such as Harvard University President Derek Bok, wanted to show they were in control of college athletes despite academic and recruiting problems that occur.
Neither Budig or Bok could be reached for comment.
