KANSAS
Hoping to remain in contention for the Big Seven basketball crown, the Kansas Jayhawkers travel to Norman tonight to play the Oklahoma Sooners. Game time is 7:35 p.m.
Kansas will have some incentive aside from a third-place position. It will be the 1000th game of Dr. Allen's 46-year career. His teams at Kansas, Baker, Haskell, and Warrensburg Teachers have won 769 against 230 defeats.
Kansas, 4-3 in the Big Seven, is fast adjusting to the loss of Dallas Dobbs, who was lost at the semester due to scholastic ineligibility. Coach Phog Allen will start his fourth different lineup in as many games since the loss of Dobbs, Ron Johnston, the dependable fifth man of the Kansas team, will get his first starting assignment against the Sooners.
Oklahoma's main threats are Joe King and LeRoy Bacher. Both are among the top ten scorers in the league. King is averaging 19.8 points a game and Bacher 14.0.
The Sooners have yet to win their first league game, but have shown vast improvement since their 65-77 loss to Kansas last month. Although handicapped by the loss of several key players, the Sooners have been near victory in their last three games. Nebraska was forced to win in an overtime at Norman Monday night.
The Jayhawkers own a streak of seven consecutive victories over Oklahoma. Tonight's game is an important one for Kansas. It can move past Colorado into third place if KU wins and Colorado loses Saturday to Missouri.
Correction
Thursday's Kansan stated that Wilt Chamberlain won the broad jump in a freshman postal meet. He didn't win that event, but did take time out long enough from his freshman basketball duties to win the high jump and place second in the shot put.
KU Swimmers Top Cats 47-37
The University of Kansas swimming team won its second straight victory of the season over the Kansas State Wildcats at Manhattan Thursday, 47-37. The victory was the third in four starts for the Javhawkers.
KU again was paced by Coach Chuck Edwards, who took first place in the 60-yard and 100-yard free style races.
The big scoorer for the Wildcats was Don Matsuoha, winner of the 220-yard free style with a time of 2.28.5 and the 440-yard free style in 5.29.1. He also was a member of the winning 400-yard free style relay.

College All-Stars Will Vie For Olympic Basketball Spots
A select group of 14 senior college all-stars, instead of the NCAA championship basketball team, will vie for a U.S. Olympic berth this year because of the date the games are being played.
A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg, athletic director at the University and head of the Olympic Basketball Committee, said today the switch was made because the Olympic Games at Melbourne will be held in November and December.
Seven members of the NCAA
champion KU Jayhawkers and seven members of the AAU champion Peoria Caterpillars represented the U.S. in the Olympics at Helsinki, Finland, in 1952 and won the title from Russia.
Kansas began its baseball series with Kansas State, Missouri, and Nebraska in 1900.
