Good Season Seen By Maurice King
"If we play as well as we can, and hustle, we will be right up in the top division this year and will do much better than we did last year," was the prediction of Maurice King, KU's hustling guard.
King believes the team will look good against Northwestern University Monday night because the Wildcats are not used to KU's type of game and as a result will probably be surprised.
King recently returned to the team after a death in his family. Graduated from R. T. Coles, a vocational high school in Kansas City, he plans to major in physical education. After college, he will spend time in the service and then come back to play basketball or do some teaching and coaching.
"KU's basketball team is much stronger this year than it was last year. The over-all material is about the same, but hustle and experience makes this year's team much stronger," said King.
The 6-foot 1-inch junior played guard in high school, but was shifted to forward last year by the KU coaching staff. However, King is back at his favorite guard position this year, where he hopes to earn a position in the starting leap.
When asked about the layoff which forced him to miss three days and six practices, King feels the layoff hurt him, but that he will be ready to go for the opening game Monday night.
