KU Romps to Victory Over Sluggish LSU
By TOM LYONS
Kansan Sports Editor
Sophomore-laden Kansas smashed a sluggish Louisiana State university squad last night, 83-58, to extend its victory mark to 30 games in Hoch auditorium.
Dallas Dobbs, the only full-fledged KU starter from last year's team, led the Jayhawk scoring in the team's season opener with 18 points.
The LSU Tigers held their only lead of the game after three minutes of play in the first quarter 8-6, but KU tied the score on two free throws by Gene Elstun and then went ahead for keeps after Dobbs dropped in two more charitics.
Guard Norm Magee of LSU then hit a free-throw to make the score 10-9 before the Kansas scoring dam broke. The Jayhawks deluged the helpless Tigers by scoring 10 consecutive points pulling the game permanently out of reach of the visitors.
Maurice King, sophomore forward, accounted for six of these points on two field goals and two free throws. Dobbs and Lew Johnson also added field goals to the scoring spree.
In the second quarter Kansas added 24 points to hold a 44-21 half-time lead. During this quarter the Jays' play was reminiscent of last year's harassing full-press. Kansas outscored LSU 24-11 in the last 10 minutes of the half.
LSU outscored Kansas 10-2 in the first three minutes of the third quarter and it looked like the Tigers might be staging a comeback. But Kansas killed this final threat by coming back with six quick points in one minute and ten seconds. Dobbs, Elstun, and King all added field goals to give the Kansans a 21-point lead of 52-31.
Despite the victory, Kansas only made 36 per cent of its shots. LSU on the other hand, made only 18 per cent.
It was the second defeat in a row for the Southeastern conference squad, as it lost Saturday night to Kentucky, 72-56.
Reminishe In the last quarter of the game, Coach Phog Allen beginning his 38th year here, cleared the benches and allowed everyone on the team a chance to score.
The KU starting lineup, which included King and Elstun, at forwards, Dobbs and John Parker, at guards, and Johnson at center, worked well on the backboards to give the Jayhawks adequate control. The outside shooting of Dobbs, Elstun, Chris Divich, and Gary Padgett gave KU an effective scoring punch.
Majors Expected To Reject TV Pleas
New York—(U.P.)-The m a j o r leagues are expected to slam the door in the face of the minor leagues today, flatly rejecting the "little fellows" plea for restrictions on radio and television.
The minors, holding their annual meeting in Houston, Texas, last week, passed 11 amendments to the major-minor league agreement—among them one for bidding the majors from authorizing either radio broadcasts or telecasts of big league games into minor-league territories.
LaSalle Ranked No. 1 In United Press Poll
New York — (U.P.) LaSalle, defending NCAA champion, received 28 of a possible 35 first-place votes today to top the first 1954-55 weekly college basketball ratings of the United Press board of coaches.

Tigers Defeat Indiana 64-61
By UNITED PRESS
Missouri's defensive - minded Tigers scored the first major upset of the college basketball season — a 64-61 triumph over Indiana last night on the Hoosiers' home court.
Indiana, currently ranked fifth in the nation by the United Press board of coaches and an easy winner of its only previous game, seemed on the way to the expected victory as it took a 35-32 halftime lead and increased it to 53-47 midway in the second half.
But there the Hoosiers ran smack into a roadblock thrown up by Tiger Coach Sparky Staleup—who learned such shemaniagnans from Hank Iba, the Oklahoma Aggies' famed tutor of defense, when Iba coached at Northwest Missouri. The Hoosiers were kept outside, and their outside shots missed. Indiana had only five second-half baskets. Missouri went on a scoring spree to take the lead and never lost it.
While Indiana flopped, three other highly-ranged teams—second-ranked Iowa, third-ranked Duquesne, and 13th-ranked Utah—came through with expected triumphs.
Iowa racked up its third victory in easy fashion, 84-61, over Nebraska. Gaining revenge for an 81-70 defeat by Nebraska last season, the Hawkeyes took a 43-27 halftime lead and constated home to spoil Nebraska's home debut under new Coach Gerry Bush.

Votes Pile Up On Fieldhouse
By STAN HAMILTON
Prominent persons continue to add their endorsements to the Kansas drive to name the nearly completed $23 million fieldhouse in honor of Phog Allen, currently in his next-to-last year as KU basketball coach, at the present time.

Among the latest endorsers of the Kansan campaign is Mrs. Michael Getto Jr., of Lawrence, vice president of the KU Alumni association. Another who added support was Dick Piskoty, football end coach.
Four radio men yesterday contacted the Kansas to add their "votes." They are Max Falkenstien, program manager of WREN of Topeka; Larry Ray, sports director of WHB of Kansas City, Mo.; Gerry Barker, sales manager of WREN, and Arden Booth, manager of KLWN of Lawrence.
Dana Leibengood, Lawrence United Press correspondent, and six staff members of the Garden City Daily Telegram also wrote in vesterday.
With the total number of endorsements of the Kansan proposal now over the 400 total, the ratio or naming the structure in Allen's honor stands at barely more than 10 to 1.
Twenty-nine persons favored naming it Allen-Naismith fieldhouse to honor Dr. James Naismith, basketball inventor, who last week was honored by having his name attached to the street passing in front of the fieldhouse, and nine advocated merely Naismith fieldhouse.
Duquesne opened its season with an easy 72-52 conquest of Carnegie Tech and got set for its first major showing in the Steel Bowl tournament Friday and Saturday.
Utah, rated as the title favorite in the Skyline conference, broke its field house scoring record in walloping Hawaii university. 109-67, as Art Bunte sank 20 points.
