Kansas Stars Nab Two Spots
By KEN BRONSON
Kansan Sports Editor
Paced by a pair of high-scoring centers and flanked by a pair of hustling "small" men, five men from four schools have earned berths on the 1954 Daily Kansan All-Big Seven team.
B. H. Born, 6-9 Medicine Lodge senior, who last year won the NCAA tournament "Most Valuable Player" award, and Bob Reiter, sterling Missouri junior, edged out Burdette Haldorson of Colorado and Nebraska's Bill Johnson in the hottest battle for a first team position
In the other first team spots, selection was easier.
Allen Kelley, Kansas' other co-captain; Oklahoma's speedy Lester Lane, and Kansas State's Jesse Griffin gained the other three berths.
Kelley started off slowly but hit his peak near mid-season, not dropping off until then the season was over. The sparkplug of Kansas' clawing half-court press, the little miss, out of games, and fouling out of games but while he was in there, he provided much of the spark for the Jayhawkers' drive.
Harold Patterson, Kansas' jumping-jack; norm Stewart, Missouri's sensational sophomore, and Tom Harold, Colorado's pot-shot guard, join Johnson and Haldornd in completing the second five.
The other little man on the first team, Lane, was almost phenomenal. The high scorer in the Big Seven pre-season tournament, the Sooner midget kept up that pace through the season.
Born was up and down most of the year but he had it when it counted. Against some of the toughest opposition, the big center came through brilliantly. He ended his career at Missouri last Tuesday, hitting 25 points.
Kelley and Born are the only holdover stars from 1953. The Kansas seniors were the knitting force that gave the Jayhawkers their third straight Big Seven championship, this time having to share the honor with Colorado.
Prisock, a 6-5 senior from Em-
Reiter was another up-and-down player but he again came through in the crucial games. The 6-8 junior with the soft hook finished only five points behind Haldorson in the league's scoring race.
For the fifth man on the Daily Kansan's All-Big Seven team, the "forgotten man" was picked. Kansas State's Prisock, while setting out three games because of injuries, was terrific this year although playing at a school that remembered Jack Gardner more than it did its 1954 basketball team.

The second five is nearly as potent as the first. Having the height in Haldorson and Johnson, the rebounding and scoring in Patterson and Stewart, and the floor play of Harrold, this ball club would give the all-stars a run for the money.
poria, drew praise from everyone concerned for his all-out effort and hustle. He was also the Wildcats' leading scorer and their only dependable performer.
