Jayhawks Move to First in Big 7
Jayhawks Move to Kansas Bench Strength Pays Off In Narrow Victory Over K-State
By STAN HAMILTON
Kansan Sports Editor
Manhattan. The Jayhawks literally clawed the Wildcats to bits. That's about the size of it.
The scrappy Kansas team, behind at the first and third quarter marks Saturday night, used its bench strength to pull it through to the hard-fought 3-point, 65-62 victory over Kansas State at Manhattan, but only after the Wildcats, using a slow, deliberate offense for the first time in several seasons, had deadlocked the score 13 times, twice in the final quarter.
A pair of free tosses by K-State center Jerry Jung with two minutes to go in the game tied the score at 58-all, but then KU guard Dal Dobles dropped in a pair of charities and Bill Heitholt streaked in to notch a lay-in and Kansas led 62-58 with 1:35 to go.
State's Gene Stauffer was fouled at that juncture and he caked in on his two opportunities to bring his team within two. But then Jayhawk forward Harold Patterson came up with the ball in a scramble near the Kansas free throw circle and passed quickly to Dobbs who was standing alone under the goal. The sophomore laid it in for the eventual winning basket.

The Jayhawks were helped to the triumph by a rare phenomenon—no Kansan fouled out, and because the losers' two top point producers, Jesse Prisock and John Wilson, left the contest in the final quarter via that route. Prisock got 12, eight in the first quarter, and Wilson nine.
Born picked up three quick fouls in the first five minutes and then free throw collector. Bill Brainard came on to play the last four minutes of that period and most of the second. He forced Priskock into a pair of fouls to make his total three, and the K-State ace rode the bench the entire second quarter. He finally was banished for his fifth infraction with 5:39 to go in the game.
The mergin see-sawed throughout the opening quarter, with the score tied six times. A crip by Wilson with one second left made it 20-18, K-State, at the first quarter peak.
In the second quarter, with Prisock on the sidelines, KU, with eight men scoring, pulled off to a narrow 2-point halftime edge, 36-34. But in the third period, the coldest of the night for both clubs, the Wildcats out-hit KU 13-10 to lead 47-46 as the tip-off for the fourth came up.
Born re-centered and he, Harold Patterson, and Larry Davenport hit the first 12 Kansas points as K-State got but six. Pattison hit two free throws. Born added a jump shot. Davenport sank a pair of long one-handers, and Born hit three free throws to up KU's lead to 58-53. After three Wildcat points Jung hit his couple of free throws to send the game into its crucial last minutes.
The "wait for an opening" K-State offense produced but 36 shots, while KU fired 57 times. The Jayhawks won the game from the field, outhitting State 20-16, but at the charity line the losers scored on 19 of 40 tries. Kansas, with 36 attempts, hit 25.
Sub Bill Kohl, who got all of his seven points for K-State in the hectic last period, hit another pair of free throws with 1:05 to go, but two last-ditch tries for the tying points fell short. The game's high scorer, B. H. Born of Kansas, stopped the last shot before it left the hands
The victory moved Kansas into a tie with Nebraska at 3-0 for the Fig Seven leadership, while Kansas State now stands at 1-2 in the league and 7-5 over-all. KU has won eight of 11. The two outfits will meet here Feb. 17.

Ties Confuse IM Leagues As Play Enters Last Round
With but one round to play in Division IV of Fraternity "A" basketball, Phi Psi, ATO, and Delta Chi remain in a 3-way tie for first after sprinting to wins in intramural action Friday.
Dropping from a first place tie, Lambda Chi suffered its second setback to fall a full game behind the Division IV league leaders which each own 3-1 marks. Other encounters Friday saw victories registered by Sigma Nu in Division III of Frat "A" and by the Optimists in Division I of Independent "A".
A consistent scoring attack coupled with tight defensive play in the second half helped Phi Psi to a 45-39 decision over Lambda Chi. Holding a slim 23-21 advantage at halftime, Frank Haggard pumped through 13 points in the second half to spearhead the Phi Psi to victory.
For the game Haggard collected 21 points to walk off with scoring honors, while Max Murray and Pete Fotopolus backed him up with 10 and eight, respectively. Dave Paulding, with 12, and Dick Walt, with 12, paced the Lambda Chi attack.

After building a 21-9 halftime lead, Delta Chi survived a second half rally by Sigma Chi to escape with a 41-37 win. Punky Hoglund, who netted 10 field goals and four charity tosses for 24 points, spread his point-making efforts evenly over both halves to hold the winners in the game.
ATO 80, Alpha Pbi Alpha 22

Pro Bowl Won By East Stars
Los Angeles —(U.P.)—Paul Brown's Eastern All-Stars presented the Cleveland Brown coach with his first win over Detroit's Buddy Parker when they caught fire in the second half of a tight clash with the West last night to take the fourth annual Pro Bowl game 20-9.
Brown, who landed in the loser's bracket in his seven previous meets with the Lion mentor, sent his stellar team into the second half with a slim 3 to 2 lead yesterday to see co-captain Chuck Bednarik swipe a Bobby Layne pass and run 24 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter that gave the East a commanding 13 to 2 lead.
The giant Philadelphia center, unanimously voted the game's most valuable player, also recovere 1 a fumble that set up one of Brown's hailback Lou Groza's two field goals.
