Jayhawkers Attack Aggies Tonight
1
Kansas Aims For 7th Win
By TOM LYONS
Kansan Sports Writer
Determined not to make another fatal swing southward, seventh ranked Kansas invades Stillwater, Oklahoma, tonight to meet fourth ranked Oklahoma A&M. Game time is 8 p.m.
The Jayhawkers, although decided underdogs in this contest, have high hopes to annex their seventh straight win. In their last trip south, the Jayhawks dropped their initial two games to Tulane and LSU to leave them with a 6-2 mark going into tonight's contest.
The game, the 36th contest between the two teams, will pit outstanding centers and two of the nation's greatest coaches against each other.
B. H. Born, Kansas' 6-9 Lonesome Pine, and Bob Mattick, the Aggies' brilliant 6-11 pitil, should provide plenty of fireworks when the two big boys collide in Gallagher hall tonight. Born is currently hitchhiking in a white watch while Mattick is dropping in an average of 21.8 points per contest.
In the other match, Dr. F. C.
Allen, the winningest coach in the
country, will match wits with the
Iron Duke of the Aggies, Hank Jba.
The Aggies, who have lost only one game this year while winning 13, will have the advantage of their home confines in tonight's interstate rivalry. The Cowboys have been two times the Jayhawkers in the Gallatin maples. Last year at Stillwater, the Aggies humiliated the Jayhawkers, 79-88—the largest span ever to separate the two teams.
But the Jayhawkers, their thoughts still on last year's beating, will be out to avenge that loss. Allen Kelley and Harold Patterson, along with Born, will be starting their second game on the Stillwater floor.

This trio will be joined by Dallas Dobbs and Larry Davenport in the Kansas opening lineup. But if the going gets rough, Bill Brainard, Gary Padgett, Harold McEldry, Jerry Alberts, Jim Toft, LaVannes Squires, and Jack Woffle will be ready to take over.
Dobbs and Brainard, both sophomores, have been the surprises of the Kansas aggregation this winter. Dobbs hit 23 and Brainard 16 in the Jayhawks' last outing against Missouri Saturday.
The Aggies are expected to open with Dale Roark, Tom Fuller, Clay Carter, and Frank Bigham along with Mattick. Mattick hit 24 and Roark 13 in last year's contest at Stillwater.
The game will be carried over the KU Sports Network with Merle Harmon doing the play-by-play. KANU-FM will carry the game in this territory, going on the air at 7:55 p.m.
The Newman club monopolized the Thursday evening bowling league play this week. The Newman's, in 2nd place, upset 1st place Unamits, 4-0.

NBA Prexy Wants 'Lookout' Agency
Game Time—8 p.m. in Gallagher hall.

New York —(U.P.)— President Maurice Podloff of the National Basketball association said today he will suggest that the league hire "some investigator or agency" to keep on the lookout for anything "suspicious" in the league.
Podoloff made the disclosure in the wake of his expulsion of Jack Molinas of the Fort Wayne Pistons from the league for betting on games played by his team.
Podoloff said he will make his suggestion at the meeting of the league's board of governors which will be held in New York Jan. 20. He said he would submit to the governors "two or three plane" from which they would make their choice.
Meanwhile, Bronx District Attorney George DeLuca said he would continue investigating the entire basketball career of the 21-year-old Molinas, including both his high school days in New York and his college days at Co mbia university.
The league head said he would urge the living of "either a permanent investigator or an agency which would be immediately available to him" in the league or anything suspicious regarding any of the players."

Iba, who now holds the personal battle lead, 14-13, will have the benefit of his home floor for the battle but the wily Dr. Allen, who's cage teams have handed him more wins than any other coach, will be out to even up the score despite the handicap.
Actually, Kansas holds a narrow edge over the Aggies in the two teams all-time standings. Going into the 36th meeting between the two teams tonight, the Jayhawkers have escaped with 20 wins while the Aggies have won 15.

The Huskers won their third loop victory of the season without a loss and handed the Wildcats their first defeat in two league contests. In a balanced scoring attack, Nebraskans Willard Fagler, Bill Johnson, and Don Weber got 19, 18, and 15 points respectively, while Gene Stauffer and Jerry Jung led the losers with 23 and 13.

If Dr. Allen needs any initiative in this one, it should come from the fact that Kansas has won only two games in Gallagher hall, the Cowboys' home arena. The last time was in 1951, when the Jayhawkers escaped with a 37-27 triumph.
Another sidelight in this battle will be the winning skins that both teams lay on the line. Kansas has won six in a row after dropping its initial two games while the Aggies are presently an a 10-game, streak. The Cowboys also are riding a 25-game home winning streak.
Nebraska Upends K-State, 88-75
But the Jayhawkers, one of only five teams to hold the distinction of beating the Aggies on their home court more than once, have won two out of their last three meetings, the last one being a 61-54 thriller in the NCAA regional finals in Manhattan last March.
Lincoln, Neb.—Surprising Ne-braska kept rolling in the Big Seven basketball race by whipping Kansas State here last night 88-75, as Fred Seger netted 25 points.
And while the Jayhawkers haven't looked too sharp in early outings, the Aggies have been impressive in every game. They annexed the championship of the All-College tournament in Oklahoma City for their latest feat.
Dr. Allen, with 736 wins spread over a 44 year span, and Iba, who has won 540 contests in 25 years, are generally recognized as two of the top coaches in the field today. While Allen is first in winning ways, Iba ranks third, behind Western Kentucky's Ed Diddle.
However, the battle between the two teams doesn't come close to the feud between the two erstwhile mentors.
NU led 42-38 at halftime and 63-54 at the third quarter mark. Hunter Coach Harry Good then had his team put on a semi-stal throughout the final 10 minutes to insure the triumph.
