Sophomores Star In Kansas Victory
By STAN HAMILTON
Kansan Sports Editor
The usual reliables of the Kansas cage team had to take a back seat to the substitutes Saturday night as Kansas swamped Missouri 86-69 in a Big Seven conference game before a jam-packed SRO crowd in Hoch auditorium.
Then Brainard and Dobbs went into their 2-man act to pull KU off to a commanding margin and the victory. They had to because Missouri got its biggest total in that quarter also—25-thanks largely to 11 points by substitute Bill Holst, who took over for Med Park when the junior forward fouled out with 9:15 left in the game.
It was sophomore guard Dal Dobbs and sub center Bill Brainard who carried the Jayhawks past the Tigers in the free-scoring second half. Dobbs, who tied with Tiger venter Bob Reiter for scoring honors with 23, got five field goals and a pair of free throws, and Brainard added two fielders and eight free tosses in the fourth quarter as KU posted its highest scoring quarter of the season—30 points.
Holst got hot and tossed in three straight field goals as the fourth quarter was but two minutes old to pull his team to within only 11 of Kansas, 52-63. But then Dobbs and Brainard, who had two streaks of eight and 16 points in which no other Kansan scored, upped the score beyond Mizzou's reach
The Jayhawks, although starters B. H. Born and Al Kelley left the contest in the third quarter via puits, led the visitors by 12, 56-44, as the third period ended.
Kansas was in little trouble after Park hit a free throw and field goal to open the contest. A layup by Born and a long one-hander by Larry Davenport put the Jayhawks ahead to stay and at the first quarter KU led 21-12. At the half it was 39-26.
Born sparked the first half showing with good defending and added 11 points, while hook-shooting Reiter was the only Missourian who could hit. He got 12 in the first 20 minutes, eight of them on long arching hooks. Harold Patterson and Davenport got eight and seven for KU to aid Born.
The visitors pushed a point closer in the third quarter as Kansas, which now stands 5-2 for the season, hit its lowest ebb and got hut 17. Missouri was the closest it got, 44-54, with seconds remaining in the third, but Harold McElroy dropped in a crip as the horn sounded and KU led by 12 to set the stage for the performances of Dobbs and Brainard.
Kansas got only three more field goals than did Missouri, but won the game at the free throw line, hitting 36 to the visitor. 25. In the previous clash between the two intra-state rivals, Kansas won 69-67 in the semi-final game of the Kansas City pre-season journey. In that encounter, too, KU won at the free throw line, being outstored by four from the field.

H. I. (Fritz) Crisler of Michigan, chairman of the committee, said all 10 members of the committee were present and planned to hold two meetings today to sift through the many questionnaires sent in by coaches from all over the country.
Sarasota, Fla.—(U.P.) The football rules committee of the National Collegiate Athletic association opened a 3-day meeting today to "hash over requests and suggestions" concerning college football's much-talked about "one-platoon" rule.
RulesMeeting Starts Today
Lou Little of Columbia, chairman of the Football Coaches association rules committee, disclosed that he would present only one request to the NCAA rules committee—that the limited substitution rule be modified to permit a player to leave and reenter the game once each period. Little explained that this would permit a coach to check with a star player in a critical part of a game.
The fourth annual pro bowl game will be played between all-star teams of the National Football league's Eastern and Western divisions Sunday at Los Angeles.
Molinas Given NBA Discharge
New York—(U.P.)-President Maurie Podoloff of the National Basketball association said today that the suspension of Jack Molinas for gambling was "an isolated case" and that the notorious college "point-shaving" scandal would not be duplicated in the pro sport.
Molinas, 21-year-old rookie forward of the Ft. Wayne Pistons, was suspended indefinitely for betting on games played by his team this season. The former all-time Columbia university star admitted betting with a New York contact after Podoloff received a tip from sports editor Ike Gellis of the New York Post.
Pointing out that it was the first time in the league's 8-year history that "any suspicion has been cast on us". Podoloff said Molinas was the only league player involved and that "the case is closed as far as I'm concerned."
"I never bet on my team to lose and never tried to influence the outcome of a game," the 6-6 star said. "At present I have no plans, I'll stay here a while and see what happens."
The chunky NBA president said Molinas could appeal the suspension "within a reasonable time" but doubted he would. In Ft. Wayne, a disconsoled Molina said he had not yet made up his mind and insisted "while with the Pistons I always did my best."
Ft Wayne police, who assisted Podoloff and Ft. Wayne President Fred Zollner in obtaining Molina's written confession, said no criminal action was contemplated but the NBA president said he would turn over the name of the player's contact to New York police.
Ft. Wayne Coach Paul Birch disclosed, however, he became suspicious over "things Molinas was doing at games."
