Jays Sizzle, Then Fizzle in 2nd Loss By KEN BRONSON Kansan Assistant Sports Editor Baton Rouge—Kansas' B. H. Born let 12,000 fans in the Louisiana State coliseum know that he was as good as the "King of the South," Bob Pettit, here Saturday night, but the Jayhawkers went down to their second straight defeat anyway, 68-63. Big 7 Teams Still in Slump Big Seven basketball teams took it on the chin again in weekend play, coming out with three victories and four losses. Loop teams now have a non-conference record of six triumphs and nine losses. The sole team with a perfect record, Iowa State, won its second of the season and its fifth in a row by beating Creighton 72-64 at Omaha. Kansas State, which has played the most games, got its second victory with an impressive 76-69 licking of Wyoming before 9,500 fans at Manhattan.

At Madison, Wis., the Wisconsin Badgers handed Missouri its first loss by 11 points, 64-53. A big third quarter, in which the Big Ten team outscored the Tigers 21-7, provided the difference. Kansas, Oklahoma, and Colorado absorbed their second losses in as many tries to stay entrenched in the cellar in non-league standings. Louisiana State tripped KU 68-63 before an all-time Southern area crowd of 12,000-plus fans. Oklahoma lost to Ohio State 73-64 at Ohio State, and the invading Oklahoma Aggies defeated Colorado 58-55. Tonight Oklahoma and Colorado will be out to cut their first victories. OU will play Wisconsin at Madison, and the Buffaloes have a return engagement against Oklahoma A&M at Boulder. South Dakota will play Nebraska at Lincoln tomorrow night. Doug Ford Wins Miami Open Title Miami, Fla.—(U.P.)A thousand-to-one shot—reminiscent of Lew Worsham's "miracle eagle" at Chicago last August—earned Doug Ford of Yonkers, N.Y., the Miami Open golf title yesterday plus the $2,000 first prize that goes along with it. Ford's spectacular eagle-three on the palm-tree lined 550-yard 15th hole gave him a 67 in yesterday's final round and a total of 272, four strokes better than the 276 posted by runnersup Sammy Snead of White Sulphus Springs, W. Va. - Born and Pettit each scored 27 points and from the opening whistle the game centered around the two 6-9 pivotmen. Born was unstoppable in the first half and left the floor at intermission holding a 14-11 lead over the Tiger ace. But Pettit came back in the second half to even things up in their red-hot duel. Outside of Pettit, it was the work of two reserves that finally brought defeat to the Kansans. Don Sebastian and Jim McNeilly came off the bench in the last quarter to score eight points between them to lift the Tigers past the Jayhawks. Again it was free throws that defeated the Kansens. The men of Coach "Phog" Allen outshot the Tigers 24-23 from the floor, but LSU held a 22-15 advantage in free throws. It was a disheartening defeat for the Jayhawkers who led the entire game except for a first minute 2-0 LSU advantage. After that the Jayhawkers went ahead and stayed there until shortly before the end of the third quarter. Pettit put LSU ahead with 30 seconds to go in that period, 54-53, when he hit a driving lay-in. After being fouled by Harold McElroy on the shot, he sank the free throw to give LSU a 55-53 lead going into the last quarter. That was all for KU. The Tigers controlled the ball almost all the fourth quarter and led all the rest of the way.
