Beach Trophy To Tice; Varsity Given Watches
Approximately 300 persons, including the KU football squad and coaching staff, who were honored guests, sports writers, club members, and Bill Meek, K-State football coach also attended the affair at the Lawrence Community building.
The awarding of the Ormand Beach trophy to Orbon Tice and wrist watches to 56 members of the varsity squad and the student manager, Frank Holefelder, highlighted the annual football banquet given by the Lawrence Downtown QuarterLack club Wednesday night.
The trophy was presented to Tice by A. C. "Dutch" Lonborg, KU's director of athletics. Tice was selected by the team to receive the award, which goes annually to the most outstanding senior Kansas football player.
The trophy is in memory of Or-
Kansas To Face Tough Opposition Against Trojans
The Kansas Jayhawkers probably will be facing their toughest opposition of the season when they take to the hardwoods against Southern California at Hoch auditorium Saturday night.
The Trojans are currently holding a record of five victories, including one over Oklahoma A&M, and three defeats, counting Wednesday night's 58-47 Aggie win. They are currently on an extended road trip which will take them to the Dixie Classic tournament at Raleigh, N. C., Dec. 27, 28 and 29th.
The Trojans won their first four games this season with 53-45 and 72-44 victories over Santa Barbara and San Diego State and a 65-39 trouncing of Los Angeles State. They also downed the San Francisco Dons, the team that dropped Kansas State from the beaten ranks, 50-43.
Utah handed Southern California two defeats, however, on a two-night stand, losing 44-63 and 53-64.
Coach Forrest Twogood is coaching his second varsity squad at USC after taking over the reins following the death of Sam Barry, former head coach.
Although the Trojans lost their two star guards-Co-captains Bob Kolf and Tom Riach-from the 1951 co-champions of the southern division of the Pacific Coast conference, Coach Twogood has a team experienced at all positions as nine lettermen are on the soud.
Bob Boyd, 6-feet, 6-inch, 220-pound center, was the team's top scorer last season with 248 points. He can be counted on to give KU's Clyde Lovellette a big battle under the backbards.
Boyd has two capable replacements, Jerry Pease, 6-feet 6-inches and Al Lamont, 6-feet 5-inches.
mand Beach, termed by Lonborg as "one of the greatest linebackers and all-around players KU has ever had." Beach was killed in an explosion in 1939 and the award was established by his wife.
Wade Stinson received the trophy last year and Bud French was the recipient in 1949.
This was the first year that watches have been presented by the Quarterback club since 1947 when they were given to the "Orange Bowl team."
The selection of Charlie Hoag and Oliver Spencer as next season's co-captains was announced by Head Coach J. V. Sikes at the banquet. They were elected by the team.
Laurence "Moon" Mullins, director of athletics at Kansas State, addressed the gathering and related many of his interesting coaching experiences. He amused the audience continually, especially when referring to his first coaching post as backfield mentor at KU in 1931. He played fullback on Knute Rocke's Notre Dame teams in 1929 and 1930
Mullins made light of the University of Missouri's plan of stressing the use of athletes only within home states and commented jokingly on that school's policy of publishing athletic scholarship lists.
He also added that de-emphasiz- ing football was nothing new to him.
"After my three years as coach at Loyola of the South in New Orleans, they not only abandoned football but they tore down the stadium," he humorously admitted.
"Players must know the tradition of their school and try to contribute to it," Mullins said. "Every player must try to make the school a little better by helping each other and by keeping others from becoming discouraged and quitting."
The K-State official also proposed that all college presidents meet to agree upon the purpose of an athletic program and then initiate a code with high ideals and standards. This would, he believes, help sports and the American public.
"Football Highlights of 1951," a film showing the high points of the KU football season was shown for the first time.

Jayhawker 'B' Team Nudges Olathe Naval Air Five 64-62
The Kansas "B" team gambled—and won 64-62 in a basketball thriller against the Olathe Naval Air Station played in Hoch auditorium before 27 fans Wednesday night.
Maintaining a five to 10 lead for 35 of the 40 minutes of play, the junior Jayhawks watched helplessly as the visitors suddenly caught fire and tied it all up with 40 seconds remaining in the game.
Then, after Olathe had taken a time-out to regroup forces, the frog cagers gained possession of the ball and proceeded to hang on to it until the last two or three seconds.
At that point, Larry Davenport passed off to Allen Kelley and set up a screen while the younger brother of varsity playing Dean Kelley coolly arched a long shot that swished through as the gun went off ending the game.
Coach Phog Allen immediately nicknamed Kelley "Old Frank Merriwell Kelly." Merriwell was famous for his last second points to win games.
Dr. Allen substituted for Dick Harp, freshman coach who was scouting the Oklahoma A&M-

Southern California game at Tulsa. Jerry Alberts was high scorer for KU with 10. He sank four of the six shots he attempted during the evening.
But it was Olathe's Jim Hunger and Bob Simmons, with 17 points apiece, who stole the scoring show. KU's Don "Andy" Anderson played a hustling brand of ball and
was used extensively by Coach Allen. All 17 players suited up by Allen saw action.
The visitors could average only 24 per cent on shots, while the fresh maintained a 36 per cent average.
