Mrs. Lovellette Can Tell Tall Tales Of Towering Husband
By Paulyne Patterson
As I entered the room and started to sit down, Mrs. Clyde Lovellette, wife of KU's basketball star said, "You had better find another chair, hat one leans back and only fits people like Clyde."
She said that Clyde is very modest about making all-American in baseball last year and "he doesn't talk much about it."
Mrs. Lovellette attended Indiana State Teachers college.
When I asked about her six feet nine inch husband, she answered

that she hardly notices his height except when they go to some strange town and people turn around and stare.
"We went to Kansas City to see one of Clyde's fraternity brothers who is almost as tall as he. I felt so embarrassed by the looks people gave us as we walked downtown," she said.
Commenting on her husband's activities at home, she said, "Clyde likes to cook, but when he is in our small kitchen there's not much I can get done. When we were first married he did quite a bit of cooking. He especially likes to cook steak and potatoes. He doesn't have too much time now that basketball season has started," she added.
"His height makes it hard for him to buy sweaters," she commented. "Also he has to have shirts made at home in Terre Haute, Ind., at a factory. I make all his wool shirts and pajamas," she added. "His suits are tailor made in Kansas City but he has the most difficult time finding gloves and hats. Shoes however don't present much of a problem," she said.
The Lovellettes do not have to worry about Clyde being inducted into the Armed services. He was called for a physical examination last year but the examiners just looked at him and said he was too tall.

She said that their present bed doesn't fit him, but there's not much they can do about it right now. "He has no trouble driving our car because it has plenty of leg room," she added.
Sally Lovellette, who is five feet eight inches tall, met her husband in their home town of Terre Haute, Ind. They attended the same high school and were married June 9 of this year.
She commented that the chairs around the house have to be pretty stable for him. "He has only broken a few. He has to duck to enter all the doorways," she added.
