KU Rolls In 2nd Half Downs Bluejays 65-47
By CHARLEY BURCH
Daily Kensan Sports Editor
A last-quarter scoring spree of 14 points by Cumulus Clyde Lovellette enabled the Kansas Jayhawkers to pull away from the Creighton Bluejays and win 65-47 after a tight game at Omaha Monday night.
Creighton's 6 feet 6-inch center, Bill Heyden, threw a blanket-like cover over the Kansas point maker for the first three quarters. He limited him to a free throw in the first quarter and nine points the first half.
Heyden fouled out with a minute gone in the final quarter and big Clyde cut loose with 14 points to raise his total to 25.
Kansas was ahead 30-27 at halftime. The Jayhawkers were forced to turn on the steam in the second half to subdue the stubborn Blue-jays. \
Kansas Rated Eighth In Nation
New York- (U.P.) -Kentucky, last season's NCAA champion, was the overwhelming choice as the nation's No. 1 basketball team today by the 35 coaches who make up the United Press rating board.
The Wildcats, who opened their season with a 97-27 victory over Xavier although minus the services of seven-foot Bill Spivey Monday night, were the only team named by every coach and compiled a total of 341 points. Twenty-nine coaches ranked Kentucky first and the other six placed the Wildcats either second or third.
Illinois and Kansas State each was named the top team in the country by two coaches and St. John's of Brooklyn and St. Louis university were named first by the other two coaches.
Illinois, named second on 14 cards and third on seven, ranked second with 257 points. St. John's, which has cruised to three consecutive victories, ranked third with 217 points; the University of Washington was fourth with 150 points and Kansas State was fifth with 145 points.
St. Louis, with 19 points; Oklahoma A&M, with 107; Kansas, with 101; North Carolina State and Wyoming with 76 each, and Indiana, with 67, followed in that order.
In last week's pre-season ratings the coaches ranked Kentucky, Illinois, Washington, Oklahoma A&M, St. John's, St. Louis, North Carolina State, Kansas, Wyoming and Kansas State as the top 10. Kentucky was named first by 32 coaches and received 345 points last week.

I WISH SOMEONE
WOULD TELL HIM . . .
Creighton was in the lead once 10-9, but a free throw by Bill Lienhard and fielders by Bob Kenney and Bill Hougland put Kansas ahead to stay.
The Jayhawkers spurted quickly in the third quarter with Lovellette hitting a pair and Dean Kelley scoring five points to widen the Kansas margin.
The pesky Creighton team, however, remained in the battle until the last eight minutes. At that point Kansas was ahead 48-40 and Bill Heyden fouled out enabling Lovellette to resume his point-making ways.
New York Cleaners
Kenney was KU's second highest scorer with 15 points and Kelley pumped through 13 points, Lienhard made seven and Hougland came through with five to complete the Kansas scoring.
Freshman Ed Cole poured in 14 points for Creighton to lead his team's scoring attack.
Heyden, who was the Bluejays' second top scorer last year, counted only once from the field and four times from the free throw line to fall below par with six points.
