THURSDAY, JANUARY 4, 1951

TOURNAMENT LEFT OVERS . . . Claude Houchin, K.U.'s cage captain and guard last year, and Milton "Bus" Whitehead, all-conference center at Nebraska last year, were interested spectators Saturday night rooting for their respective schools in their battle for third place.
Houchin and Whitehead are now playing for the Phillips "66" Oilers. Claude informed us that he and Bus had driven up from Bartlesville, Okla., for the game after having played the Caterpillar Diesels at Peoria, Ill., Thursday and Friday nights. Victories over the strong Peoria club, which is a member of the National Industrial Basketball league, stretched the Oilers' winning streak to 42 straight. They have won 16 straight this year.
Local cage fans will have an opportunity to see Houchin and Whitehead in action in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium Jan. 31 when the Oilers play the Caterpillar Diesels in a charity benefit game.
Don Pierce, K.U.'s sports publicity director, did an excellent job handling press and radio relations for the tournament manager and Big Seven executive secretary, Reaves E. Peters.
Big Seven executive secretary, Karen L. For outstanding sportsmanship shown in the tourney, we'd like to single out Kansas' Clyde Lovellette. No matter how much the big fellow got pushed around, hacked, and ribbed, he took it all as a real sport. Much of the time he was guarded it seemed by three or four players when they'd drop back and attempt to jam up the middle.
As opposing players left the game and after the final gun of each contest, Big Clyde was always the center of several players shaking hands and talking about the game. To us, this shows real sportsmanship. Clyde is probably the best known, highest respected for his playing ability, and the most popular among conference players.
But not so with many of the fans, at least with Kansas State cage followers. Throughout the Kansas-Minnesota and Kansas-Nebraska games, Lovellette was continually called names whenever he approached the free throw line or when the roar died down enough that some "crack-pot" could bellar "Jelly-belly" or "Clown" or "shoot Goon."
Even with all this, Clyde just kept on pouring in the points. He'll probably make many Aggie fans eat their words when Kansas invades Manhattan on Saturday, Feb. 24, to play Coach Jack Gardner's Wildcats. Clyde only scored 20, 20, and 32 points against K-State in three games last year.
Kaucas State fans, look out this year!

St. Louis Goes Into Cage Limelight
New York, Jek. 4. (U.P.)-The St. Louis Billikins, who conquered Kentucky during the Sugar Bowl tournament, ran their record to 10 victories in 12 starts today to strengthen their bid for national recognition.
Latest Bills' triumph was an impressive 56 to 47 decision over powerful Notre Dame, ranked one of the midwest's best independents, in St. Louis Wednesday night.
Ray Sonnenberg and Ed Scott, the same pair of forwards who sparked the win over Kentucky, were the

big guns for St. Louis again as they chalked up 19 and 17 points respectively. Notre Dame, led by Marty O'Connor's 15 points, made its best challenge when it pulled up four points behind, 46-42, in the second half but the classy Bills then pulled away.
Besides Kentucky and Notre Dame, the men of Coach Ed Hickey now include among their victims Wisconsin, Holy Cross, Houston (twice), and Texas Christian. The Bills, ranked seventh nationally by
the United Press board of coaches, lost only to Ohio State by 10 points and to Bradley by six in the Sugar Bowl finals.
Two other teams ranked among the top 20 in the nation were in action last night and posted victories. Sixth-ranked North Carolina State, winner of the Dixie Classic tournament last week, beat George Washington for the second time this season, 93 to 59, for its 11th win in 12 starts.
