Lovellette 32, St. Joseph's 41, As KU Wins, 60-41
Kansas opened a three-game eastern tour with a 60 to 41 win over St. Joseph's college Saturday night in Philadelphia with the Jayhawkers' big All-American center Clyde Lovellette scoring 32 points, or two more than half the Kansas total.
The victory gave Coach F. C.
"Phog" Allen's club its third straight win of the season and set the stage for Tuesday night's battle with St. John's university in New York's Madison Square Garden. The Redmen have a 4-0 record and are rated among the top ten teams in the nation.
Lovelove's total pushed his season mark to 79 points for three games and gives him a 26.3 average a game.
Lovellette's 32 points came on 14 goals and four free throws. His total set a new single game record for Philadelphia's Convention hall by a visiting player. The previous record was 11 points s e t by Ken Goodwin of Rhode Island in 1949 against St. Joseph's.
LOVELLETTE Kansas
His 14 field goals also equalled the record for most two-pointers in one
game by a visiting player. Mike Santoro of Rhode Island previously scored 14 goals against St. Joseph's in 1945.
The Jayhawkers held a seven-point 31 to 24 lead at halftime. This K.U. margin had been as great as 31 to 15 before Coach Allen pulled his big center out for a rest. St. Joseph's followed by closing the gap to only seven points.
At the start of the second half, the losers cut the Jayhawkers' lead to four. points. before. Lovellette decided to take things into hand himself. He scored Kansas' first 10 points in the second half before his teammates took up some of the offensive burden.
The big Kansan had scored nine field goals and two free throws before leaving the contest.
St. Joseph's received a severe blow that ended any chance they had of beating K.U. when its biggest man, John Doogan, 6-foot 8-inch sophomore center, left the game early in the first half with an injury. He had been doing a nice job of guarding Lovellette's offensive tactics.
With his big height advantage, with Doogan out of the game, Lovellette scored almost at will and proved the deciding factor and margin.
Once Coach Allen removed his star, the game became a nip-and-tuck affair with the losers holding their own. In fact, they outscored K.U. with big Lovellette on the bench.
The Jayhawkers captain, Jerry Waugh, scored nine points on four goals and a free throw. The only other K.U. player to hit more than one field goal was forward Bob Kenney, who accounted for three goals and a charity toss for seven points.
For the St. Joseph's club, center Michael Fallon led the scoring with 12 points. Edward Garrity, forward, helped the losers cause along with 10 points on four goals and two free throws.
Inability to connect at the charity line cost the St. Joseph's club as they could score on only nine out of 20 attempts. Kansas made good eight out of 13 free throws.
Sunday morning Coach Allen and his Kansas team moved into New York City by train for Tuesday night's game with St. John's university. The team is staying at the Paramount hotel and will remain there until Friday morning when they depart for Lexington, Ky.
Billy Goodman Wins League Batting Ribbon
New York—(U.P.)-Versatile Billy Goodman of the Red Sox, a skinny, unimposing-looking young man who could double for a ribbon clerk in a department store, was awarded the American League's Blue Ribbon for batting on the basis of his .354 mark last season.
Goodman, a pale 150-pounder who at various times during 1950 played first base, third base, and the outfield, won the title by recording 150 hits in 424 times at bat in a performance that included 25 doubles, three triples and four homers in 110 games.
A left-handed hitter serving his fourth season in the big leagues, the 24-year-old Goodman captured the crown comfortably, finishing 14 points ahead of runnerup George Kell, the Detroit third baseman who was the 1949 batting champion.
Two of Goodman's team-mates, shortstep Vern Stephens and rookie first baseman Walt Dropo, tied for the runs batted in title, each with 144 R.B.I.'s.
For Stephens, it marked the second straight year that he wound up in a tie for the honor. In 1949, he drove in 159 runs to tie for the lead with team-mate Ted Williams.
Al Rosen, Cleveland's rookie third baseman, hit the high-water mark in home runs with 37, topping Dropo by three round-trip walls. Joe Dimmaggio of the Yankees was third with 32 homers.
Dom Dimaggio, Boston's speedy,
bespectacled center fielder, ranked
third in batting with a .328 average
and led in runs scored with 151 and
in stolen bases with 15. Dropo compiled the most total bases. 326.
Kell, who went all-out in an attempt to defend his batting title successfully, carved a 340 percentage, drove in 101 runs, collected the most hits, 218, and led the league in doubles with 56. Shortstop Phil Rizzuto of the Yankees and Kell were the only players to reach the 200-hit mark, Rizzuto getting an even 200.
All told 17 players who batted 400 or more times, managed to hit .300 or better, compared to only 12 who did in 1949.
Cleveland's Larry Doby finished fourth in the batting derby with a .326 average while Allen "Zeke" Zarilla of the Red Sox was fifth with .325. Also in the top 10 were Rizuze, .324; Walt "Hoot" Evers, Detroit, .323; Larry "Yogi" Berra of
Coach Allen In Favor Of 12-Foot Basket
By DON PIERCE
K. U. Sports Publicity Director
Kansas basketball coach F. C. "Phog" Allen not only hoped to win a couple of basketball games as he departed with his team Friday for a three-game eastern swing, but also was poised for a debunking campaign over the matter of the 12-foot basket.
The latter item, which the Mt. Oread Maestro has long championed, has accumulated strange reverse English of late. There is widespread belief, most of which emanates from the eastern press, that Coach Allen no longer favors raising the baskets from his present level of 10 feet since his acquisition of Clyde Lovellette, the 6-foot 9-inch scoring marvel.
"How the idea originated that I'm not for the 12-foot basket now that we have Lovellette and Born (B. H. Born, 6-9 freshman center from Medicine Lodge, Kan.) is a mystery to me," the doctor points out, with some feeling.
"Of course, I still want a 12-foot basket. There is nothing the matter with the big man in the game today. The fault lies with the low, antiquated 10-foot goal. I said for publication no less than six times last year (Lovellette's first as a varsity regular) that I am still for a 12-foot basket. Apparently some of the writers to not read their contemporaries."
This rule provided that any foul committed in the last two minutes was to be treated as a technical, with the offended team taking the ball out of bounds whether the toss was made or missed. This standard
Coach Allen, who herded his club to the East with two wins in its first two games, 51 to 35 over Creighton, and 56 to 38 over Utah State, also took time out to level fire at the elimination of the two-minute rule which he authored last season.
Evers, Dom Dimaggio, and Bobby Doerr, veteran Boston second baseman, were tied for the most triples with 11 apiece. Rizzuto led in sacrifice hits with 19.
the Yankees, and Dropo, 322 each,
and Husky Hank Bauer of the Yankees, 320.
Collectively, the Red Sox batters spread-eagled the field with a team batting average of .302-20 points higher than both the Tigers and Yankees, who finished in a second place tie with percentages of .282
Boston was in front in runs batted in with 974 but the Indians, thanks chiefly to Rosen, led in home runs with 164.
was booted because of charges that it turned a 40-minute game into one of 38 minutes.
Boston, however, left the most men on bases, 1,255, while the Browns left the least men stranded, 1,141.
That is one reason the Kansas coach has instigated his free-throw waiving policy on all one-shot fouls from the outset of the game. In their opening victories, the Jayhawkers camned 11 charities while trying only 21. They have toed the gratis line only when. Lovellette, their principal scorer, is riding the bench or after two-shot fouls, taking the second out of bounds.
"If the home team is behind late in the game you are going to see mayhem. The rule makers simply are asking the officials to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for them now."
"We have exactly the same situation as we had with the two-minute rule." Coach Allen contends, "except that now you have less protection from fouling since you cannot take the ball out of bounds if you make the free throw. They have only changed the rhetoric of the rule.
To date this has paid off. Off 28 foul waivers, Kansas collected 11 goals or 22 points, an equivalent of 78 percent of its free throws. Last year Kansas hit 65 percent of its free throws. Temple, which led the nation's free throwing derby last winter, hit 70.8 percent or an equivalent of 7.2 per cent less than the Jayhawkers have accumulated by their bizarre method.
Coach Allen contends his team will score more points in this manner at the same time retaining ball possession. Creighton had only 12 points at halftime. Utah State 13.
"I'm still for the center jump too," Coach Allen emphasizes, "and it's coming back. The Big Seven and Missouri Valley conferences are playing in quarters this season instead of halves. In our first two games, the new quarters were set in motion by the tip-off at center."

The commission is now holding hearings. The educators have presented witnesses in an effort to show that television is ideal for educational programs, that the public wants them, and that the nation's schools can provide them.
The committee has retained as counsel retired Brig. Gen. Telford Taylor, former commission chief counsel who also served as chief U.S. prosecutor at the Numberg trials.
Witnesses to testify include Dr. Howard L. Bevis, president of Ohio State university; Dr. John Hannah,

No commercial telecaester has appeared in opposition to the educators. In fact, one of the educators, supporting witnesses was Merlin H. Aylesworth, former president of the National Broadcasting company.
Right now the hearings involve only the question of reserving TV frequencies for educators. If the commission decides to do so, it will then have to establish the rules to govern educational TV programs.
