KU Beats Huskers 49 To 36
Ten fouls slowed the Big Seven's individual scoring race to a trot as the conference's two top scorers went out at Hoch auditorium Saturday night as Kansas defeated Nebraska 49 to 36. The K.U. victory, coupled with Missouri's 59 to 43 triumph over Kansas State, also thoroughly scrambled the conference standings.
Towering Clyde Lovellette, Jayhawker center who leads the league's scorers, left the contest with five fouls and 10 points just two seconds prior to the end of the first half. Nebraska's Milton "Bus" Whitehead, runner-up to Lovellette in conference point-making, followed the K.U. big boy through the five-goal exit after playing 4 minutes 10 seconds of the second half and scoring four points.
The Javahawkers now are bunched with Kansas State and Nebraska in a three-way deadlock for second place in the Big Seven. Each team has won four games and lost two while Colorado leads the league with a record of five wins and two defeats.
The standings won't stay that way long, Nebraska will either move up to tie Colorado or drop to fourth place tonight in meeting Oklahoma at Norman. If Nebraska should lose, Colorado will still have company on top by Tuesday night when K.U. faces Kansas State at Manhattan.
faces K Petersen, who played with Nebraska in 1945, was Coach Allen's choice to replace Lovellette in the second half. He counted eight points before he was relieved when reserves took over for the final three minutes. Two quick baskets by Petersen with seven minutes to go gave Kansas its widest margin of the contest, 46 to 26, and left no doubt about the final outcome.
The contest started cautiously with K.U. Captain Claude Houchin's two free throws, the only points on the board when Lovellette hooked in the first field goal after six minutes of play. Bob Cerv countered quickly with a tip-in to start the Nebraskans, and after 10 minutes the Cornhuskers were leading 10 to 8.K.U.'s Bob Kenney hit from the corner 15 seconds later to tie it up, and at the 11-minute mark K.U. went into the lead for good on Dean Wells' long shot.
Lovellette stumbled over Anton Lawry for his final foul when the timekeeper's gun was in the air and ready to end the half. Some persons even thought the period had elapsed, but five seconds remained. Lawry scored on his free throw, and the score at intermission stood 24 to 17 with K.U. ahead.
Kenney, Houchin, and Petersen did the scoring as K.U. moved out to a 33 to 18 lead in the first five minutes of the new half before Jimmy Buchanan hit at long range to get the initial Nebraska field goal of the period. Bob Pierce and Larry Walsh scored free throws for the Cornhuskers to bring the count
to 35 to 22, but the Scarlet could get no closer in the ensuing action. As the contest waned, Dr. Allen used every man on the bench but Trainer Dean Nesmith.
Coach Harry Good's efforts to find a satisfactory point-producing combination were futile as the Huskers hit only a skinny 14 per cent of their shots. The Kansans collected on 31 per cent of their tries.
Despite his early departure from the game, Lovellette alluded all scorers with 10 points. Jim Buchanan was Nebraska's high with eight.
Nebraska's Kansas, without Lovellette, had to depend on a balanced attack—an oddity in the 1950 Jayhawker season. Bill Hougland and Houchin did the rebounding capably, most of the scoring came from Lovellette, Kenney, Petersen, and Houchin, while Dean Wells and Jerry Waugh handled the playmaking.
Wells' craftily brilliant floorwork and his continual ball-hawking resulted in his stealing the ball from Nebraska guards on several occasions.
several other N.U. players seemed to appreciate the presence of officials Mike Oberhelman and Whitey Rosenberger who called 45 fouls, 25 on Nebraska and 20 on Kansas, to add to the shagginess of the contest.
