KU Wins As Lovellette Hits 29
Clyde Lovellette, Jayhawker 6 foot 9 inch center, was 29 points too much for the Missouri Tigers Saturday as he led his teammates to a 48 to 44 victory. Kansas hasn't been beaten on the court at Columbia since 1944.
The win gave Kansas a hold on third place in the Big Seven race behind Nebraska and Kansas State. The Tigers are in the conference cellar.

Lovellie played only thirty-one and one-half minutes of the game—for a scoring pace of almost a point a minute. Clyde fouled out in the second half after 14 minutes and 30 seconds had gone by.
Lovelle racked up 18 of Kansas's 24 points in the first half-playing all but three minutes. He accounted for 11 points in the second period before being forced out of the game.
Don Stroot, Missouri 6 foot 8 inch center, led his team in scoring with 12 points.
The first half saw both teams out in front.
Kansas got the first basket of the game as Lovellette hit off the pivot over Missouri's Jerry Fowler. But Fowler came right back with a two pointer.
Lovellette then hit a scoring spree and Kansas led 17 to 12.
The Tigers, however, came back with 10 points while the Jayhawkers were stone cold.
Lovellette then came back in the game after taking a short rest and pulled Kansas up to a 24 to 24 halftime tie.
Lovellette now has 267 points in 13 games for a season scoring average of 20.5 per game. This average ranks him in the top five scorers in the nation. In conference play, he has 70 points in three games for a 23.3 average. The conference season scoring record is 17.5 points a game held by Gerald Tucker, former All-American center from Oklahoma.
After being tied at 25-all just after the second half started, Kansas led throughout the last half from one to eight points.
With eight minutes played, Kansas held a 35 to 28 lead. While Missouri could add only free throws by Stroet, Murrey, and Witt, Kansas tallied with eleven points.
Bill Lienhard, Kansas sophomore forward, hit two goals. Claude Houchin scored the first of his three free throws, Waugh added a goal from the corner, and Lovellette one from the field and two from the charity line.
Lovellie scored the next seven points for the Jayhawkers before fouling out with 5:25 remaining. The Tigers fans gave him a tremendous ovation as he left the court.
Kansas led 42 to 36 with four minutes remaining, Bill Hougland scored his only point in the game and Houchin added a free throw to send K.U. ahead 44 to 36 with 2:28 remaining.
The Tigers came back fast with a rally that almost floored the Jayhawkers. Stroet hit from the field as Waugh drew his fifth foul on the play. Houchin added a free throw and Missouri came roaring back with six quick points.
Abe Rubin and Bill Stauffer added free throws and with one minute remaining Kansas still led 45 to 40. Bud Heineman, five-foot ten-inch jump shot artist, connected for two
goals within 20 seconds to give Kansas a real scare. Coach Allen's club stalled the remaining 40 seconds with good ball-control.
Kansas closed out the scoring by hitting three of four free throws while the Tigers fouled in attempting to get the ball. Lienhard hit a pair and Lyn Smith hit a free toss just before the final gun.
Missouri had trouble locating the basket in the second half hitting only six out of 36 attempts from the field. They hit only two goals in the first 12 minutes of the final period. For the whole game, Missouri hit only 15 of 56 shots for 26 percent. The Jayhawkers hit 46 percent of their shots.
Waugh and Leinhard each collected six points to back up Lovellette's 29 point total. These three players were the only Jayhawkers to score from the field.
Kansas will be idle until after finals when they resume conference play, meeting the Iowa State Cyclones in Hoch auditorium on Friday, Jan. 27.

Number Of Puffs Is A Relative Matter
"The Reader's Digest says only 14," spoke up Emily Stewart, journalism junior.
"The average cigaret contains 17 puffs." This statement was an example of humorous editorial comment taken from Cedric Adams, columnist for the Minneapolis (Minn.) Star, and read to the Editorial class by Charles G. Pearson, instructor of journalism.
"Well," Mr. Pearson remarked, "the Reader's Digest is a conservative magazine."
Fees must be paid before diplomas are issued, he said.
Seniors Must Pay Commencement Dues
The Veterans administration will pay the fees for 318 veterans. About 90 of the non-veterans have paid.
Approximately 100 seniors who will be graduated in June have not paid their commencement fees, Karl Klooz, bursar, said today.
Fees may be paid at the business office in Strong hall.
Porridge is known in Ireland as "stir-about."
Scientists Prove Kiss Thrill Electric
Don Stroot, Missouri center, had a big job Saturday in guarding Kansas' Clyde Lovellette. Stroot led the Tigers in scoring with 12 points.
The scientists have done it again.
They've proved that electric thrill derived from bussing your best girl friend isn't just a figment of the imagination.
When two teeth come in contact, which have different types of metal in the fillings, say the scientists, an electric current is set up. The current thus generated sometimes runs as high as one volt. The more fillings, the bigger the charge.
So when you don't get a charge out of kissing your girl or boy friend, whichever the case may be, you'd better investigate. Either the friend has perfect incisors (most unusual), or his teeth are like the stars, they come out at night.
Gym To Be Open During Final Week
There are no scheduled men's intramural basketball games until Feb. 2. Don Powell, director of intramurals, has announced.
Kansas elected the first woman mayor in the world—Mrs. Medora Salter of Argonia.
Robinson gymnasium and Robinson annex will be open each day until 10 p.m. during final week for anyone caring to workout, he said.
