UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1950 PAGE SIX KU, Oklahoma In 67th Cage Meeting Tonight Probable Starting Lineups Probable Starting Lineups Kansas Pos. Oklahoma Hawaii F Oklahoma England F Speegle England F Gusgow Lovellette C Freiherr Houchin G Merchant Waugh G Morris Kansas and the Oklahoma Sooners open the 1950 Big Seven conference basketball season tonight in Hoch auditorium. Tip-off time for the 67th renewal of the series is set for 7:30 p.m. The Jayhawkers have won 42 of the 66 previous meetings of the two schools, but Kansas will go into tonight's game a decided underdog. Oklahoma has won five of seven games this season, including two in the pre-season tournament, and currently is ranked 17th in the nation. The Sooners hold victories over Texas, 65 to 48; Illinois, the defending Big Nine champions, 55 to 47; C.C.N.Y., 67 to 63; Iowa State, 66 to 57; and Kansas State, 55 to 50. The Sooners win a return game; and to Missouri in the finals of the conference tournament. 42 to 44. Kansas downed Purdue 60 to 52 in its only home game of the season. Its over-all record against strong opposition is four wins in ten games. Kansas trailed at halftime in only two games—Duquesne and Holy Cross. Three regulars from the Sooners 1949 conference co-champions will take the court against Kansas tonight. Graduated are Paul Courty, whose jumping left-handed shots plagued Kansas for three years, and little Kenny Pryor, long shot artist. Courty's shot in the last minute and a half defeated Kansas in the finals of the conference pre-season tournament the past season, 52 to 49; and his corner shot with nine seconds remaining beat the Jayhawkers at Norman a week later, 38 to 36. Courty also paced Oklahoma to a 55 to 45 win over Kansas in Lawrence a year ago as the Sooners swent the season series. Wayne Glasgow, sophomore sensation in 1949, big Bill Waters, and Paul "Cat" Merchant are returning regulars. Glasgow, who finished third in conference scoring in 1949 with an 11 point a game average, and Merchant, a smooth passing guard, were named to all-conference teams the past season. Glasgow scored 39 points in the three Kansas games in 1949, Waters scored 34, and Merchant 23. Much attention will be focused on the duel between Clyde Lovellette, Kansas' high scoring center, and Oklahoma's two big pivot men Waters and Marcus Freiberger. Lovellette has scored 197 points in 10 games for an average of 19.7 points a game, ninth best individual mark in the nation. Freiberger, 6 feet 11 inches tall, the tallest player in Sooner and conference history, and Waters, a 6 foot 6 inch, 230 pound boy, will alternate at center. Other possible starters for Oklahoma tonight are players who were 6-foot tall. They are Walter Morris, Douglas Lynn, who is 6 feet 8 inches tall, and Don Leake. Kansas will probably start the same lineup that it used in the three tournament games in Kansas City. It consisted of Harold England and Bill Hougland at forwards, Clyde Lovellette at center, and Claude Houchin and Jerry Waugh at guards. Bruce Drake, coach of the Sooners, and F. C. "Phog" Allen, veteran Lovellette On Way To New KU Scoring Record While Oklahoma is pitting its new offense against Kansas here tonight, in the Big Seven's 1950 basketball openers, the Sooners also must concern themselves with surmounting the league's newest defensive problem. Phog Allen will show the scourge in the 6 foot 2 inch form of Clyde Lovellette, his huge sophomore center. It is possible that the boy from Terre Haute, Ind., may be the loop's most dread scorer of all-time. He already has a good start toward all K.U. marks. Here are the Big Seven's top scorers through games of Jan. 3.

This performance earned him all-tournament varsity honors. He was the lone sophomore selected on the two top teams.

Ray Ebling, a two-time all-American forward who paced the old Big Six in scoring from 1934 through 1936, made no more than 183 points during his entire sophomore season of 17 games. This is 16 points below Lovelette's record for 10 games. Lovellette has at least 62 more games as a Kansas regular to better this mark and needs only five big nights to do so. His high to date is the 28-point detonation against Creighton as K.U. dropped on early season 54 to 59 decision in Omaha. Charlie Black, regarded as the greatest player in Mt. Oread history, gathered 245 times during his 22-game sophomore year of 1942. This is the best second-year record on Jayhawker books, yet Black's average at 11.1, is 8.6 points under Clvde's pace. Black also is holder of the school record of 10 games in which he scored 20 or more points. It took "the Hawk" 86 games to amass this record.
