'Toppers Will Defend Slate
New York, Jan. 13—(UP)—Western Kentucky's defense of its unspotted record tonight will highlight the lightest night of the current week in collegiate basketball.

The Hilltoppers, who have won 11 games—more than any of seven major unbeaten teams remaining in the nation, will put their record on the line against Evansville. Tonight's second leading game has Holy Cross meeting Dartmouth at Hanover, N.H., in a game that may eventually determine the New England representative in the N.C.A.A. tournament.
The septet of undefeated teams was kept intact last night when Cincinnati administered a 65 to 48 drubbing to St. Francis of Brooklyn, and Villanova's Wildcats clawed Fordham, 64 to 35.
Other leading games tonight are La Salle (9-1) against Toledo; Bradley (13-3) vs. Dakota Wesleyan; Texas Aggies vs. Rice in a Southwest conference game; Clemson vs. Furman in the Southern conference; The Madison Square Garden doubleheader featuring Syracuse vs. New York university and Temple vs. St. John's; Xavier vs. Miami of Ohio; and Richmond vs. Virginia.
In top games last night:— Yale scored its third Ivy league victory in four starts by dumping defending champion Columbia, 65 to 51; Pittsburgh, held to 15 points in the first half, came back to beat Army, 42 to 35; Permsylvania beat Maryland, 81 to 67; Cornell downed Canisius, 64 to 46.
'Phog' Wants Center Jump
Louisville edged North Carolina State, 72 to 71; North Carolina nipped Wake Forest, 55 to 50; William and Mary won its 14th game in 16 starts, beating the Naval training Command 74 to 46, and Valparaiso nicked St. Joseph's, 49 to 48.
Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, Kansas' head basketball coach, has written a letter to Miami university's coach explaining that Clyde Lovelette is not seven feet tall. In his letter Dr. Allen says "That seven foot boy you talk about .measures exactly six feet, eight and three-fourths inches by the steel tape."
Blue Foster, Miami's head coach had complained to newsmen that you didn't hear "Phog" Allen wanting to move the baskets up to 13 feet this year because he has a seven foot freshman player from Indiana.
Foster tells the story that Lovellette was being sought by Tulane university. The tall Indiana boy showed up in New Orleans where he was given a new suit of clothes.
Foster says that North Carolina also bought the sought-after star two suits of clothes — one for winter and one for summer.
The Miami coach goes on, Lovelette showed up at Kansas where he is the best dressed basketball player. And that's why you don't hear Allen complaining about the height of the baskets this season.
Allen isn't concerned so much now about higher baskets. He wants to take the control of the game away from tall players. To do this he would like to jump the ball at center after each field goal, and eliminate the scramble for it after each free throw.
Dr. Allen has an idea also that the players should rotate at center like the batters in a baseball game. He thinks this would break up controlled tipoffs.
"There's no reason why a big man should be given the chance to tap in the ball after a missed free throw especially when none of the officials will let you touch him," says Allen.
His plan for basketball is simple. He wants "to make everybody shoot and nobody dunk."

Aiming for his third letter in basketball at K.U. in Harold E. England, physical education junior. One of last year's outstanding players at a forward position, he is one of the rocks round whom Coach "Phog" Allen hopes to build a Big Seven this year.
Hal is 21 years old, 6 feet 2 inches lengthwise, and weighs in at 170
pounds. He is single (says he can't find a girl who will have him) and a navy veteran.
At Halsteed high school, Hal lettered all four years in basketball and earned two in track. They won three state basketball championships in "class B" while he was there. He was all-state center his junior and senior years.
He likes movies and all sports either as a player or spectator, but basketball is meat and drink to him. After being graduated he hopes to play several years of professional ball before settling down to some sort of business.
