Sports Page 14 University Daily Kansan, December 7, 1981 'Hawks have first easy victory, 74-56 By RON HAGGSTROM Associate Sports Editor The wild finish was missing. However, that's the only thing the Jayhawks were missing Saturday night. KU, who won its previous two games by 1 and 2 points, came away with an impressive 74-56 triumph over the Michigan State Spartans at Allen Field House before 12,610 fans. **WERE WE a real basketball team tonight on both ends of the court," Coach Ted Owens said. "Every good team you see has a strong defense and it gets to you well enough to give you good rebound well against a Big Ten team." The Jayhawks' defense throughout the game and their second-half offense turned out to be the difficult one. "Kansas played well both on offense and defense," Michigan State Coach Coch Jud Heathcote said. "But the KU defense is what really won the game for Kansas." The defense held Michigan State to 40 percent shooting from the field and forced 17 turnovers. Michigan State's leading scorer, Derek Perry, held scoreless, and the Spartans starters only held a score. But the ingredients the Jayhawks have been missing moved up in the second half when the Chicago Bears went 15-4. It was KU's starting frontline that led the second half surge. During that half they hit 16 of 20 shots and scored 37 of KU's 46 points. AT THE BEGINNING of the half it looked like it was going to be the Jeff Dishman show. 1ne 6-00t-6 Hutchinson Community Junior College transfer scored the first seven points of the half for the Jayhawks and wound up scoring 16 points in the half, hitting all 5 field goal at least. Dishman wound up the evening with 21 points. "Dishman was painting myself in the second half of the game," he said. Forward counterpart David Magley, who finished in 18, scored 14 of those in the buff. "Everybody started to shoot a little better." Magley said. "We just got the momentum Knight responded in the second half and finished with 15 points. THISWILL WANT YOU TO "WE HAVE A lot of good shooters," Knight said. "No one could explain why we shot bad the last two games." The insertion of Tad Boyle at points guard also sparked the Jayhawks. Although Boyle finished with only 4 points he dished out 7 assists, 6 in the second half when he was able to get the ball inside. "Tad Boyd had the most impressive game, I thought." Heathcote said. However, Boyle was injured with 1:37 remaining in the game when Knight fell on top of him. "I don't remember to much of what happened," he said. "My memory is really fuzzy right now." Preseason All-America candidate Tony Gay continued to struggle from the field as he hit only 20 in three games. "That is the least of my worries," Owens said, taking good shots. He's playing fine biggets. "THE TEAM IS playing well without me shooted, but just be another one when I get my shooting back!" The Jayhawks, who have a 3-game winning streak, have won 16 straight games at home. KU will play its four straight home game tonight when the Jayhawks host Arizona at 7:35. Arizona brings a 1-1 record into the contest. The Lady Cats lead with 6-2, and the Addidas Las Vegas, 69-49, and beat Providence, 62-58. Seurer hopes to be healthy for bowl game Frank Seurer says yes. His doctor says no. the KU quarterback is struggling to come back in time for Kansas' Dec. 31 Hall of Fame Bowl appearance in Birmingham, Ala. Seuren's elbow was dislocated in KU's final game against Florida. Seurer says his doctor, Ken Wertberger, doesn't mind he'll be ready. "They are still being pessimistic," Seurer said. "But the chance is there." "I'm really excited," he said. "It should be a lot of fun. They've got quite a schedule for us. Seurer's right arm is in two casts, one above the elbow and one below. The casts are connected by steel hinges and cables to allow some mobility, "It ites pretty good," Seurer said. "The swelling's down an awful lot. The doctors say I'm coming after faster than normal. And it's not that sorne. "And it should be a good game. Their defense The cables restrict my movement. They adjust cables every week to allow more movement. KC Comets By JAN BOUTTE Sports Writer The green laser beams shot across the darkened arena, keeping time to the crowd-rousing music from the movie "Midnight Express." The beams crossed and came to rest on the home goal, where out of the smoke shone the neon-Comet logo, a background for the emerging players. Thus Kansas City was introduced to its newest professional athletes, the Comets. The home opener on Nov. 28 was an eye-opening experience for Kansas City soccer fans, who watched a game considerably different from the previous season in popularity in the last few years across Kansas. The Comets join the Wichita Wings as Kansas members of the four-year-old Major Indoor Soccer League. The Comets plan to capitalize on ongoing success and growth of soccer in the Midwest. BUT THE FANS caught onto the variations quickly and soon outviooted the Wichita Wings fans to cheer the Comets to a 5-4 overtime victory. the fans chaen celen thej in that the the gan ion sior T poo pla i it i ad dri bas oth oth to A pla sho inte The fans saw a form of the game adapted from Gerald "Magic" Celestin leads a Kansas City Come Soccer League, have drawn over 40,000 people for their Page 12 University Daily Kansan, December 8, 1981 Nooks Nooks From page 9 Thorumbray said the atic of Sellards fit a study in study that is based on hold, holding has and has no wind. "This place gets really intense during finals," Thornbury said. "People here are terrified." "You can't hear a thing up there," she added. Yet not everyone is lucky enough to live in such an ideal situation. TINA SCHAFFER, Green Bay, Wis. sophomore, said she left her sorority and went to the business and economics reading room in Summerfield Hall to Schafer said her house's chapter room was quiet, but that living in a sorority was "like living in a dorm and being bugged all the time." Jim Cramer, Shawnee Mission sophomore, said that he also could study in his fraternity's chapter room, but for a little variation he went to Fraser Hall, where he studied English, right, and the University Lutheran Church. “It’s hard to live in a room with three or four people on different schedules.” Cramer said. “I need a change of atmosphere every few weeks.” However, other individuals say they cannot study in total silence but need to have some kind of guidance. "The whole key to being successful is blocking out outside stimulation," Robert Racca, Boston, Mass., graduate student, said. Racca said he did most of his work in the physics department in Malott Hall, where he works. "I'm lucky I have my office," he said. "It hate to be the one to go to a dormitory to stay."

"It it's quiet in my room than it is, there but there's unlimited coffee here," he said. Connie Borcherding, Chicago, Ill., junior, she also studied at Perkins because "being away from the apartment you know have to ret it done." Students who choose Perkins may find time an important factor. Sherry Boldt, Perkins' dining room manager, said the restaurant instituted a one-hour study limit last September because students displaced regular customers who wanted full meals as opposed to gallons of coffee. hours," Boltd said. "They're getting them, they'll order food." For 45 minutes, they'll order food." She said that if the rush after bars closed each night declined because of studies, the restaurant might treat students with a bit more leniency during finals. The University libraries, however, will continue to limit available study hours MARILYN CLARK, reference librarian, said the various facilities on campus could not stay open later for students with owlish disabilities or staff members who staff the libraries take finals, too. Zummer's advice to plan ahead could eliminate some of the frustrations between Dale and him. "A lot of people come for four to five No matter which location appeals the most, "Do it very purposefully, and have in mind how long some things may take you," she said.
