COLUMBIA, Mo.—Kansas, a team that's been accused of not being able to win close games this season, proved the accusers wrong last night.
Associate Sports Editor
Using almost 40 minutes of defense that would have rated high on the Richter scale, KU held off several close challenges by Missouri in a game that was tight to the end.
In the end, KU demonstrated it was earthquake pressure pressure and beat the Tigers 88-45. The Jayhawks were relentless in their pressure defense, forcing the Tigers to commit 18 turnovers, any of which could be called vital.
To balance the defensive attack, the Jayhawks showed they could out-shoot the most accurate shooting team in the conference. They shot 20 of 13 from the field and 11 of 19 from the line, KU shot a surprising 55 percent for the game. Valentine finished with a game-high 27 points, one shy of his career high. It was a season-high performance for the Southern California game in December.

IT WAS APPARENT from the first jump ball that KU, now 5-4 in the conference, beat by 3-0. He was alive in the league race, but was instead going to play fundamental, team basketball. KU also wanted to avenge a previous three-rebounding hit against his coach's队 Coach Norm Stewart remembered.
Except for one stretch in each half, RU passed the ball on offense, working for the ball on defense.
"It was a reversal of the first game, only faster, when we didn't want." Stewart said.
KU also got off the defensive rebound unemployment line and started to work,

"WE DID THREE things very well tonight," KU coach Ted Owens said. "One, good defensive movement; two, fine passing and three, hitting the defensive boards.
With 2.09 showing, the fans who were filing out of Hearnes Center started lining the rails when Larry Drew, who led MU with 22, hit a 15 fader to bring MU within a fence. The game was a throw before the game was over, but he caught, Crawford hit five of six he attempted.
KU had to concentrate because the Tigers kept coming back like an incurable itch. In the first half, MU twice a 10-point KU lead to four points but balanced scoring by giving them a give them a 45-36 intermission lead. All KU starters finished in double figures.
"Our defense got us the lead in the early going. Our concentration was excellent."
Then, with 14:17 left in the game, MU tied the score at 52-52. KU rebuilt another 11-point lead in five minutes behind the shooting of John Crawford, who hit five points in less than a minute. He finished with 14.
"IT'S JUST something you have to on the line," Crawford said. "If you want to win, you have to put them down. I think we're getting our momentum down. We kind

Wilmore Fowler continued his hot streak, hitting five of eight from the field and from the dugout.

Netters work despite cold
By DAVID COLBURN
While most tennis enthusiasts sit at home waiting for spring and warmer weather, KU's men's and women's tennis squads are the ones practicing for their upcoming season openers.
They aren't trisking frostbite by practicing on the snow-covered courts at Allen Field House. Instead, the Jayhawks have taken a more hands-on approach, using both University and private facilities.
Coach Kimi Vivito puts his squads through workouts six days a week. Two of the coaches will be on a training camp.
where the players concentrate on conditioning skills, including running and agility.
Players spend the remaining days in the indoor courts at Avranha Racquet Club.

Court bars Fairbanks from work
The teams practice for two hours, five days a week, according to Kivisto. Practices are held in the early morning or late evening hours, time slots which are considered "non-prime" times and are therefore less costly.
BOSTON (UPI)--Chuck Fairbanks, barred by court order from coaching at the University of Colorado, would join the team. But the team was overturned, a CU attorney said Tuesday.
Earle Cookey, the attorney, told the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that a lower court injunction prohibiting Fairbanks from removing his only employment alternative
Surprises Monday thru Saturday 4 PM to 1 AM
He said Fairbanks, who announced last week he was quitting the New England Patriots, had no desire to return to the professional coaching ranks.
"IT'S THE only game in town argument," Cooley said. "The injunction forecloses to him the only job around. There has never been the slightest doubt he is through with professional football. He wants to return to the college ranks."

"The injunction is improper in that it
punishes the past conduct of the universi-
sity."
Judge Bailey Aldrich noted Fairbanks felt the same way in 1977, the year the coach signed a five-year contract extension with the Patriots.
Alvaram Racquet Club investors have also granted KU'suters complimentary membership and are required to student membership rate of $10 a month. The Jayhawks use secondary facilities, according to Billings, and play during nonprime hours at the regular rate of $8 per hour.

Practicing at Alvamar is, however, an expensive venture. Kivisto said.
Fairbanks informed the Patriots shortly after the Jan. 29 Pro Bowl game that he was no longer working for the NFL club, even though there were four years left on his contract. The team traded Fairbanks' intended move to CU through court action in Massachusetts and Colorado.

HE SAID no conflicts about court use have arisen between regular club members and lawyers.
"for three courts two hours a day you're talking more than $40," he said.
Kivito said practices at Alvaram focused on consistency drills and doubles play to develop his skills.
The court took the arguments under advisement and gave no indication when it would be made.
"They play before different crowds. They play in different areas of the country. And the Patriots do not recruit at the high school level," Cooley said.
Cooley also asked the three-judge panel to overturn the Jan. 15 injunction because CU and the New England Patriots did not compete.
"It takes more energy to coach indoors than outside. Our sailboat "because we need it to do the work," he said.
When practices move outdoors at Allen Field House after spring break, they will last for about three and a half hours, Kivisto said.
Blish rejected that argument, citing other cases which involved professional teams and teams from other leagues. He said the case was unreasonable because he asked the court to maintain the status quo.
"The damages we might suffer are difficult, if not impossible, to measure."
THE PATRIOTS' attorney, John Bishli, disputed Cooley's arguments, saying he felt the lower court injunction "prevents the case that which will exist" should Fairbanks leave.
