KU Must Improve For Title Chance
By Dan Felger
If Kansas is going to make a serious bid for the Big Eight basketball crown this year, it's going to take improvement in every department, according to Jayhawker Coach Dick Harp.
This fact was glaringly demonstrated at Boulder Monday night when a so-so Colorado ball club rammed home four points in the final 21 seconds to spank the Jays 65-61. The loss marked one of the few times Kansas has been out-rebounded in the last two years, and the first time by such a sizable margin in quite a while.
Colorado's victory shoved KU down to fourth place with a 1-1 record. Meanwhile Kansas State climbed to the top of the conference heap with a 54-49 win over Oklahoma State's Cowboys.
"We had a general letdown against Colorado Monday night," said Harp when the Kansans arrived in Lawrence yesterday after flying from Boulder to Kansas City.
"Wayne Hightower played a real good ball game offensively, but we couldn't seem to get anyone else to help him out much with the scoring." he continued.
Hightower faked and fought his way to scoring honors with a 31-point production. But the sagging defense the Buffs threw against Kansas stymied Bill Bridges and Al Donaghue. Between them they could muster only 14 markers, nine of them coming from Donaghue.
"We need improvement in every category," coach Harp said. "We've

been stale since that doubleheader at Manhattan."
"We stopped Nebraska 60-47 and then got out rebounded (43-35) and outshot (43% from the field to 40%) and still only got beat in the last 30 seconds at Colorado—that's real disappointing especially when we played the game badly all around." Harp continued.
RADIATORS REPAIRED
CLEANED AND RECORED
Although the Kansans took a knockdown punch at Boulder, they still can't be counted out of the conference race. Harp said.
He added that the loss at Boulder wasn't in any way the fault of any one person or persons, but instead a general letdown as a team effort.
"Now we're back at home with a 1-1 record while Kansas State is home with a 3-0 mark and that's going to give them a tremendous boost in their title hopes.
"We weren't surprised at the way Colorado rebounded or shot, although it was much better than in their game with K-State—we just played badly all over," he stated.
"We're disappointed but not discouraged over that trip to Boulder. We've got a lot of games left and what we have to do now is get ready for our game Saturday night with Missouri," he concluded.

Hawker Track Squad Nears Indoor Season
Florida is a great place to live if you're an orange. Fred Allen.
Kansas' NCAA defending champion track team faces a lot of hard work before its opening meet of the indoor track schedule says Coach Bill Easton, who is more than a little optimistic about this year's squad.
"We haven't been able to run time trials since Christmas vacation," Easton said. "For the last two weeks we have been trying to work the track into shape. It finally seems to be coming around."
Easton hurried to add that just because the track is being worked on doesn't keep the Jayhawkers from keeping in shape. In fact, the
The KU women's bowling playoffs, Saturday, will have four teams vying for the gold-plated championship trophy, the Lucky Strikes, Alpha Omicron Pi first and second teams and the Setups.
Women to Bowl For Hill Title
Each team will roll one line against each of the other groups That team which rolls the highest total of all three lines wins.
The Alpha Omicron Pi second team will compete in the playoffs because its members have won the most games in the Wednesday league. The Lucky Strikes team is the Tuesday league champions and accumulated the highest team average in both leagues.
The Alpha Omicron Pi first team and the Setupups bowl Saturday since their members posted the second and third highest team averages.
Dick Wilson, a member of the winning team, had the high individual game at 248, high three game total. 592, and high six game total at 1160.
Phi Kappa Sigma won the Men's League tournament playoff Sunday as all competitive bowling on campus for first semester ended.
The Jayhawkers first meet of the indoor slate is a dual here against Oklahoma, Feb. 8. first day of second semester. Only three meets are scheduled before the Big Eight Indoor on Feb. 26 and 27 at Kansas City.
KU's track squad this year will be built around a nucleus of three All-American from last year. Team captain Clif Cushman, middle distance runner, leads the trio.
Alpha Tau Omega won second place in the tourney and had the high team single game at 713 and the highest three-game series. Kappa Alpha Psi was third.
Tourney Ends Fall Bowling
Teams placing first from the eight men's leagues entered the tournament and four teams were selected to fill the lanes on the basis of highest average.
Coach Easton lists 33 men on his varsity roster, nine seniors, 13 juniors and 11 sophomores. Leading the returning sophomores from last year's squad will be Paul Williams, a dash man, who was the only sophomore to score in the NCAA meet for Kansas last year.
Kansas coach has had the team running hard.
The other two track aces are Bill Alley, the nation's top javelin launcher last year, who will be back in school second semester after laying out this fall, and Bill Tidwell, the flying sprinter from Independence.
"Physically we are in good shape." Easton commented, "Bob Covey has been having trouble with arthritis in the feet but we expect him to be ready for the season."
Covey specializes in the quarter and half-mile. Last year he dipped to a 47.8 time in the 440-yard dash. The track roster:
The mixed men and women's league also ended its season Sunday. The Dunfel Pferd team won first and Les Quatres was second.
