Victorious Jays Meet Texas Tech Tonight
Sophomore Wayne Hightower provided the spark for the Jayhawker win as he pumped in 25 points to take the game scoring honors and grabbed off 13 rebounds. Al Donaghue, playing opposite Hightower at a forward position, was the only other Kansan to score in double columns as he chipped in 17 points.
Coach Dick Harp's Jayhawkers, fresh from a 76-67 win Saturday night over Northwestern, will open their home cage season tonight in Allen Field House when they entertain the Texas Tech Raiders.
Kansas opened its 59-60 campaign on a successful note at Evanston, Ill., against the Big Ten member Wildcats. The game was the first contest on the roughest pre-conference schedule the Jays have ever faced.
ment. Bridges, a junior from Hobbs, N.M., grabbed off 30 rebounds during the game to the total of 27 rebounds nabbed by seven other Jayhawkers seeing action in the game.
Northwestern led most of the way during the first half and clung to a scant 35-33 advantage at the intermission.
Bill Bridges, who gained an All- Conference berth at center last year because of his rebounding abilities, again set the pace in that depart-
The Jayhawkers took the lead for good with slightly over seven minutes remaining in the game on a rebound basket by Donaghue.
Monday, Dec. 7, 1959
Texas Tech opened its season Saturday by dropping a 79-66 decision to Colorado. The Raiders were paced by Gene Harrington, a 6-4 senior, who scored 17 points.
Coach Harp will probably deploy the same starting lineup tonight as he did Saturday with Hightower and Donaghue as forwards, Bridges at the post, and Dee Ketchum and Bob Hickman as guards.
Warriors Stay On Celtics' Heels
By United Press International
University Daily Kansan SPORTS
Try as they can, the Boston Celtics just can't shake off those pesky Philadelphia Warriors.
The Celtics ripped off their fifth straight victory yesterday in the National Basketball Association, beating the Minneapolis Lakers, 121-104.
The Warriors, meanwhile, stayed on Boston's tail by beating the Detroit Pistons, 118-116, for their third victory in the last four games.
As a result, the Celtics, who started the season as though they didn't plan to lose a game, hold only a $2^{1/2}$ game lead over the Warriors in the circuit's Eastern division race.
This time, though, the Warriors were hard pressed to beat the Pistons because Wilt Chamberlain, their hottest scorer, had to sit out the game with a bruised bone in his left foot. Chamberlain suffered the injury against the St. Louis Hawks Saturday night.

NEW PRODUCTS LEAD TO BETTER JOBS AT DU PONT
COULD YOU MAKE A BETTER BATHING SUIT?
The suits these girls are wearing are made of nylon, the first truly synthetic fiber. It is a product of DuPont research. Pure research. Applied research. And research in manufacture, research in product improvement. All require many types of skills.
You may not discover a new fiber, but as a technical man you can profit well anyway. For once a product—any product-is discovered, hundreds of technical men go to work. Pilot plants are designed. Operating procedures are devised. New plants are built. Manufacturing methods are improved. Product quality is worked on, backed by Du Pont's policy: Let's make it better . . . still better . . . even better. Discovery is but the starting shot; these later activities are the game. The players? Men of every technical specialty.
You'll find a teamwork atmosphere at
Du Pont. Others have. Maybe that's part of the reason half of Du Pont's profits today come from products unheard of twenty-five years ago.
If you join DuPont, the men who have worked on new products and ways to make them are the men who will teach you. You will be given an actual project assignment almost at once, and you will begin to learn your job by doing it. Advancement will come as rapidly as your abilities permit and opportunities develop. For DuPont personnel policy is based firmly on the belief in promotion from within the company strictly on a merit basis.
