Basketball Opener Is Tomorrow
The Kansas basketball team will be aiming at its fourth straight victory over the Northwestern Wildcats in the KU season opener tomorrow night at Evanston, Ill.
The Kansas team left for Evanston at 2 p.m. today.
Since 1951, when Northwestern defeated the Jayhawks 54-53, KU has taken three straight games from the Big Ten team.
KU head coach Dick Harp said he expects Northwestern to be a run-and-shoot team.
"Northwestern has lost three of five starters, but they still have a boy named Willie Jones. He can really go, and that's what we expect them to do," he said.
No Student Tickets For Russian Games
There will be no special student section or ticket prices for tomorrow's basketball double-header in Allen Field House.
The Wichita Vickers, 1959 National AAU champions, will play the Russian national team at 9 p.m. and the Wayland Flying Queens, 1959 national AAU women's champions, will meet the Russian national women's champions at 7:30 p.m.
The Vickers publicity office had indicated that special tickets would be available to students at $1 each. Tickets are being sold at $3, $2.50, $2 and $1, but there is no special student section. Earl Falkenstien, athletic department business manager, said today.

Frail as a bubble;
God made Love,
Love made Trouble."
Wildcat coach Bill Rohr lost his top three scorers from last year's Big Ten second-place team. Northwestern returns eight of 14 lettermen this year.
The greatest loss for the Wildcat team came in the graduation of 6-foot, 9-1 inch center Joe Ruklick, who hit 23 points per game last season to rank 42th among national scoring leaders.
Returning regulars are Jones, 6-foot, 4-inch forward and captain, who averaged 13 points per game last year, and Floyd Campbell, 6-foot, 1-inch guard.
Chuck Brandt, a 6-foot, 7-inch junior, will be at the other forward spot tomorrow night. Brad Snyder, 6-foot, 3-inch guard, will also be in the starting lineup. Sharing pivot

YOUNG MAN ... to pull off a really brilliant gift coup
This Christmas you might just as well get something you like . . . and can use! Example: the Cricketeer sport coat in their great glens, checks, sheltlands. How to swing it: use subtlety, leave this ad on Santa's plate with your size. Try persistency: make every other word in your conversation for one day, "Cricketeer sport coat". Or crude but guaranteed: grab Santa by the beard, hustle him in here, show him how great you look. Better show him the works . . . all our Cricketeers and the gift accessories that set them off.
