Wheeler, Whitney Lead Iowa State
Henry Whitney will lead the Iowa State Cyclones into Allen Field House tomorrow night to face the league-leading Kansas Jawhakers.
Kansas will be playing against one of the tallest teams in the conference against the Cyclones.
Whitney is the leading Iowa State scorer and rebounder. He is averaging 15.9 points per game for Coach Glen Anderson. The 6-7 forward has also pulled down 137 rebounds. He is leading KU's Bill Bridges 25-13 in league rebounding thus far .
Iowa State has a tall trio to bolster the center spot. Probable starter is 6-11 Terry Roberts. Also seeing a great deal of action should be 6-8 Bob Stoy who is the Cyclones' fourth best scorer and 6-6 Sam Barnard who is only one point behind Stoy.
The playmaker for the Cyclones is 5-40 guard Gary Wheeler. He is averaging 12.7 points per game to rank as the second best on the I-State team in this department but has been most valuable as the "quarterback" of the Cyclone offense.
John Ptacek, 6-4, is the other backcourt performer for the Cyclones who are trying for their second conference win against one defeat.
Because of his fine play in the Big Eight tournament. Whitney was picked by nearly all the coaches as the most improved player in the league. He had 23 points in the Cyclones' 76-72 loss to KU in the tourney.
Opposite Whitney at forward will be 6-5 Murrell who is ally backed up by 6-4 Marv Straw who is third in Cycle scoring.
Kansas will be placing its newest found weapon, phenomenal shooting from the field, on the line tomorrow. As a result of the fine Jayhawker射击 last weekend the team shooting average is 39.9 per cent.
The leading individual shooters for KU are Bridges, 45.2 per cent. Nolen Ellison, 44.7 per cent, and Jerry Garner, 43.2 per cent.
Wayne Hightower continues to lead the Jayhawkers' scoring with a 15.2 point per game average.

The victory kept the Celtics two games in front of the second-place Philadelphia Warriors in the Eastern Division of the National Basketball Association. The Warriors downed the St. Louis Hawks, 111-102, and Detroit defeated Cincinnati, 124-112, in the other scheduled games.
Cousy, who led Boston with 33 points, opened the overtime session with a field goal and made good on three free throws before the game ended. Dick Barnett paced the Nats with 33 points.
Wilt Chamberlain and teammate Al Attles were the big guns in Philadelphia's victory over St. Louis.
Chamberlain scored 37 points while Attles registered 21 in addition to giving a brilliant exhibition of ball hawking and feeding. Clyde Lovellette was high man for the Hawks with 29.
This game is the toughest to pick but the edge is given to the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Bailey Howeil scored 33 points in leading the Pistons to their victory over the Royals at Fort Wayne, Ind. The Pistons came on to win after trailing 68-83 during the third quarter. Oscar Robertson led the losers with 31 points.
The fourth game pits Oklahoma State against Missouri. Unless the Tigers are exceptionally inspired because of the recent activities in Columbia, the Cowboys should defense their way to victory.
of the night.
By Bill Sheldon
The big game is the battle here in Allen Field House as the league-leading Jayhawkers face potent Iowa State.
A full slate of games will be played Saturday night in Big Eight championship play. All the games should be close, or at least interesting. But this should be the case almost every night of the play.
Since KU has been playing, according to Coach Dick Harp, its best basketball of the season, it should be more than a match for the Cyclones.
Things to watch for in this one will be the individual battle between Kansas' Wayne Hightower and high scoring Henry Whitney for I-State and improved offensive play for KU along with the inspired play of sophomore guard Nolen Ellison.
Monday night the Jayhawkers should beat Oklahoma State and Colorado should bow to Oklahoma.
Another important duel pits Kansas State against Oklahoma. The Wildcats are facing a tough luck Sooner squad and the determination of Oklahoma to upset the ninth ranked K-Statters could play an important part in the outcome, but a win for the Wildcats is predicted.
Surprising Nebraska risks its first place tie with KU against Colorado in what could be the closest game
Thus far the predictions for basketball are: 43 right, 14 wrong for 75 per cent.
