KU Hits Bottom On Big 8 Record
The Jayhawkers spent a costly weekend in California and came back today to find themselves sitting at the bottom of the Big Eight won-lost chart.
Playing UCLA on the first night of a two-night stand on the west coast, Kansas choked up and lost 72-61. It was nearly the same story the next night when the Jayhawkers met Southern California. The score there was USC 68, Kansas 55.
Fans with an unlimited faith in the supremacy of Big Eight teams found little to be happy about when Iowa State lost to the same teams. The Cyclones lost to USC 71-62, and to UCLA 65-53.
Ron Loneski continued to play brilliantly despite the double loss. He pumped in 28 points Friday night and followed up with 15 on Saturday.
"Bridges played two good games," he said. "Donaghue played better than he had yet this year in the Saturday night game."
Kansas State is riding along undefeated but the surprise team of the early season is Colorado.
The experts, looking over schedules before the season started, saw enough vacancies in Coach Sox Walseth's roster to predict he would fall to the bottom.
Now two weeks later, the Buffalofoes have a 4-1 mark, good for second place in the all games standings.
The Buffaloes ground out a pair of victories over Washington the first week and added two more vie-
ories last week over Montana and the Air Force.
Kansas State, meanwhile, skimmed to a pair of wins over California and San Francisco, first on Bob Boozer's hectic last minute efforts and then on four free throws by Steve Douglas in a 53-52 tussle Saturday.
Kansas State and Kansas host North Carolina State and St. Joseph at Manhattan Friday night and then switch opponents and locations, to Lawrence, Saturday night.
Iowa State and Drake host Oklahoma City and Colorado State while Oklahoma State journeys to Lexington, Ky., to meet West Virginia. Kentucky and Ohio State also play Friday in the first of the double-headers at Lexington.
Half the Big Eight teams go into spectator-attracting doubleheaders this Friday and Saturday, with two others, Colorado and Oklahoma, taking on west coast teams.
That leaves Oklahoma the problem of playing Southern California Friday and Colorado twice meeting UCLA, the teams that toppled Kansas and Iowa State.
