The KU basketball team, gathering momentum with every outing; entertains the defense minded Oklahoma Aggies tonight in Allen Field House. Game time is 7:35 p.m. with no less than 11 radio stations carrying broadcasts of the game.
KU Has Height Edge
Kansas will be a definite favorite with its 14-1 season record and Wilt Chamberlain. However, the Aggies, although faring poorly in the Missouri, Valley League, have won 8 and lost only 1 in non-conference play.
Drawing the unenviable job of guarding Chamberlain will be 6-6 Aggie center Henry Kemple. Kemple, who was ineligible the first semester, is averaging 17.5 for his two starts and is tough off the boards.
RC Has Inception Age Aggie Coach Clarence (Hank) Iba, the Iron Duke of college basketball, will start a lineup that gives away two inches of height per man to the talented Jayhawkers.
Phog Missing From Scene
The Jayhawkers threw up a tight zone defense against Nebraska Saturday and could use the same medicine for the Aggies. With Wilt always playing under the basket in the zone, Kansas is assured of its share of the rebounds.
This will be the first game since 1936 that there is no Phog Allen-Hank Iba rivalry in the heated KU-Aggie struggle. However, Iba's new opponent, Coach Dick Harp, learned his basketball from the old master, Allen.
The Aggles will throw their barbed wire defense, which is currently ranked No. 1 in the nation and is an Iba trademark, around Wilt and his teammates.
This could develop into a real low scoring affair as the Jayhawkers hold the No. 5 defensive position nationally. Teams have sought to cope with Chamberlain by shooting deliberately and going for the high percentage shots, thus lowering the point totals.
Oklahoma A&M will counter its lack of team height with a withering fast break sparked by Mel Wright, 6-0 senior guard and the team's leading scorer.
Aggies To Play Zone
The Aggies usually use a tenacious man-for-man defense but will probably make the switch to zone for this game.
The Jayhawkers will throw a balanced scoring attack at the Aggies, with Chamberlain's 29.8 average
