Owls Care Not For Wilt They'll Take Rodgers
The Temple Owls, with a classy string of 14 straight victories, don't care about all those raves for Wilt Chamberlain, Oscar Robertson and Elgin Baylor; they'll still take Guy Rodgers, the guy they're counting on to lead them into a post-season tournament berth.
More than any other player, the 22-year-old Rodgers has been responsible for the current Temple winning streak that has made the Owls the Nation's eighth-ranked team.
His performance against Duquesne in a 72-48 victory for Temple last night was a typical one.
Rogers was individual high scorer with 25 points. He also had six assists and six rebounds.
OSU Downs Tulsa
Oklahoma State and Bradley, the other two teams in the top ten who played last night, also encountered a minimum of difficulty.
Seventh-ranked Oklahoma State chalked up its 14th victory in 16 starts by defeating Tulsa, 64-46, while ninth-ranked Bradley defeated Arizona, 71-58.
Villanova Wins Late
Villanova had to rally to defeat Seton Hall, 72-64, for its eighth victory in 13 games. Villanova frittered away an early 25-9 lead but then came on to score 16 points late in the second half while Seton Hall scored only two. Joe Ryan was high scorer for Villanova with 22 points.
George Carter's two free throws in the last 30 seconds gave Iona College of New Rochelle, N. Y., a 67-66 triumph over Loyola of Chicago.
In games involving service teams, Navy and the Air Force won but Army lost. The Middies licked Columbia, 91-69 and the Air Cadets beat Colorado State, 77-66. Syracuse downed Army, 75-63, however.
Elsewhere around the country, Penn state edged Pennsylvania, 71-70; Fordham defeated Providence in overtime, 54-52; Manhattan defeated Adelphi, 72-59; Lafayette defeated Delaware, 72-50; Eastern Kentucky downed Louisville, 75-62; Memphis State defeated Tennessee Tech, 76-59; Marquette routed Creighton, 94-48; Dayton defeated Miami, 64-62, and Washington (Mo.) defeated Det auw. 63-58.

KU's Hopes Rest With Cyclones
Iowa State basketball coach Bill Strannigan has contended for over a year that K-State, not Kansas, was the team to beat for the Big Eight title.
Strannigan now finds it difficult to look forward to the game with much optimism. His Cyclones play Kansas State, now leading the league with a 5-0 record, in Manhattan Saturday.
Kansas University hopes rest on that game. If K-State is tripped somewhere along the way by a conference team Kansas, by winning March 8 may tie for the title.
"It's difficult to look forward to the game with much optimism," said Strannigan "But we feel we have a chance—we still have a chance as long as we still have to play them."
pre-season tournament in Kansas City, Mo.
The Cyclones defeated Nebraska 78-63 last week. In that game Crawford scored 19 points and snared 15 rebounds.
Iowa State lost to K-State in Ames earlier but 6-5 John Crawford was out much of the game with an ankle injury suffered in the
We tampered with our lineup a lot when Crawford was out," Stran-nigan said.
"We never did find any other boy who could score 20 points and get 15 rebounds a night. Now that he's back the boys are ready to play again."
The Cyclones will have to change their strategy against K-State. Their full court press is not effective against the Wildcats' two good ball handlers, Roy DeWitz and Don Matuszak. K-State defeated Iowa State 64-54 earlier.
By winning, the Cyclones could reach the halfway mark still unbeaten. Every other team in the Big Eight except K-State has lost at least twice.
Strannigan admitted that it would take a great effort to defeat a team like Kansas State but added that his squad was in the best physical condition of the season.
He said that after viewing films of the earlier K-State-Iowa game, he thought his team played well even in defeat.
"I don't know what we're going to have to do, but we're going to have to do something," he said.
Meanwhile, in Manhattan a jubilant Tex Winter said, "Just think, if we can keep from losing another conference game we could play that same against Kansas March 8 just for fun—wouldn't that be something"
