Walk-ons finally play in KU laugher
By KEVIN BERTELS
Sports Writer
Guys like David Magill and Body Neal spend a lot of time on the bench as freshmen, appearing only when the game was either well in hand or simply of the hand. They know the plight of the substitute.
Saturday night against Oral Roberts, the opportunity arose for the substitutes to play when Kansas blew out the Titans in the second game. Mugley, Neal and the rest of KU top seven players on the team, but the Red Team, as the reserves are called in practice. All were pleased with what they saw.
They saw Jeff Konek, a freshman guard, score 2 points and provide some fancy ballhandling. They saw Mark Summers, a sophomore junior college transfer, score a basket. They saw every player on KU's bench play, down to the last walk-on.
AFTER THE GAME, a 90-68 KU victory, few of the regulars would talk about their personal performances. All were excited about the substitutes' play.
"They deserve a chance to play," Neal said. "It is a good feeling to do them well."
Magley gave a bit further in defining the role of the substitute.
"They hit some shots that were just beautiful." he said. "Those guys play the bench role well, waiting until they get a chance to play, keeping fired up and playing hard in practice. It's just beautiful that they got to play. They deserve a lot of credit. They are the heart of the team."
The "heart of the team" should get the chance to play a bit more in tonight's game at Allen Field House against Morehead State. Tipoff is at 7:35 p.m.
MOREIEAD STATE will bring a team unin defeated in four games to Lawrence. The Eagles won their own tournament, the Eagle Classic, Saturday night defeatning Tennessee State 88-80.
Their top player thus far has been junior guard Glenn Napier, who scored 30 points in the first game of the Eagle Classic on 9-19 shooting, mostly from the 20-to-30-foot range.

"It will be a problem for them that they play Friday and Saturday and then travel here," KU Head Coach Ted Owens said. "That will be tough for them and it should be an advantage for us. 1 team, we are for Ohio Valley Conference teams. They come in without notetaker and play really well."
Saturday night's game against Oral Robers was surprisingly easy. Gary "Cat" Johnson, the Teens 4-50th speedster, sat out much of the game and scored four scorched Oral Robbers 48-35 and shot 67 percent.
TITAN COACH Ken Hayes wasn't say why

needed him more.
"I'm not painting the finger at our guards, but I'm unhappy with our offensive options," he said. "I've got to find somebody with discipline

KU's next opponent, Morehead State, has been a slowdown team, relying on the shooting ability of Napier to make the offense work. If his shooting is off the Engles will go to any of the other three returning players from last season, 6-foot-2 junior guard Norris Beckley, 6-foot-6 junior forward Greg Coldron and 6-foot-6 sonhombre forward Eddie Childress.
Louisville plays K-State in Manhattan Jan. 3 and Missouri in Louisville Jan. 18.
All scored in double figures in the Eagles' victory in their tournament as did the two post men, starter Jeff Tipton, a 6-10-four freshman and backup Albert Spencer, a 6-10-four senior. If they are tired, Owens expects, their problem will be compounded by a lack of proven depth.

where even the torturers have their own labor union.
English, has been busy soliciting title recommendations from English faculty members. He said that although the list was useful as a Christmas guide, its value is limited to "encourage people to read new works with merit that aren't too widely known."
From page 9
"You won't find too many of these recommended authors on the Today show."
"It's a guild, actually," Gunn said, "and they practice their craft with certain skill and good practices and knowledge. They get here from orphanages, if I remember correctly."
James Gunn, professor of English and author of several works of science fiction, recommends Ursula Le Guin's "The Left Hand of Darkness." The book describes a world in which the natives have an "unorthodox sexual arrangement," Guinn said.
"Gethenians have the capability to be either male, female, or neither," he said.
Gethenians have sex only during their period of "kemmer," Gunn said, a condition not unlike a animal estrus or "heat."
FOR HIS PART, Carothers is more concerned with strikeouts than with space stations. A devout baseball fan, he recommends the Baseball Enclocvedonia.
"When one Gethenian in kemmer meets another, one of them automatically assumes the role of female, and the other the role of male. All Gethenians can either father or bear children, but most of the time they are neither sex."
Gunn also recommends "The Shadow of the Torturer," by Gene Wolfe, the first installment of a planned tetralogy. The book portrays a highly specialized society
“It’s a real desert island book in baseball fans,” Carothers said, speaking under the benevolent gaze of an enormous poster. He keeps the Babe in his office, aloose from attention at St. Louis Cardinals and a baseball autographed by KU writers-in-residence.
The Encyclopedia is not for casual baseball fans, Carothers warned.
"When we meet someone, we assign them a stereotyped role, a sexual role, concerning what we can expect of them. On Gethen this doesn't happen. Gethienus respond to each other differently," Gunn said.
"It's absolutely incomprehensible to the lukewarm baseball fan. It's 2,000 pages of statistics on everyone who's ever played major league baseball, from Babe Ruth to Tc Cobb to Charles Victory Faust," he said.
IN THIS WAY, Gunn said, Le Guin points out the perversiveness of sexism in our culture, "sometimes in ways that we don't understand or notice."
Carothers also recommends "Winnie the Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner," by A.A. Milne.
ONE OF PROFESSOR Richard Hardin's recommendations is Erasmus "The Praise of Folly" which he needs to be read "now more than ever."
"Each of the Pooh characters has an archetypal human characteristic. Piglet's怒器 is bouncy. Eeyore gloomy. Pooh—oh, muddled." Caradherns said with a chuckle.
In the book, the main character, Folly,
praises herself as the force that makes the
world go round.
Harding thinks the book is particularly appropriate because "there's a lot of folly around these days."
