Food First For Frosh After Win
In the locker room after Wednesday's game with Coffeyville, the freshmen quietly undressed, showered, and relaxed after eating a post-game meal of two sandwiches, an apple, and a chocolate malt.
KU's high scorer, 6-8 forward Don Ross, who scored 22 points on eleven field goals, said he was thinking about the game all day.
"SINCE IT WAS my first college game, I wanted to do well. I was worried at first but not nervous. I came to play basket-ball," said the 200-pound Waterloo, Iowa freshman.

Yet Vernon Vanoy, Republic, Mo., said he was very nervous during the first five minutes. He couldn't control his first shots because of sweating hands.
"After my first few baskets (19:25 and 16:04 of the first half), I calmed down and gained confidence. Once we took the lead (16-14 at 13:27), I knew we were going all the way," said the 6-7, 235-pound center. He scored six baskets and four foul shots for 16 points.
WHILE EATING an orange, second-year Coach Bob Mulcahy said the team worked hard for the victory. The freshmen knew nothing about Coffeyville before the game.
With a 46-28 halftime lead, he told the freshmen they could be doing a better job. At halftime, the freshmen didn't make any team changes, offensively or defensively.
"A few of the men were making defensive mistakes and we tried to correct them," Mulcahy said.
He said the freshmen will have to work and improve their detense before Monday's game against Missouri at Columbia.
THE FRESHMEN PLAYED a tight man-to-men defense they worked on during practice. By constantly applying pressure, Coffeyville did not have much opportunity to work the ball inside. They made 25 of 66 shots for 37 per cent.
Midway in the first half, Coffeville was scoreless for four minutes. After guard John Morgan made a foul shot tying the score 14-14 at 13:44, Coffeville didn't score until forward Rich Mabion hit a foul shot three minutes later. At that time, KU led 23-15.
FOR THE NEXT SEVEN minutes and 39 seconds, Coffeville scored nine points, KU 19, to make it 42-24. During that scoring spree, Vanoy scored 7, Rich Thomas and Joseph White 4 each, and single baskets by Jim Tibbettis and Howard Arndt.
KU pulled down 43 rebounds, Coffeville 41. Ross had 9 rebounds and Arndt, White, and Bruce Sloan. 7 apiece.
In defeating Coffeville, 87-64, the freshmen hit 36 of 80 shots for 45 per cent, 15 of 29 foul shots for 51 per cent.
Beating any team by this score is acceptable said Mulcahe. However, we will play better, he said.
U.S. Condemned
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. — (UPI)— The Soviet Union today condemned U.S. "agression" in Viet Nam and pledged political, economic and military support to "the Vietnamese people."
Soviet Ambassador Nikolai T. Fedorenko delivered the Kremlin's reply to the latest Western peace overtures in the 117-nation Main Political Committee of the General Assembly.
He said Russia "fully supports" the four points laid down by North Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh for peace in the country, which included an end to U.S. bombing and the withdrawal of all American troops from Viet Nam.
