Freshmen Finally Fall
By Russ Corbitt (Sports Editor)
The high-scoring KU freshman basketball team ran into a bunch of shooters with even hotter hands, and suffered its first defeat of the season, 74-66, at the hands of the Missouri freshmen here last night.
KU, who hit for 78 and 77 points the victories over Chanute and Arkansas City junior colleges, hit a cold spell last night. The junior Jayhawks connected on only eight field goal attempts in the first half, and trailed, 38-25, at intermission.
Missouri, on the other hand, hit with deadly accuracy from the field. David Bennett led the torrid attack with six of nine field goal attempts in the first half.
THINGS EVENED out a little in
the second period, but MU still finished with a 43.3 percentage from the field and 73.5 per cent from the free throw line. KU was 36.6 from the floor and 46.1 from the stripe.
Bennett finished with 19 points, tying for game honors with KU's John Carter, who again led the Jayhawk scorers. George Yarnevich chipped in with 17 for KU. Jayhawker Bo Harris and Tigers Willie Lee and Tim Marting each hit 13.
KU did not get on the scoreboard until Carter hit a field goal with 17:47 left in the first half. The Jayhawkers never had the lead, as Missouri utilized Bennett's 12 points to forge to a 29-13 lead during the first 12 minutes.
Swimmers Host Wildcats At Robinson Tomorrow
The KU swimming team will host Kansas State in a varsity dual meet at 3 p.m. tomorrow at Robinson Pool.
The Jayhawks, pre-season picks to push Oklahoma for the Big Eight title, dropped both ends of a double dual meet against Nebraska and Iowa last weekend.
Kansas State enters the meet with one victory this season, a 58-37 decision over Washington of St. Louis, in the Wildcats' only previous outing.
KU's loss to Nebraska was the first conference dual meet defeat for the Jayhawks in two seasons. They went through last season undefeated, and finished runner-up to Oklahoma in the Big Eight meet.
The Jayhawks will face the big test early, when they host the Sooners Jan. 23.
CARTER HELPED narrow it to 31-19, but the teams traded baskets several times, and the Tigers took a 13-point lead to the dressing room at halftime.
The Jayhawks began nipping away at the lead during the second period. Carter hit a two-pointer at 11:47 to cut the MU lead to 48-40.
But then KU would hit a field goal, only to turn around and give Missouri two points on a one-and-one foul. The Tigers built the lead back up to 16 points, 74-58, with 2:17 left, but KU hit eight straight points to make the final margin eight.
"WE JUST didn't play well at all tonight," KU Coach Bob Mulcahy said in summing up the performance. "I feel we didn't get a 100 per cent effort all the time from some of the boys."
Rodger Bohnenstiehl, who lost his starting spot because of an injured ankle, got into the game and tallied six points before reinjuring his ankle in the first half.
"Rodger hurt us by not being able to play more of the game," Mulcahy said. "We were making a run for them with him in there, but when he hurt his ankle, the trainer said not to play him the second half."
Missouri is now 3-1, with the only loss at the hands of St. Louis. KU now has a 2-1 record.
The freshmen will take the court again Jan. 23 against Parsons junior college. The game will be at 3:45 p.m. in Allen Field House, following the KU-Iowa State varsity game to be played at 1:30 p.m.
Jayhawks Set Sights For Iowa State Again
The KU Jayhawks will be gunning for their 11th season victory and their second over the Iowa State Cyclones when the two teams take the court at Ames tomorrow evening.
KU, now 2-1 in conference play, hung a 72-55 defeat on the Cyclones in the first round of the Big Eight Tournament, as Al Lopes led the way with 17 points.
The Jayhawks are now 10-4 for the season. Iowa State is 4-9 on the season and 1-2 in the conference with a victory over Oklahoma and two losses to Oklahoma State, one in overtime.
THE JAYHAWKS ran up seven consecutive victories before losing at Colorado Monday. On paper, it appears KU should have little trouble starting another winning streak at Ames. But Coach Ted Owens is not overly optimistic.
KU Wrestlers In 4-Team Meet
KU will be one of four Big Eight schools competing in a triple dual wrestling meet tomorrow at Stillwater, Okla. In the afternoon-evening program, the Jayhawks will encounter Kansas State, Nebraska and defending national champion Oklahoma State.
KU will take on Kansas State and Oklahoma State in six-minute afternoon bouts, and will meet Nebraska in the night session which will consist of regulation nine-minute matches.
The OSU Cowboys have competed in 59 consecutive duals without a loss. They have not lost since late in the 1959 season, although there have been two ties.

CHEVROLET- As roomy a car as Chevrolet's ever built. Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe

So, besides the way a '65 Chevrolet looks and rides, we now have one more reason to ask you: What do you get by paying more for a car-except bigger monthly payments?

"We felt after seeing Iowa State that on any given night they can beat any club in the league." Owens said. "They are excellent shooters and play a control style of basketball.
"When they get an early lead on a team, Iowa State can control the tempo of the game. I thinfl Al Koch is as good a basketball player as there is in the conference."
Koch is the Cyclone scoring leader with an average of 17.5.
Forward Riney Lochmann remains the Jayhawks' top percentage shooter with a 53.8 percentage from the field, and 71.4 per cent from the free throw line.
Owens will have the Big Eight scoring leader on his side in the person of Walt Wesley. The 6-11 junior center is averaging 20.3 points for the Jayhawks, and leads the league with a 24.7 clip in conference games. He also leads the team in rebounds with 121.
