Jayhawks Ready for Rough Road Trip
Heading into one of the toughest road swings in Kansas history—a three game tour in the east—Coach Ted Owens has earmarked his new backline starter, Al Lopes, for part-time duty at forward.
That's the spot at which the 6-5 Portuguese earned his All-American accolade at Coffeyville Junior College a year ago. But he has opened all five Jayhawk starts this winter in an unaccustomed spot at guard. He's handled it well too, but that isn't the problem of the moment as Owens sights a wicked trident of Cincinnati (Thursday), Maryland (Saturday) and St. John's (Monday).
"I am not disturbed about our comparatively light scoring at forward (Rinsey Lochmann, Fred Chana and Ron Franz are averaging 17.8
between them)," Owens said i.d. "Against Loyola, for instance, when Walt (Center Wesley) was moving with as much freedom as he did (42-points worth) there was no purpose in our not playing to him.
"I KNOW THERE will be times when we'll need to play Lopes at forward. Any time we have a quick, fast forward to cover will be one occasion. Another will be when we need more overall speed and quickness to pressure them on defense."
Lopes is being readied to move up for any one of the three forwards now playing. His backline spot opposite Del Lewis went up for grabs this week between two senior veterans, Kerry Bolton and Dave Schichte, plus sophomore Pat Davis.
THE JAYHAWKERS will carry a 3-2 mark east. But they could be 5-0 with just seven more points, having bowed to Northwestern, 55-58, and to Penn State, 48-50, after leading into the final two minutes in the opening leg of the Sunflower Doubleheader at Manhattan last Friday.
Owens is cautiously optimistic. "I don't feel there is a single game on this trip which we're not capable of winning," he said. "But we've got to play hard with a minimum of errors."
The opposition will be rugged, showing a combined 7-4 record prior to Maryland's Friday night encounter with Wake Forest.

Lawson Named Track Captain
John Lawson was named captain of next year's cross country team, and Gene McClain was given the title of honorary captain of this year's freshman squad at a Cross Country banquet held in the Kansas Union Tuesday. Bernard Frazier was the guest speaker.
Members of the Jayhawk Big Eight championship team were awarded gold track shoes. KU has 41 consecutive conference wins to their credit. The presentation was made by coach Bill Easton.
Harold Hadley, this year's captain, and Bill Silverberg, both seniors, will be the only members of the team not returning next year. In addition, John Donner, Jose Contreras, Bob Boyd and Steve Silverberg, Bill's younger brother, not participating this year, will be eligible for next year's team.
FRAZIER, BETTER known as "Fogo" Frazier to sports' fans of an
older generation, carved his mark on the 1927-29 Jayhawk distance teams. Frazier, who ran at 104 pounds and continuously broke records, took the then Big Six championship for the indoor two-mile with 9:54.3 and shattered many more records.
He graduated in 1929 with a degree in architecture, and is currently professor of architecture and sculpture in residence here. He has received five professional awards at last count and sculptured the KU Campanile doors.
The freshman team was also honored. They had an 11 win, no loss record with eight sweeps, including the conference sweep.
