Basketball season nears for Big Eight champions
The KU basketball defending Big Eight champion team will be minus 64.4 per cent of its 1965-66 scoring punch when the season opens Dec. 1 against Arkansas at Fayetteville.
But confident coach Ted Owens says the Jayhawks will have a good basketball team, at least physically comparable to last year's team which went to the finals of the Midwest regionals before losing to Texas Western, 81-80, in double overtime.
Speaking at the annual basketball photo-interview session last night at the Virginia Inn, Owens admitted, however, the team will miss its graduates.
MISSING FROM a team that won 25 and lost four is All-America center Walt Wesley, forward Al Lopes, guard Del Lewis and sixth man Riney Lochmann.
Owens said there are eight sophomores on his 13-member team. But he quickly pointed out four veterans who were involved in the 1965-66 conference race -Jo White, Bob Wilson, Ron Franz and Rodger Bohnestiehl.
LUCK NO BETTER
LIGHTER WATER
ELY. Nev. ---(UPI)--- County Clerk Boyd Smith had his car struck by other vehicles six times in five years while parked in front of his home. So he moved it in front of a church down the block.
Four years went by without incident so Smith, assuming his luck had changed, moved the car back in front of his house. It was hit by a truck and extensively damaged that same day.
"To win or contend for the championship, we will have to show great improvement. During the first week of practice," Owens said, "this team showed the finest effort of any since I've been in Kansas (seven years). But they have tailed off recently."
IN ADDITION to Arkansas, non-conference competition includes games against Xavier, Ohio State, Florida State, Baylor, University of Pacific, Texas Western, St. John's and play in the Big Eight tournament.
At this time, Owens is worried about inexperience and KU's inability to be an effective rebounding team.
"One of the big factors in our winning last year was team rebounding. We had a rebounding percentage of 58 or 57 per cent." Owens explained.
The Jayhawks will concentrate on getting to the boards in the next few weeks. "We can't tell how we're going to respond, until we play," Owens said.

ASKED TO GIVE a tentative starting lineup. Owens said Vernon Vanoy, 6-8, 235-pound sophomore will be at center; Franz, 6-7, 205-pound senior, forward; and White, 6-3, 190-pound sophomore, guard.
Working at the other guard position is Phil Harmon, Pat Davis and Bruce Sloan. Bohnestiehl and Wilson, who is about 15 pounds underweight due to pneumonia, are battling for the other forward slot.
