Knicks charging nearer to NBA's Eastern lead
(by United Press International)
(6) United States International)
Dave DeBusche is a selfless man who doesn't mind making Willis Reed a potential MVP in the National Basketball Association.
"Willis is unbeatable when he spins and sends up that soft shot," DeBusschere exclaimed last night after the Knicks beat the Philadelphia 76ers. 121-101.
The mutual admiration society—with Reed the party of the second part—retorted: "We couldn't be doing it without Dave."
DeBusschere, whose best previous effort as a Knick was 26 points, hit from all angles in the season's series finale with Philadelphia as he scored a game-high 38 points.
The victory pushed the Knicks to within a game of second-place Philadelphia in the Eastern Division and left them just three games back of pacesetting Baltimore.
Bill Cunningham led Philadelphia with 23 points.
Los Angeles routed Detroit, 137-101. Chicago downed Atlanta, 102-90 and San Diego beat Phoenix, 116-106 in other NBA games.
The Indiana Pacers soared to within four percentage points of first place in the Eastern Division of the American Basketball Association last night on the wings of a club record 46-point performance by Roger Brown.

Brown, who connected on 15 of 29 shots from the floor and
16 of 19 free throws, led the Pacers to a 122-112 victory over the New York Nets. It was the Pacers' seventh straight triumph, establishing a club record and moving them into a virtual first-place tie with idle Kentucky.
Mel Daniels aided the Indiana cause with 22 points while Willie Somerset led the Nets with 24.
Art Heyman's 20-foot jump shot in the final second of play gave the Minnesota Pipers a 130-120 decision over the Houston Mavericks. Heyman's game-winning basket came after Bob Verga's three-point goal tied the game at 128-128 with 35 seconds to go.
Tom Washington had 30 points for the Pipers and Verga had 42 for Houston.
Oakland failed in its try to clinch the Western Division title. The Oaks fell victim to the hot shooting of Larry Miller, who scored his career high of 47 points to lead Los Angeles to a 131-115 victory. Oakland needs one more ABA triumph to wrap up the crown.

Jon Martin
Where Is The Friendliest Service In Town?
At the Stables!!!! Why? Because KU students like Jon Martin serve you nightly. This Leawood junior majoring in advertising has been feeling a little far out since the Missouri football game when he was trampled after singing the famous Rock Chalk Chant while sitting in the Tiger student section. Has since developed a keen interest in girl's ear lobes and knee caps. Is currently gathering evidence to start a public investigation into rumors that this year's Rock Chalk Revue was rigged. Jon's key witness is Dangerous Don Doudna, former house boy at a campus fraternity, who swears he heard various members of the winning team making a deal with R.C. officials the night before final judging was held. Jon also intends to probe into unconfirmed reports that Communist agitators (or K-State alumni) have arrived on the Haskell campus to stir them up against "the white settlers on da hill." After graduation wants to become an underground movie producer in Tijuna, Mexico. Any girls interested in screen tests can contact Jon at . . .
