Official blew K-State call
Even amateur detectives know enough to solve a mystery you've got to begin by.
So I return you to Allen Field House last Saturday afternoon where 16,138 witnesses observed a basketball game between Bakersfield and K State. K State was declared the winner, 88-63.
The first noteworthy piece of evidence came with 35 seconds to play when KU center Ken Koenigs both ends of a one-and-one from the free throw line to tie the score, 83-43, after being fouled by K-State's Curtis Redding.
The Wildcats then used a time out to set up their inbounds play, Kansas coach Ted Owens used this opportunity to substitute guard Milt Gibson on defense for forward Donnie Von Moore to pressure K-State with a full-court press.
MIKE EVANS wasn't able to get the ball to an open man within the required five seconds and the ball was turned over to the Jayhawks. The timekeeper, however, allowed two seconds to click off the clock when a desperation pass by Evans was put into play in time. The clock then incorreally indicated 33 seconds remaining.
It became Ken Koenings' turn to inbound the ball against the Wildcats' pressure defense and he, unable to find an open man after three seconds, signaled for a time out. That was the mistake that proved to be fatal, but it needn't have been.
rule book, a false double foul occurs when fouls are committed by both teams, the second of which occurs before the clock is over. A rulebook says "After the last free throw following a false double foul, the ball shall be thrown to jump at center between any two opponents."
Koenigs' error was that KU had already used its four allotted time outs that half. Cameron's carry immediately, correctly, signaled to be charged against Kansas, Redding, who hit 12-of-12 from the line, netted the free throw putting the Wildcats in the lead by 67.
So the final 35 seconds of the game could be replayed with the score reset to read 84-8 in favor of the Wildcats. But, since this is college basketball and not pro ball, it is unlikely the 16,138 will return to their places to witness the game's just conclusion.
BEFORE GOING further, let's reassemble the time span of all this activity. Although the clock indicated two seconds had elapsed, the ball was officially dead from the moment Redding fouled Koenigs as it was never successfully inbounded by either team. Therefore, no time was to have elapsed throughout the incidents.
Following Redding's free throw, Overby awarded K-State the ball as part of normal procedures following a technical foul. This injury should have been there, and there should have been a bump ball.
According to Bernie Saggau, Big Eight
when we had only one time out left that the next one would be the last one. If there was something said in the last time out I don't remember."
Explain Keenings' time out call, Owens said, "It's like when you're on ice and you start to skid. What aren't you supposed to do?" "Well, don't forget about the time what do you do anyway?"
"So we condition our men, who throw the ball in, to count to three and if they can't find an open man—get a time out. So Ken was conditioned to do what he did."
What really happened was a false double foul had been committed. According to the
Owens then said he planned to "make several points clear with the com-
The KU women's basketball team has the distinction of playing the first women's basketball game ever in Kansas City, Mo. His team was against Northwest Missouri State University.
Women play in Kemper tonight
"This game will enhance our program tremendously in exposure and recruiting." Washington said. "We can show the fans in the K.C. area the quality of our program and help recruit players in that area to attend KU."
Women's coach Marian Washington said she was looking forward to the game tonight because it would give Kansas City fans a chance to see her team in action.
NEXT YEAR KU will be in charge of arranging the game at Kemper, Washington said, because officials there were injured and basketball teams in the area more exposed.
Washington said that Kemper Arena officials offered NWMS the first chance to
play and requested that its opponent come from the Big Eight Conference. KU was the first team to win a national title.
Janet Cooksey, who is averaging 14.8 points per game and needs only 58 points more to take over the NWMS single season scoring record. Trish VanOos雀斯 is second in scoring and leads in rebounding with 13.5 points and 11.3 rebounds.
"I'm confident that we will make a good show of ourselves against NWMS," she said. "We should match up with them well, and we would outdoor shooters, which we must stop."
Center Adrian Mitchell remains the top scorer for KU with a 14.1 per game average. Forwards June Koleber and Sue Berens scored 13, 13 and 10 points per game respectively.
The Barkertiers are 15-8 on the season and hold a 2-4 edge over the Jayhawks this winter.
Tamara Flarup, women's sports information director, said tickets were still available for the 6 p.m. contest. The ticket price includes both the KU-NWMS game and the Kansas City Kings-Phoenix Suns professional basketball game.
NWMS is led in scoring by 5-10 forward

Gary Vice
Conference supervisor of basketball officials, he and Overby have discussed the game and have determined that Overby goofed.
Sagaua also said that in normal false double foul situations, two shots instead of one would have been awarded the second team (K-State) shooting free throws. Otherwise, it could be advantageous to a team without the ball to seek a false double foul, lose one point, and have an opportunity to win the iumba ball.
"WITH MY interpretation of the rule books," Saggaan said this morning in a telephone interview, "there should have been one free throw and then a jump ball."
"The reason Kansas State should have shot only one free throw," Sagau said, "was because it wasn't to KU's advantage to commit the second foul as they had the ball."
The ignoble honor of that second foul belongs to Koenig, who said, "I am as sorry as I can be that it happened. I should have waited the time out; it was my responsibility."
OWENS SAID the team was told they had no time outs remaining and Saggua said Overby contends he told Koenigs when he banded him the ball.
Koenigs said, "I knew earlier in the game

According to Saggaun, KU's opportunity to have the mistake rectified is over.
the only recourse they had was right at the game to ask for an audience with the referee at the table, "Saggaau said. 'They missed it and it's gone by.'"

All of which afforded Koenigs only a hollow chuckle when he said, "I guess the really messed up about as much as I did."

Each year the Office of Admissions and Records sponsors a Conference which brings to the campus high school principals and counselors and community college personnel for a program of academic and student affairs presentations. Students who are freshmen or with their former students who are freshmen or community college transfers.
Students attending the afternoon meetings will be excused from attendance in any classes between 2:00 and 3:00 p.m. on the 16th. The following high schools and community colleges will be attending the Conference and have indicated an interest in visiting with their former students in the Kansas Union.
The Office of Admissions and Records invites interested students to take part in this year's Conference. It will be an excellent opportunity to discuss your preparation for K.U., how well you have met the academic challenge of the academic programs, and your concerns for the future here. Your participation also helps the University build a stronger relationship with your former school, and provides information about making your K.U. experience a more meaningful one for you.
