Nobles shines in starting role
By ERIC MARTINCICH
University Daily Kansan
Last year Herb Nobles started only eight games for the University of Kansas, but now his days as a Jayhawk reserve appear over.
Nobles started at forward last night and scored 25 points in an 81-66 victory over Murray State, equaling a personal high set last year in a victory over Boise State.
This year, as a starter, Nobles is playing with the confidence that he lacked last season.
"It gives me a lot more confidence when the coach has confidence in me," Nobles said after last night's game. "I get my confidence and that's all it takes."
NOBLES, WHO transferred from Johnson County Community College before last season, had 11 rebounds, six assists and 7 blocks to go along with his game high 25 points.
His scoring beyday was capped by a 14-point spurt with five minutes left in the first half, which broke open what was a fairly close contest.
"Couch (Ted Owens) told me not to turn down any open shots," the 7-6 Senior said. "I just felt that I had a little advantage on my team, and I was able to take him to the post and score."
Nobles, who had 18 points at halftime, hit 10 of the 15 shots from the field.
WITH JUST two personal fools, Nobles was the only big man for the Jayhawks to watch.
Nobles was used extensively by Owens setting up only two rests throughout the day.
"We can't afford to have Hare in foul trouble or in being an attacker for our both size and quickness."
"We need to work on conditioning," he added. "Towards the second half, every once in a while we get prized.

NGOV coaches pressed Murray
state coach Pred Overton.
"Nobles played a whale of a game," he said. "I actually pitched the first half burned the game completely."
Nobles said that KU wouldn't rely on any one individual this season.
"We've got too good of a team to have only one man scoring." he said.
KANAS CITY, MO. (AP) - Earle Bruce,
a cynical basketball sports writers probably
really like the game.
Bruce named Coach of the Year
But first, congratulations on taking Iowa State to its finest season in many years. Your Cyclones, who had gone 4-7 your first three seasons there, were picked to finish seventh or last in the Big Eight this year. But you guided them to an 83 season and molded one of the most exciting, productive offenses in the nation.
And you were an overwhelming choice as the Associated Press Bight Election Conference
It's pete's justice that many of us who voted you that honor were there late last summer as conference Skywriters when you told your Hula Bowl story.
"What are you going to have to do in win at Iowa State?" a Skewerler asked.
at Iowa State," a Skywriter asked. "Let me tell you about an experience I had as one of the coaches in the Hula Bowl last year." he said.
Bruce paced back and forth as he spoke, a squat, intense figure.
"I wanted to really get with those kids, to look inside them and find out what made them like me. I wanted to find out from practice. I wanted to find out what made them the best football players in the country. And I found out. You know what made those kids believe? Those kids believed they were the best.
"They really believed they were better than anybody else. That's what we've got to do in Iowa State. We've got to believe we're better than anybody else."
A polite silence, more than anything else,
greeted your address, Earle.
But you showed us, didn't you? You beat everybody on your schedule except Colorado, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, the three teams who tied for the Big Eight championship, and you played them tough. You showed your players, too.

Terry Miller, Oklahoma State's great
junior running back who led the league in rushing, scoring and all-purpose running, was a unanimous choice in all ballots received as offensive player of the year. Cete Pillen, Nebraska's senior linebacker, was named defensive player of the year.
The offensive and defensive newcomer awards went to Thomas Lott, Oklahoma quarterback, and John Corker, 17-year-old freshman linebacker at Oklahoma State.

KANSAS CITY (AP) - Bobby Smith powered a four-shorter surge that pulled Cleveland even at the end of regulation play and scored six more points in overtime to keep the Kansas City Kings last night in National basketball Association action.
Kings blow lead, game
Kansas City led throughout the game and carried a 12-point lead going into the final quarter, but Cleveland held the Kings without a basket for the final 4-24.
Dick Snyder missed a closing jump shot, but Jim Brewer made the follow shot with one second left to send the game into overtime.
In the extra session, the Cavaliers were never behind after grabbing a quick six-pin.
