NOIfMAN, Okla., Dec. 1,
Oklahoma's Roundball Runts
learneil last season that no matter
how sinartly a small team ma
neuverk. a rebound is still imoor
tant i;n basketball and tall guys
shag yby far the most of them.
Ccmsequently Coach Bruce
Drake is doing lots of hard work
thee days with taller boys on his
Sooner squad, fellows like Doug
Lyn, 6-foot 8-inch freshman
from Henryetta high school, Paul
Courty, 6-foot 3-inch navy dis
chartfee who subbed last year for
the Norman Navy Skyjackets,
Tom Wheeler, 6-foot 4-inch fresh
man from Oklahoma City Foster
high school and Burrell Lewis,
6-foot 2-inch freshman from
Tulsa Central high school.
Oklahoma returns most of her
diminutive leltermen who won
half their Big Six Conference
games last year and tied for third
in the league race. Obviously,
they won't rise any higher this
season against opponents who are
rapidly returning to peacetime
strength with the return of ex
perienced players who have been
away to war.
So far, Oklahoma hasn't gained
from the hordes of returning war
veterans a single letterman in
either football or basketball.
The nine lettermen back from
Oklahoma's Lilliputians of last
year are Jack Landon, all-Big Six
Conference guard of last year,
Harold "Scooter" Hines, Bill
Whaley, Howard Brinegar, Don
Buelow, Lemont Eltinge, Don
Krouse, Ed Lindenberg and
Winston Potts. Can they go
against the stars'of 1942, back for
more schooling and more basket
ball after three years of fighting
overseas;
