Eastern Trip
Colorado's basketball squad
treks 'eastward this week, playing
games with Bradley and Michigan
and ending its longest road trip of
the reason in the Big Seven con
ference tourney at Kansas City.
The Buffs meet Bradley to
night at Peoria and Michigan
Saturday at Ann Arbor before
returning to the Kansas City
meet. That annual conference
affair runs Wednesday through
Saturday of next week.
All legs of the 12-day trip will
be made by air with Bebe L.ee ana
his 14-man traveling squad leav
ing Denver Wednesday morning.
They return home on December
30.
Players making; the trip are:
John Amaya, Don Branby. Art
Bunte, Bruce Conway, Frank
Gompert, Burdette Haldorsom,
Tom Harrold, Ralph Karst. Ken
Koop. Bob Lawson, Ken Munns,
Jim Ranglos, Bob Stewart, and
Bob Yardley. .
Lee, Assistant Coach Russell
Walseth and Manager Bob Todd
will also accompany the team.
This week's contests will be
Colorado's first with Bradley and
its second with Michigan. Colo
rado opened wfth the Wolverines
here three years ago and won,
47-38.
Lee figures rough evenings
on tap for both of the road
games with Bradley posting a
32-6 mark from a year ago and
Michigan again on the upswing
after a second division finish in
the Big Ten last winter.
The Braves already have
knocked off Minnesota at Minne
apolis and the Gophers in turn
juggled national ratings by up
setting No. 1 Kentucky.
Lee prsently la more con
cerned with his team shooting
than comparative scores, figur
ing Buff percentages "have
fallen far below the pace needed
to win games."
"We can't expect to win against
tough competition unless we hit
well up in the thirties," Lee
points out. "We've been getting
40 points a game when good
shooting should get us 60."
The Buffs opened with a 36
per cent snooting average
agitinst Wichita and have fallen
short of the 30 mark since with
v percentages of 21.4, 27.6, 27
and 21 in their next four games.
"In this modern day basketball,
few defenses limit teams to 40
points, and ours is no exception
we've got to get points our-
selves," Lee warned.
He plans to stick with his
same five starter for the Brad
ley game, but will make
switches if the scoring doesn't
Improve. These five presently
top Buff scorers Frank Gom- .
pert, 44 points, and Bob Yard
ley, 40, at forwards; Art Bunte,
41, center; John Amaya, 35, and
Tom Harrold, 34, guards.

Coach Phor An Mnnil-
ball artists were having a rather
hard time of it In the second
quarter, when they were able
to collect only 13 points. Ragged
passing and poor shooting had
the fans howling with glee.
Then the laughter ceased and
the slaughter began. The Jay
hawks DOUred it nn and want
away trapping the Owls. It was
me sixm win lor the Jayhawks
this season.
Clyde Lovellette had an av
erage day by hitting nine
buckets and six gratus tosses for
24 tallies. This brings the all
American's record up to 167
points scored thus far in the
season. He has averaged 27.8
points for six games.
Coach Allen used b?s fi-rct
stringers sparingly during the
game and allowed a total of 15
men to get into the fray. Con
spicuous for his absence again was
Charlie Hoag, all-around Jay
hawk athlete.
The Sunflower boys certainly
proved their press clippings
were fallacious. The Jayhawks
are currently riding in the As
sociated Press seventh place
spot in national ranking.
The Oklahoma Sooners found
out what it was like to play the
nation's best basketball quin
tet, according to the AP ratings,
when they bucked heads with
the University of Illinois and
lost, 69-51.

Despite their inability to claim
a championship, the Cornhuskers
have made several tournament
records which are likely to remain
intact.
In 1949, the Huskers defeated
Iowa State 85-67, establishing a
single game point record for j
both an individual team and a
came. The Scarlet's feat of
vvuiltcuug (,JI fjuinis in "C
1949 tourney, an average of 69
points per game, also set a new
mark.
Bob Pierce, holder of the Corn
husker scoring record, owns the
tournament record for most free
throws in a tourney career.
Pierce, now in his freshman year
with Philips Oilers, toed the free
throw line 31 times through the
1948-'49-'50 tournaments to es
tablish a record.
Bob Cerv, Nebraska Univer
sity's contribution to the New
York Yankee baseball team,
holds the rather dubious honor
of having fouled 36 times
through 1946-'47-'48-'49.
In the all-time individual scor
ing race, former Hnslrer m-eat
Bus Whitehead, trails Pierce by
one point. Pierce is in ninth spot
with 87 points in nine games.
Whitehead scored 63 points
in the 1949 tournament to gar
ner fifth spot in single tourney
statistics. Pierce is in seventh
place with 54 markers in the I
1950 tourney.
