B
ig 8 basketball may
take Kansas bounce
by Randy York
Assistant Sports Editor
" Basketball, quite naturally,
depends on the way the ball
bounces. And if the ball takes
a Kansas bounce this season,
don't be surprised.
Jayhawk Coach Ted Owens
could understandably hang a
"No Vacancy" sign on the
door of Allen Field House, but
he's the kind of coach who
relishes all competitive
situations.
AND EVEN though six of
KU's top seven players return
from last season's National
Invitation Tournament
finalists, the starting package
is not neatly wrapped.
Consider Owens' dilemma:
Dave Nash (6-10), Phil
Harmon (6-4), Bruce Sloan (6
5), Rich Bradshaw (6-3) and
Greg Douglas (6-9) all started
last year at least once for the
22-8 Jayhawks, who placed
second in the Big Eight.
Most valuable merchandise
for Kansas, however, may be
Jo Jo White and Dave
Robisch.
White, an Ail-American who
helped carry the United
States to the Olympic gold
medal in basketball this fall
JoJo
I f .
' 1 'Two I
White
at Mexico City, led Kansas
scorers last season with a 15.3
average. White, however,
completes his collegiate
eligibility after the Jayhawks'
first 18 games.
ROBISCH, a 6-9 lefthander,
averaged 26.f points per
game as a freshman last
season to pep the Jayhawk
frosh to an r record. He is
"destined to become the
(highest scoring forwards in
Kansas history," said Jay
Simon, Kansas Sports In
formation Director.
The biggest question mark
for Kansas is the effect of
White's departure after 18
games. A newcomer who
could play an important role,
according" to Simon, is Tim
Natsues, a junior college
transfer from Fresno (Calif.)
City College. The 6-2 guard
averaged 23.6 points at
Fresno last winter.
KoDisch s running mate on
the front line last season was
6-10 Roger Brown, second
leading freshman scorer at
14.5. Brown, a pivot, is ex
pected to compete with in
cumbent Nash for the starting
center assignment.
More Kansas depth is
furnished by 6-7 forward
Howard Arndt and 6-2 guard
Rich Thomas, both two-year
lettermen.
OKLAHOMA STATE
While Kansas appears to
return the most talent,
Oklahoma State has the big
gest percentage of its offense
back.
Kansas lost Roger
Bohnenstiehl, its No. two
scorer last year, through
graduation. Bohnenstiehl ac
counted for a sizable share of
the offense which the
Jayhawks has lost.
The Cowboys, however,
return 84 per cent of its of
fensive production as four
starters come back a year
wiser to give Olympic
Basketball Cdach Hank Iba, a
defensive strategist, a large
volume of firepower.
Joe Smith, who averaged 13
points a game last year,
returns. The three other
starters back include Gene
Hawk (11.2) Charles
S a v e 1 1 (7.9) and Bill
Christopher (7.4) S a v e 1 1
Christopher and Smith com
bine to give the Cowboys solid
rebounding strength.
ALTHOUGH 'most of his
scoring punch returns, Iba
said the Cowboys still lack a
big scorer. Amos Thomas,
however, could become this
man. Thomas, a -7 forward,
has been labeled the best
sophomore prospect in a
decade at Oklahoma State,
according to a report from
OSU'i sports infcs-mation of
fice.
Thomas averaged 3 0.9
points a game last season for
the Cowboy frosh. "If he can
keep that desire," Iba said,
unlimited what he
Iba added that
also a strong re-
Eight last year with a 3-11
conference record and a 10-16
overall mark.
However, 15 of the
Cowboys' games last year
were decided by three or
fewer points. Overall, 11
losses were by a total of 20
points, or 1.8 points per loss
NEBRASKA When
team loses Stuart Lantz and
Tom Baack, its two all-time
top scorers, it doesn't take the
Wizard of Oz to tell a person
that Nebraska faces
rebuilding year.
. But Coach Joe Cipriano has
received a few surpise
packages this fall, namely
Tom Bryan and Jim Brooks.
Bryan proved last year he
could score by leading the
freshmen team with a 20.1
average. He has improved his
defense, his inside offensive
moves and has developed an
effective hook shot, according
to Cipriano. What s more
Bryan has become a more
consistent outside shooter.
Brooks, a 6-8 transfer from
Tyler (Tex.) Junior College,
has been operating as the
starting center in fall drills
"He should supply the inside
scoring and board punch we
have been looking for,"
Cipriano said.
THREE 'STARTERS,
forward Bob Grattopp, center
Dale Von Seggern arid guard
Tom Scantlebury return from
last year's squad which tied
for third in the league. Let
termen Ken Cauble and Sam
Martin have been alternating
at one of the guard spots.
Guard Norm Stewart, who
has been holding down the
other first string guard post
in practice, did not play last
year, but he has not been a
surprise to Cipirano. The 6-3

Five other OSU lettermen
reported for fail drills, stam
ping the Cowboys as the most
arperieneced team in the
tonfe'we. Oklahoma State
tied tor fcsvealh in the Big
junior college transfer, a
Husker redshirt last year, has
impressive speed and is a
good scorer, according to
Cipriano.
Leroy Chalk, Tim Allmond
ai.d Cliff Moller will contend
for starting assignments. "We
feel our potential is good,
Cipriano said, "but our suc
cess will depend on how well
our young players jell as a
team."
KANSAS STATE Kansas
State, the 1967 Big Eight
champion, lost 55 per cent of
last year's scoring, but the
Wildcats are still expected to
have a solid contender.
K-State's backcourt duo
account for the Wildcats'
main strength. All-Big Eight
guard Steve Honeycutt and
Jeff Webb, who secured a
starting role late in the
season, are the Wildcat
backcourt aces.
Honeycutt deposited 402
noints last year for a 14.4
average. Webb, although a
late-season starter, still
clicked at a 4.8 pace. Gene
Williams, who hauled down
283 rebounds in '67, also
furnishes offensive strength.
He scored 217 points last year
for a 7.7 average.
MIKE BARBER (6-11) is
the likely candidate to fill the
vacancy created by Nick Pino
(7-2) Terry Snider (6-3)
established an all-t i m e
scoring average record for
the Wildcat freshmen team
wiht a 28.2 norm.
Eddie Smith, a sophomore
who hit at a 19.3 pace as a
freshman, is the key man in
the battle for the open
forward position left by Earl
Seyfert.
I guess you can call it a
new era of basketball at
Kansas State," said new
coach Cotton Fitzsimmons,
"but I hope it is the same old
era of winning."
COLORADO The Buffs
appear to be a most unlikely
contender for the Big Eight
title, but statistics can
deceive.
TViorado lost 75 per cent of
its offensive production with
the graduation of Pat Frink
(18.9), Chuck Williams (18.0),
Mike Rebich (9.0) and Kermit
McMurry (6.4).
But in 7-2 Ron Smith, the
tallest player to ever play in
the Big Eight, the Buffs have
the hardware to reconstruct a
winner.
Nebraska coach Joe
Cipriano predicts Smith will
make the big difference for
CU and said the former high
school All-American will
create defensive problems for
the opposition.
Cliff Meely (6-7,) a front
line performer, adds more
height. The guard position,
led by left-hander Gordy
Tope, should also be strong.
Mike Coleman, who averaged
seven points a game last
year, is the Buffs' highest
returning scorer.
IOWA STATE - The
Cyclones, with four returning
starters back from last year's
team which tied Nebraska for
third place, may create a
whirlwind.
But Iowa State's only
starter lost through graduat
ion happens to be Don Smith,
the Big Eight's leading scorer
last year. Smith is almost
impossible to replace, since
he finished as the con
ference's third all-time scorer
and second in career reboun
ding statistics.
Garfield
Heard
o
Bill Cain, 1967's Big Eight
Sophomore of the Year, is
expected to inherit most of
Smith's responsibilities. Cain
averaged 16.7 points a game
in 1967 to rank eighth in the
conference (the top seven
scorers have graduated).
Cam also averaged nine re
bounds a game, sixth best in
the league.
Other returning starters
returning for Iowa State in
clude Jim Abrahamson Mike
Murray and Dave Collins.
MISSOURI The Tigers,
who managed to place sixth
last year, are expected to be
strong although they lost 62
per cent of its offensive
power.
Don Tomlinson (6-4) is the
best offensive boost. He
averaged 15.2 points a jame
as a sopnomore last year.
Guard Pete Helmbock is the
other returning starter for the
Tigers.
Tom Theonen, Theo Franks
and Chuck Kundert lettered
last year, but provided only
about 16 points per game
among them. Letterman Jim
Chapman also reported to
Coach Norm Stewart, who
starts his second Tiger
season.
Top sophomore prospects
are center Charles Payne (6-
), forwards Mark
Frederickson (6-3) and Bob
Johnson (6-5) and guards Bob
Boston (6-3) and Barry
Maurer (6-0).
OKLAHOMA Garfield
Heard should be heard from
around Big Eight circles this
season, but he doesn't
necessarily qualify Oklahoma
as a title threat.
Heard is the best rebounder
in the league back from last
year. He retrieved 250 carems
in 1967 for a 9.6 average.
Heard, a junior, can also
score as indicated by his 310
points and 11.9 average.
The Sooners lost Don Sidle
and Willie Rogers from their
lineup this year. So Heard is
likely to shoot more to help
pick up the scoring slack.
Other lettermen returning
include Steve Ayers, Harry
Brown, Paul Cloar, Joe
Holladay and Landy Watson.
"We have a lot of question
marks and a lot of problems,"
said OU Coach John
MacLeaod, who starts his se
cond season.
The Big Eight is a big
question mark, too.

Democrats' regrou
Continued from page 1
Campbell believes that lack
of communication within the
party is its biggest fault.
He pointed to the clash
between Democrats at the
state convention last summer
concerning a platform state
ment on the war in Vietnam.
"NOTHING CAN be ac-
complished by people yelling
at each other," he said. "We
must learn to work together
without animosity."
Eric Carlson, another
spokesman for the NDC,
hopes that the party will
function actively between
elections.
"One , of our biggest pro
blems is that we get together
every two years for an elec
tion without knowing what is
going on within the party,"
Carlson said.
"We will try to com
municate between elections,
support for certain candidates
when there is no pressure of
and when there is more
time," he said.
THE NDC will have two
primary goals, Campbell
said. One is to stir up interest
concerning issues. The other
is to discover candidates who
can "serve the party in the
best way."
"We don't expect this to be
a love-fest," Campbell said;'
"We expect to disagree will
party policies; we expect
some infighting."
But the coalition will abidf
by the majority decisions,
made by the state party, he
emphasized.
"Afterall, that's w h a f
politics is all "bout,1;
Campbell concluded. :
Coriiliuskers rank second in defense
Nebraska ranks second in all Bis Eight team defensive
categories, yet fifth place is NU's highest offensive showing.
I he Huskers are rated behind Missouri in all defensive
groups, and Kansas is third in all defensive categories, while
offensively, Kansas dominates by leading three positions.
