PAGE 4 The Daily Nebraskan THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1963; In league prediction . . . 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 Bob Gratopp jj " rift' I' I I' i 'then it is can do." Thomas is bounder. 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.

Nov. 16 & 17 75c General 2 & 7 P.M. 50c Members 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.
