Stewart calls
by Jim Johnson
Former Nebraska basketball
standout Marvin Stewart, who
was placed on waivers Monday
by the Philadelphia 76'ers,
claims he wasn't given a fair
chance to make the NBA team.
"1 thought I did a good job
when I got a chance to play,"
said Stewart, "but I didn't get
too much playing time."
Stewart, an All-Big Eight
guard for Nebraska last year,
said he explained his feelings to
Philadelphia coach Jack
Ramsay.
"I TOLD HIM that 1 didn't
get a fair chance to play," said
Stewart, "but he didn't agree.
He said all the rookies had an
equal chance."
The 76'ers kept rookie
guard Dave Wohl from
Pennsylvania instead of
Stewart, who was their No. 2
KU finds
Kansas football coach Don
Fambrough must be wearing a
big smile this week. He's finally
giving Nebraska head coach
Bob Devaney a little of his own
medicine.
Fambrough, who is in his
first year as the Jayhawks'
head coach, was an assistant at
Kansas for 23 years and
worked primarily with the
linebackers. For the past two
seasons, Fambrough hasn't
known how to prepare his
linebackers for the Nebraska
game because he didn't know
who the starting quarterback
would be. . . Jerry Tagge or
Van Brownson.
But this year it's Devaney
who is wondering about
Kansas' starting quarterback.

David Jaynes replaced veteran
Dan Heck in. Saturday's game
Rater's nightmare shatters
Monday night in intramural
flag football action was one of
those nights commonly
referred to as a rater's
nightmare.
All five of the fraternity A
division teams saw action
Monday evening, and when the
dust had settled on Vine Street
fields, four of them had lost.
The big upset victim was
top-ranked Phi Delta Theta,
last year's fraternity division
champs who have led this
year's ratings from the
beginning of the season. The
Phi Delts fell to unrated Beta
Theta Pi, 32-28.
The third-ranked Ag Men
lost to Phi Kappa Psi, 31-27,
fourth ranked Sigma Alpha
Epsilon lost to second ranked
Phi Gamma Delta, 40-6, and
fifth ranked Delta Upsilon fell
to Sigma Chi, 20-13.
The Phi Delt loss to the
Betas left those two teams and
Phi Gamma Delta (Fiji) in a
three-way tie for the leadership
of league No. 1 .

draft choice last year.
Philadelphia also has veteran
guards Hal Greer, Archie Clark
and Wally Jones. Jones,
however, has been placed on
new quarterback
against Kansas State and
directed the Jayhawks to a
39-13 win.
Jaynes came off the bench
to start the second quarter of
the scoreless game. He
proceeded to throw three
touchdown passes and direct
Kansas to a 33-7 lead before
leaving the game early in the
fourth quarter. In little more
than two quarters, Jaynes hit
12 or 18 passes for 163 yards.
"Jaynes did a tremendous
job for a sophomore," said
Devaney after watching films
of the game. "He gives Kansas
a different type of attack. He
isn't as good of a runner as
Heck, but he gives their offense
more balance because of his
passing."
Devaney, however, doesn't
know which quarterback will
start.
"They were hot and we had
an off night," Phi Delt team
member Mike Peetz said,
explaining their loss to the
Betas.
"They're a good team and
they capitalized on our
mistakes, but we wouldn't lose
to them again."

foul in
probation for not signing a
contract.
"It really shocked me when
they told me I was being
placed on waivers," said
Stewart. "I'm better than
Wohl. I just didn't get a fair
chance."
STEWART, IN A telephone
conversation from his
Philadelphia apartment
Tuesday, said he will now play,
for Hartford in the Eastern
League if he isn't claimed by
another team. The 7ft'ers could
not cut Stewart because his
contract read that he must be
paid even if he doesn't make
the team.
"I haven't been contacted
by another team and I don't
think I will be," said Stewart.
"1 guess I'll just have to keep
trying. They can't keep a good
man down."
"They may go with Heck or
they might even alternate the
two," observed Devaney.
"Jaynes definitely adds
another dimension to the
Kansas offense and he creates
some different problems."
Kansas, which now sports a
3-2 record, had the services of
running back Vince O'Neil for
the first time last Saturday.
O'Neil, who had to miss the
first four games because of his
involvement in the Kansas
recruiting violation last year,
gained 43 yards on only six
carries. O'Neil returned a
kickoff for a touchdown
against Nebraska last year.
Nebraska offensive tackle
Carl White, who was injured in
the Missouri game, missed
Tuesday's practice but is
expected to be ready for
Saturday's game with Kansas.

Bennett was optimistic about
his team's chances for the
play-offs after their convincing
win over Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
"Everything worked real
well," Bennett said about
Monday night's victory.
"Things just started clicking
and once they started, they
didn't stop."

76'er
Stewart scored 44 points for
the 76'ers in the exhibition
season when they recorded a
4-8 record. He started in a
game against Atlanta, but
played only the first quarter.
"They said my play was too
stagnant," explained Marv.
"They said I was too used to
Nebraska's type' of offense
where I shot off the pick.
"THEY WANT ME to get
more one-on-one conscious
because in pro basketball you
don't always have a set pattern
to run. It's usually you against
another individual. I guess they
want me to get more selfish."
Stewart, however, said he is
not bitter at the Philadelphia
organization.
"I'll be back," said Marvin.
"I think they sent me to the
astern League so I'll have an
opportunity to play more so I
can improve. That's why I'm
not all that mad. I'll be back
on the team before the season's
over."
STEWART IS the third
leading scorer in Nebraska
basketball history with 1,138
points and was the tirst
Comhusker to average over 20
points per game in a season.
Marv had a 21.4 average last
year.
