Kansas Beats
St. Johns By
3O-68 Score
Lovelleite Scores
SO Points To Allow
Jayhawlxs To Win
NCAA Title
By JIM HUTCHINSON

SEATTLE tR - Kansas rules the
world of collegiate basketball to-
day and Zig Clyde Lovellette wears
the crown.
The Jayhawks won tie NCAA
title in convincing fashion Wednes-
day night by downing St. Johns
of Brooklyn. 80-eS, in the cham
pionship finale Of the 1852 playoffs.
Lovellette, keeping up terrific
scoring pace with the champion
ship chips down, led the way with
80 points. His record-breaking per-
Torrance brought him the designa-
ton as most valuable player Of
the tourney.
THE Kansas conquest came after
Illinois won third ranking by down
ing Santa Clara. 81. g. in the
consolation game. Kansas rad

never gave the Redmen Of St.
Johns a chance in the payoff
game. Lovellette put the Kansans
in front with an opening rec throw
and they stayed there all the way,
The Jayhawks set up an irC'1
defense that kept the Redmen in
check so they never were able
to keep sustained offensive click
| ing until the final period. 1t was
the, only one in which tho losers
held scoring edge.
Meanwhile, Loyellette kept firing
his. deadly pushups and hook shots
to run IN a dozen field goals along
with nine free throws.
The 6-foot 9-inch Lovellette ran
his 4-game NCAA playoff scoring
total to 141 points. He had broken
the old record Gs SO points in the
first three games, 1t had been set
by Don Sunderlage of Illinois last
year.
He also set a new free throw
record OF IS for the four games.
The old record Of 81 ais, was held
by Sunderlage.

Pirates Tangle With
Kenton Wildcats In
Initial Home Contest

Opening their 1852 season against
a Western Buckeye league opponent,
Bluffton Highs Pirates will tackle
Kenton's Wildcats in a home con-
test under the lights at Harmon field
this Friday night.
Traditional opener for the Bluff
ton team, Kenton always provides a
real test for the locals in a game
that usually also gives an indication
as to the probable strength of the
Pirates for the coming season.
Both teams saw preliminary action
in gridiron previews last week.
Playing at North Baltimore, Coach
Pete Schmidt's Bluffton proteges
scored a 6 to 0 victory ver Pan
dora in a 16-minute assignment, and
appeared to be headed for another
score when the gun cut the action
short.
Kenton first-stringers in their pre-
view appearance lost a 7-S decision
to Upper Sandusky. Kenton's B
team however, won over the Upper
Sandusky second stringers, an indi-
cation that reserve strength of the
foes for this week may be stronger
than that of the Pirates.

After the second hectic week of
program cancellation in favor Of
convention deliberations, broad
casters expect to get back to
normal this week and stay that
way until the presidential cam
paign gets hot enough to take

The radio and TV men came
out of the conventions with the
hope that the politicians will be
able to do something about
streamlining their future activ-
tiles. Listeners and viewers lost a
lot of sleep sticking through 3
am. adjournments.
While the broadcaSters gave
millions of people a real glimpse
of democracy in action by the
first coast-to-coast telecaSt, the
feeling seems to be that the same
job could be accomplished
through closer adherence to the
split-time schedule Of radio-TV.
During the conventions pro-
gram schedules are difficult to
maintain, and extra costs are
heavy. Despite the fact the net
works had sponsor cooperation,
