Jayhawks Fear Ball -Control Tactics of Dons Friday
Page 2 Section 4
Kansas to Be in Top
Shape for USF Five
Woolpert Called
One of Best
Coaches
LAWnENCE, Kan. (UP)-Coach
Dick Harp said today his Kansas
Jayhawks would bo "ready and in
tho best possible shape" to meet
San Francisco Friday "but if we
can't set the tempo, then we'll get
beat.
Harp, looking forward to meet
ing the defending national cham
pions in an NCAA semi-final game
in Kansas City Friday, said "San
Francisco is the type of team that
it takes to beat us a ball con
trol club with a good defense."
On top of that, Harp said "Phil
Woolpert of San Francisco is one
of the very finest coaches in bas
ketball. If anyone knows how to
control (Willi Chamberlain it
should be Woo!pcrt-he had (Bill)
Russell for three years.
Harp said he felt that Kansas
definitely "jelled" as a six-man
team in the second half against
Oklahoma City in the regional at
Dallas Saturday, won by Kansas
81-61.
"Our boys were a little upset
that every one was saying we
were a one-man team," Harp
said. "They played that second
half very well and proved once
again that we aren t just a one
man team.
"If we get behind against San
Francisco, it will put a lot 01 pros
sure on our boys to get back into
the game." he added, "but other
wise we should do all right."
Players Tall, But
There 's No Limit
Time Was When
Center of 6-3
Was Goon
NEW YORK, (UP) The word
from Taps Gallagher today is that
the sky Is not the limit in college
basketball.
The sky to which Taps refers is
(he supposed peak both physically
and mechanically which the game
has reached in this era. And Gal
lagher, whose coaching genius
raised Niagara tip among the
round ball greats, (eels that this
Is just the beginning.
"Twenty years ago when I or
dered equipment for my squads,"
he points out as an example, "the
most predominant size shoes were
nines and a half. Today I have
one kid who wears that size and
the average is size 11. But there
are more kids with size 13 shoes
than there are any other single
size."
Belter Dirts Now
Taps attributes some of this to
vitamins and better diets but also
to the natural processes of the
centuries in which people con
stantly are increasing in size.
"In 1924, I heard it said that
we had reached a physical peak,
Gallagher continued. "Our center
was six feet, three inches tall and
he was a goon. Each school had
one big fellow who stood about six
feet, three or (our inches. They
were regarded as monsters. To
day that's just a run of the mill
size."
It is interesting, in view of Gal
lagher s assertion that today s cal
ibre of play is the greatest ever,
that he still classes Max Posnack,
a St. John's player of the very
early 30's, as the best basketball
player he ever saw.
Lots Of Good Ones
"It's difficult to say who were
the greatest of all time because
there were so many good ones
and also that before 1930 we didn't
have much chance to see all the
good players in the various sec
tions," he explains.
But they couldn't hardly come
any belter than Posnack, who
could do everything, and some of
the others who stand out in my
mind are such as George Mikan,
Tom Gola, Rollic Minson of Rrig-
Vnnn r.rnnn nnrt Hirlr
llickctts."
Yet, Gallagher insists, all of
them may be shoved into limbo
by the players of the future.

Less Free Throwing Seen
Pirate 'Paul Bunyan' Talks
And Performs Equally Well
By MILTON KICIIMAN
United Press Sports Writer
FORT MYERS, Fla. (UP)-By
far the most fabulous rookie of the
apring is Dick (Shotgun) Stuart,
a Paul Bunyan In Pittsburgh flan
nels who clouted 66 homers last
ecason, hit one ball 610 feet and
makes Dizzy Dean sound like a
aphinx by comparison.
So refreshingly cocky and artic
ulate is the big, 200-pound out
fielder about his accomplishments
with Lincoln of the Western
League last season and about
what he can do In the big leagues
that Pirate Manager Bobby Bra
gan had to advise him to case up.
He Won't Stop
Here's a sampling of some of
Stuart's comments:
"How much does Ted Williams
make? A hundred thousand!
lleck, I'm not gonna slop there."
"I don't see any reason why 1
shouldn't make this ball club. 1
drove in 151 runs last year which
is about the same total all three
Pittsburgh outfielders kn o c k c d
In."
"Yeah, 1 hit a ball 610 leet In
Pueblo last year. 1 got inlo the
ball pretty good. Thai mo icci is ff
accurate. They measured It." :
In a recent exhibition game :
against the Phillies, the right-
handed hitting Stuart blasted n'fj
liomcr oil lirunny iniiiuii.-i . iiun
to Ihe game, someone in the
Hands offered K to any Pirate
player who hit a homer.
Where's The Fiver?
First thing Stuart did when
Vragan substituted another player
lor him was to come into the
stands, still in his uniform, and
inquire:
' Where's the guy who offered
the live bucks?"
h.uart demonstrated his power
aain Tuesday when he blasted a
two-run homer more tlutn 4(KI UtI
over the crntcr Held lenec oil vel
nan Art Fowler to give Ihe Pi
rales their winning runs in a fi-4
victory over Cincinnati.
At 24, Small has put in lour
seasons in pro ball ami there is
considerable doubt in Ihe niinils
o( the Pirnles whether he is ready
lor the majors yet.
Chances are he'll ho sent down
again, but a lot of people will be
rooting for him to come hark.

KANSAS CITY. Mo. (UP)-Col-
lcgc basketball today appears
headed toward less free throwing.
The nation's lop coaches con
vened here to discuss rules
changes for the game and top
item on the list was the disliked
one-and-onc free throw system.
Reports Irom a Rules Commit
tee mcoting was that most
coaches arc unhappy with the cur
rent rules, and would like to
switch to a system tried on an
experimental basis this past sea
son in the Rig Ten.'
Under the Big Ten system, the
one-and-one docs not apply to the
first six fouls in each half. But
outside of that lone conference,
fouled player trudged to the line
in most cases knowing that if he
could make his first shot, lie
would get a "bonus" try.
The coaches meeting opens offi
cially today with the Rules Com
mittee making its report at 1:50
p.m. The rules will be discussed
officially at three different ses
sions before coming up for a final
vote at 3:30 p.m. Friday
The coaches, some 350 to 400
strong, do not make the rules but
merely make recommendations to
the National Rules Committee

2 Kansas Losses
Were to Slow
Play Teams
KANSAS CITY U) - "We play
a fine San Francisco team Friday
for a chance of getting a shot at
the championship."
That was about as far as Dick
Harp, completing his first season
as head coach of the Kansas Jay
hawks, would go in answer to the
question: How do you think your
team will lare in the NCAA tournament?
Harp, who succeeded the famed
Dr. F.C. (Phog) Allen as Kansas
coach, admits he has one of the
greats of the game in All-America
Wilt (The Stilt) Chamberlain,
7-foot sophomore from Philadel
phia.
All Are AU-Americans
'But let me warn you, when
you come up to the NCAA finals
all of the opposition is All Amer
ica," Harp said. "And remember
the two games we lost this sea
son were to teams of the same
type as San Francisco."
Harp, a former Kansas star,
was referring to Iowa State, which
beat his team in early season, 39
37, and Oklahoma A&M, which
took the Jayhawks, 56-54. .
"San Francisco has a great
coach (Phil Woolpert) aj'd the
Dons are schooled in the line de
tails of the game," Harp offered.
"They know howi to control the
game and are superb defensive
ly." Iowa State and Oklahoma A&M
each concentrated on ball control
and slow play to upset the Kan
sans, rated No. 2 nationally.
Kansas and San Francisco
share the semifinal program Fri
day night with North Carolina,
voted the nation's No. 1 team.
and Michigan State. North Car
olina and Michigan State open the
show. A capacity crowd of 10,500
is assured.
The winning teams meet for the
championship Saturday night, fol
lowing the consolation tilt between
the semi-final losers.
