June Diploma Way To Stop Kansas Giant By JOHN McCALLUM NEA SUft Correspondent NEW YORK (NEA) Bruce Drake has finally discovered a was te stop large Clyde Lovellette." "With a June diploma," says the Oklahoma coach. Lankv Lovellette he's split right up to his chest is the six-foot-nine Kansas basketball center, you know, who established five new ' National Collegiate Athletic Associ ation tournament records at Seat tle, set a major college three-season mark of 1888 points, and aver aged 31 points in the Olympic Try outs Tournament at Madison Square Garden. The Kansas All-America from Terre Haute, Ind., will head the U. S. Olympic basketball team, which leaves lor Helsinki July 8. The squad consists of teammates Chuck Hoag, Bill Hougland. Dean Kellev. John Keller. Bob Kenney and BUI Linehard; National Ama teur Athletic Union Champion Pe oria's Roc Bontemps, Marcus Frei berger. Frank McCabe, Dan Pip pin and Howie WUllams: and PnU lips Oilers' Wayne Glasgow and Bob Kurland. XI NICKNAMES Peoria's Warren Womble will coach the club. Kansas' Dr. Phog Allen will go along as assistant. But this started out as a testi monial to Mr. LoveUette, all n years and 244 pounds of him. He has developed into a publicity nan's dream. Jayhawk press agents have pUed 27 nicknames on the super senior with the face of an Irish cop and the Helen Keller touch tags like The Terre Haute Terror, Colossal Clyde, Cloudburst Clyde, Magnificent Monster, and Great White Whale of the Kaw. LoveUette will go along with the production. Something of a comic, he's the Berle of basketball, keeps the Jayhawks in stitches. A year ago, when Kansas Invad ed the east, school officials got the sky-scraping pivot two upper train berths with the head boards knocked out. Lovellette simply wouldn't fit in the standard size bed. So before turning in, Clyde col lared the porter. "Be sure." he said, "to wake up both berths at the same time." Lovellette was virtually unstop pable the last two weeks of the season leading Kansas to the NCAA crown. Against National Invitation Tournament champion LaSaUe, he scored 40 points, hit seven of his first eight attempts. He added another 22 against Peoria in the Olympic tryouts. AS GOOD AS MIKAN "He's great," waxed the New York Knickerbockers' Joe Lap chick. "He's as good as George Mikan was at a comparable stage. In the pivot he's as good as Mikan right now." "A terrific prospect." added Red Auerbach, Boston Celtics' coach. "He fools you. He's smart, has quick hands, one of the greatest big men I've ever seen." What about professional basket ball? "Not Interested." Lovellette says. 'The playing career of a pro Is snort, men wnere are you.' i a like to play for Phillips Oilers." . LoveUette is worried about his height. "I'm only six - nine." he an nounces. "When I was in high school they used to say I was six-foot-10 and six-11. I think I must be shrinking." Opponents wish his basketball scores would ionow suit. ra for Pels THE LADY AND THE BULL Protty Patricia MvCornuck flashes a bright smile and holds up the ears and tail of her conquered bull for all the crowd to see after making two clean kills during a performance at Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. The lady bullfighter much improved since her debut, later returned in the program (right) to add another beast to her list. There was a touch of optimism in the Pelican baseball camp this week as the Klamath Falls nUie prepares for the trip to Medford and its conference tilt with the fa vored Black Tornado Friday. Reason for the flicker o( nope was the return of Lelterman Kenny Young to his catching duties. Young had decided to pass up base ball this season but changed his mind. With Young back, Ron owinirs goes back to his familiar third baa. sdoI alUiough there's a chance Coach John McGlnnls will switch Owings to shortstop to plug an obvious weakness and move Lundsten in from the outfield to work at third base. FAVORED Medford. odd-on favorites to cap ture the Southern Oregon Confer ence title, has five wins thus far against no defeats in the exhibition circuit. The Tornadoes, ooting with letter men, beat Grants Pass in two games. Crater. Yreka and Southern Oregon CoUege once each. In Tuesday's Grants Pass exhibi tion game Outfielder-Pitcher Terry Maddox turned in a no-hlt. no-run 13-0 victory. Only two Cavemen reached first base, one on a walk, one via an error. Maddox also pitched five innings of shutout ball against SOCE when relieved in the sixth. But, with all of Maddox talent on the hill. Derald Wooton is Mod ford's Number 1 moundsman and he'U probably get the call against the Pelicans. Ol'TFIELD Maddox wiU work the outfield, other lettermen toiling for Med ford are infielders Dennis Conner, Dick Atterbury and Max Lindley: First-baseman Ned Landers, who landed an all-State berth last sea son as an outfielder: and Catchers nirk Wnnton and Ted Landers. McGinius hasn't settled on nis j pitching choice. It will be eimer Ralph Carroll or trea "ieari.
