WLAP radio . . . dial 630 .. . Kentucky's First Station ADOLPH RUPP 'Coach of the Year' * For nearly three decades, the sports world has watched an amazing record being forged with near perfection out of meager raw material by a colorful figure in the Bluegrass country of Kentucky known familiarly to hundreds of thousands as the "Man in the Brown Suit." He is Adolph Rupp of Kentucky and when the sport of basketball is mentioned today, a direct chain of thought brings out the name of this maker of champions who holds undisputed rank as the "Nation's Winningest Basketball Coach." The name of Rupp, feared and respected in opponents' hearts and beloved by the millions who have witnessed the remarkable success of his Wildcat cage teams, has become synonymous with the game of basketball. Such unprecedented recognition for the fabulous mentor is only natural since his success in the past 29 years as head man of the fabled Kentucky cage thoroughbreds has been nothing short of phenomenal. It would take a book longer than his own technical best-seller, "Championship Basketball," to recite the record completely. Briefly, however, that record includes: An amazing 608 victories out of 714 starts for an unparalleled winning percentage of better than 85 percent against major competition. Selection as the national "Coach of the Year" in 1959 for the second time in his career as he guided an inexperienced group of sophomores to a 24-3 record. The honor was bestowed by United Press International and the Knute Rockne Clubs of America. An unprecedented honor roll of four NCAA Tournament championships picked up by his Wildcats who hold the all-time record of 1 1 appearances in the national classic and can claim more victories in NCAA play (21) than any other team. A nominal world's championship as co-coach of the successful USA entry in the 1948 Olympic Games which included members of Kentucky's NCAA champions. A total of 19 Southeastern Conference titles since the league was organized in 1933. Election to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1959 and previous selection (in 1946) by Helms Athletic Foundation as a member of their exclusive cage Hall of Fame. Election to the Kentucky Hall of Fame (1945), outstanding citizen of Lexington (1949) and twice honorary citizen of the City of New Orleans. Development of more All-Americans (21) and more material for the pro ranks (17) than any other coach. Four Sugar Bowl Tournament championships, a National Invitation Tournament title and four trophies from the first six UK Invitational Tournaments. 7 THE QUALITY MEN'S STORES OF LEXINGTON KENTUCKY BASKETBALL SCHEDULE AND RESULTS 1959-60 1 9 5 9 UK Opp. Dec. 1 Colorado State (H) ............106 73 Dec. 4 U.C.L.A.

LANCASTER Assistant Coach When Harry Lancaster finds a spare moment to reflect on his days as an all-around star athlete at Georgetown (Ky.) Co.lege back in the early thirties, he can recall with a degree of dismay how close he came to never pursuing the "round ball" sport that in the days since has earned him a respected position in the basketball world. An All-Conference halfback for three straight years and captain during his last two seasons, Lancaster's football career almost overshadowed his play on the basketball court. In the cage sport, he was equally successfulwith three All-Conference nominations and two team captaincies to his creditbut considered himself a better football player than eager. Experience, however, proved him a good student and teacher of the sport of basketball as he began his coaching career. Lancaster bosses a promising group of yearling cagers and holds down the position of assistant varsity basketball coach and general right hand man to Adolph Rupp. He was made a full-time assistant by Coach Rupp in 1948. Born in Paris, Ky., Lancasler attended Paris High School, participating fcr four years in all sports. The UK freshmen, under his guidance, have lost only 13 contests during the past ten seasons. His overall record stands at 91 wins, 13 losses. 6 LUSTERWAY f\ p" I f ^ |"N LUX <$. ^s DRY Dryeleaning Ll Lh f If L_ LAUNDRY \y V*" Guarantees cleaner, Wmm ^^tmif 1^^.

Respect their opinions and decisions. They have been given thorough and competent training and have had more experience through the years. Basketball officiating is considered the most difficult of all arbitering. All teams have been well coached and have practiced diligently. Each is entitled to reflect this training and to show that their success is not luck nor a gift from the officials. Give credit and recognize ability when due. Booing is a sign of a poor sport. It is the source of all poor conduct and lack of good manners. Eliminate it. The impression your visitors gain depends on you. Let's prove that we can be courteous and hospitable.

If he makes up his mind to utilize his size to full effectiveness, Ned could be the latest to join an outstanding group of pivotmen produced by Coach Rupp and thereby possibly ease a complicated personnel problem that existed at the season's opening. To materially aid the Wildcat cause, however, Ned must live up to his potential and stay healthy. In the middle of his freshman campaign two years ago, he underwent an appendectomy. Just before the 1958-59 season got A Wildcat- NED JENNINGSJuniorCenter Headquarters, Ky. underway, he suffered a cut in the corner of his eye that hampered his play and then sprained an ankle just before mid-season. This caused him to miss the last nine games of the regular season. All told, Jennings saw only 81:11 action time in 1 1 games. High points of his play came in two starts in the UK Invitational as replacement for ailing Mills. Scored 32 points for the season and high was six-point effort against Ohio State. Well-coordinated for his size and no "bean pole" in physique with 200 pounds on his frame. Has a good hook shot and jumper from medium distance. Has good speed and defensive ability.
