Iowa State outshoots SMU
to gain ‘lucky’ 80-70 win
United Press International
AMES, Iowa— Iowa State Coach Johnny Orr said
his basketball team was a little lucky but extremely
happy to get its first win of the young season, a
10-point decision over Southern Methodist.
Robert Estes tossed in 20 points and Paul Beene
added 19 points to lead the Cyclones to the 80-70
non-conference basketball victory over the Mus
tangs Wednesday night.
“We got it going a little bit our way and took
control of the game,” Orr said. “We got a few shots
off unmolested and fortunately they went in. ”
The Cyclones, 1-1, jumped to a 42-32 halftime
lead and weathered one SMU rally in the second
half.
SMU Coach Dave Bliss said the Mustangs lost to a
quick, good team.
“Iowa State just wore us down, ” Bliss said. “They
pressured us a lot out of our offense. We have young
players that in situations contribute one night and
have trouble the next.”
John Koncak and John Addison scored 19 points
each and John Briggs added 18 points off the bench
for the Mustangs, who fell to 2-1.
Addison, a 6-foot, 6-inch transfer from Colorado,
hit a series of jump shots from along the baseline and
Briggs hit two baskets inside as SMU cut the lead to
54-50 with 13:30 to play.
However, Beene hit a 3-point play on a drive and
Estes connected on two jumpers and a pair of free
throws as the Cyclones worked the lead to 61-51 with
11:53 to play.
SMU, which hit 50 percent from the field for the
game, could get no closer the rest of the evening.
Iowa State Center Ron Falenschek, who scored 8
points, said the Cyclones knew they had to come
back after their opening loss at Eastern Montana.
“Everyone felt terrible after that one,” Falenschek
said. “The loss put fire in everyone. After we built
the lead against SMU, we knew we could win.
Estes, a forward who passed the 1,000 career scor
ing mark late in the first half, had 12 of his points as
the Cyclones shot 52 percent in the first half.
“We went out to win as soon as we hit the floor,”
Estes said. “We were thinking about last year when
we lost all those games in the second half. We more
relaxed tonight than in our first game.”

Ring return
‘Old man ’ Frazier starts down comeback fraj
United Press International
CHICAGO — Joe Frazier isn’t
figuring on a drawn-out series of
fights to prepare him on his way
back to the heavyweight cham
pionship.
Frazier believes that tonight’s
scheduled 10-round battle with
journeyman Jumbo Cummings
ought to be enough to prove his
worth, even though Frazier is 37
and hasn’t fought in five years.
“I’m not looking ahead past
Jumbo Cummings first of all, but I
think one fight and I’ll be ready to
fight for the title,” Frazier says. “I
look at the heavyweight scene and
see how they are damaging it and I
think after one fight I’ll be ready. ”
Frazier, who returns to the ring
tonight at the Chicago Interna
tional Amphitheater, last fought in
a loss to George Foreman June 15,
1976.
The former champ, who holds a
career record of 32-4, weighed in
at 229V2 pounds, five pounds more
than when he lost to Foreman.
Cummings, 17-1, weighed in at
228-Vfe. He is seven years younger
than Frazier.
“Age don’t mean nothing.
When you are 37 in other busines
ses, you aren’t considered to be
washed up,” Frazier notes.
Frazier will earn approximately
$80,000 for his fight with Cum
mings, a far cry from the million
dollar purses that he collected
from his three fights with Muham
mad Ali. Ironically, Ali will be
fighting next week and Frazier has
denied he is trying to upstage his
longtime adversary.
“You can never earn enough
money. I want to keep winning
and earning money,” Frazier said.
Frazier has spent most of his
retirement — he prefers to call it a
long rest — working with fighters
in his home of Philadelphia. He
has guided the career of his son,
Marvis, whom he says he will not
fight in his battle to win back the
heavyweight title.
It is the training with the youn
ger hoxers which has Frazier con
vinced he is ready to defeat Cum
mings and go on to fight Larry
Holmes for the heavyweight title.
I m still in shape. Training
wasn’t difficult for me this time,”
Frazier said. “I’m ready to fight.”
Frazier said he is going to be a
better boxer against Cummings
than he was before he decided to
leave the ring.
“No problem with my eyes. No
problems with the legs,” he said.
I m better now than before 1 left
the public scene. My ability is dif
ferent, improved. The bo\i
preaching speed to me, It
moving, to keep my hen
from those punches.’’
Cummings, who servtj
years at Stateville Prison
nois, has had an undistin
career fighting mostly in t
cagoarea. He claims he isnli
hy fighting a former chan
“1 respect Joe Frazier
spect won’t mean much on
get in the ring, Cummin;
I know he was a former
pion. That doesn’t cause i
pn >hloms.”
