Transcript | Houston 62 Oklahoma City 70 Houston 54 Oklahoma City 58 A terrific 41 point scoring binge by Arnold Short gave the Indians an early lead and they went on to stop the Cougars 70-62. Short hit 18 points and missed only one field goal attempt in the first period to pull the Chiefs ahead 27-11. Houston fought back to within four points midway in the third quarter, but Short and his teammates put the game out of reach with another barrage of baskets. Gary Shivers and Jack Mosher had 16 and 15 points for Houston while Short hit 41 points and tossed in 17 of 18 foul shots. WILLBURN BOOHER Guard Gary Shivers makes two the easy way. Hatton and two Chiefs fight for the ball. It took high scoring Arnold Short three quarters to warm up and in that time OCU supporters had some doubts about the Chiefs finally beating the Cougars 58-54. But in the fourth period the 6 foot 3 hotshot found the range and plunked in 11 counters to clinch the victory for his team and scoring honors with 25 points. Especially troublesome to OCU were Houston's Guard Jack Mosher and Center Gary Shivers who were run- ners-up with 18 and 17 points respectively. 'Pops" Foster drops in two. |
