The Monk and the Ox. An odd combin ation, but put them together a nd they sta ck u p to 13' 1" and 420 pounds of basketba ll players. And what's more important to Tommy Blackbl;lrn's University of Dayton Fl yers is that th ey add up to 526 points in 20 ga mes. The Monk, Da yton's ca nd idate for All-Ameri ca n honors, is Don Meincke, 6' 7" junior. The Ox is Vaughn T ay lor, 6' 5" sophomore. Both a re centers and both are home-grown products of the Gem City. M ein cke, the polished product, a ppea rs well on his way to cracking his school record of 510 points set last season in 32 ga mes. Dayton plays only 28 schedul ed ga mes this yea r. In 20 games Meineke has scored 418 points (an average of 20.9 ) and needs just

Coach T ommy Blackburn's U nivers ity of Dayton basketball Fl yers have headed into the home-stretch of the current season with a comeback bordering on the phenomena l-but still have big hurdles to clea r. For the Flyers, who a ren't exactly a ll erg ic to th e th ought of play ing in a post-season tourney, can't a fford a let down a t this point. Dayton opened on a wobb ly keel, dropping three of their first six games. However, after dropping a 66- 72 decision to Eas tern Kentucky th e Flye rs stra ightened o ut a nd barreled through 12 stra ight o pponents, some nationall y rega rded a nd ra nked, before skidding off the victory trail aga in. The stretch of 12 set a new record for the Fl yers in consecutive game winning streak. Youngs town Coll ege finall y clipped D ayton 76-73 a t Youngs town. Ano ther reco rd was cracked during ' that winning drive as Don ( M onk ) M ein cke, the Fl yers 6' 7" junior center, cracked a single game scoring record tha t had stood since 1907 when Bill Hi lgerink netted 48 points for ole St. M a ry's Institute. M eineke banked in 49 points as D ayton drubbed Muskingum 100-71. The lanky cen ter was removed by Blackburn immed iately after se tting the new record. There were still four minutes rem aining in th e ga me but Mein eke was a tired lad . In th e drive th at ca rried the Flyers to a ranking of 18th in the nation by the Associated Press and lOth in th e country according to Dick Dunkel's high ly rega rded rating se rvice the D ayton tea m topped stiff opposition. C hicago Loyo la was one of the tea ms dropped and in a span of eight days D ayton knocked off Louisville (bea ten on ly twice ), Toledo a nd Eastern K entucky. All three of the
\
latter clubs are regarded as being among the best teams of the country. The Flyers proved they weren't a " ho me-front" club by moving into Toledo a nd turning back J erry Bush's fine club 67-56 in a scrappy duel before 4600. D ayton earlier had defeated the Rockets 64-46. Two nights after the second Toledo game the Flyers came a cropper in Youngstown and dropped that a forementioned 73-76 tilt. Thus the Flyers in winning 16 of their first 20 games were defeated by a tota l of just 18 points in their four losses. Bcfore the season began Blackburn said his Flyers would win 20 of their 28 games. T here appears to bt little doubt that they will reach that mark. After YoungstO\vn the Gem City club lost little time rebounding into the win column. Baltimore Loyola was disposed of 70-.54. New faces popped into Blackburn's first five in that tilt with Gene Hickey, 6' I" sophomore, moving into a guard post with Vaughn Taylor, 6'5" sophomore, taking over a forward spot. Hickey, a classy ball-handler f rom T oledo, had played so well in relief roles that Blackburn felt he deserved a place on the starting club. T he young sophomore, who a lso can score well for a play-maker, will be ha rd to kee p out of the line-up as long as he continues to hustle. With Bounding Pete Boyle and Chuck Grigsby in temporary slumps, T aylor was moved into a forward post . The Ox, as the genia l sophomore has been dubbed by his teamma tes, boasts the Flyers second best shooting percentage from the floor. Taylor, generally used to spell Meincke in the pivot, has played few min utes but still has scored 108 points. His lazy, floating left hand hook shot generally fi nds its m ark. Boyle and Grigsby, who played terrific ball during the F lyers big comeback drive, shou ld return to form shortly. :Meanwhile the Dayton "bench" is paying off. Blackburn has used Gene J oseph, 5' 10" forward fro m Martins Fer ry, 0., a nd Bobby Flynn, 5'7n fleet senior forwa rd from Lexington, K y., as spot men. _l oseph played the entire second ha lf of th e Rocket game in Toledo a nd turned in a top-notch performa nce. Flynn bounced into the Louisvi lle ga me to give a helping hand to Leland (Junior ) Norris who was cond ucting a one-man scoring campaig n. T he F lyers who trailed as much as 19 points a t one time, refused to quit even though L ouisville led for 35 min-
