Couldn't find the video of the game above, but did come across this game from the 50's. The game hasn't changed as much as I was expecting. Cleo Littleton had a nice game. He was more of a jump shooter than a slasher. It appears the Shockers win on a last second basket. The video is pretty choppy towards the end.
If you're short on time, jump to the 31:10 mark, Cleo makes a couple of nice defensive plays and scores 5 straight to put the Shockers up 5 heading into the 4th.Shocker fan for life after witnessing my first game in person, the 80-74 win over the #12 Creighton Bluejays at the Kansas Coliseum.

I'll just put this here; referenced in another thread...
Fairmount College to induct three into Hall of Fame (wichita.edu)
"A coach’s son, his passion for sports began on his family’s farm near Ulysses, Kansas, where he spent long hours on the tractor. He used his vivid imagination to create and narrate play-by-play for games. Bender attended the University of Wichita on a football scholarship, and played fullback and defensive back positions until a shoulder injury took him off the field. Apart from sports, he acted in or worked as a crew member for several campus plays. He was also a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, where he participated in Hippodrome and served as treasurer. He eventually worked for KMUW, the university’s radio station, and covered Shocker football games."
Bender won three Emmys for his work in sportscasting. His book “Call of the Game,” shares broadcasting tips he learned firsthand. In 2008, Bender was inducted into the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame, and in 2012, the Kansas Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame. He received the President's Medal from Wichita State University in 2013.
