Tex Winter is bringing along a club built on five lettermen, two sophomore starters and a bench of rookie-junior reserves. With normal development it is a con- glomeration which figures to contend all the way for the 1956 Big Seven flag. It carries good size, adequate speed and high firepower. Stay at High Level. ‘As for the tournament, which ‘commences its tenth annual run Tuesday night in Municipal Auditorium, fea Wildcats have tradition on their side. In nine years they have finished below third only twice. They failed to [place in the first division only in » lone occasion on which they have dropped a_ first-round game. Their 20-7 tourney won- lost level is the composite best among league teams. And their three titles are the most won by any entry. ~~ Yet the Purple will need every gun in its arsenal and every shred of tradition to clear even the first round. Its foe is Iowa State. This figures to be the tightest match of opening set ot games. It is the nightcap of esday’s ° -battle set, which jleads off with Colorade 0. q Esday. - Winter’s © arting | rookies through the Sal four games hive § been Jack Parr, the much- heralded 6-9 recruit from Rich- mond, Va., and Larry Fischer, 6-4 forward from Pratt. Parr tops every tourney center on ‘pre-meet scoring tables at 16.8 through his first five games. His 26 in the 92-66 flogging of Loyola is the most ever har- vested by a Wildcat sophomore.

By Maury White. Iowa State’s basketball squad .didn’t have a_ very merry Christmas this year but, man, it was set Saturday to welcome the new year! The 15-man Cyclone, squad stayed in Ames during Christ- mas weekend when most peo- ple were consorting with Santa Claus and did nothing more exciting than practice. ‘Since, and probably part- ly because of this diligence, Coach Bill Strannigan’s team has received the best present of all—the Big Sev- en Conference tournament ' Six of the squad scattered from Kansas,City after Friday night’s 67-56 title victory over Kansas and nine arrived back in Des Moines by train Satur- day afternoon. They had the trophy, a big gold-plated basketball. They had some fond memories. They also had an 8-1 basket- ball record and quiet confi- dence about the future. “I don’t even want to think about the league sea- son today,” said Co Strannigan. “I just want to spend the day enjéying what we won.” Four of the six Vogt and Medsker were. Everybody was happy, but everybody was tired. There was Very little talk about bas- ketball. Iowa State’s young bunch (nine sophomores, three jun- iors) wasn’t amazed that it had won. That victory over nationally - ranked Vanderbilt did a lot for its confidence. | KK Kek It is a pleasant chore to report that previous winners of the annual league meet have done all right during the regular season (which opens with Kansas State at Ames Saturday). Five times in nine previ- ous meets the tournament _ titlist has gone on to win a _ clear title or a share. The guest team won the first meet in 1946. — Kansas State won the 1947 meet and the °47-48 crown. Oklahoma won the next meet itle with sas State and Kansas each pulled the trick in the next two years. It didn’t work in 1952, but ' in ’53 Kansas won its second meet and tied Colorado for season’s honors. Last year Missouri won the tourney and Colorado took league honors. This looks to be-the best balanced Big Seven race since the 1948-49 season when an 8-4 record gave three schools a share of the top. Huskers Strong. Opinions varied, but most people are guessing that everyone except Oklahoma and Nebraska is capable of making a stout bid. And they’re leery about the Husk- ers, too. Iowa State’s last title was in 1944-45 in Big Six days and every team except Missouri has won or shared a league title since then. ove) The. 8-1 mark the Cy- bee ee CD” DR | Schnellenberger, Tor Die”? - Both Big Ten quarterbacks were among the top 10 ground-gainers in the nation >|last season, amassing more than 1,000 yards each.

Then he sank . the second and turned and held up two fingers before scooting back on defense. “He’s really a leader now,” pointed out Strannigan. “He’s always been a great player for us, but. he’s really taken charge in the last four gamesite.- _ Gary, incidentally, almost had to go home with his folks.
