I only mention such things as this as unpleasant happen-
: the basketball administration at Oklahoma

not putting mature men in positions of responsibility. When freshe
men are played up to such an unusual extent as was Tucker, then it is
impossible to have@normal, uodest, gentlemaily individual out of

In all such positions of trust here we put faculty repres-

by Eissouri tonight, and if we are of course Oklahoma will win émé we
will congratulate then. But if we defeat Missouri, then instead of
talking about scoring more points on Kansas as Oklahoma did, why not
bring out the trus ratio between the offense and the defense and say
