Jayhawkers To Play Aggies After Exams
After playing eight games in 20 days, Coach Phog Allen's Kansas basketball team will sit out two weeks to take final examinations. The Jayhawkers play their next game against Hank Iba's Oklahoma A&M Cowboys Tuesday, Jan. 31 in Allen Field House.
Kansas defeated the Aggies 65-62 two weeks ago in Stillwater. That victory gave KU an all-time margin of 22 victories to 17 for Oklahoma A&M. It also pulled Phog Allen abreast of Iba in their personal rivalry, 16 triumphs each. A KU victory would put Phog ahead of Iba for the first time since 1947.
As usual, the Aggies stress tight defense with a deliberate offense and are tough to beat. Their record for the season is 11 victories and three losses. Since losing to KU Jan. 4, they have defeated Wichita, 61-54, and Houston, 63-44, to place them at the top of the Missouri Valley Conference with St. Louis.
Against Houston, the Cowboys held 7-foot center Don Boldebuck to only 10 points. Leading scorers are forward Mack Carter and guards Mel Wright and V. R. Barnhouse.
Following the Aggie game, the Jayhawkers will resume Big Seven play Feb. 4 against Iowa State at Ames. They return home against Missouri Feb. 6. KU is in second place in conference standings with three victories and one loss. Overall, it has won 10 games and lost four.
Oklahoma A&M is scheduled to play Tulsa Jan. 28.

Holy Cross Is Top Team In East With 8-0 Mark
By UNITED PRESS
Holy Cross, a regular visitor to post-season basketball tournaments since the end of World War II, can count on another tourney berth this year because it appears far and away the best team in New England.
The Crusaders, ranked 13th nationally, racked up their 12th win in 14 starts last night in Worcester, Mass., by an emphatic 81-67 score over Dartmouth. More important, the win gave Holy Cross a perfect 8-0 record against New England rivals.
Oklahoma City Upset
Holy Cross has appeared in the National Invitation Tournament for the last two years, winning it in 1954. But it also could be tapped for a berth in the NCAA tournament, which it won in 1947.
Oklahoma City, ranked 17th nationally, was last night's big upset victim, bowing to Seattle, 84-89, in overtime, at Seattle. It was only the third loss in 13 starts for Oklahoma City. The two teams meet again tonight.
Only a slim court program was offered last night, but tonight's features a number of top-flight games.
Dayton, ranked second to San Francisco nationally, plays host to Villanova in one feature and a victory would enable the Flyers to match San Francisco's perfect 13-0 record for the season.

By HARRY ELLIOTT (Daily Kansan Sports Editor)
The howls of protest are still being raised over the officiating of the K-State game last Saturday at Manhattan and the Iowa State game here Monday.
To the rabid KU fan, the officials seem to favor the other teams. To the neutral observer, both sides are getting a bad deal.
No matter which side the basketball fan is on, this condition is highly displeasing.
Maybe it's just that the game goes too fast for some of the older game officials to follow everything, but at any rate, something should be done about getting some better or more competent men on the job.
The reign of this editor over his crew of sports reporters comes to an end today.
It's probably trite to say that it has been an enjoyable nine weeks working with these people in order that the sports fans of the campus can find out what's happening in the world of competition, but it has been fun.
The new sports editor, who has a great interest in this field, is highly qualified we feel for the job and will probably do a great job.
We only hope that he can start work every morning at 7 a.m. (that's when the sports editor's work begins) without going crazy.
The man who will take over this position is Kent Thomas, who has added an assistant sports editor to the last lineage. His assistant will be Bob Lyle.
Good luck and best wishes to them both.
Olson's Manager Demands Rematch
SAN FRANCISCO (U.P.)—Middleweight Champion Sugar Ray Robinson was getting more of a battle today from Carl "Bobo" Olson's manager than he got from the exchampion in winning back the title last month.
Olson's manager, Sid Flaherty of San Francisco, said he would demand Robinson's suspension by the California Athletic Commission if he did not live up to an agreement for a return title fight within 90 days.
Such suspension could result in a Robinson ban in all other National Boxing Association states.
Robinson said he could not get ready for a rematch tentatively set for Feb. 24 and suggested a June date.
The California commission appeared to be in Flaherty's corner.
The Optimists scored a hard-fought victory over AFROTC 38-38. The game was not decided until the last minute. Cal Ellis with 12 points and Tom Runyon with eight led the winners.
In another close game, Battenfeld defeated Slap Happy 33-26. High scorer for the game was Bob Mellott of Slap Happy with 13 points. Gary Shank scored 11 points and Ed Wall nine for Battenfeld.
In the only other game, the Outlaws defeated YMCA 47-46. The scoring for both teams was evenly distributed with Chester Syres of the Outlaws hitting 10 points.
