KU, Iowa State Clash Tonight To Start Week
Both Missouri and Colorado are favored to continue their winning ways into another week, by which time, our educational system being what it is, the athletes will be forced to turn their attention away from hoops to books.
After this week's activity, there will be only one additional game—Iowa State against Colorado—through the balance of January.
But come Feb. 1, the battling will be resumed and it will be broken only rarely as the teams make their spirited bids for the championship shared a year ago by Kansas and Colorado.
More and more, the conference picture is assuming a Missouri hue.
More than anything else it was that "coolness under fire" which enabled Missouri to beat Kansas State Saturday night and remain at the top of the team standings.
A 15-point halftime lead grew to a 17-point margin midway through the second half before K-State, aroused by fanatical cheering of home fans, made a threatening move, but MU won, 94 to 85.
Earlier last week, Colorado, disappointing in the conference tournament in Kansas City in December, but returning to its top

Middlecoff Wins Bing Crosby Open
Pebble Beach, Calif. — (U,P)—Dr. Eary Middlecoff, who has been on the circuit for years, picked up a $3,500 check today for his efforts in the $15,000 Bing Crosby national pro-amateur golf tournament which ended here yesterday.
Middlecoff gave such Johnny-
come-lately as Gene Littler and
Bobby Rosburg a lesson on the
final day of the tournament in
the business of playing under pressure.
Middlecoff sank putts of 30, 30,
and 12 feet when the going was
roughest to fire a one-under-par 71
on one of the toughest courses in
the world. His 54-hole total was
209, to spread-eagle the field in
the pro division by four strokes.
That was worth $2,500.

Los Angeles (U.P.)—End Billy Wilson of San Francisco, who spent as much time in the East's defensive backfield as any of the East's players, was hailed the "most valuable player" in the fifth annual all-star Pro Football bowl game.
Wilson latched onto 11 passes, good for 157 yards and one touchdown, as the West came from behind in the fourth quarter to beat the East, 26 to 19, and cut the East's lead in the series to three games to two.
West Beats East 26-19 in Bowl'
Sharing the spotlight with Wilson were two of his Forty-Niners team-mates—quarterback Y. A. Tittle, who passed to two touchdowns, and fullback Joe Perry, who scored another—and Coach Buck Shaw, the fired Forty-Niner coach, who guided the West team.
It was an afternoon to make Forty-Niner fans among the throng of 43,972 wonder why the Forty-Niners never have won a divisor title.
Also unanswered was the question of Shaw's future. After yesterday's victory, he admitted he still has not decided whether he will stay in football or go into business.
At the outset, it looked as though the West would hand the game to Philadelphia Coach Jim Trimble's Easteners on a platter. With Tittle having trouble holding the snaps from center Leon McLaughlin, the West lost the ball on fumbles three times in its own territory and the East turned two of the bobbles into quick first period scores.
A 35-yard field goal by Detroit's Doak Walker cut the margin to 13-6, but the East snapped back on a 33-yard touchdown pass from Adrian Burk of Philadelphia to the ageless Bones Taylor of the Redskins.
New York —(U.P.)— Twenty-year-old Floyd Patterson of Brooklyn, ranked fourth among light heavyweight contenders, engages in his first 10-round bout tonight against Don Grant of Los Angeles at Brooklyn's Eastern Parkway arena.

The second half was highlighted by frequent scrambles for the ball and exchange of baskets. Forbes found the scoring range in the second half, but it was too late. The Jayhawks dominated the rebounding, and their defense, although shaggy in spots, made it
