Jayhawks Blast Oklahoma; Tackle Tough Tulsa Tonight
Kansas Breaks Four Records In Regaining Big Seven Lead
By KEN BRONSON
Kansan Sports Editor
Breaking four scoring records, Kansas climbed back into a tie for first place with Colorado Saturday night when the Jayhawkers dealt Oklahoma a 93-80 defeat.
Now the Jayhawks play the Tulsa Hurricane in Tulsa tonight. And this one appears to be just as rough as the one was Saturday night.
The Jayhawkers' 93 points Saturday night was the most points a Kansas team ever tallied against an opponent, besting the 92 points rang up against Southwest Missouri State in the 1952 Olympic playoffs. It was also the high mark for the Jayhawkers against a Big Seven foe, wiping out the old record of 90 points against Nebraska in 1952.

KU Drops Two Swimming Meets
The Kansas swimming team dropped its second and third duel meets in as many starts, as they lost to Denver 57-36 and to Colorado 45-41 in duals held over the week-end.
Lack of strength in the back stroke and breast stroke defeated KU in the Colorado meet. In these two events Kansas was outscored 16-2. Kansas' Don Burton was the high scorer in the Colorado meet with 11 points. Dick Eflin of Kansas scored 10 points for place-up honors. Gail Boo won place-up in yard free style and the 100-yard free style, and Burton won first place in the 220-yard free style and the 440-yard free style.
Effin won the 50-yard free style in the Denver meet—the only first place which Kansas won.

Besides that, the score was the highest ever run up in the Sooner fieldhouse, erasing the old mark of 86 set by Illinois last December. And it erased the Jayhawk-Sooner high of 87, which Kansas chalked up last year against the Sooners in Lawrence.

But the Jayhawkers will need all of that securing punch and probably more tonight against the Golden Hurricane.
The Hurricane is being paced this year by Dick Nunneley and Bob Patterson, Nunneley, the Hurricane co-captain, has been the leading gun of late, marking up 15 points against St. Louis and 17 against Bradley. Patterson however is the Hurricane's top scorer.
Tusa is currently riding a 3-game winning streak which includes victories over St. Louis, Bradley, and Houston. The hosts were beaten by Kansas, 73-61, last December in Hoch.

But the Jayhawkers were quick to break the game wide open early in the third period. In that space of 10 minutes, the Hawks scored 28 points while Oklahoma was hitting only 15. At one time during the period, the Jayhawkers outsored the Sooners, 20-4.
In the game Saturday night, Kansas took an early lead and hung on to a 6-point advantage at the end of the first two periods. The Jay-hawkers led 20-14 at the end of the first period and 46-40 at halftime.
B. H. Born came out of semi-retirement to spur the Kansas victory with 28 points, the second time this year he has attained that peak. And he potted that total despite missing 10 of 18 free throws.
A late surge by Oklahoma, headed by Les Lane and Ron Blue cut the Kansas margin down to 13 points at the end of the game. The Sooners outscored the Jayhawkers, 25-19 in the last period.
He got able assistance from Dallas Dobbs, Harold Patterson, and Allen Kelley. Dobbs pushed in 17 for his top production this year, Patterson chipped in with 16 more, and Kelley added 11. Every player who got into the game scored for Kansas.
It was little Lane who again proved to be the thorn in Kansas' side. The little speedster matched his earlier 25-point outburst against Kansas, hitting eight fielders and nine charities in this one.
DAKOTA DARKHORSE—Chris Divich, 6-2 forward from Doland, S.D., is expected to bolster Kansas basketball forces during the 1954 stretch drive. Divich, who became eligible last week, is a transfer from Kansas State. He saw action in the Oklahoma game Saturday and is expected to see more action in the Tulsa contest tonight.
Colorado Can Take Big Seven Lead Tonight
Kansas State's victory over Nebraska, coupled with victories by Kansas and Colorado, moved the Big Seven back into a tie today but that situation may be cleared up tonight.
In tonight's only conference game, Colorado plays at Nebraska Kansas plays at Tulsa in a non-conference encounter.
If Colorado should defeat Nebraska, the Buffers would be in sole possession of first place. But if the Cornhuskers rebound from their defeat to Kansas State and whip the Buffers, then the race would be fouled in a 3-way deadlock.
Kansas and Colorado, the leaders today, had opposite experiences Saturday night. Kansas wasn't pressed to defeat Oklahoma, 93-80, but the Buffs defeated Iowa State 67-55, en

a tip-in by Jim Ranglos with one second left to play.
Kansas State surprised Nebraska with a last quarter burst that left the Cornhuskers reeling. Leading only by four points going into the final period, Kansas State went on to defeat the unbeaten Cornhuskers, 91-70.
In games this week, Missouri travels to Oklahoma tomorrow night and then plays host to Houston in a non-league game Saturday. Oklahoma, in the meantime, plays Oklahoma A&M at Stillwater Saturday night.
Nebraska comes to Kansas Saturday while Kansas State plays host to Iowa State.
