Twenty-four Prep Teams Advance Into Quarter-final Games Today
Wichita East and Newton, co-favorites to clash in the finals Saturday night in Emporia for the Class AA state high school basketball championship led the march into second round play today.

Manhattan, Kan. (U.P.)—A brilliant 91 to 72 victory over Illinois university, Big Ten champion, today stamped Kansas State's champions of the Big Seven conference as a definite threat in the N.C.A.A. championships opening in Kansas City next Wednesday.
K-State Tunes Up For NCAA By Downing Illinois, 91-72
Ranked third in the nation in the final United Press poll, Kansas Ten rival with a smashing offensive in the final half.
Husky Jack Stone led the attack for scoring 29 points to shatter the Saints individual scoring mark of 21 points, held jointly by Harold Howey and Frank Grove.
The game was close in the first
half, and Illinois led with seven minutes remaining before the intermission. But Stone put on a one-man act and shot K-State to the front at 28-27. The lead shifted during the next few minutes before the Kansans rolled to a 51-46 margin at the half.
NIT Moves Into Semi-Finals Tonight
New York (U.P.)—Coach Honey Russell of Seton Hall said today day he thinks his "giant-killers" can upset Brigham Young tonight in the National Invitation Basketball tournament semi-finals.
Third-seeded Brigham Young was favored over Seton Hall, while top-seeded St. John's was the choice over Dayton in tonight's games to determine Saturday night's finalists at Madison Square Garden.
Russell said he rated six-foot, five-inch Mel Hutchins and Roland Minson, the Cougars' star shotmakers, two of the best players he has seen this season. "But I think we have the height, the bench strength and
the scrap to cope with them," he assured.
Coach Stan Watts of B.Y.U. said his team's chances for victory rested in its ability to handle six-foot, 10-inch Walter Dukes of Seton Hall, the tallest player in the tournament. Dukes, who has scored a total of 39 points in two games and done a brilliant rebounding job, has been the key man in the Pirates' tournament victories.
