Intramural Basketball Playoffs Begin With 4"A" Games Tonight In Annex
By ALAN MARSHALL Daily Kansan Assistant Sports Editor
Intramural basketball playoffs move into full swing tonight with two independent "A" and two fraternity "A" games on tap. The tournament is a single-elimination affair and is scheduled on eightteam brackets.
All "A" games are played on the full court in Robinson annex and the "B" games are run off on half-courts in Robinson gymnasium.
The Beta's, all-University champions last season, are again the team to beat. With the nucleus of last year's squad returning, they present a powerful and experienced offense that has run up convincing scores throughout the season.
Sig Ep and Phi Gam took honors in their respective divisions and each moves into the playoffs sporting a long string of victories. The Sig Ep's had to fight their way through a tough division that saw three teams finish in second place, each with two defeats.
The Phi Gam's had an equally difficult time in division play. The outcome was in doubt until the final games of the regular season but it was the Fiji's rebounding and accuracy that turned the trick.
Five of the eight teams in the fraternity "A" bracket ended the season deadlocked for second. Kappa Sig, Phi Psi, and D.U. had to fight it out among themselves to decide the entrants into playoffs, the Kappa Sigs and D.U.'s winning out.
Another instance of three teams tied for second occurred in Division II between Sigma Chi, Phi Kappa Sig, and Sigma Nu. Each of these teams lost two regular games and it took playoff games before the Sigma
Chi's and Phi Kappa Sig's were eligible for the championship eliminations.
The A.T.O.'s took undisputed second place in their league, losing only to the Phi Gam's.
Here's the first round game schedule, all of which are played in Robinson annex:

7 p.m. A.T.O. vs. Kappa Sig.
8 p.m. Sig Ep vs. D.U.
4 p.m. Phi Gam vs. Phi Kappa Sig.
5 p.m. Beta vs. Sigma Chi.
Six teams, along with two byes, make up the entries into independent "A" playoffs. The Dark Horse's, Battenfeld, and the Draggin' 5 took undisputed firsts in their divisions. Second place teams are Last Chance, Unnatural 5, and Oread.
The Dark Horse team presents almost the identical squad that last year lost only one game, that being the all-University championship game to a big and fast Beta outfit. Boasting some deadly long-shot artists and two powerful rebounders, the dark Horses are a definite threat to repeat last year's record.
First round independent "A" schedules, played in Robinson annex are:
