Jayhawkers Twist Tiger's Tail To Tune Of 59 To 52
Bv BOB LEONARD
The Jayhawker's bill was big enough to twist the Tiger's tail but it took a powerful jerk on that tail in the second half for Dr. Allen's team to go ahead and win going away, 59 to 52. Clyde Lovellette scored 39 points to break the Big Seven scoring record of 38 points made in one game established by Gerald Tucker of Oklahoma in 1943.
The Jayhawkers could not seem to get going in the first half and Bud Heineman, Tiger forward, just couldn't seem to miss. Heineman racked up 17 points in the period and turned in the goal of the score almost at will. The Tigers led 36 to 32 at the half.
Lovellette, playing what was perhaps his best conference game, performed brilliantly in all phases of play. He held Missouri center Don Stroot to two points in the first half while he was collecting 23 markers before intermission.
Bill Lienhard opened the scoring with a long push shot from the corner. Missouri came right back with Heineman dropping in two quick goals and Stroot one to give the Tigers a 6 to 2 lead. Lovellie hooked one in from the key hole to narrow the gap but again Heineman hit from the side. Lovellie scored from in front of the basket and Heineman followed with a set shot to make the score 10 to 6.
Stroet fouled Bill Lienhard and the Newton forward pushed it through. M.U.'s Lafferty hit two straight and Heineman and Stauffer hit a free throw apiece to increase the Tiger lead to 18 to 7.
Lovellette hit two more goals to match the fielders by Murrey and Heineman. Missouri now held a 22 to 12 lead. It was Heineman and Stauffer who now traded goals with Lovellette to bring the score to 26 to 16.
Hougland hit a free throw followed by a quick goal by Lovellette. Big Clyde fouled Jerry Fowler while in the act of shooting and the Missouri forward made good both shots. A bad KU. pass resulted in another goal by Fowler.
Harold England, playing an excellent defensive game, went through the key hole to get two points but Heineman again scored when the Tigers got possession of the ball. Lovellette now caught fire as he poured in four field goals to bring the K.U. total to 32 as the half ended.
Missouri picked up five quick points on fouls at the beginning of the second half to increase their lead
to 41 to 32 before England hit two free throws to bring the Kansans back in the game. Lovellette and Stroot traded fielders that brought the count to 43 to 36.
K. U. came back with the free throws by England and Houchin and a field goal by Lovellette. Stroot hit again for the Tigers but Lovellette, with eight minutes left to play, dumped in three baskets to tie the score at 46-all.
When Bob Kenney hit a long shot to make the score 48 to 46 in favor of the Jayhawkers, the Kansans were never again behind. Lovellett scored four times to gain an edge on Missouri's Lafferty who counted for two fielders. During the final three minutes, the Tigers employed a rushing defense but the Jayhawkers controlled the ball effectively.

KU Loses Close Track Dual To OU By 1 Point
University of Oklahoma trackmen had to take the last two events in order to eke out a narrow $52_{1/2}$ to $51_{1/2}$ dual meet victory from University of Kansas thin-clads in an indoor meet held at the North Campus gym in Norman Feb. 18.
Trailing by 11 points with only the mile relay and broad jump left in the competition, Sooner Harriers out on a brilliant comeback to win the relay and take the first two places in the broad jump.
The relay team composed of Jerry Meader, Jack Lockikett, Kenneth Biggins and Charles Coleman was hard pressed by a veteran Kansas crew but managed to gain a narrow decision. Broadjumper Merwin McConnell clinched the meet for Oklahoma when he made a leap of 23 feet on his last jump to move into first place in that event and thus assure Sooner Dick Jones of Oklahoma second place with a jump of 22.61 feet.
Bill Carroll, Sooner pole vaulter,
came within three-fourths of an
inch of tieing the Oklahoma record
in that event when he cleared the
crossbar at 14 feet $ \frac{3}{4} $ inch.
Carroll had set the record of 14.1 the past year. Several new records for dual meet competition between the schools were set including shot put, mile run, 440-yard run, 2-mile run, 880-yard run and the broad jump.

Drake
The Jayhawkers will attempt to win their 11th game of the season and their second victory over Drake when Dr. Allen's cagers meet the Bulldogs at Des Moines tonight. K.U. defeated Drake 76 to 50 here Jan. 30.
Each team will lead with an outstanding ace. K.U.'s Lovellette will attempt to show Des Moines cage fans the reason he is ranked as the country's top sophomore. He will be matched with John Rennicke, 6 foot 3 inch forward, who has scored more than 18 points a game to lead Missouri Valley scorers.
Coach Jack McClelland's Bulldogs have won 12 and lost nine in averaging 58 points a game.
At home, Drake has an impressive 10 won and four lost record. Among the Bulldogs' victories are wins over Detroit 67 to 53, and Creighton 76 to 60. Creighton defeated K.U. 59 to 55 earlier this year.
Kansas had little trouble in rolling over Drake 76 to 50 earlier this year here with Coach F. C. Allen using 17 players in the contest. The Jayhawkers led 43 to 25 at halftime and showed fine defensive play by holding the Bulldogs to 13 field goals.
In the Drake contest here, Lov-
Drake hopes will fall heavily on Rennicke, high scoring forward who is averaging 18.1 points a contest. Art Olrich, 5 foot 9 inch forward, will be the other front line starter.
Drake will again face a height disadvantage that handicapped them in the first game. The Bulldogs lost two centers, Don Siekfer and Verle Burgason, in trying to stop Lovellette in the first meeting.
Payne's time was 2 minutes, 35.4 seconds, shaving exactly one second off from the old varsity record of 2 minutes, 36.4 seconds set by Stan Jarvis in 1938.
The summary is as follows:
Bob Edman, K.U. sprinter, gathered 12 points for the Jayhawk squad in winning the 100 and 220-yard free style sprints. He also swam the anchor leg of the winning K.U. 400-yard free style relay team.
Captain Herb Rothbart will stand at guard and is expected to quarterback the Bulldogs offensive play.
ellette set a new individual single game scoring record for Kansas with 36 points as he connected on 15 of 30 attempts from the field and added six out of seven free throws. Lovelletta's 39 points against Missouri Feb. 17 broke this record, but 36 points is still the highest ever scored in a non-conference game by a K.U. player.
50-yard free style: Grimm, NU,
first; Hawkins, K.U., second; Kaname-
nure, N.U., third. Time. 24.8 seconds.
100-yard free style; Edman, K.U.
first; Kanamine, N.U., second; Hawkins,
K.U. third, Time, 56.3 seconds.
A new Jayhawk Varsity record was set by Tom Payne in the 200-yard breaststroke as the Kansan's were defeated by Nebraska, 45 to 38, in a dual swimming meet held in Robinson pool, Feb. 17.
