K-State Humbles Jayhawkers 63-36
FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 25, 1940
Rick Harman did everything but kick in two pointers as he led his Kansas State mates to a 63 to 36 trouncing over the visiting Kansas Jayhawkers Thursday night at Manhattan.
In the first four minutes the slim jumping jack forward hit four baskets without a miss to give the Wildcats a 12 to 4 lead. Then he really got hot. In fact Harman scored 16 points the $ ^{*} $
first half, just two more than the entire Kansas team could count.
Kansas was cold in every department and the Aggies outhustled, outbounded, and outshot the K.U. five the entire game.
It wasn't exactly a one man show though, Lloyd Krone hit 9 points and Clarence Brannum collected 11. One of Brannum's baskets was a swishing hook shot from the free throw lane which brought rousing cheers from the 2,800 Wildcat fans who jammed Nickols gymnasium to witness the rout.
The one bright spot in the Kansas defeat was the hustling play of forward Buddy Bull. He scored 7 points during the evening and grabbed most of the rebounds that Kansas managed to sneak from the backboards.
Gene Petersen was high scorer for K.U. with 11 points but missed 7 free throws. Harman collected twenty counters on seven baskets and six free throws to lead the Aggies.
With a 30 to 4 halftime lead it was evident that Coach Jack Gardner's boys were on their way to their sixth Big Seven win and a tighter hold on their third place standing. Then throughout the second half they scored almost at will, and passed up several shots in order to keep control of the ball.
Kansas did most of its shooting from far out because of a tight defense the Aggies threw up around the Jayhawker basket. On the other hand the Wildcats hit from anywhere, and scored both from a fast break and a rolling defense.
The defeat was the sixth Big Seven loss for Kansas and dropped them to sixth place in league standings.

Williams 'Happy' In Florida
Over $90.000 1949 Contract
Boston, Feb. 25—(U.P.)—Ted Williams, the American league batting king vacationing in Florida, was reported to be "very happy" today over the excellent fishing and a 1849 contract under which the Boston Red Sox will pay him between $60,000 and $90,000.
Williams told General Manager Joe Cronin in a telephone conversation from Everglades, Fla., that he had signed his contract and was in "rare" condition. He said he was looking for a 400 batting average this season.
He also reportedly had been looking for a straight salary of $100,000.
The best estimate of Ted's pay for last year was $80,000 and Williams said he had been given a "nice raise." But it seemed unlikely that he was boosted beyond the $90,000 the New York Yankees are supposed to be paying Joe Di Maggio.
Aggies Still In Big 7 Race
BY UNITED PRESS
The Kansas State Wildcats today moved into sniping position in the first division of the Big Seven basketball race, after consolidating third place last night with a red hot 63 to 36 win over Kansas at Manhattan.
That one left the K-Staters only a couple of games behind second running Oklahoma, and four off the pace set by Nebraska. And it jumped them two games ahead of fourth ranked Missouri.
With the Wildcats showing a lot of the famous style that placed them well to the front in the national cage picture last year, a running start—even this late in the season—could make Kansas State a dangerous contender.
Kansas, humiliated before a Manhattan crowd, dropped to sixth place. Formerly tied for fifth with Colorado, Phog Allen's sad Jayhawks skipped a full game behind the Buffalos from Boulder.
There was some consolation. Kansas can't go much lower, Iowa State seemed to have a firm grip on the Big Seven cellar with a record of one win in nine conference starts. The standings.

Alpha Kappa Psi Wins Business Hat
A blue and gold banded straw hat became the trophy of a basketball victory Thursday.
Alpha Kappa Psi defeated Delta Sigma Pi by a 32 to 29 score. This game represented the first of what the School of Business plans to make an annual affair between the two professional business fraternities. The hat will be awarded to the winning organization's president, to be in his possession for the year.
Dick Yaple, president of the Business School association, awarded the hat to Robert Parrish, president of Alpha Kappa Psi. He is to wear the trophy at all official business activities.
It has been proposed that the name of the winning team and president should be painted on the top of the hat.
At the end of the first quarter Alpha Kappa Psi lead 4 to 2. By the half they held a 17 to 12 advantage but in the latter part of the game Delta Sigma Pi tied up the score after which the lead was exchanged. However in the closing minutes Alpha Kappa Psi moved to a 3 point lead which they managed to hold to win the game.
Philadelphia, Feb. 25—U.P.)—Frank Palumbo, young night club impresario, said he would telephone Joe Louis in the West Indies today and offer him $300,000 to defend his crown against Lee Savold next summer.
Leonard H. Axe, dean of the School of Business, officiated the first quarter of the game.
Offers Louis $300,000
Palumbo said he planned to stage the bout in Philadelphia's vast municipal stadium, which can accommodate a fight crowd of 125,000.
As an added inducement, the 35-year-old Palumbo offered Louis a privilege of 47 per cent of the movie, radio and television rights.

The faculty representatives of the Big Seven will be meeting in Kansas City today and tomorrow at the same time the conference indoor track meet will be held. Just what they will be discussing hasn't been announced to the public.
If Bob Karnes can repeat as the winner of the two-mile in Kansas City he will be the first man in conference records to win that event three straight times. If he wins both the mile and two-mile he will be the third runner to do that in the conference. Oklahoma's Floyd Lochner and Iowa State's Bill Arlen are the only two distance men to turn the trick so far.
Karnes' toughest competition will come from Missouri's Bill McGuire. McGuire set a new Missouri record when they Jayhawks were at Columbia. He ran the distance in 4:15.4 while Karnes was placing second in the race. The Kansas running ace has been bothered with a cold for most of the season. He did not enter the two-mile event against Missouri or Nebraska.
Karnes lost the mile at Boulder to Colorado's George Fitzmorris in the slow time of 10.11.2. Other distance men who may bother Karnes and McGuire in their personal feud are Bill Jacobs, Oklahoma; Bill Mountford, Nebraska; and Gene Shaver, Iowa State.
Missouri and Nebraska have been given first and second places in the meet. The Tigers should have enough left in spite of graduating stars to win the affair. They won from the Cornhuskers 62 2/3 to 41 1/3 in a dual meet this year. Kansas Oklahoma, Kansas State, and Colorado will fight it out for third place.
The big game of the week in the Missouri Valley will be played tomorrow night in St. Louis. The Oklahoma Aggies will try for another victory over St. Louis university. The Cowpokes can cinch a tie if they win again.
A big share of the excitement was taken from K.U.'s basketball schedule when the Aggies didn't show up on it this year. The rivalry between the schools has always been intense and the personal competition between "Phog" Allen and Hank Iba has added a great deal. "Phog" says that they will be back on the schedule, but that the two schools couldn't get together this year.
Iowa State college has chosen their game with Kansas State college as their homecoming football affair for 1949. It will be played in Ames on Saturday, October 15.
That's the opinion of towboat and barge men, who point out that the Dravo company, Pittsburgh, Pa., a leading manufacturer of inland waterway boats, has launched a hull every three days during 1948 and on Jan. 1, 1949 had orders for 110 more to be launched.
Davenport, Iowa—U(P)—The Mississippi river is headed for its biggest navigation season this spring.

Senior and freshman "A" teams will go into the finals of the women's basketball playoffs Tuesday, March 1, having defeated their semifinal opponents Wednesday night. The seniors took the sophomore "A" squad 37 to 23 while the freshmen defeated the junior "A" squad 44 to 37.
New types of barges will bring greater cargoes at faster speed up the Mississippi this year. One barge consists of 15 oil sections that form a single tow 1,126 feet long. The sections are towed three abreast and can be double-locked through the Mississippi locks.
Seniors Spill Sophs 37-23
In the senior-sophomore tilt the upperclassmen led all the way. Tall Kathleen McClanahan paced the scoring, sinking 19 points. Betty van der Smissen and Gerry Clark also helped the seniors with 8 points each. Larry Ross and Marilyn Smith sparked the sophomores with 15 and 6 points, respectively.
The freshman combined speed and accuracy to pound out a win over the juniors in the fastest game of the evening. Two fast forwards, Barbara Quinn and Shirley Mickelson, hit consistently for the freshmen, picking up 13 and 19 points. Although the Juniors led at the half by 2 points, the freshman went wild in the third quarter and couldn't be stopped. Shirley Hoffman took both game and team scoring honors for the juniors by sinking 23 points. Lovelace was second high for the Juniors with 12.
Are You One Who Forgot? Be One Who Remembered!
Smile, Darn Ya! Smile!
In the "B" team games, the juniors and sophomores were victors. The juniors defeated the freshman "B" 26 to 17, and the sophomores rolled to a 24 to 15 win over the seniors.

Second Place A Goal In CIC League Race
Rv UNITED PRESS
The battle for second place honors in the Central conference was snarled today like the yarn in Grandma's knitting basket.
Interest in the C.I.C. shifted long ago from first to second place. The Emporia State Hornets bottled up the conference cage crown in mid-season, and were still batting 1.000 per cent today.
In games tonight, the Ravens from Atchison will put their high standing in the grab bag and tangle with Southwestern at Atchison, and Pittsburg will travel all the way to Emporia to lose another one to invincible State.
