Kansas Meets Colorado In Big 7 Game Tonight
Colorado's Buffalos invade Hoch auditorium tonight in the second of a two-game Kansas invasion. The game starts at 7:30 p.m. Saturday night the Buffalos lost to the defending Big Seven champs, Kansas State, 48 to 43, in Manhattan while the Jayhawkers were handing Washington university of St. Louis a 46 to 41 loss in St. Louis.
Kansas has eight wins to Colorado's five in the series that began in 1931. In the last two years the clubs have broken even, each with three wins. Last year the Buffs set a new scoring mark against Kansas in Boulder by sweeping a 77 to 60 victory. The two teams shared sixth place in the Big Seven last year.
In two games last season Kendall Hill, forward, was the leading scorer for Colorado against Kansas. He managed to get 30 points when the Buffers set the 77-point record against Kansas. In the Big Seven tournament in Kansas City in 1947 he got 12 points to be high man for Colorado.
This year Hill has an average of 7.7 points per game in seven games. Big Bob Rolander is the Buffs leading scorer this season. The tall forward has averaged 12.4 marks in seven games so far. Rolander, who stands 6 feet, 5 inches, made 18 points against Oklahoma in Boulder as the Sooners barely managed a 43 to 40 victory.
Kansas Coach "Phog" Allen is expected to start his regular line-up which includes Harold England, and Gene Petersen, forwards; Jerry Waugh, center; and Claude Houchin, and Bill Sapp, guards.
Colorado's coach, Frosty Cox, is a former All-Big Six player at Kansas who learned his basketball under Allen in 1930 and 1931. The former pupil holds a 3-2 edge over Allen since he has been coaching a Colorado.
Bowers Sets Track Record
Pat Bowers, fine arts junior, set a new one-half mile record of 1.56.5 for K.U.'s indoor track in the time trials on Dec. 16. The former of 2.01.5 was set last year by Hal Moore. Glenn Cunningham holds the school indoor record in competition for the one-half mile with a time of 1.57.0 made in 1934.
"Red" Dinsmore, College freshman, set another new K.U. indoor track record by running the 440 yard dash in 52.8. He beat the old record of 53.5 set last year by Emil Schutzel, College sophomore .
Bob Karnes, distance man and captain of this year's track team, holds the K.U. 2 mile record of 9:28.8. He set this record in competition against Missouri last fall. The former record of 9:29.9 was made by Ray Harris in 1939.
Seven lettermen are back on this year's indoor track team. They are: Bob Karnes, distance; John Stites and Richard Wagstaff, quarter mile; Winton Studt, quarter or one-half mile; Bob Crowley, broad jump; Del Norris, high jump; and Herman Wilson, pole vault.
Meade Still Suspended
Mexico City, Mex., Jan. 17—(UP)
Another in a string of attempts by once-famed Don Meade to regain his jockey's license was ended today in failure with a rejection by the Mexican National Racing commission.
Meadie, who was set down here on March 11, 1945 for "ugentlemanly conduct," had asked the commission to reconsider his suspension. But, in a ruling announced last night, the commission maintained his lifetime suspension chiefly because of Mead's "many unfulfilled promises to reform."
Meade had "no comment" on the rejection and it was believed he intended to return to New York. He has also been under suspension in the United States since 1945.

McComb Hits Century Goal
By UNITED PRESS
Billy McComb, 28-year-old center of the St. Louis Flyers, joined the ranks of the American Hockey league's elite today when he posted the 100th goal of his career.
McComb, in his fourth season in the league, hit the century mark last night as the Flyers. Western division leaders, defeated Providence, 9 to 2, before 10,261 fans at St. Louis. The victory enabled St. Louis to retain its three point lead over Pittsburgh, who defeated New Haven, 3 to 1.
In other games, Indianapolis stopped Philadelphia, 7 to 1, Springfield blanked Buffalo, 2 to 0, and Cleveland's three-goal third period gave them a 6 to 5 victory over Hershey in an afternoon game at Cleveland.
If and when the New York Rangers ever emerge from the National Hockey league cellar, they can offer a well-earned vote of thanks to goalie Chuck Rayner, who refuses to fall into a slump and persists in turning in the kind of outstanding performance he did last night.
Rayner was invulnerable in the nets last night as he brushed off 39 assorted shots and helped the Rangers to a 4 to 0 triumph over the fifth-place Toronto Maple Leafs.
Detroit maintained its five-point lead in the league race by edging the Montreal Canadiens. 3 to 2.
The Boston Bruins tightened their hold on second place with a 3 to 1 victory over the Chicago Black Hawks in a rough game featured by a free-for-all and a constant pugilistic undertone.
Baseball Writers Elect Bob Beebe
Chicago, Jan. 17—(UP)—Robert Beebe, sports writer for the Minneapolis Star today headed the American Association of baseball writers.
The group elected Beebe president to succeed Tommy Fitzgerald of the Louisville Courier Journal. They said they planned to present Fitzgerald a gold watch in appreciation for his work as head of the organization.
A sports writers' resolution urging the American association to revive its annual All-Star game, discontinued during the war, will be presented to the American association directors when they meet next month in Louisville, Kolish said.
Other officers elected were Eddie T. Jones of the Toledo Blade, vice-president, and Walter C. Kolish of the association's Louisville headquarters, secretary-treasurer.
Bills-Aggie Tilt Will Headline Week's Card
New York, Jan. 17-(UP)—Still shuddering from their close escape against Drake, the speedy Billikens of St. Louis university found their record of 11 straight victories in great peril today as they headed for a meeting with their "jinx" team.
The Bills are rated the mightiest of the six teams left on the list of unbeaten major basketball teams, but their Thursday night game against the Oklahoma Aggies puts them in the greatest danger of an upset.
It was the Aggies, fanned for their air-proof, water-proof, goal-proof defense, who handed the Billikens two defeats in as many games last year when St. Louis was riding just as high as it is this season. The Billikens would dearly love revenge, but they'd settle for a victory of any kind.
St. Louis fans hope their team hasn't suddenly gone "sour," and wonder if the Bill's 52 to 51 squeaker win over Drake on last Saturday night forecasts more trouble this week. The Bills had to stall desperately for the final minute to pull that one out of the fire.
The Aggies will come into the fray with a nine win, two lost record, the defeats by DePaul and St. Joseph's. They won the Oklahoma City tournament during Christmas week for the fifth straight year, and the big question is, can they slow down and throw into reverse the Billikens' famed attack?
Of the five other unbeaten teams, only Villanova (11-0) is a cinc to survive until next Sunday—the Wildcats are unscheduled this week, as are many other teams due to mid-year examinations.
Minnesota (11-0) two Big Nine dates, with Iowa (8-3) tonight and Indiana (9-3) on Saturday. Western Kentucky (12-0) tangles with Memphis State tomorrow night. Hammile (11-0) faces Augsburg and Akron (10-0) plays Duquesne (9-1) in other games tomorrow.
Cincinnati, a member of the select circle last week, had its victory streak ripped at eight games by Bulton, 74 to 52, last Saturday.
TONIGHT! Cornell-Yale; Purdue-Indiana; Ohio State-Wisconsin; Michigan State-Detroit; Iowa St.-Kansas State; Colorado-Kansas; Kentucky-Georgia Tech; Auburn-Mississippi; Vanderbilt-Mississippi State; Arkansas-TCU; Brigham Young-Denver; Colorado Aggies-Utah; Idaho-Oregon State.
TOMORROW: St. John's—De Paul; Manhattan-Holy Cross; Butler-Notre Dame; Marquette-Loyola (Chicago); Auburn - Mississippi State; State Carolina - Georgia; North Carolina State-Furman; Baylor-Texas; Idaho-Oregon State.
WEDNESDAY: Fordham - Yale;
Seton Hall - Loyola (Baltimore);
Temple - La Salle; St. Joseph's-Albright; Drake-Kansas.
