KU,KS Tied In Big 7 Race
Kansas City, Mo. Feb. 2-(UP)—Take a look at the Big Seven standings today and ring Feb. 18 and March 1 on your calendar.
On those dates, the basketball machine of Kansas State college and the University of Kansas collide and the results of those encounters may dictate the head that will wear the crown.
Right now the bitter intra-state rivalns are rounding the far curve, neck and neck, each with three wins and no losses.
It's a rare place for the Wildcats and it's a rare team that is wearing the purple and white this year. K.U. Comes Up
To Kansas a title chase is nothing new. But this year Phog Allen's team was sold short in the early reckoning. Now with the addition of the powerful Otto Schnellbacher, Kansas is making them sit up and take notice.
On Feb. 18, the first of that magic pair of dates, Kansas invades Manhattan to be entertained by Clarence Brannum and company.
While awaiting Feb. 18, the conference moves along its appointed course. In conference games this week Kansas State takes to the road for games tonight at Colorado and Saturday night against a toughening Missouri team.
Nebraska Here Saturday
Kansas has a Saturday night meeting with Nebraska at Lawrence and Colorado moves eastward at the time for another try at third place Iowa State.
Missouri sounded a warning buzzer Saturday night as it knocked off Oklahoma 49-43 to pull into a fourth place tie with the Sooners. Once the Tigers get to clicking to the fullness of their possibilities, they'll be tough for any team in the league.
At the same time, Kansas State moved easily through a Nebraska team which started its six-foot, nine-inch Bus Whitehead for the first time. The score was 64-45 and the game once more demonstrated the ability of the Wildcats.
US Skaters May Win Medal
St. Moritz, Feb. 2—(UP)—Dick Button, 18-year-old England, N.J., star, gave America its first hope for an Olympic gold medal today as he held a commanding lead after the first three figures in the compulsory figure skating competition, as European athletes won the 1500-meter speed skating and men's and women's downhill skiing events.
Button, U. S. and European champion, appeared headed for top honors in the compulsory figures event, the first half of the Olympic figure skating competition, as he received five or better scores from each of the nine judges in every effort but one to lead Hans Gerschwiler, the world champion from Switzerland.

Despite the Kansas loss to Oklahoma A. & M., the outlook for the 1948 basketball season is becoming increasingly brighter. At the start of the current season, Phog Allen was doing more than his usual share of meaning, and K. U. fans were in the dumps.
Sports Spotlight
By BOB DELLINGER Daily Kansan Sports Editor
A green team with only one veteran was the Kansas crop. Inexperience would tell, and the Jayhawker record would be a sad one. Inexperience did tell on the young squad at the start of the season, but the Jayhawkers were quick to learn from the veteran coach and his one "stabilizing" assistant, Otto Schnellbacher.
Kansas started slowly, dropping a game to the off-and-on Emporia Teachers by a record score. The defense was pitiful for the first few games with the opponents cracking the 60-point mark four times, totaling seven since 1898.
William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska was nominated for the Presidency of the U. S. three times by the Democratic party..
