Sigma Nu In Bowling Tie
The Sigma Nu bowlers leaped into a tie for the lead in the inter-fraternity bowling league by taking three games from Sigma Chi while the pace-setting Sig Ep's were winning two and losing one against Triangle in the last matches before Thanksgiving.
The two leaders each have won 17 and lost four although the Sig Ep's have a team average of 12 points per man over their close rivals. However, the high team total for the league is held by the Pi K. A.'s, currently in third place one game behind the two leaders.

Louis, Promoter Argue On Gloves
New York — (UP) — A dispute flared today over what brand of boxing gloves Champion Joe Louis will use tomorrow night in his heavyweight title fight with Jersey Joe Walcott at Madison Square garden.
A dispute was between Louis and Sol Strauss, acting director of the 20th Century club, which is promoting the $230,000 event.
Strauss insists that the champion use gloves manufactured by the Ben Lee company; but Louis insists that he wear mitts made by the Everlast company, with whom he has signed a contract. According to Strauss, the controversy will be tossed into the lap of Col. Edward P. F. Eagan, chairman of the New York Boxing commission.
Strauss explained, "Section Two of the commission's rules specifically provides that boxers in main and semi-final events shall wear gloves furnished by the club management."
Marshall Miles, Louis' manager,
gave the champion's side "Everlast
has made special gloves to fiJoe. He
has extremely long thumbs, and if
the gloves aren't made just right, he's
liable to tear off his thumb nails during
a fight. The Ben Lee gloves
don't fit his thumbs."

Nevada Reconsiders Goes To Salad Bowl
Phoenix, Ariz.—(UP)—The Salad Bowl, its New Year's Day teams finally lined up, was selling tickets like hotcakes today for what looked like the year's biggest grudge game.
University of Nevada finally agreed to meet North Texas State, but not until after it withdrew from the game on grounds that North Texas was not an opponent of equal caliber.
"We've given North Texas 20 points by this beef," a Nevada end said after the team voted to play "we're going to be in for a rough game."

KU Sets New Crowd Mark
Kansas's unbeaten 1947 football team, which hit a new grid high for the school by accepting a bid to the Orange bowl, also left seven attendance records in its wake.
Business manager Earl Falkenstien announced here today that the Jay-hawkers had drawn 236,376 fans in their 10-game march to their second co-championship.
This figure easily eclipsed last year's mark of 199,504 paying customers for the same number of games. Of this total 113,200 swarmed through the gates for five home games, including the T.C.U. engagement in Kansas City, thus toppling last year's high of 106,504 at Mt. Oread and Kansas City.
Most impressive of the four single-game figures was the 40,043 which overflowed Memorial stadium here for the first time in history to watch the Kansas-Missouri title clash Nov. 22. Previous high was the 33,000 who watched Nebraska edge K. U., 16-14, last season. Kansas and the Tigers had set a standard of 31,200 here in 1929.
Other single-game records include the 34,700 who saw the Jayhawkers and Oklahoma at Norman, the 17,500 which sat in on the Kansas-Iowa State game here Oct. 4, and the 25,000 which cheered the KU-Denver battle in the Mile High city Sept. 26.
The Sooner and Cyclone totals represent series records for their games with Kansas while the Denver crowd was the biggest which ever witnessed a night game or an opening game in that city.
