Coach Vie Bradford's Kansas baseball team showed less hitting power than we expected in the two-game series with Missouri Friday and Saturday. The Jayhawker batters managed to push runs across in only one inning out of the 21 played.
Much of the lack of Kansas batting punch in Friday's game should be credited to the masterful hurling job turned in by Stewart Flintays. Tiger righthander. He is considered the top pitcher in Big Six competition, and he demonstrated why against the Jayhawkers.
Finlayson worked easily throughout the game, seeming to improve as the contest wore on. He allowed an occasional Kansas hit but was invincible with men on base. "Red" Hogan put wood to the ball in leading off the second innning with a double against the right field incline, but he was left stranded on second base.
Anderson led off the Kansas ninth with a booming triple, but the Tiger hurler bore down to retire May, DeLuna, and Hogan, the last two on strikeouts.
After his second inning double, Hogan had trouble solving the Tiger pitcher's slants. Finlayson kept tossing books at the Kansas redhead in his last three trips to the plate. Hogan struck out twice and grounded to the pitcher in these latter appearances.
Walt Diehl, Kansas catcher, went down swinging three times as Finlayson whipped his fast one across. The Jayhawker backstop was also having hard luck all day with his pegs to second. They were all to the right of the bag.
Bob Spinks, the Missouri right fielder, was the hitting star of the series. He clouted five hits in nine times at bat in the two games. Included in his Friday production of base knocks were two triples.

Men's intramural sports begin to swing into final sessions this week. The intramural swimming meet opens with preliminaries today at the Robinson gymnasium pool. The aquatic events should attract much interest since a number of outstanding swimmers are entered.
Judged by comparative times, University sideline statisticians have estimated that Kansas could have sent men to Iowa State for the conference swimming meet who would have walked off with the title.
Intramural softball is scheduled to go into playoff games Thursday. Eight teams, divisional winners and runners-up, will compete. Phi Delta Theta, last year's champion, is back again with Ray Evans on the bench. The Chi nine, led by terrific hitting power and the pitching of Odd Williams, is conceded the best chance of upsetting the Phi Delts.

Phi Delts Shutout Phi Kappa, 4-0, As Evans Whiffs Nine
Ray Evans bested Jim Carroll in a pitchers duel as Phi Delta Theta defeated Phi Kappa 4-0 in an intramural softball game played Monday. Evans gave up one hit and struck out nine Phi Kappa batters. Carroll was touched for four hits as the Phi Delts scored once in the third, twice in the fourth, and once in the fifth.
It was the first loss of Phi Kappa and ties them with the Phil Delt for the lead of division three.
1146 Club Unsets Teke

The TKE's scored three runs in the last inning, but it was not enough to overcome an early 1146 Club lead and the game ended 10-8 in favor of the 1146 team.
Battenfeld A Winner
Battenfeld came from behind in the seventh to win their game from Gamma Delts 10-9. Trailing 9-8 going into the last inning, the Battenfeld nine scored the tying and winning runs on a walk, two stolen bases, and two hits.
Wesley scored 12 runs in the fifth inning of their game with the 941 Club and won 15-14. Seven walks and five well timed hits enabled the winners to count their dozen tallies in the fifth. Sutton hit a home run for the 941 Club in the third. Beta's Still Unbeaten
The Bets remained undefeated by trouncing Delta Upsilon 11-2. Bill Conboy, Beta pitcher, tossed a three his game and struck out 12 opponents. Jones homered for Beta in the third with one man one base.
Rosenfield and Jensen hit home runs for the Sig Alphas when they swamped Kappa Eta Kappa 29-11. Alpha Kappa Psi defeated Alpha Chi Sigma 9-4 in a well played game.
