'The Canary'
Peck is fast-moving and hard-driving on offense and is a top-flight defense man, especially against small opponents. He is a senior, playing his third and last year.
This is Owen Peck, quarterback of the Kansas squad. The 5 foot 9 inch center from Kansas City was a regular on last year's Kansas squad and has started most of the games this year.
Recognition Is Given To Defeated Teams That Have Lost Heavily In Basketball
New York—(UP)—As college basketball teams sought tournament bids today on the basis of their records some recognition appeared due those teams which have contributed so heavily to the records—by losing.
School of applied science stood highest on the preferred list of
Case School of applied science opponents with a record of 22 straight defeats—eight last year and 14 this season. The Cleveland College's latest outing was a pleasure for Buffalo U., which won $3 to 44.
Even unhappier was Idaho, which has won four and lost 23.
Texas Christian, once one of the nation's most feared teams on the gridiron, today is one of the best-liked on the court, for the Horned Frogs have won once in 22 games. They have lost nine of 10 in the Southwest conference.
Other outstanding losers were Concordia of Fort Wayne, the Colorado Aggies, Wichita, Lehigh, Citadel and Auburn.
Concordia has ended its nine-game season with a defeat in each game.
The Colorado Aggies have lost nine of 10 Big Seven conference games and have a season record of three victories and 18 losses.
Wichita is the patsy of the Missouri conference race with no victories and 10 losses in loop play, and Lehigh has lost all seven of its Middle Atlantic conference starts.
Auburn had even a tougher time in the Southeastern conference, where Kentucky is king, and lost 15 out of 16 games. Mississippi, has suffered 11 defeats in 13 starts in the Southeastern conference.
139 Measures Flood Legislative Docket
A three-bill school assistance program to furnish Kansas schools with $15,000,000 a year reached the house today.
Topeka, Kan., Feb. 24. (UP)—Kansas legislators wait until just before a bill introduction deadline to unload 139 measures today.
A veterans bonus bill, estimated to cost 200 million dollars to benefit Kansas World War II service men and women was introduced. There was a bill to cut short the life of the one-cent gas tax. There was a bill to tax Kansas-made denatured and industrial alcohol estimated to bring in a million dollars in new revenue.
Dean Will Exchange 'M' Card For Tickets
Would you rather see all university of Minnesota athletic contests free than the remaining University of Kansas home basketball games? If so you can do business with Dean George B. Smith of the School of Education.
As plain George Smith, Minnesota undergraduate, he excelled in the sprints and won letters in track. His membership in the "M" club brings an annual pass to all Minnesota contests. However, since his graduation in 1929 has Dean Smith been in Minneapolis for a game.
Since his alma mater's athletics are currently in the doldrums, Dean Smith would gladly trade his "M" card for basketball tickets. The rationing of basketball tickets here leaves him with a ticket for only one of the three remaining home games.
Plans for the Tau Sigma spring recital were discussed at the meeting Tuesday night. The definite date for the performance will not be announced until later.

Kanehl Confident About Track Meet
Track Coach Ray Kanchl of the Jayhawkers is confident that his Kansas squad will finish high in the final standings at the Big Six track meet in Kansas City Saturday night.
Bill Would Aid Refugees
The favorite, however, will be the Missouri Tigers, with the Nebraska Cornhuskers ranking as potent threats. Both squads have handed the Jayhawkers decisive defeats this year.
Washington. —(UP)— Chairman Charles A. Eaton of the house foreign affairs committee today introduced a bill to authorize the United States to participate in the International Refugee organization.
Many meet records are in danger, including the half-mile and two-mile runs which are threatened by Kansas entries. Nebraska boasts a large group of potential record-breakers.
Team strength is expected to winn the meet, as it did last year for Iowa State, and Missouri with at least 30 men is expected to provide plenty of team strength.
Oklahoma's coach, John Jacobs, picked the Sooners for fourth place with the title a toss-up between Missouri and Nebraska.
The authority was requested by President Truman who said there are more than a million displaced persons still in Germany, Austria, and Italy.
