UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS

Hank Iba, coach of the Oklahoma Aggies, told several persons Monday morning that he would like to Charlie Black back east with him on his all-star West cage squad as a defense man.
Maybe he will decide now that Black might be able to get a few points on offense, too.
...
Otto Schnellbacher was introduced correctly at the DePaul game Saturday night, but during the game he was mentioned by seven different names by the public address system.
Kansas hopes for a bid to the National Invitational would be considerably enhanced if the inviters would give more than a cursory glance to the record of 13 and 10. Kansas is one of six teams to hand the Missouri Valley champ. St. Louis, a setback, and the Jayhawkers did a good job of it.
Also, Kansas is the only team in the country which has defeated both the teams to whip Kentucky. St. Louis breezed through a Mo-valley schedule with 11 straight before dropping one to Creighton.
Direct comparative scores may be unreliable in some instances, but when they are massed to show many scores to the same end by different comparisons, then they take on some value.
Even Podunk College may upset one of the big schools sometime during the year, and may be classed as one of the top in the country by one comparison, but direct proof such as Kansas can offer should not be overlooked.
For instance, Kansas beat St. Louis which held Notre Dame fairly close; Kansas beat the Aggies who beat Kentucky, victors over Notre Dame; Kansas split with Oklahoma, winners over Notre Dame-conquering Wisconsin; Kansas and Notre Dame both beat DePaul.
From the general picture, it would seem that the Jayhawkers are in the same class with the Irish even though the records of games won and lost doesn't show it.
Another proof is the fact that the Big Six this year has established itself as one of the major conferences in the country by intersectional forays. Missouri conquered the Whiz Kids from Illinois, Oklahoma walloped Wisconsin and edged Bradley, and Kansas conquered both Arkansas and St. Louis.
It's possible.
Dodger Manager Leo Durocher, who used to win big stakes at poker until his boss clamped a limit on the game, ordered all card-playing stopped for the duration of the 1947 season as far as the Dodgers are concerned. Didja hit a losing streak, Leo?
Hilden Gibson Returns To Lawrence For Visit
Hilden Gibson, associate professor of political science, on leave, returned to Lawrence Monday. Prof. Gibson will be here for the rest of this week.
On leave to do human relations work at Harvard, Professor Gibson will return to the active University teaching staff for the summer session. He has been working under a fellowship.
Student Rebellion Closes Another Buffalo School
Twenty - four hundred teachers walked out Monday in the biggest school strike in American history
Buffalo, N.Y. — (UP) — Students sympathizing with striking school teachers rebelled today at Lafayette high school, one of only two high and remaining open in this city, and forced dismissal of classes for the day.
Sixty-nine teachers at the high school, while willing to remain on duty, had petitioned the superintendent of schools, to close the school yesterday, but the board of education had turned down their request by a two to one vote.
Thirteen hefty newcomers, who will join the Jayhawk grid squad as it starts spring football practice Monday, will carry a large share of interest through the drills.
Hefty Newcomers To Grid Squad Will Barricade Short, Thin Line
from this group, Coach Sauer must barricade the short, thin line that
From this group, Coach Sauer n carried the team to their highest peak in 35 years during the pass season. Replacements at almost every position were short on experience last autumn, and next season the Kansans may not be so fortunate in keeping their men off the injury rolls.
The new men, who enrolled here at the start of the second semester, will include: Ralph "King Kong" Brown, one-time Newton high school strong man who transferred from Oklahoma A. and M.; Steve Renko, 120-pound tackle from Kansas City; Wally Rouse, 215-pound tackle, Turner; Bill Botthell, 205, guard, Iowa City; Joe Mendenhall, 185, end, Belleville; George Weiser, 180, center, Coffeyville; Tom Scott, 175, back, Longvoy, Texas; Len Thompson, 185, back, Merriam; Jim Rhoades, 180, end, Lee's Summit, Mo.; Gwinn "Bub" Henry, 185, back, Albuquerque, N.M.; Arnold Stricker, 175, back, St. Louis, Mo.; Hobart Taylor, 185, end, Clare.
"These men should fit into Kansas University's football picture nicely," Coach Sauer said as he checked over a list of 125 candidates who are expected to check out equipment this weekend. "But only time and the stress of Big Six competition will tell how far they will go.
"I can tell you one thing—everyone's going to get plenty of work this spring, especially the young men. We have 11 question mark positions on our squad, and we want every boy on our campus who is interested in football to report. If they have ability, spring practice is the time to earn a spot on the squad."
Practice will officially begin March 3, with the squad slated to be divided into four units after the first two weeks of work. Intrasquid games are tentatively scheduled for March 22, March 29, and April 12. There will be no practice during Easter vacation. Freshmen and newcomers will be held over during the sixth week for intensive individual instruction in fundamentals.

The Kappa's won their way to the finals by barely squeezing out a hard-playing AD Pi team, 22-20. I. W. W. handed the Theta's a decisive 14-9 beating.
Maxine Gunselly lead the Kappa's scoring 15 of her teams 22 points. Hoffman, forward, and Stuckey, guard, backed her up. Jeanne Cooper and Pat Bentley, ADFI for each scored 10 points. The half-time score was all, and it was not until a dramatic last minute that the tie was broken.
North Carolina vs. North Carolina State, cancelled
I. W.W. got a head start on the Theta's, and never let go of it. Geraldine McGee was high scorer for the game with 6 points, and Kathleen McClanahan was second with the tight I. W.W. defense worked well against Theta forwards Kathryn O'Leary and Marjorie Fadler.

Washington. — (UP)—Agriculture department economists saw signs today that pointed to another sharp increase in retail food prices.
They believed it possible that food prices may soar even higher than the December peak. There was little expectation of a drop before late spring or early summer.

Evanson, Ill. (UP)—The moon will eclipse the sun twice during 1947, but people in the United States will see it happen only once.
Oliver J. Lee, Northwestern university astronomy professor, said a partial eclipse of the sun will be visible over almost all of the United States. Nov. 12. He said the moon at that time is in orbit from the earth to cover the sun completely, leaving a rim of light around the moon's silhouette.
U.S. Watchers To See One Eclipse In 1947
A total eclipse of the sun will occur May 20 and a partial eclipse of the moon June 3, but neither will be visible in the United States.
Observers southwest of Santiago, Chile, will see the complete solar eclipse first, Lee said, and the path of visibility will cross South America and the Atlantic ocean and end near Lake Victoria in Africa. He said several groups of astronomers planned to go to Brazil to view the total eclipse.
College Senior Physics Speak
