Game comments;
It was easy to see that Charlie, Black was still bothered by his injured back last night, and that he was not at top form, but 11 points is pretty good form for anyone.
We aren't sure, but it seems to us that 19 points in a row should be some kind of Big Six record. It will at least stand as a consecutive point record for this tourney.
We noticed that Kansas State fortunes took a sharp rise immediately after Allie Paine, Oklahoma's all-American guard, left the game on five fouls.
One old-time Kansas Citian informed us with profound knowledge that it was always easier to score on the Municipal auditorium's north goal than it was on the south goal. That was before Kansas went out and built up a 24 to 3 lead at the north end.
Although Iowa State only ogged two out of 34 shots in the first half, the reason wasn't so much the inaccuracy of the Cyclones, as it was the type of shots they were forced to make to get by the tight Kansas defense.
Five scorebooks in the near vicinity of the official scorer varied as much as seven points from the total turned in by the official book.
Of course, we think we were right but if the official book wants to give Kansas an extra two-point margin, who are we to complain?
We noticed in the programs that Iowa State included a pronunciation chart in their roster. Evidently the Cyclones thought the fans and announcer might have trouble with Kuebler, Schneider, and the Wehde twins.
The highly-touted Whede twins were held to a single point for the evening between them. It was scored by Roy off a foul by Ray Evans. Against Evans, Black, and Schnell-bacher, what could they do?
Arkansas will prove a lot bigger test tonight, especially with 6-foot 10-inch George Kok under the basket. We wish Black were O.K.
Kansas State must have capitalized on Gerald Tucker's one-man-team idea. Tucker scored 24, but the Sooners lost.

The problem of scheduling games for the next conference grid season has come up in the Big Nine again, and the worst problem is fitting the small schools into the large schools' schedules.
Each of the Big Nine schools is entitled to ask for six conference games, but Indiana, Purdue, and Iowa have had trouble in the past in getting six games.
The larger schools prefer to keep their traditional rivalries going with other large schools which draw bigger crowds.
Michigan, with a stadium seating 85,000, considers Ohio State, Minnesota, Illinois, and Northwestern as "musts" on the schedule. That leaves only two slots to fill.
Also, all four regard Michigan as a "must" and try to get the Wolverines on schedule. With the incentive of bigger crowds, the smaller schools get shut out.
Kansas has little to worry about on that line in the Big Six. The Jay-hawkers have one of the largest stadiums in the Midwest, and all they have to worry about is how to fill it. They have never done it yet.

Big Six Rules Freshmen Out Of Conference Participation
Kansas City, Mo. (UP)—Freshman athletes, who bolstered varsity ranks in the war years when manpower was thinned out by service calls, will no longer be permitted to participate in Big Six conference schedules.
Athletic directors of conference schools, meeting yesterday, voted to return the "freshman rule" to effect, as of Sept. 1, 1947. Lifted during the war years, the rule also was inoperative this year.
