UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
DECEMBER 11.1946
By BOB DELLINGER (Daily Kansan Sports Editor)
Amos A. Stagg, the "Grand Old Man" of football, resigned his position at the College of the Pacific because he had been asked to shift from the position of coach to that of athletic director.
Stagg has gone to Susquehanna to join his son, A. A. Stagg, Jr., as co-coach. Stagg hopes to be a football mentor until he is 90, and his son said he'll try to help him realize his ambition.
Arkansas began preparing today for its New Year's Day Cotton Bowl game with the Louisiana State Tigers.
The Razorbacks were forced indoors for the last 10 days as rain made outdoor practice impossible.
Coach John Barnhill said that most practice this week will consist of fundamentals, and heavy work will begin next week. The squad will have from Dec. 21 to 25 off for holidays, and will move to Texas for a week of acclimatation.
Judging from the way Notre Dame has been rolling along in basketball, it looks as though the Irish may be out after a national cage championship as well as the grid crown.
The almost new Irish team made a flying start Monday night by knocking off Indiana; rated third in the country, 70 to 60. Indiana led at the half, 32 to 20, but the Irish started hitting from all angles and ran up their third straight victory.
---
University High's lack of height had a telling effect in the first game of the season. Linwood, with not very much altitude of their own, made off with most of the rebounds.
The Bulldogs got three or four shots at the basket for each one by University High, and only their poor basket eyes kept them from rolling up a big score.
Geuda Springs High school, down at the south end of the state, got off to a flying start by rolling up 68 pints in their second game to add to 42 in the first. That's 110 points in 64 minutes of play. Good average.
While we're not predicting that the Jayhawkers will drop their first home game tonight or their Big Six tourney opener tomorrow, both will be toughies and watch out for trouble.
Idaho's center, who measures 6 feet, 9 inches, will give the shorter Javhawkers trouble.
Pladium Prevents Negro IM Bowling
Arthur Johnson, Negro member of the Y.M.C.A. intramural bowling team was prevented from bowling at the Pladium alleys Tuesday afternoon in an intramural match.
Prof. Henry Shenk, director of men's intramurals, said that the prevention was against the policy of the intramurals department, but that the concern was privately owned and probably nothing could be done about it.
The manager will be asked about the strength of his feelings on the matter, Mr. Shenk added.

Jayhawkers Open Home Season Tonight Against Idaho Vandals
The Jayhawkers will open their home basketball season at 7:30 tonight as they take on the Idaho Vandals.
The Vandals are on the last leg of an eastern trip which has brought them up against such formidable opponents as City College of New York, Georgetown, St. Joseph's, and Kentucky, all of which defeated them.
The Vandals will be fighting for their first win on the road, and have a fair chance to get it.
Two of Dr. F, C. Allen's starting players, Otto Schnellbacher and Ray Evans, have had only slightly more than a week's practice after the football season in which they starred. Moreover, Schnellbacher will be playing only his second game at center.
The Jayhawkers expect the most trouble from Forward Fred "Whimpy" Quinn, 6-foot 3-inch-forward who was listed on the Helms foundation all-American second team.
Another trouble-maker will be big Jack Phoenix, 6-foot 9-inch center who is expected to control a large number of rebounds. "We aren't worried quite so much about him, though," said Coach Allen. "I imagine Charley will get a few rebounds of his own."
Allen's squad has been concentrating more on set plays and fast breaks during the last week. The slippery floor at Emporia kept set plays and sharp breaks to a minimum and Coach Allen didn't have a chance to see what faults needed correcting.
The Jayhawkers have collected only one win, having started a week later than the other Big Six schools, but will enter the all-conference tournament at Kansas City tomorrow with an even chance of finishing on ton.
Probable starting lineups for tonight:
IDAHO
KANSAS
Bourland 6-3    F.    Black 6-4½
Quinn 6-3    F.    Stramel 6-1²
Phoenix 6-9    C.Schnellbacher 6-3
Carbaugh 5-9    G.    Evans 6-1²
Wallace 5-2    G.    Clark 6-1²
Officials: Mike Oberhelman, Kansas State; and Andy Skradski, Kansas State.
Kansas, Iowa State To Meet In Tourney
After the Idaho game tonight, the Jayhawkers will move to Kansas City for the three-day Big Six tournament which will start at 2 p.m. tomorrow.
Arkansas, last year's Southwestern runner-up, will clash with Nebraska in the opener. Both squads have rung up victories only in their early games, and both by impressive scores.
The other Southwest team to enter the Big Six tourney is Southern Methodist. The Ponies, last year's cellar-dweller in that conference, have been as unsuccessful this year. They have dropped decisions to Loyola of Chicago, Oklahoma, and the Continental Airlines of Denver.
Arkansas has been triumphant over Tulsa and Southwest Missouri, and Nebraska has downed South Dakota. Ottumwa Navy, and Drake.
The second game of the afternoon will pit Oklahoma, favorites for the tourney championship, against Kansas State, only Big Six team to lose a game vet.
Night play will be started by Southern Methodist and Missouri, and Kansas will meet the Iowa State Cyclones in the final game at 9:30 p.m.
The Arkansas Porkers will boast the tallest player in the tourney in George Kok, 6'10" center. The Porkers will have most of the players whol ed them into second place in the Southwest race last year.
All men interested in indoor track are to report to Ray Kanehl, track coach, at Memorial stadium after 3 p.m. today or tomorrow.
Kansas and Oklahoma also have all of their first five returning. Oklahoma will add Gerald Tucker and Allie Paine, both eit-Americans to the starting lineup, while Kansas will add Gib Stramel at forward, shifting Otto Schnellbacher to center for the starting lineup.
First Track Call
In addition to the first call, Kanebl announced that there will be a meeting of all track men in the clubhouse in the east stadium.
Quack club, women's swimming club will meet at 7:45 p.m. tomorrow in Robinson gymnasium. Members will work on formations for the aquatic exhibition to be held in the spring.
Swimmers Meet Thursday
The University High School Eagles will travel to Eudora tonight to meet the Eudora cage squad. The game is not a league game.
University High Team Meets Eudora In Non-League Game
This will be the second game of the season for the U.H.S. The Eagles dropped the opener to Linwood, 19-21, in a Tri-County league contest.
