PAGE FOUR CINHIDEN DAVIS KANSAM LAWRENCE KANSAS UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS DECEMBER 13. 1945 DECEMBER 18, 1945 The referee of any sports contest usually receives the brunt of the punishment when the gripers want to "take it out" on someone. But sometimes (and last night was one of those times) the referee is guilty and deserves to receive the gripers grips. Recall a K.U.-K-State game last year when his shirt was practically ripped off his back in Manhattan because his interpretation of the game was so far astray from everyone else's. And recall several of the decisions made last night—a foul called against Charlie Black when Fitzsimmons was shoving, another shoving foul by Fitzsimmons called against Clark. John Lance, basketball coach at Kansas State Teacher's college at Pitt Lang, was one of the referees last night. He is noted in this section for "close" refereeing and public disapproval. Will we face the same type of referee when we battle in Big Six games at which our conference standing will be at stake? Can't we have a fair and impartial referee the next time? Children must play—but a basket- ball game is no place for college students to sail paper airplanes onto the court. Several jokers in the balcony endangered each life on the basketball court last night by such childish play. When a basketball player has to clean up the floor of paper debris dropped by non-thinking "fans" in addition to playing basketball, things are getting pretty bad. And when the basketball coach himself has to address a plea to spectators to refrain from endangering his players and visiting players, the audience spirit certainly is low. Had a K.U. or a Rockhurst man tripped, fallen, and fatally injured himself because of the lack of respect of one unthinking K.U. student, the University's reputation would have been darkened irreparably. THINK before you THROW. New arrival on the Kansas court will be Otto Schnellbacher, former The sermon hatted for today but DON'T FORGET! VARSITY ENDS TONITE "ROUGH RIDERS OF CHEYENNE" and "Follow That Woman" Wednesday - Thursday Tomorrow the Kansas quintet moves against the Olathe Clippers at Olathe and then will cease hostilities until after Christmas when the Jayhawkers will join seven tougher teams in the All-College tournament at Oklahoma City. K.U. Takes Sixth Cage Tilt, 50-21 The Jayhawkers scored their sixth straight basketball victory last night by defeating the Rockhurst Hawks, 50 to 21. Charlie Black again stacked up almost half the total Jayhawker score with seven field goals and nine free throws for 23 points. Gib Stramel, Owen Peck, and Gene Barr were runners-up with seven points each. A slow-moving first half ended with the Jayhawk quintet leading the show, 20 to 8. The only excitement was a brief exchange of fist-cuffs by Black and Jim Cashin, Rockhurst's leading guard. Gus Daum and Black improved the Kansas defense since their last encounter with the Hawks. However, the enthusiasm prevalent in tough Six games last weekend, was lacking last night. Only 14 fouls were called against the Jayhawkers last night and 16 against Rockhurst. All-American and one of the members of the Iron Five. His addition to the Jayhawker quintet makes rosy prospects look even rosier. Jim Cashin, the outstanding Rockhurst guard, was enrolled in K.U. at the beginning of the 12-week term, but stayed only a short time. A misunderstanding with the Veterans Bureau caused him to quit after two days and enroll at Rockhurst. GRANADA Shows 2:30 - 7:00 - 9:00 NOW It's a Crime to Divulge the Ending!
