N.C.A.A. Meet Opens Tonight In Kansas City
The rousing climax to the surprising 1944-45 basketball season, the N. C. A. A. western play-offs, will start tonight in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium when Oregon tangles with Arkansas and Utah mixes with the Oklahoma Aggies. The first game begins at 8 o'clock, and the second contest will start at 9:30.
All four cage squads will be ready to go, but the Utes will be minus the services of star players Arnold Fertin and Fred Sheffield. Oklahoma A. & M. and Arkansas are the pre-game favorites, although anything is liable to happen when so much is at stake.
The Eastern play-offs began in New York last night as Ohio State won out over a fast moving Kentucky team, 45-37. The New York university Violets won the other finals slot by outsourcing Tufts college, 59-44. The division champions will meet for the national title next Tuesday in the Empire State capital.
The offices of dean of men and dean of women were established at the University in 1921.
