Coach Bruce Drake's Oklahoma Sooners are now in possession of the Big Six conference lead by virtue of their 44 to 43 overtime victory over the Kansas Jayhawkers in Norman Saturday night. Iowa State's loss to Missouri was the other factor boosting the Sooners to the top.
Harold "Scooter" Hines sank a long one with less than a minute to go in the overtime period to win the game for the Oklahomaans and make it their second overtime victory and the third conference game which Hines has won in the dying seconds by his remarkable shooting.
Kansas has 38-32 lead
Leading 38 to 32 and nearing victory, the Jayhawkers lost their lead as Ed Lindenburg, Jack Landon, and Howard Brinegar scored four buckets, Landon making two, in the closing minutes to give the Sooners a 40 to 38 lead.
Charles Moffett renewed the hopes of the Kansans by sinking one of his long one-handlers to tie up the game with only 35 seconds to go.
Bill Whaley scored first in the overtime, slipping in a one-hander from the side to give the Sooners a 42-40 lead. After Lou Goehring had made a free toss, Gordon Reynolds tipped in his missed second try to give the Jayhawkers the lead by a 43 to 42 score. Hines then sank his long one, and the Oklahomaans froze the ball for the last half minute, after Moffett missed an attempt to hit the basket.
Reynolds led Kansas Scoring
Hines, Landon, and Brinegar led the sooners' attack with 12, 11, and 9 points respectively. Reynolds led the Kansans with 10 points, closely followed by Moffett, Kirk Scott, and Herb Heim with 8 points apiece.
Kansas led throughout the ces-ond half by margins varying from one to eight points, until Brinegar sank the shot that put the winners ahead 40-38, just before Moffett entered the regular game with his tying shot.
Sooners Made More Errors
The Sooners appeared more nervous than the Jayhawkers and made more errors and violations. Reynolds again stole two Oklahoma passes and dribbled for setups, just as he did in the Nebraska game. Kansas made 9 out of 12 free throws, while Oklahoma dropped in only 8 out of 15 attempts.
Scott and Dean Corder held the high-scoring Hines to four field goals, although he made four of six free throw tries. Scott limited "Scooter" to only two shots the second half, both of which he made from far out on the court.

Former Coach Hails Collegiate Football
Lt. C. A. Temerario of the navy former end coach at Indiana university, who was in the Allied invasion of Normandy, paid a glowing tribute to football in preparing young men for war during a recent visit at Bloomington while en route to the south Pacific. "Football," said Lt. Temerario, "has done much to aid our fighting men at the front. Most of the men I saw as successful soldiers had played collegiate football." (A.C.P.)
Women to Play For Division Titles In Basketball
The women's intramural basketball season goes into its final round this week with eight games scheduled. This week of play won't make a great deal of difference to some teams but in Divisions III and IV, the outcome of the games this week are important.
The A.D. Pi's cinched Division I by defeating Corbin hall last week.
That game finished up the A.D. Pi's season until the semi-finals begin in February. They have lost no games.
Other Teams Are Tied
The other teams in Division I are A.O. Pi, Watkins hall, and Gamma Phi Beta. Corbin meets Watkins hall this week, and Gamma Phi Beta plays the A.O. Pi's. The teams in each game are tied for the Division standings. Corbin and Watkins have each won three games and lost one; Gamma Phi Beta and A.O. Pi have each been defeated three times this season.
In Division II, the Delta Gamma's have won three games and lost none. They play the Kappa's this week and if they win this game, will be the team to play in the semi-finals from their division. Tipperary has won three games and lost one to the DG's. They have now completed their season. The Kappa's have won two games and dropped one. Lock-sley and Miller have both failed to break into the "games won" column. They play tomorrow night to decide who comes out of the cellar.
IWW's to Fight for Division
In Division III, the Theta's are now on top winning all three of their games. The IWW's are next in line with two games won and one tied game as a result of their game with the Pi Phi's last week. The IWW's play the Theta's tomorrow night. If they can win that game, they will still be in the picture as far as the semi-finals go. The Pi Phi's can't possibly do anything now even though they will automatically win their game tomorrow night with Foster forfeiting to them, because they have won only on game, lost one, and tied one. The Sigma Kappa's have lost three of their games and have won one.
In Division IV, the Chi Omega's and the Alpha Chi's are battling for a position in the semi-finals. The Chi Omega's are in the clear right now with three games won and no games lost. The Alpha Chi's have won two games and lost one. However, they play each other Thursday night and if the Alpha Chi's can win the two teams will have to play again to determine the division winners. Harmon Co-op split their season, winning two games and losing two. The IND's have been defeated twice, won once, and will play Campus house to complete their season on Jan. 30. Campus house has lost three games so far.
Chi O's and Alpha Chi's Battle
— BUY U.S. WAR BONDS —
Jim Myers, current Big Six individual scoring leader, was the only Iowa State Cyclone who could hit the basket as the Cyclones lost to the Missouri Tigers by a 38-32 score in Columbia Saturday night.
Iowa State Loses To Missouri; K-State Sets Scoring Mark
The Tigers led by a 2 to 1 margin throughout the game until the Cyclones began to creep up during the second half. The Tigers protected their lead by fighting a furious defensive battle against the aggressive Cyclones during the second half, although scoring only 9 points themselves.
Missouri scoring was fairly evenly divided, with Collins getting high honors with 9 points.
Kansas State set a new conference scoring record by defeating the cellar Nebraska team by a 70 to 48 score. The previous high had been Kansas' 69 points against Missouri in 1943. Weatherby and Atkins scored 10 points, Kincheloe 12, and Payton 16 for the winners, while Peterson, 6 foot 6 inch Husker center racked up 23 for the losers. The Wildcats led only 28-20 at the half, but went on a scoring spree in the final half of the last period to send the Cornhuskers to their fifth straight conference defeat.
