FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1944 Kansas Trims Hawks For Second Victory The fledgling University of Kansas Jayhawkers annexed their second straight victory of the season last night in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium with a victory over the Rockhurst Hawks, 47-23. The Crimson and Blue five started slowly and held only a 16-10 lead a intermission, the Hawks managing to hold even throughout most of the entire first half. Then Coach "Phog" Allen's rapidly improving five began to turn on the steam, and in the next few minutes built up a 33-15 lead. Allen then sent in one substitute after another as the Jayhawks rode to an easy victory. Kirk Scott Is Star Charlie Moffett, "Whitey" Carlson, Gordon Reynolds, and Kirk Scott gave the Kansans their powerful offensive punch during the evening, Scott netting twelve points, Moffett and Carlson hitting ten apiece. Scott came into the contest midway in the first half with the Jayhawks holding but an 8-6 lead, and the speedy Newton southpawn potted three left-handers to push the Crimson and Blue into a commanding lead. In the second half of the ball game, Moffett started the Kansas fireworks by hitting a beautiful one-handed shot, and in only five minutes the Jayhawks possessed a the game-winning margin. Allen then cleaned the bench in order to give every squad member making the trip a chance. Hawks Hit Four Field Goals The Hawks hit but four field goals throughout the entire contest, most of their attempts ringing the rim and falling away. They kept within distance of the Jayhawks throughout the first half, though, by countering free throws. The Rockhursters, opening their 1944-45 season, could hit but one field goal throughout the first half, and connected for the second time with four minutes of play left in the game. Quinlan was high for the Hawks with nine points, five of them on free throws. The two teams will meet in a return engagement on the Hoch auditorium boards next Tuesday night.
