Faculty Engineers Defeat Beta's to Win A-League Honors
The Faculty Engineers clinched the A league championship with a 15-11, 15-6 victory over the second place Betas, as the regular season's play drew to a close last night. The Engineers, only unbeaten team in either league, were given a harder battle by the Betas than by any other team, but still managed to win without too much trouble.
The Phi Delts and Ship's Company, who tied for the B league crown, will meet in a playoff game next week, and the winner will tangle with the Engineers for the championship of the year.
No other games were played last night. Kappa Alpha Psi and John Moore forfeited to Phi Gam and Blanks respectively, and both Sigma Chi and the V-12's failed to appear for their game.

Sportorials
By Charles Moffett
One ardent sports fan and a booster for Kansas University football, after hearing about the game to be played Saturday night at Haskell stadium, asked us if we didn't think there was another reason for the increasing football spirit on the Hill. This interested observer believes that no matter what actions are taken to promote football on the campus none can compare with the boost given by the Kansas victory over Ol' Mizzou last fall. We're inclined to agree with this opinion. Kansas had experienced a very mediocre season up to the Tiger contest and there didn't seem much hope of coming close, let alone win. In fact, Missouri fans were predicting an easy game, some even guessing the score to be up in the 60's, with the Jayhawks not even crossing the goal line.
But the wearers of the Crimson and Blue didn't seem to realize they were supposed to get beat, not even after Missouri had scored on one of their famed T formation lateral plays. The coaching staff came up with a defense that kept the powerful "Bull" Reece slowed to a crawl and protected beautifully against passes. When the Tigers were pressing the goal at the end of the game, the Jayhawkers still didn't realize they weren't supposed to win and at the end of the exciting battle they were the least surprised of all, because they knew at half-time they weren't playing any super-humans. The victory was known as one of the national upsets of the season.
The fan thought the novel game was a fine thing and commended the "All-Stars" for their excellent cooperation in helping promote the game.
So maybe our informer was right. Victories are what pay off and Kansas certainly collected dividends last November. Hence, the game Saturday night will be played as an inspiration for more games won, and is a fine way to end spring practice and create more enthusiasm for next fall's campaign.
Ickes Told Too Many Of His Men Deferred
Washington, (INS) — The house appropriations committee, recommending $87,672,000 to tide the Interior department through the 1945 fiscal year castigated the agency today as being "too liberal" in asking 2,073 draft deferments for personnel.
The committee also advised Interior Secretary Ickes that his bureau of Indian affairs needs a "good overhauling and reorganization."
In appropriating the interior funds the committee continued its economy drive, lopping off more than $26,000,000 from the 1944 appropriation.

McKECHNIE - the "COLLEGE JEWELER"
Speaking on advertising at 11:30 yesterday morning Mr. MeKechnie pointed out that selling advertising in a small town is a hard job.
"You come constantly upon the retort 'I don't need to advertise—everyone knows I'm here'," the journalist pointed out. "But the minute they become chairman of a committee they want newspaper publicity," he replied. Advertising managers of small town newspapers deserve a great deal of respect, he said.
At 3:30 p.m. in the journalism building, Mr. McKechnie spoke on publication problems.
