Iowa State Beats Kansas In Final Game
The Iowa State Cyclones moved into a first place tie with Oklahoma by beating the University of Kansas Jayhawkers 47 to 25 last Friday night in Hoch auditorium.
After the first few moments the outcome of the game was never in doubt, although for a while the Jayhawkers made a contest of it. But the steady shooting of the Wehde brothers and Price Brookfield gave the Cyclones a half-time edge of 22 to 11. Coach Allen used several substitutes in an effort to find a clicking combination. The Kansans had a very "cold" night at the basket, making only nine field goals, two of these by Bob Malott, substitute forward. Free throw trouble again was present as the Allenmen made only 13 out of 27 of their gifts shots.
This was the final game of the season for the Jayhawkers and the defeat put them into a third place tie with the Missouri Tigers, who beat Kansas State 38 to 14. Both teams won five games and lost five. The services of Homer Sherwood were missed, but Bill Lindquist who played in Sherwood's place scored 10 points to lead the Kansas attack.
The victory of the Iowa State team made Coach "Phog" Allen's pre-season prediction that the Cyclones would win the Big Six title come true.
Match With Indians Causes Protests
Although losing seven of the 10 fights scheduled, the Navy fighters showed improvement in their match with the Haskell Indians held Feb. 28 at Haskell.
Except in one or two fights, the decisions were clear cut, but the decisions of Severs, tall Indian, over Herbert Hill, his shorter Navy opponent, drew lusty protests from the Navy section. Hill was credited by the Navy men as having made a much better showing than his long-armed adversary.
Navy winners over the Indians were John C. Marquest, 147 lb, class A. J. Warta, heavyweight, and S. S. Benestanche, 160 lb, class.

Rock Does No.1 Job In Big Six Coaching Dr. Allen Declares
The No.1 coaching job for the Big Six basketball season just completed has been turned in by Coach Clifford Rock, first year cage mentor at Kansas State, Dr. Forrest C, "Phog" Allen declared here today. While Rock's team finished in a tie for last place deadlocked with Nebraska, Allen pointed out that Rock got more out of the material available than any other coach in the loop.
Many of the Aggie squad this year had been on the campus two and three years, Allen continued, and had not attempted to participate in the cage sport. Rock practically had to draft enough members to make up a squad and from that group produced a hard fighting, aggressive, sportsmanlike team that was in the thick of every battle. An example, he said, was Lee Doyen, who until he went into service, was one of the finest guards and deadliest shots in the conference.
Laurels for the runner-up post, Dr. Allen continued, should go to George Edwards, whose all-civilian Missouri team tied Kansas for third place in the conference standings. Edwards managed to guide his quintet into a tie for a place in the first division in spite of the fact that Iowa State, Oklahoma, and Kansas, all had naval talent to draw upon.
Missouri's victory over the Jayhawks in the conference opener in Columbia was hailed by sportswriters as a violent upset. The manner in which the Bengals conducted themselves throughout the season, however, indicated that George Edwards had produced a fine quintet from Tigerland, a threat in every game until the final whistle.

Voters Go to Polls Today

Nationalism will eventually completely destroy our civilization, predicted Dr. Felix Morley, president of Haverford college, in his address to the 161 mid-year graduates Sunday, Feb. 27.
The concept of the nation has replaced the concept of the civilization. After World War I the people of Europe forgot to be Europeans and thought of themselves only as members of their own state or racial group. There was more shame in being unloyal to the state than to Christian ideals. Future historians will group the two world wars together as the suicide of Western Europe, said Dr. Morley.
The academic procession filed into the auditorium as Laurel Everett Anderson, University organist, played the "Procession of Holy Sacrament" by Chauvet. After the processional Joseph F. Wilkins, chairman of the department of voice, led the audience in singing the national anthem. A vocal solo "Time, You Old Gypsy Man" was then sung by Meribah Moore, associate professor of voice.
Morley Envisions Nationalism
In his farewell speech to the graduates, Chancellor Deane W. Mallett said that they all must face a life of courageous action if they are to keep democracy. Democracy is not inevitable, he said.
Greetings to the graduates were given by Governor Andrew F. Schoeppel and Drew McLaughlin, member of the board of regents. Mr. McLaughlin presented the diplomas to the graduates.
That morning the senior class held the traditional breakfast. Dedicated to the confusion of wartime, a backward breakfast was served following the program. R. J. Atkinson, master of ceremonies introduced Governor Schoeppel and Chancellor Malott. Walter Butin read the class prophecy, "Eruptions of '44," written by Joy Miller and Bob Provard read the class history. Betty Lou Perkins, Ruth Prentice and Karl Ehrlich sang a parody on "Marzidoates," and Gordon McKune played boogie-woogie on the piano.

Have a "Coke" = Hallo, Bracie
...a way to say "Pardner" to a visiting Pole
When a Polish flyer says Hallo, Bracie, he greets you as a brother: The American means the same, thing when he says Have a "Coke", whether he offers it away from home or from his icebox at home. Around the world, Coca-Cola stands for the pause that refreshes—the global high-sign of the kind-hearted.
