Jayhawks Win Over Nebraska After Hard Fight
The Kansas Jayhawks duplicated an earlier victory over the Nebraska Cornhuskers by trimming their rivals to the north Saturday night at Lincoln, 56 to 47.
However, victory came only after a hard battle from the Huskers and the Allenmen had a lot tougher battle than they did in the earlier contest which was a walkaway for the Jayhawks, 51 to 27.
The Huskers were expert marksmen from the field Saturday night and parted the netting from all angles. With a newcomer, Al Kiril, who never participated in the other duel, scoring 14 points, all on long shots, the Nebraskans kept in the game all the way and with five minutes remaining narrowed the margin to only five points, 43 to 48.
The Jayhawks, taking advantage of Nebraska's rushing defensive tactics, worked the ball in to Moffett and Barrington who scored 21 and 18 points respectively, mostly on set ups. Often these two Kansas forwards found themselves completely in the open under the basket when a Husker rival was pulled out of position.
Kansas, using only seven players, took a 28 to 19 halftime lead. Other contributors to the Kansas scoring attack were Sherwood with three points, McSpadden with nine, Turner with three, and Goehring with two. It was Kansas' third Big Six victory of the season.
Iowa State to Meet Missouri Tonight
The Iowa State Cyclones venture to Columbia tonight to meet the fighting Missouri Tigers is the attraction on the Big Six cage program this week.
Although fresh from a 58 to 35 trimming of the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Menzemen may find the Tigers in Brewer Field House, nemesis of many a title hopeful, a tough go. The Missourians, with Pippin and Collins leading the way, handed the Olathe Naval Air Station Clippers their first defeat in 21 games Saturday night at Columbia, 47 to 41.
Oklahoma lost in a "pitcher's duel" to Henry Iba's Oklahoma Aggies Saturday night, 11 to 14, with their "hold-the-ball" style limiting the Aggies, despite Kurland, to only 14 shots at the basket.
In a battle Saturday night the K-State Wildcats downed Rockhurst, 38 to 26.

V-12's Take Crown In Fast Boxing Bout With MM's, EM's
Winning seven out of 12 bouts from the combined MM and EM teams, the V-12's emerged as champions of the Naval training school in the match held in Hoch auditorium Friday night.
V-12 started the evening with three unanimous decisions over MM opponents. Allyn Harrison, 125 pound V-12 from PT8 outpointed William M. Olin, seventeen division, and two 135 pound V-12'ers, James Toomey, PT8, and Dick Hunter, PT6, drew decisions from Charles Marceaux and Julius Fisherman, eighteenth division.
In the 145 pound class two eighteenth division MM's reversed the procedure, with Carl Redinger winning a 2-1 decision over Dean Bagley, PT4, and John Marques outpointing Herbert Hill, PT3, by the same margin in one of the faster matches of the evening.
Billingsley Wins First TKO
Pat Billingsley, PT8, won the first TKO of the evening in the second round of his 155 pound bout with Charles Harvey, eighteenth division, after Harvey had taken the first round on points.
The EM's won honors in the 160 pound division by taking two of three fights, one by a TKO of S. S. Benestante, Co. 2, over Henry Moon, PT3. Moon put up a game fight but he was no match for the experience of Benestante, a former Golden Glove champ from Dallas, Texas. John L. Bauer, Co. 1, won the other EM victory over Clinton Sloan, PT6, with a 2-1 decision.
Allen Stubbs, PT7, scored a TKO over Ralph Kyle, Co. 1, in the first round of their 160 pound encounter.
Robert Templin, seventeenth division, added another victory to the MM-EM list by scoring a first round TKO over V-12 John Bergin, PT5 in the only bout of the 165 pound class.
V-12's Win 175 Pound Class
The V.12 fighters took both bouts of the 175 pound class from members of the eighteenth division. Joe Kelleher, PT4, won a unanimous decision by Bernard Bloom, and Bob Scalzo, PT4, added to the string of TKO's against Joe Lucero in the second round.
Lieutenant Zeller, athletic officer of the MM and EM school, refereed. Judges were Lt. Joseph R. McCord, of the ASTP unit, and Lt. C. M. Smith, USNR, aviation officer of the V-5 unit.
Winners of the bouts of Friday night will be combined into a Naval Training team which will meet the Haskell Indians at Haskell Feb. 28.
A tea will be given at 4:30 this afternoon for Frederick L. Schuman, who spoke to the University convocation this morning, in the English room of the Union building. It is sponsored by Pi Sigma Alpha, honorary political science fraternity; and all students and faculty members are invited to attend, according to Thornton McClanahan, president.

The Kansas team clinched victory in the final event of the afternoon when the mile relay team came home in front by 15 yards while the Nebraskans were coming in last.
Despite the fact that their ace high jumper, Tom Scofiel, and dash man, Harry Johnson were not available, the Kanehl lightclads proved the class of the field at the Triangular meet at Lincoln Saturday afternoon, collecting a total of 43 2-3 points. Nebraska was second with 40 1-3 points, with the out-manned Kansas Staters trailing with 14 counters.
With victories over their three civilian Big Six foes the Kansas indoor door track and field team, coached by Ray Kanehle, can enter Saturday's Big Six event at Kansas City knowing that they can at least do no worse than third.
