Jayhawks Play Last Service Tilt At Leavenworth
The Kansas Jayhawks take on their last service foe of the season tonight when they clash with the Ft. Leavenworth Flyers on the Leavenworth High School court. The Jayhawks handed the Flyers their first loss early in the season, 31 to 27.
Two days later the Flyers uncorked a bewildering second half attack on the Olathe Clippers to set themselves up as the only ball club to mar the Clipper's undefeated season so far.
Against service foes, most of whom boast many ex-college players, the Jayhawks have been only mediocre. They defeated a not-so-strong Herington club twice, and downed both Leavenworth and Ft. Riley here in close games early in the season. However, the Allenmen twice lost to the Olathe Clippers, who now boast a 19-game winning streak. The Crimson and Blue recently lost their return game to the Fort Riley Centaurs, and lost in their rough squabble with the Hutchinson N.A.S. here in December. The latter holds a recent victory over the Oklahoma Aggies. All told, the Jayhawks have won four games against service clubs while losing three.
Lineup Is Undecided
Except for Barrington and McSpadden, Allen has not decided upon whom he will start in tonight's contest as his men have been so unpredictable. The other three will probably be Moffett, Sherwood, and Turner, although Bill Lindquist can hardly be overlooked after his fine performance against Oklahoma. Going in late in the game the former Creighton athlete zipped in nine points and played nearly faultless ball. On the other hand Big Abe Turner, who had been doing so well of late, was rather disappointing against the Sooners, and Sherwood, after pumping in two baskets in the early moments, couldn't even come close the rest of the night. It is hoped that Moffett, who hasn't been quite himself since his sickness preceding the Iowa State game, will soon find his way out of the slump that has been dogging him. After leading the Big Six in scoring after his first three contests, the Peabody freshman could only hit for a total of three points against Iowa State and Oklahoma, and was held scoreless against the latter.
Flyers Average 45 Points a Game
The Flyers, paced by Sergt. Alden Tilberg have scored an average of forty-five points. Tilberg's average per game is fifteen. All of his teammates have scored in each of the last three games. They have won fourteen of their seventeen games and are determined to even the count with K.U. to keep their record undefeated on their home court.
The Ft. Leavenworth cagers represent various organizations on the post and Sherman Field and are under the direction of Capt. Ronald I. Sieben, athletic director of the
Dargitz Leaves KU For Philadelphia Duty
Yeoman first class Claude A. Dargitz, a member of the ship's company of the Naval Training School since August. 1942, left today for the Philadelphia navy yards where he will receive further assignment.
Yeoman Dargitz, whose home is in Topeka, entered the navy in March, 1942. Sent to yeoman's school at Toledo, Ohio, in April, he reported for duty in the disbursing office here immediately following his graduation in August. He was transferred from the disbursing office to the executive office in October, 1943.
As in the case of the departure of other members of the ship's company, no replacement is expected for Yeoman Dargitz. This is in line with the navy policy of decreasing the permanent personnel of the station, Chief Yeoman George Starkey said.
Top Teams Are Phi's, Phi Psi's
It's all through in the "A" League of intramural basketball as the undefeated Phi Psi's last night ousted one of her chief contenders, the Blank's, 33 to 22. The Blanks, one-point winners over the Phi Gam's had previous to last night's game been tied with the Fiji's for the runner-up berth, but the independent team's defeat eliminated all chances of their gaining a play-off berth, while at the same time cinching the privilege for the once-beaten Phi Gam's, losers to the Phi Psi's
Leading the Phi Fsi attack last night were lanky Edwin Pyle, who scored 11 points, and Leuhring, another V-12, who dropped in nine. However, the leading scorer for the game was a member of the losing team, Smith, with 12 points. Smith also possesses the highest individual average in intramural play.
In "B" League play the Sig Alph's handed Battenfeld their third defeat, 27 to 18, and eliminated the latter from a chance for tieing for second. The same was true when an oft-beaten Sigma Nu five downed the DU's, 28 to 25, in another "B" League game. Both Battenfeld and Delta Upsilon had previously been deadlocked for second with SAE and the Beta's, all with two losses. The Phi Delt's rest safely at the top without a defeat chalked against them.
High scorers in these games were Miller and Verlage of Sigma Nu with 10 each; Mosher, Henry, and Schaeffer of the DU's with six each, Briney, SAE, with 13 counters, and Ashcraft, Battenfeld, with an eight point total.
post, and Cpl. Howard Iba. Captain Sieben played ball for Louis Menze at Iowa State who was one of Dr. Allen's pupils at Warrensburg State Teachers College before his move to Kansas. Corp. Howard Iba, brother of Oklahoma A.A.M.'s famous Henry Iba, played ball at Marysville State Teachers College when his brother was coaching there.

MM-EM to Box V-12 In Elimination Bout To Take on Haskell
A V-12 vs. MM and EM boxing match, described as a "natural" by promoter Chief Yeoman Starkey will be held in Hoch auditorium Friday night, Chief Starkey announced today. The eight or nine bout match, for which the contestants have not yet been picked, will probably be used as a means of choosing fighters to meet Haskell in a match scheduled for the first week of March.
In a previous match with Haskell, the V-12 lost all bouts of the evening, and in the return match Chief Starkey intends to use a combined Naval Training Station team, provided any of the MM's or EM's can prove their ability over a V-12 Friday night. Lt. (j.g.) Joe Zeller, recently arrived athletic officer of the MM's and EM's, will referee the bouts.
Colleges to Confer On Postwar Plans
Plans were made for a state-wide conference of Kansas colleges to discuss postwar educational problems, at a luncheon held by the University in the Old English room Saturday. Dean Paul B. Lawson of the College presided over the discussion. One representative each from Kansas State College, the teachers colleges, junior colleges, denominational colleges, and municipal colleges attended the luncheon.
They decided that the conference will be held in April, with the cooperation of the United States Office of Education and the state department of education. All colleges in Kansas will be invited to send delegates.
