Tonight's final round of games will bring down the curtain on the Victory Intramural Basketball League, with the league champion scheduled to clash with a team of picked all-stars on Thursday night.
A Beta victory last night over the Delt's would give the Beta's the undisputed championship, while a loss would really result in complications as then four teams would be tied for first, which would require two Extra nights for playoffs, providing of course that the Delt's and the Tennessee Club win their games tonight.
Tennessee Club and the Phi Psi's should have, on their records, won their games from Jolliffe and Battenfeld last night, as should the Sig Alphs, the Delts, and Tennessee Club against Jolliffe, Batenfeld and Templein tonight—at least according to dope.
In last Thursday's main game the Beta's defeated the Phi Psi's 27 to 21 in a hard fought, closely contested duel. Bob O'Neil, scoring six points himself, held Phi Psi Kirk Scott scoreless the first half while allowing him only six points for the entire game. Scott, it was, who was supporting a better than 20 points-a-game average. Don Diehl of the Beta's was high scorer for the game with 10 points. The Beta's led 8 to 6 at the half in this low scoring affair between what could probably be considered the league's two best teams.
In a big upset the Sig Alph's, who had already dropped four games, pulled a victory out of the bag in their contest with the Delt's, winning 40 to 36. The game was of those rough and tumble, wild and wooly, tipical intramural battles. Gage of the Sig Alph's and Moffett of the Delt's paced their respective teams, each throwing in fourteen points.
Murfin Commissioned Ensign in Reserves
In the other game Thursday, Templin had little trouble in winning over Jolliffe, as Dean Corder poured in 22 points to spark his team to their 48 to 28 victory. Stephens of Templin and Kongs of Jolliffe also hit well, each scoring 14 points.
Corpus Christi, Texas — William M. Murfin, son of Mr. and Mrs. I. V. Murfin, 258 South Pershing, Wichita, Kans., was graduated last week from the Naval Air Training Center, Corpus Christi, and was commissioned an ensign in the U. S. naval Reserve.

If the Betas take the title, the all-star team which will be picked by Dr. Allen from nominations by the other league teams might likely have Scott (Phi Psi) and Moffett (Delt) at forwards, Bill Mathews (Tenn.) at center, and Mathews, brother, (Tenn.) and Dean Corder (Templin) at guards. Then again there are many other fine players who can hardly be left out and they include Carpenter (Phi Psi) McCormick and Stowitz (Tenn.), Smith (Delts), Doores and Stephens (Templin), Gage (Sig Alphs) Kongs (Jolliffe), and a few others. In the Beta's would happen to lose Diehl, O'Neil, and Malott, Beta stalwarts, would certainly be in the picture in the selecting of an all-star team.
Bob Allen, home from the University of Pennsylvania for a short visit, has helped out by refereeing a few of the games. Bobby, one of K. U.'s basketball greats, has a year and a half more study ahead of him before he will graduate as an M. D. When he gets back to Philadelphia, he will be put in uniform by the Army, but will go on with his studies.
John "Thin Man" Buescher, one of Dr. Allen's "iron five' last winter, has also been helping out by working several of the games.
The Sig-Alph-Delt game was no gentle affair by any means as one of the Sig Alphs had to have three stitches taken in a gash he received above his eye, while 'one of his teammates came out of the game with a severely sprained ankle. Likewise, two of the Delt's weren't exactly looking spritely when the dog fight was concluded.
One crew of sailor trainees sacked over 10 carloads of sand for a railroad and sacked truckloads for the city and county. The remaining crews worked on the levees protecting North Lawrence, Mud Creek and the railroad right-of-way. They worked at the scene of the flood for approximately 46 hours.

FLOOD----
Captain George B. Smith of the department of military science and tactics stated that men in the ROTC responded generously to the calls for help and that his classes were not well attended and then mostly by men weary from flood work.

Extra liberty was granted to some of the machinists mates and baker trainees Saturday as a reward for their extra duty while working on the Kaw. The school's commanding officer also commended the ship's personnel for "successfully controlling the flood waters and protecting property and war vital transportation during the flood."
Some University departments, such as the University Press, stopped work on the Hill and worked on the river instead.
Army students worked all night Thursday night and returned at 5:30 in the morning. Friday night they were ordered to stand by for additional help but they were not needed. The flood crest passed Lawrence Friday morning and danger lessened after that.
Henry Takes Job At New Mexico U.
Gwinn Henry, former director of athletics and head football coach at the University, has accepted a position as physical education instructor at the University of New Mexico, according to a statement issued by the president of the University of New Mexico last week.
Mr. Henry, who came to K.U. from the University of New Mexico in 1937, resigned as head football coach and athletic director last April. Although it was known that he planned to continue coaching after the war he had expected to enter war work for the duration.
Two Women Attend Sorority Convention
Miss Ruth Kenney, secretary of the Bureau of Correspondence Study, and Jeanne Scott, graduate student, are attending the annual convention of Pi Lambda Theta, national honorary education sorority, at Toledo, Ohio.

The Gamma chapter of Pi Lambda Theta at the University is being represented by Jeanne Scott who was graduated this spring with a major in public school music.
