ADOLPH THE GREAT IS A SECOND PHOG
Adolph Rupp, who was a substitute guard during most of his stay at Kansas in the early twenties, is one basketball coach who can outphog Phog Allen some of the time. Rupp coaches a perennially powerful Kentucky quintet that has become the glamor team of the Southeast for much the same reasons that Kansas is the "it" five of the Middlewest—voluminous publicity for the coach and sometime the players.
Rupp never misses a chance to engage in or manufacture controversies. Before he went to Kentucky the Wildcats were noted for colorless quintets, but Rupp cured that. He announced his arrival by mountain feuding with other schools. When bronxed by crowds he bows right and left, offers comments on "nasty" audiences, orders his cagers to crush the home team, irritates opposing coaches.
Adolph has become so wellknown that crowds all over the South know him as "the man in the brown suit." Besides talking a good game like his tutor, Rupp plays a good game. Kentucky had its usual good year last season as it won 19 and lost 4 games. The man in the brown suit brings results. Kentucky is satisfied.
SCHAAKE SAYS IT WAS ALL A MISTAKE
Ralph Schaake, mistakenly called to active duty by the Navy, wants all his solicitious friends to know that it was all a mistake. The registrar's office had him erroneously graduating in January while he still needed 10 hours to be graduated in May. On being informed, the Navy withdrew Schaake's order until May.

Beta Theta Pi walked away in the second half last night to overwhelm the Sig Alph's 51-28. The SAE's started fast and led with seven points at the quarter, on a couple of shots by Lynn Williams.
After the first quarter it was a Beta show as they went ahead at the intermission, 16-12. In the second half, Rans Bennett, Don Dichl, and Jim Roderick all started hitting the basket while Bob O'Neil's defensive play was a large factor in keeping the Sig Alph's offense from clicking.
This leaves the Beta's second to undefeated Phi Delta Theta in Division I. The Beta's have suffered one loss at the hands of the Delta Chi's.
Templin hall went down to defeat, the victim of a smooth working Alpha Chi Sigma quintet, 27-45. Alpha Chi Sig kept Bob Corder bottled and at the same time fed Warren Lowen for 17 points while Metz Wright swished 13 from a guard position.
Second To Phi Delt's
The Hellhounds played as if they just had a good shot of hell's fire in overrunning Jayhawk Co-op, 48-18. Harry Wherry bagged 20 points while teammate Carl Unruh came through with 11 points. Gerald Jepson of the Co-ops was the only one on his team who could make more than three points as he connected for eight counters.
Smull Leads Phi Gam
In the first of the B games Ned Smull led the Phi Gam five to a 35-17 victory over Templin hall. Smull scored 13 for the Fiji's while Dale Lingelbach tallied seven for Templin.
Delta Upsilon did everything wrong except throw the ball through the wrong basket in its defeat by the Sig Alph's 28-11. Bill Daugherty and Beechie Musser were high scorers for the Sig Alph's with 10 and nine points respectively.
7:30—John Moore vs. Ramblers.

A Grudge Battle
By MILO FARNETI Kansan Sports Editi
Kansas will play the Olath itorium at 7:45 tonight in the Missouri will meet Great Lakes at 9:30. Opponents will be reversed Saturday with the Jayhawks playing Great Lakes in the nightean
Kansas will play the Olathe Clippers in the Municipal auditorium at 7:45 tonight in the first game of a double header. Missouri will meet Great Lakes $ ^ { \dagger } $
Sailors Equal Black
Although the grudge battle between Olathe and Kansas tops tonight's card, more interest is being shown in the Kansas-Great Lakes clash tomorrow night.
Ranked as the nation's best quintet, Great Lakes has won 18 of 20 games, losing only to Illinois and Northwestern. Kansas, winner of 12 straight before losing to lowly Camp Crowder, can climb back by upsetting the sailors.
Olathe has acquired more finesse since its 60-32 debacle in Hoch. Bill Menke, compiler of few points in early season, has developed into the leading Clipper scorer. Homer Wesche, Grady Lewis, Don Lockard, and Bill Hahn round out the Jack Gardner's beefy five.
Leading scorer and rebounder Charlie Black will meet Great Lake offensive and defensive power matching his own. Top pointmaker Bob Davies of Seton Hall scored 17 points as the sailors whipped Wisconsin 61-43 Tuesday. George Glamack, Dick Klein and George Hamburg are defensive giants capable of outplaying the Kansas ace.
Great Lakes will meet a better Kansas team than the one it humiliated 53-37 at Kansas City last season. Black, John Buescher, and Ray
Evans all scored less than 10 points in that game. The sailors grabbed most rebounds, halted the fast break and kept Kansas offense from working the ball in.
Kansas May Win
If Black feels like putting forth his best effort a Kansas victory wouldn't be too surprising, for the Jayhawkers displayed power capable of overwhelming any quintet in the nation on their Eastern road swing and against Olathe and Missouri a few weeks ago.
Great Lakes has employed two units in averaging 60 points in 19 games this season. The starting five, John Hiller and Wilbur Schumacher forwards; Dick Klein, center; George Sobe and Gil Huffman, guards; uses a modified fast break and scores less than the racehorse second unit.
Three of the sailor's four top scorers—Davies, Eddie Riska of Notre Dame and Bob Dietz of Butler-play on the cleanup unit.
Kansas will be well represented by the 25-piece Cowboy band and students. Olathe will send its sailor swing band.
