Great Lakes Looks Strong
Clippers May Bow To Kansas
An even split for the Jayhawkers is the most optimistic prediction that can be made on the Friday and Saturday night games against the old Clippers and the young Great Lake cagers at Kansas City.
Olathe appeared to be too slow in the Clipper 60-?2 defeat here early this month as Grady Lewis, Homer Wesche, Don Lockard and Bill Menke, all 25 or over, tired under the bruising tactics of the speedy Jayhawkers.
Great Lakes Potent
But in Great Lakes, Kansas meets a naval five almost as young as itself. Also the five-man offense that has thrown Jayhawk opponents into dithers is more than matched by the all-American manned northern squad that whipped Kansas 53-37 last year. Not a man on the 12-man squad failed to make his all-conference team.
Flashiest of the sailors is Bob Davies of Seton Hall who is leading in scoring. Other stars are George Glamaack, Eddie Riska, Gil Huffman, selected from the best of last year's collegiate crop.
Friday night the Jayhawkers will take the floor against the Clippers for their third battle of the season. In the evening's second game the Missouri Tigers will furnish opposition to Great Lakes. On Saturday night the collegians will reverse their naval opponents with the Kansas meeting Great Lakes in the second game of the evening.
A Vaudeville Too
An extensive program has been planned for between halves and games. During intermission of the Kansas games, the Cowboy band, under the direction of Russell Wiley, will give its music the collegiate interpretation.
To increase the tempo even further, the swing band of the Olathe Naval Base will present another of its original jam sessions. Also the Wyandotte High School band will be on the floor to provide martial music for the gala affair. During the halves of the Olathe games, demonstration in boxing and hand-to-hand combat will be given by enlisted men from the base. Old Faces Will Appear.
Fans of the Kansas City area will see many familiar faces on the court when these four teams oppose each other. The Clippers will be making their seventh and eighth appearances of the season in the Municipal auditorium for the fifth and sixth times this season.
IWW Takes Corbin For Women's Title
Jayhawk Jabberwock
by Milo Farneti
Homer Wesche, Grady Lewis and assorted Clippers are quite mad at Charlie Black, ace Jayhawk rebounder, for the booting around he gave them in the Kansas 60-32 rout of che, especially asserted "Black's just Olathe here early in January. Weskilling us." Coach Jack Gardner got sore. Assistant Coach Marty Peters yelled "let him touch him first ,ref" when a Clipper cager fouled a Kansan.
Perhaps the oldish Clippers learned by experience that they couldn't outrough the footballish Jayhawkers. So it looks like the erratic Clippers will attempt to outfinesse the Iron Five Friday. Either way, rough or delicate, the game should be a pleaser. Phog Allen holds the love of neither Jack Gardner nor the Clippers, less so since his cagers humiliated the sailors in Hoch. For a grudge battle, the game compares only with the Oklahoma-Kansas contest to be played in Hoch Feb. 26.
PHI DELT'S BEST
Phi Delta Theta easily appears to have intramural basketball's best quintet. The crisp passing and shooting of Kirk Scott, Herb Kauffman, Walt Quiring and John Dewell has been steadily excellent while contenders Beta Theta Pi, Blanks, Pi Kappa Alpha and Phi Gamma Delta have been bumping around. All of the fives named, except the Phi Gam's, are leading their divisions. They are expected to be semifinalists in intramural championship play.
Your Spring Hat Is Here — It's a Stetson--different story, however, and on shooting of Larry McSpadden and Bill Palmer, the Fiji's jumped into the lead with but a minute and one-half to go. Ellis Nicolet got a tipin to put the Phi Psi's out in front and Paul Carpenter scored to ice the game.
K.U. Navy Defeats Vinland, 63-50 For Fourth Victory
The Naval Training School cagers chalked up their fourth consecutive victory Tuesday defeating Vinland by a 63 to 50 count.
Vinland's small court put the sailors at a disadvantage in the opening minutes of the game, and the home team tallied eight points before the Navy could find the net. This advantage was overcome by half time and the scoreboard read Navy 27, Vinland 27.
Pi Kappa Alpha, leading Division II in the intramural basketball race. will play the Navy队 at 7:30 tonight in the Community building.

Phi Psi Upsets Phi Gams 33-30
Phi Kappa Psi emerged victor over a heavily favored Phi Gam five, 33-30, in one of the best games of the season Tuesday night. Reversing the outcome of the championship game of last year made victory sweet for the Phi Psi's.
Rolling in 11 points before the Phi Gams scored gave Phi Psi a lead that was hard to overcome. The second half was a
In the other game Tuesday night, Delta Chi took a rough contest from ATO, 26-21. The Delta Chi's, who average about 180 pounds per man, led all the way with Elton Winter and Gene Sherwood turning in top performances. George Robb, ATO, led his team mates on the floor and scored seven points.
Phi Psi's improvement can be credited partly to the play of Gene Olsen, fresh from play with Parsons Junior College.
Sigma Chi defeated Delta Tau 30-23 in the headliner Wednesday night. The Sigma Chi's, noticeably lacking the services of Bud French, who was drafted, were not threatened by the Delt's, whose star, Hoyt Baker has joined the varsity squad. Jack Beck and "Little Bill" Stowits led Sigma Chi with nine and six points respectively. Ralph Hedges scored seven points for the Delt's.
Sigma Nu led the way in downing a Sig Ep team that couldn't seem to get going. Glenn St. Aubyn and Walt Michaelis accounted for 25 of Sigma Nu's points. Larry Stream and Otto Teichgraeer scored six apiece for the Sig ep's.
In the only B game of the evening ATO edged out Sigma Chi 24-23. Big Kenneth Cates who shoots the ball like a farmer pitching hay racked up 15 points for the ATO's while Jack Wilson led the Sigma Chi's with eight points.

Sooners Face Road Jaunt
Norman, Jan. 28 (Special)—Oklahoma's basketball team will try its hand this weekend at road play, long a precarious undertaking in the Big Six conference. Coach Bruce Drake's Sooners meet Nebraska at Lincoln Saturday night and Iowa State at Ames Monday.
Both are formidable undertakings. Nebraska recently held Indiana's current Big Ten leaders to a one-point triumph, 40-39, at Lincoln. Iowa State is notorious tough on its small floor, defeating co-champions Kansas and Oklahoma there last year and upending Nebraska this season, 50-38. Oklahoma's promising club must win both games to make up ground in the Big Six race.
