ROTC Senior Reserves May Finish Year
Senior men of the University who are in the second year of advanced ROTC training and who are in the Army Enlisted Reserve, will be called to active duty upon the initiation of the Army Specialized Training Program, Dr. Laurence C. Woodruff, was advised yesterday from Seventh Service Command headquarters in Omaha. This means that these men will continue in school until graduation if they complete their college work prior to June 30. Then they will be sent to officer candidate schools to complete training before receiving commissions.

University May Face Fuel Shortage Soon
Faculty members were urged to turn off lights and radiators when not being used. In his letter, Chancellor Malott said that the power plant could not generate enough electricity to supply the University and that this year's expenditure for additional electricity would exceed the $17,000 spent last year.

Faculty members were city and heat and to increase fire precautions in a letter from Chancellor Deane W. Malott last Thursday. The Chancellor explained that while the gas contract had been renewed, gas could be cut off at any time by the War Production Board and the power plant would be forced to rely on their coal and oil supplies.
- Ity members were also cautioned to help save electri-
Fuel for the University power plant may not last until April if some effort is not made to conserve heat and electricity in the various campus buildings and other buildings on the University power circuit, it was announced yesterday by C. G. Bayles, superintendent of the building and grounds department.
A problem faced this year is the heating of Fowler Shops and Frank Strong hall at night for the Navy. This necessitates running the power turbines all night, and often makes some of the other buildings too warm. This can be partially offset, however, by turning off radiators for the night where it is possible. Drives Have Save Money
T. C. Ryther, war-time conservator for the University, said that in previous years power conservation drives have made it possible for the University to save as much as $100 a month. He also pointed out the residence halls could help with the programs as they, except for Hopkins, Jolliffe, and Ricker halls, are on the electrical circuit of the University and also receive heat from it.
Oklahoma Guard
Norman, Jan. 9 —(Special) Coach Phog Allen's Jayhawkers outraced a flustered Oklahoma cage five, 48-44, before 5,000 fans tonight to give Kansas its first victory on the Sooner court since 1938.
In defeating their strongest Big Six rival the Kansans relinquished the lead only once early in the first period when Oklahoma went ahead 13 to 11.
From the nine minute mark on the comparatively slow Sooners never threatened strongly. With John Buescher and Ray Evans sparking the Kansans' fast break, the Jayhawks
stretched a 21-19 halftime advantage to 35 to 22 with 10 minutes gone and 46 to 33 with only three and a half minutes left.
Leaders in the Kansas second half surge were Evans with four baskets, scrappy Armand Dixon, and Buescher. Charlie Black scored only 8 points, as Gerald Tucker carried on at the post. However, the big junior elbowed Tucker aside to capture the majority of offensive and defensive rebounds. Black held Tucker to 11 points.
Oklahoma passed and shot badly in the second half. During the first half the Sooners kept in the running on accurate set shooting by Allie Paine, "Manacles" McCurdy, and Dick Reich.
Only in the last three minutes did the Sooners recover to mildly scare Kansas in the last half. With the count 33-44, Reich, Ug Roberts, and Tucker scored five baskets and a free throw to draw up to 44 to 48.
In winning over the Sooners, with their seventh straight victory, the Jayhawks hit only 30 per cent (20 of 60) of their shots, while Oklahoma scored 40 per cent (18 of 45). The boxscore of the game follows:
