MU Will Open Big Six Race in Hoch
Jayhawks Smash Clippers 60-32 In Bruising Tilt
By BILL FEENEY
In a complete reversal of form displayed in their last naval encounter, the Kansas Jayhawks scored a wild 60-32 victory over the Olathe Clippers in Hoch auditorium last night, and gained ample revenge for the 29-40 clubbing given by the sailor five in Kansas City Dec. 5.
Forwards Charley Black and Otto Schnellbacher were as hot as the Clipper aces were cold, scoring 15 and 16 points respectively, to account for more than half the team total.
For the Clippers, Bill Menke, former Indiana University star, could not find the basket with his one-handed push shot, but shared the dubious scoring honors for the sailors with Bill Hahn, both men gathering six points. Bad passing and the tight Jayhawk defense rendered Clipper tactics ineffective.
The game was a roughhouse in the second half, when tempers flared to the point where no player was on his feet for more than 10 seconds at a stretch and a regiment of referees would have been necessary to check all fouls. Grady Lewis and Thomas of the Clippers, and Black of K U went out on fouls in the second half. Early Kansas Lead
The Jayhaws jumped to an early advantage, Schnellbacher, Black, and John Buescher piling an 8 to 0 lead in the first eight minutes before Hahn scored for the Clippers. The Clippers began to close the gap after this, and tied the score at 15-15 with six minutes to go, the only point during the game when the Clippers were on even terms with Kansas.
Black and Schnellbacher took over the Jayhawks scoring from this point pumping in 11 points in the last five minutes of the half, making the count 26-19 at shower time.
Bottling up the Clippers with only four points in the first eight minutes of the second half, while scoring 15, Kansas dominated the floor.

IF ONLY KU'S GRIDDERS COULD PLAY AS WELL
Several athletic equipment company representatives have called on Coaches Phog Allen and Jack Gardner today after hearing about the football game that passed for a basketball contest in Hoch last night. They might get a few orders for shoulder, hip, and blocking pads. Good luck.

HURT STAYS THROUGH JANUARY
Apparently the Kansas football situation remains stationary. Assistant Coach Vic Hurt, who resigned early in December, effective Jan. 1 has been retained through January. The Athletic board refused Hurt's resignation in its December meeting, but has not voted definitely whether he is to stay or be released after this month.
