Allen-Cox NCAA Feud Tonight
High School Science Meet Tomorrow
The departments of physics and chemistry are sponsoring a high school physical science conference here tomorrow. The purpose of the conference is to give high school students a better appreciation of the vocational and professional fields in the study of physical sciences and to stress the importance of physics and chemistry in the U. S. today.
Registration will be at 9:30 a.m.
At 10:30 J. D. Stranathan, professor of physics, will speak in Fraser theater. His subject will be physics in mechanized warfare. Following this assembly the group will attend a luncheon at the Memorial Union building. Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, will speak on "What Shall I Do After I Graduate?"
Following the luncheon there will be two lectures in Bailey chemical laboratories. At 1:30 p.m. Ray Q. Brewster, professor of chemistry, will speak on synthetic rubber, and at 2:30 p.m. T. T. Castonguay, instructor of chemical engineering will discuss "Super Fuels for Super Planes."
Laboratory demonstrations a n d exhibits will be given from 1:30 to 5 p.m. Mimeographed sheets, explaining some of the exhibits and their locations, may be obtained at the registration desk.

Money received from the sale of the paper will go into a common fund under the supervision of the War-Defense committee. At the end of the month, the money will be invested in defense bonds which will be given to the three winners of the contest on a 50-30-20 basis. Another contest may be instituted if the first proves successful, Wright said.
By Chuck Elliott, Kansan Sports Editor
It's been a long, rough road but at last the Jayhawkers are entering upon the last mile. The first step will come at 9:00 o'clock tonight when Kansas faces Colorado in the semi-finals of the N.C.A.A. Western Division playoffs at Kansas City in the Municipal auditorium.
The plan of the contest was outlined and explained in a meeting of the presidents of organized houses last Monday. Wright then emphasized 'important position that the saving of waste paper occupies in the national defense program.
The game tonight will be a classic just on the ability of the two teams themselves. But as a sidelight the fans will have the interesting spectacle of watching a pupil oppose his teacher
Hill Houses To Save Paper For Contest
A waste-paper-saving contest among organized houses on the Hill will start Monday and continue for a period of one month, under the supervision of the War-Defense committee of the Men's Student Council, Orville Wright, chairman of the committee, announced today.
The contest will be based on the total amount of newspapers, magazines, cardboard, and other types of waste paper that the individual houses can save during the month. Any organized house may enter the competition by appointing a captain to take charge of the saving, and by notifying Wright of the appointment before Friday, March 27.
The committee will take the full responsibility of bundling, transporting, and selling the paper. Houses have only to inform the committee that the paper is ready to be removed.
with no holds barred.
The case in question involves the Jayhawker coach, Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, testing his knowledge and years of experience against the craftiness and exuberance of youth in the form of Colorado's coach, Forrest "Frosty" Cox.
Played Under "Phog"
The two coaches have never had collegiate teams of their own coaching oppose each other. Cox graduated from Kansas in 1931 and was freshman basketball coach under Allen until 1935, when he went to Colorado as head cage coach. Since that time the teams have never met although a possibility arose in 1940 when both teams entered the Western Division playoffs of the NCAA tournament. The draw, however, did not place the two teams together the first night and Colorado lost its game, doing away with the chance of their meeting the next night.
This will be te seventh meeting of the two schools, with Kansas holding a victory-margin of five to one. The first three games were played in 1931 when Cox was a member of the Kansas crew. The Jayhawks won all three games. The

Roles Still Open For 'The Women'
Roles in Clare Booth's comedy, "The Women," are still available, Allen Crafton, professor of speech and drama and director of the play, announced today. Final tryouts for the remaining comedy parts will be held at 7 p.m. Monday in the little theater in Green hall.
The play will not be given as a staged reading as was previously reported, but will be presented as a full production. Definite dates and the cast for the play will be announced later, Professor Craftum said.
