PiKA's Maintain Pace
Knock Off Phi Delt's Yesterday
In one of the hardest-fought clashes of the intramural basketball season Pi Kappa Alpha, the team that almost beat Newman I. defeated Phi Delta Theta, the team that did beat the Newman's, 22 to 13, yesterday afternoon.
The victory kept the Pi K. A. outfit in the running for a playoff berth. Trailing 14 to 3 at half time, the Phi Delt's came back to outscore and outfight their opponents in the last half but the early Pi K. A. advantage proved too much.
Crawford Leads Scoring
The highly-touted Phi Delt aggregation was utterly unable to solve the puzzling Pi K. A. defense, and had to rely upon long shots for its scoring. Meanwhile the winners divided their scoring evenly with Joe Crawford collecting six points, and Bill Atwell, Bill Mathews, and LaDean McCormick each sinking two buckets.
In addition to his scoring, Atwell turned in a brilliant defensive performance as he held Chuck Hunter, Phi Delt ace, to five points. Matthews, tall forward, controlled the rebounds for his squad throughout the game.
In the other Saturday afternoon affair the Blanks scored an easy 34 to 18 victory over the Union Feunineers as they suddenly began to find the range in the second half. They had been held to a 12 to 8 lead at the end of the first period.
Cal Winter tallied 19 points for the Blanks, and his teammate Dewey Verhage added three field goals. Bob Woolverton led the Fountaineer scoring with six field goals.
The Sigma Chi defense stopped Harold Wright, Alpha Chi Sigma star, Friday night, but George Wagner and Dick Werling took over his scoring chores as the Chemists dumped the Sigma Chi's in a startling upset 27 to 23.
The Alpha Chi Sigma squad probably the most improved team in intramural ball during the past few weeks held an 11 to 10 lead
Intramural Stars of the Week
Rans Bennett, Beta Theta Pi—Bennett was the star of the stars this week as he piled up 33 points against the unfortunate Sig Nu', and then came back to score the tying and winning points against Sigma Phi Epsilon.
John Fletcher, Beta Theta Pi— Fletcher collected 28 points against Sigma Nu, and had another good night against the Sig Ep's, sinking four field goals.
Tony Coffin, Newman I—Coffin, probably the most valuable man in intramall arm, stood out with his fine floor game, defensive work, and scoring in his first appearance this year against Pi Kappa Alpha.
John Shelton, Beta Theta Pi "C"
—Shelton turned in the best lower division performance of the week as he contributed 20 points to the Beta's 58 to 18 victory over the A.T.O. "C" squad.
Bill Atwell, Pi Kappa Alpha—Atwell's fine rebounding and long-range sharpshooting almost beat mighty Newman I.
at the halfway mark. Jack Beck
dunked in five baskets for the losers.
A favored Newman II club had to come from behind to beat out the men of Battenfield hall 34 to 26. The winners trailed 13 to 19 at half-time.
Leading the red-hot Newman second-half attack was Bob Bell, who rang up 18 points for his evening's efforts. In even more sensational form was Warren Lowen, who was all over the court as he accounted for 22 of Battenfeld's points.
A Phi Kappa Psi squad that couldn't miss toyed with Kappa Sigma yesterday morning to score an easy 74 to 16 win. Bill Hodge, Phi Psi standout, pushed in 12 field goals, while teammate John Krum tallied 23 points. The Phi Psi's had grabbed a 32 to 8 lead at half-time.
Oliver Bryan, Tau Kappa Epsilon —Bryan came close to being a one-man-team as he scored all 17 of his team's points against Theta Tau, and also took scoring honors in the Acacia game.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon had little trouble handing Sigma Nu a 59 to 19 defeat in another Saturday morning contest. Ken Winters, Lynn Williams, and John Gage all scored at will for the winners.
Jim Webb, Alpha Tau Omega—Webb, a flashy forward, crammed 16 points into the basket in the first half as his team defeated the Delta Chi's 31 to 27.
No, Cleo, We Can't Help You!

Harold Wright, Alpha Chi Sigma—Wright makes the "stars" for the second straight week as he continued a string of fine performances for the Chemists with an outstanding floor game and 14 points against Acacia.
(She's just seen Anthony's new spring suit and she can't get over it.)
Chuck Hunter, Phi Delta Theta— Hunter led a strong attack that did give the Newman outfit its first defeat of the season.
No, we can't make a suit for you. We don't charge for doing nothing.

Suiting You That's Our Business

Delmar Green, Blanks—Green was hitting from all angles as he collected eight field goals while he and his teammates were defeating Jayhawk Coop 38 to 23.

Big Six Indoor Track Meet Comes Saturday
The finest field in history is slated to compete in the annual Big Six indoor track meet in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium Saturday.
Veterans of national ranking will combine with an outstanding crop of sophomores to make the big meet the most starstudded show the conference has ever put on.
€0-Yard Dash Is Feature
Heading the list of crack performers is Nebraska's Harold Hunt, 1941 national co-champion in the pole vault. A top mark of 14 feet 2 inches to his credit, Hunt appears certain to boost the meet record for his event which he set in Kansas City last year.
While no direct threat to Hunt this year, a trio of sophomore pole vaulters has shown great promise for the future. All former state high school champions, they include Billy Rothwell of Missouri, Howard Debus
of Nebraska and Ernie Nelson of Kansas State
Three of the finest sprinters the Big Six has ever produced will match strides in the 60-yard dash. Don Walters of Missouri, the defending champion in this event, will be pushed to the limit by Orv Matthews of Oklahoma and "Red" Littler of Nebraska.
Littler and Bill Lyda of Oklahoma, fourth and fifth, respectively, in the 440 yard dash at the national collegiate meet last June, are scheduled for another great duel in the quarter-mile.

ner, who was sitting behind Iba Friday night. . . . Iba would have made more "friends" than ever if the crowd would have known his half-time actions. . . . As he emerged from the dressing room he was informed by the official scorer and referees that three minutes remained before starting the second half. . . The "Sons of the South" were just getting up steam on the "Chattanooga Choo-Choo" at that time but Iba insisted in a surly manner, "When three minutes are up I want to start playing and not a moment later." . . . Then when the Alma Mater started Iba really got red and kept motioning for the officials to start play . . . Newman played sleeper on nearly all of the Jayhawker free throws. At the start of the second half the referees started calling Eggleston for traveling. . . . He had been taking steps the entire first half but wasn't noticed. . . At one time only three players were standing with the other seven players in a dog-fight on the floor. . . Both teams stalled at frequent intervals during the last half. . . With two seconds to play Evans gained possession of the ball and threw it the length of the court, the gun sounding with the ball in the air.
