PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1942 The two games over the past weekend have brought out several interesting revelations. First of all, the 60 points registered by the Jayhawkers Monday night is the highest score ever tallied in a Big Six conference game by Kansas. The former record was set in 1939 when the Oklahoma Sooners were defeated 59 to 45. The Nebraska game almost brought forth a new record concerning the margin of victory rolled up by a Jayhawker crew. In 1932 Coach "Phog" Allen's outfit trampled the Cornhuskers beneath a 51 to 19 count for a margin of 32 points or four more than the Saturday margin. An odd coincidence is that the highest score ever made against the Jayhawks in the Big Six was made in the game following that Oklahoma clash in 1939. Missouri was the opponent as well as the victor, 55 to 30. RECORDS MAY COME BUT LET'S WAIT The Saturday night game might also have set four other new records. No official tabulations have been kept concerning these marks so it is entirely problematical. First of these concerns the margin of lead which the Kansas had at the half-way mark, 29 to 8 or 21 points. Second is the defensive mark of holding the opposing team to only 8 points for the first 20 minutes of play. The third possible record is holding a team to just one field goal during the first half. And the final mark was the lead which the Jayhawks had gained at the end of 10 minutes of play, 20 to 3. With these figures out of the way it might be interesting to note just what new records the Kansas team can point to now. Two of these seem to be within easy reach of the Jayhawks. At present Kansas has scored 358 points in seven conference games. This is an average of 51.1 points a game. The record average of 46.2 set by Oklahoma in 1939 added up to 462 points in 10 games. That means K.U. is just 104 points behind the record at this time. An average of 35 points a game in the three remaining league contests would establish a new record in this department. Another record which seems certain to fall is the field goal record. The Kansans have totaled 147 goals in seven games for an average of 21 goals a game. The record for this item it also held by Oklahoma and also gained in 1939. It is a total of 185 goals for 10 games or an average of 18.5 goals. Kansas needs only 38 goals to tie the record or an average of 13 goals against Oklahoma, Kansas State, and Missouri to break the mark. The possibility still exists that "Ramin" Ralph Miller may stay on the fire-wagon and break either Howard Engleman's school record of 27 points a game or both the school record and the conference mark by tallying more than the 30 points which Jimmy McNatt racked up against Nebraska in 1940. Above all of these possibilities, however, rests the chance that the Jayhawkers may go ahead to win the conference crown, the Western N.C.A.A play-offs, and finally become National champions in the N.C.A.A. final playoffs. But all of this seems too good for even the most optimistic prognosticator to predict so it would be well to let those game Jayhawkers go along and play and win each game as it comes up and let the titles fall where they may. SHOOTING EYES OF JAYHAWKERS IMPROVING Tabulations at the Iowa State game show that Ray Evans had the highest percentage of successful attempts at the basket for the Kansas team. Evans shot 9 times and connected 4 times for a record of 44 per cent. Ralph Miller followed closely with 11 baskets out of 29 attempts for 38 per cent, Charlie Black made 8 buckets out of 27 shots for 29 per cent, and Johnny Buescher made 1 out of 11 for 9 per cent. T. P. Hunter, who played 34 minutes of the game after replacing Bobby Johnson, took only two shots and made one of them. For Iowa State it was Rollin "Keeb" Kueber all the way. He shot just 15 times but connected 7 times for a remarkable percentage of 46. Carol Schneider was next with 5 goals out of 18 shots for 28 per cent. The great Al Budolffon shot 25 times but made only 4 buckets for a 16 per cent average. Bob Harris got one goal for his 10 attempts for a 10 per cent mark. Team averages show that Kansas took 80 shots, making 25, for an average of 31 per cent. Iowa State took 76 shots, made just 19 baskets, and wound up with a mark of 25 per cent. This percentage of shots is the best registered by the team in their last three high-scoring home appearances. Against Nebraska Saturday night 90 shots were attempted and 24 dropped through the hoop for an average of 26.7 per cent. Against Creighton the percentage was 30 as 21 baskets were made on 70 shots. Odds and ends: Nebraska took 25 shots in the first half of the game Saturday night and made only 1 for a mark of 4 per cent. . . . That sounds like a record but not one that would be very popular. . . . "All the schools in the East," Johnny Glemn, Coach Allen's guest from Beardstown, Ill., said, "are coming to start their games in the same manner that K.U. has always done. That is, turn out the lights as the national anthem is played while the flag is being raised." . . . Midway during the first half of the Iowa State game "Cappy" Miller came charging down the court. He hit Bob Harris, Cyclone forward, a glancing blow which sent the latter to the floor and Miller reeled on down the court. He hadn't gone three steps and was just coming out of his spin when Rollin Kuebler, Iowa State center, stepped in front of "Cappy" and the Cyclone hit the floor and bounced up and down several times while Miller went careening down the floor. . . Once when Bob Harris came out of the line-up he emplored Coach Louis Menze to send in someone to stop Ray Evans. So Harris said, "Evans is going wild out there, I can't stop him." Monday night's refereeing was poor as ever. . . University fans should realize by this time how bad the refereeing are and reconcile themselves to the fact. . . It doesn't do any good to "boo" the officials and causes further antagonism. . . Why boo when we're ahead anyway? MILLER DID HIS WORK WELL A.T.O.'s Gain 4-Point Win A strong Delta Chi last half rally fell short last night, and the Alpha Tau Omega squad defeated the Delta Chi's in a Division I intramural basketball game 31 to 27. By DON KEOWN Trailing 22 to 12 at half-time after a bad second quarter, the losers pulled up to within one point of the A.T.O. squad at one point in the final period. Superior ball handling in the Leading the A.T.O. attack was clever Dick Webb, who collected 16 points. All of Webb's tallies came in the first half, many of them on difficult angle shots. Ray Lednicky was nosed out the Phi Delta Theta "C" the Delta Chi top scorer with eight points. end, however, provided the winners with their margin. Oliver Bryant, a one-man-team, was not enough and he and his Tau Kappa Epsilon mates fell before Theta Tau 32 to 17. The brilliant Bryant accounted for all of the Teke points. Heading the winning engineers' attack were the veteran Francis Domingo and Busch Meredith. Harold Wright continued to hit the basket from all angles, as he lead the Alpha Chi Sigma team to a 37 to 19 rout over Acacia. Wright received able support from Herb Hoover, who accounted for 12 points to Wright's 14. Maurice Russ stood out for Acacia with three field goals. Halftime score of the game was 19 to 3 in favor of the victors. successful free throw in the last 30 team in a well played Division VI game 28 to 27.
