Roscoe Hambric and Larry McSpadden, Phi Gams—Hambric, second team all-star last year, went on a scoring spree against Kappa Eta Kappa by hitting nine goals and one free toss while McSpadden rang in 23 points against Battenfeld, to top Hambric's performance.
Joe Fournier, Newman I—Racked up 15 points against the Hellhounds, making him high scorer of Division III with a 14.5 average, which incidentally is tops for the intramural leagues this year.
Chet Gibbens, A.K. Psi—Hit a long, looping one-hander to defeat Delta Upsilon 22 to 20 in an overtime.
Joe Laird, Delta Tau—Sank the winning basket against the Sig Eps
as the Delta Taus won 27 to 25 and also topped his team's scoring list with five field goals.
Walter Sheridan, Sig Alph—Finished the season in a scoring spree with 13 and 17 points in his final two games. Thirty points in these contests gave him a season's average of 11.0 and the Division I scoring championship.
John Jenkins. Phi Delt "B"—Poured in baskets from every angle in tallying 23 points in his team's win over B attenfeld "B".
Bill Krum, Phi Psi "C"—Gathered 22 points in his first "Sigma" team game, playing against Sigma Chi "C", the highest total for individual scoring in "C" team ball.
Alvin Hecht, Dunakin I—Turned in his finest performance of the season against the Ohio Mountain Boys in hitting eight goals and three charity tosses.
Phi Psi's Gain Tie For First; Newman II Wins
By CLINT KANAGA
Phi Kappa Psi and Newman II each gained a share of their respective division championships by virtue of victories in yesterday's intramural contests. The Phi Psis defeated Alpha Chi Sigma 45 to 29 while Newman II turned back the Dead End Kids 50 to 28.
In achieving their eighth win in ten starts, the Phi Psis depended upon the entire lineup for scoring punch, with Bill Hodge and Tom Arbuckle especially proficient in this respect. The Psis had a tough first half, leading only by a 19-14 margin at the end of the first 16 minutes. Yesterday's win deadlocked them in first place in Division I with Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Delta Chi.
Hot for the third straight game, Eugene Samneman warmed the hoop for 26 points as his Newman II registered their one-sided triumph over the Dead End Kids. Wilfred Bozeman starred for the losing outfit.
With Alvin Hecht and Harold Cunningham leading the attack, Dunakin I downed the Ohio Mountain Boys easily to the tune of 37 to 13. Hecht gathered 19 points to Cunningham's 11 tallies.
The Ichabods rated the victory column for the first time in many a moon by turning back a favored Dodger five, 38 to 26, with Lester Gronerman sparking the Ichabod offense. Gronerman topped the point-getting list with seven field goals and four free tosses. Warren Snyder was the outstanding man for the Dodgers
Pi Kappa Alpha climbed into a three-way second place tie with (continued to page five)

Kansans Hope For Revenge In Finale
Two teams whose title hopes in their respective league were destroyed Friday night, will attempt to salvage a final victory out of the 1941 season when Oklahoma A. and M. collides with Kansas in Hoch auditorium Tuesday night.
It could have been a battle to decide the N.C.A.A. playoff entry from this region, but now it is only a consolation match. `Although the Aggies trounced Drake 49-26 Friday night, their last chances of winning the Missouri Valley crown vanished when Creighton smashed Washburn the same night to catch the championship.`
The Jayhawk's hopes also flickered out the same night with their loss to Oklahoma, which gave Iowa State the right to represent the Big Six in the N. C. A. A. playoffs. Creighton and Iowa State will probably meet March 17 to decide which will enter the N.C.A.A. championships. Last Game for Seniors
The Cowboys squeezed past the Jayhawks, 30-26 in a previous meeting this year at Stillwater. In that game, the Aggies played without the services of Lonnie Eggleston, deadeye junior forward who was out with a broken hand. Eggleston has recovered since then and will be ready to start against the Allenmen. Ags Strong on Defense
While famous for their revolving offense, which operates much the same as a series of double reverses on the gridiron, the Aggies also throw up a rugged defense. Vern Schwertfeger, 6 foot, 5 inch center, plays a rebound game comparable to that of Hugh Ford's. Harvey Pate a senior guard, covered Howard Engleman like a wet blanket and held him to a meager three points at Stillwater.
Meanwhile, the Aggies and Jayhawks, runners-up in the two conferences, meet Tuesday in the final game of the season. The three honorary co-captains, Howard Engleman, Bob Allen, and John Kline, and Norman Sanneman, senior utility man, will end their collegiate basketball careers in the game.
Bud Millikan, who was given credit for interfering with Bob Allen's "feeders" to Engleman, will again start at a sentinel post. Millikan and Leroy Floyd, senior forward, both tallied nine points against Drake Friday.
