The Delta Chi's close the season against Phi Alpha Delta, cellar team in Division I. In the evening's other games, Acacia nosed out Kappa Sigma 23 to 21 while Newman II rang up its eighth straight triumph over the Caballeros by the decisive margin of 38 to 22. The Delta Chi's were never headed as they poured in 11 points in the opening half and presented a goal-tight defense which held the Sigma Nu's to a solitary free toss. Collins, Sigma Nu forward, led a second half rally, which outscored the Delta Chi's for the final period but fell 10 points short of victory. Callow and Zimmerman were the sparkplugs in the Chi's important win. With Eugene Sanneman, brother of the K.U. varsity man, on a scoring rampage, Newman II never had the trouble anticipated from the Caballeros. Sanneman gathered 18 points, 13 in the first half to give his teammates a 24 to 10 lead at that time. Blair, Caballero scoring ace, stood out for the losers. In a thrilling overtime battle, free throws by Bill Kopp and Ned Martin, Acacia, furnished the twopoint winning margin over Kappa Sigma. Tied up 21-all at the end of regular playing time, the two free tosses gave Acacia their third win in eight contests. Livengood's consistent goal shooting gave Acacia a 13 to 6 first half lead.

MARVIN SOLLENBERGER THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS Allen—His flaming spirit, last minute pass interception, and clutch goal shooting were reasons for Jayhawker victory. Hall—His sustained fight, all-around excellence, and five point offensive splurge lent a big helping hand to a seemingly hopeless Jayhawker cause. Kline—Set a new individual scoring high with nine points in addition to a fine defensive and rebound game. Sollenberger—His four field goals, three of which came at crucial times in the final half, kept the Jayhawker nets hot when offensive minded teammates missed fire. Engleman—His 15 point scoring blast and hustling floor game helped keep the Jayhawk spirit high throughout a disheartening last half. Coach James Raport has named Betty Allen, Ida Moyer, Lorraine Polson, and Virginia Elliott to face them. WILDCATS DOWNED-did recovery, but the irrepressible Beaumont burned the twine from far out again to keep his club a point in front with eight minutes remaining.

Lean John Buescher gave the lead back to Kansas a moment later with a set-up and free throw, but Horace tied it up when Buescher committed his final foul. Langvardt got loose for a set-up and a 31-29 Aggie lead. The hemp-heired Aggie footballer was removed from the game dazed, a few minutes later when he crashed into the doors at the east end of the court in an effort to stop Allen's frantic set-up try. Allen made good one of his free throw attempts which was countered by another from Beaumont and the Kansans still trailed 32-31. Sollenberger dropped in a splendid recovery, but the irrepressible Beaumont burned the twine from far out again to keep his club a point in front with eight minutes remaining. Ags Won't Quit Allen brought Kansas fans to their feet as he slammed through the Aggie defense for a setup, but Guy immediately snatched the lead back with a lefthander from the free throw line. With six minutes remaining Wildcat coach Jack Gardner summoned Langvardt from the dressing room and pulled the weary Beaumont off the bench in preparation for the final upsetting crash. K. U.--K. S. Fought a Mighty CLOSE Game Last Night BUT— You'll never know how close it is to Spring until you see our New Spring merchandise--cat coach Jack Gardner summoned Langvardt from the dressing room and pulled the weary Beaumont off the bench in preparation for the final upsetting crash. SUITS SHOES DOBB'S HATS Everything for the college man Ober's HEAD-TO-FOOT OUTFITTERS Engleman dumped in a goal and a charity and Kline added a free toss to offset three free throws by Horacek and Howe as the first half ended 21-14. Langvardt responded in a trice with a long right-handed poke from the side to put the Ags in the van by three points. Kline and Allen added two more goals to pull the count to 17-7 before Horacek hit the Aggiees' only other first half field goal six minutes before the intermission. After Norris Holstrom, blond Aggie guard, had muffed a charity attempt Allen tied the count on Mendenhall's third infraction. Kline and Langvardt traded free throws, then Sollenberger roared in for his final goal of the night to put the Red and Blue within one point of the battling Wildcats with only two and a half minutes left. Howe then leveled K.U. rooters to despair with what looked like the game clinching basket, a long two hander from the side, but Bobby crashed down the south side-line soon after for his game tying interception to send the contest into overtime. Beaumont and Howe got the visitors off to a 3-0 lead in the opening minutes, but Allen, Kline, and Engleman soon ran the count to 13-5 while the tight Jayhawker defense forced the invaders to fire ineffectively from long range. Drab Opening Stanza The ragged first half was as far from a typical K.U.-Kansas State melee as could be expected.
