Frosh to Me Fives Will Collide In Return Tilt. Feb. 7
A rematch of the Jayhawk varsity quintet and the crack freshman five have been set for Feb. 7, Dr. Allen, Jayhawk basketball coach, announced yesterday.
The first meeting of the two teams was a thriller in which the varsity nosed out the yearlings 33-31 prior to the start of the regular season. The freshman have been asking for another shot at upperclassmen ever since.
Rated as the finest freshman team in K.U. history by Doctor Allen, the yearling outfit is a well-rounded one. Natural ability, height, weight and drive characterize the freshman cagers.
An Ace In Evans
Expected to develop into one of K.U.'s all-time basketball greats is Ray Evans, all-around star from Wy- andotte high school in Kansas City, Kan. Evans played in the earlier varsity-freshman game with only two days practice and was the outstanding man on the floor.
The husky Wyandotte boy has the fans raving with his superb "feeding" of the freshman forwards. Not content with putting on a show with his passing, Evans led the freshman scorers with 11 points. He hit from close range and he hit from long range and mixed this with some beautiful dribbling and rebound work.
Teaming with Evans at guard will be another football ace, Don "Red" Ettinger. This 6 foot 2 inch lad from William Chrisman high school has more drive than a locomotive. While not a polished player yet, Ettinger has a world of natural ability.
Ettinger scored 7 points in the previous varsity-freshman go, but had to yield second high scoring honors to Paul Turner, 6 foot forward from Shawnee Mission high school. Turner sank four of his neat left hand shots and added a free throw for 9 points.
The freshmen's big center, 6 foot 6 inch Jack Ballard, was limited to 4 points in the last game, but should do considerably better this time. The Kansas City boy appeared nervous in the earlier clash, but should not have that trouble again. Brill Hopes Are Up
Roundout out the frosh quintet is big Charlie Black, who like Ballard is from Southwest high in Kansas City, Mo. Black, who stands 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighs 190 pounds, was way off his game in the other contest with the varsity. This time he should play the ball of which he is capable.
Additional help for the freshman is in sight with the possibility that Bill Brill, ex-Wyandotte star, may be available. Brill, 6 foot 2 inch defensive ace, has been getting his grades up and may reach the level required by Doctor Allen.
Fordham-KU Game In "Friday"
Both the Kansas basketball team and Fred Pralle, Jayhawk all-American in 1938, broke into weekly picture magazines recently.
The Jayhawks are pictured in their game with Fordham in New York Madison Square Garden in the Jan. 21 issue of "Friday." Pralle, now a member of the Bartlesville, Ok. Phillips 66 basketball squad, appears in the Feb. issue of "Pic."
Huskers Upset Cyclones,38-34
Ames, Jan. 25—(Special)—Nebraska's giants sprang one of the biggest upsets of the current basketball campaign by downing Iowa State 38-34 here tonight on the Cyclones' home court. It was the first time this year that Iowa State had been beaten at home.
Nebraska's starting lineup averaged 6 feet 3 inches to the man and this made a world of difference on rebounds. The Cornhuskers started slowly, trailing 12-2 at one time, but got hot late in the first half.
The big men of the two teams did virtually all the scoring as the players battled all over the court. Al Randall, 6 foot 7 inch center, led the Huskers with 12 points. Nebraska's two 6 foot 4 inch guards, Sid Held and Don Fitz, collected 10 and 7 points, respectively.
High point man of the evening was Gordon Nicholas, Iowa State center, who marked up 13 counters. The Cyclones 6 foot 6 inch guard, Carol Schneider, sank five field goals
The game started as though it was to be an Iowa State rout, with the Cyclones racing off to a 12-2 lead. Nebraska then spurted temporarily to make the scroe 12-9. Iowa State's offense perked up for a while to put Coach Louis Menzel's team out in front 17-9. The remainder of the first half saw N.U. pulling up until it trailed only by two points, 19-17, at the intermission.
The second half started with two Nebraska field goals to put the Huskers out in front for the first time. Play was bitterly contested until the tall Nebranskans began to get hot and pulled away to a 36-29 lead.
Shifting To High---on Display
A desperate rally by Iowa State cut the lead to 36-34 with only three minutes to play, but the Huskers managed to stall out the game and to get Randall loose for another goal.
HUGH FORD
Up to his old trick of snaring certain goals off the lip of opposing baskets was six-foot seven-inch Hugh Ford Friday night as he led Oklahoma to a 49-32 victory over Missouri in Norman. Slowed down by a heavy cold in his first two engagements, Ford now has a 9 point 4 game conference scoring average.
K.C. Auditorium Scene of NCAA Tourney Again
Municipal auditorium, Kansas City, Mo., will again be the scene of the National Collegiate Athletic association's western division and championship basketball playoffs. The western playoffs will be staged March 21-22 with the national championship game being held March 29.
The western eliminations will bring together the Pacific coast, Rocky mountain, Southwest, and Missouri valley champions. Kansas beat Southern California in the western division finals in its drive for runnerup honors to Indiana last year.
Six Clubs Loom As Threat To Fijis
By CLINT KANAGA
With the intramural basketball season half gone, several teams loom as possible upsetters of Phi Gamma Delta, last year's champion.
Outfits which look the best at present are Delta Chi, Beta Theta Pi, Newman Club I,Newman Club II, Sigma Chi, and Phi Kappa Psi. The first four named are undefeated in their respective divisions.
The defending titleholders will have their hands full trying to win a share of their division title, much less the 1941 championship. Wally Hinshaw has made a fine fifth man for last season's four regulars—Healy, Long, McSpadden, Hambric; but the loss of Jim Morris, intramural's best rebounder in 1940, seems to have been to much for them.
Others Have Playoff Chance
Teams with playoff chances besides the top six title contenders are Tau Kappa Epsilon, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Carruth Hall, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Hellhounds, and the
Caballeros.
In "B" team basketball, the Phi Gams, eBtas, Phi Psis, and the Phi Delts are all-victorious while the Delta Chis, Sig Alphs, and Sigma Chis have suffered only one loss each.
Every week in the Kansan a Stars of the Week column appears attempting to recognize the standout individual performances over a seven-day period. Ed Hall, Delta Chi, and Larry McSpadden, Phi Gam, have copped the honor three times, while Joe Fournier, Newman I; Chuck Wenstrand, Delta Chi; Chain Healy, Phi Gam; Fred Littoy, Beta; Jim Sealy, Phi Pi; and Walt Sheridan, Sig Alph, have cracked the column twice each. No All-Star Bertha Yet
However, all-star recognition will be given over the whole season's play and playoffs so no berth on the 1941 mythical team is cinched by any manner or means. The allstar selections will be made on season consistent play, game after game.
