sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
Despite the Jayhawker's efficient performance in upsetting Iowa State Monday night, Dr. Allen is still giving the Big Six title to the well-balanced Cyclones.
Allen believes that in addition to having a fine all-around club, the Iowans have the best combination In the loop in two tall men and three smaller aggressive players.
Another fact in their favor, he reasons, is the virtually equal distribution of scoring among the Cyclone players, all of whom command a better than five-point average with none higher than 8.5 for the season. Nicholas and Schneider furnish the rebounding height and hold up well in the seoring column while DeKoster, Gordon, and Budolfson are scrappy, tough, and can hit.
"Phog" was high in his praise of Leon Uknes, the northerner's husky sophromore forward who counted six points in a substitute role against the Jayhawkers. "He's one of the greatest money players I ever saw," Allen commented after the contest. "Phog" also thinks coach Louie Menze is one of the best coaching characters in the entire Midwest. Menze played under Allen at Warrensburg Teachers.
The Jayhawker mentor believes that his small club will be gradually beaten down by the superior height and weight of most of the other fives in the loop, and therefore will not cop the conference bunting.
"The advantage of a tall basketball player cannot be over-emphasized," Allen declared. "Too many people do not realize that the measurement from a man's toes to the top of his head is only his axial height. The real advantage comes in the tremendous reach of the tall player. A six-three-inch man for instance, is just three inches taller than a six-footer, but his reach will be five or six inches greater."
The grapevine has it that Ad Lindsey, one time Jayhawekr football coach, now a successful insurance man, will soon take over a job as
A.K.Psi's Fall Again; Newmans, Alphs Win
By CLINT KANAGA
An overconfident Alpha Kappa Psi five loafed too long against Carruth hall last night and the breathing spell proved fatal for the Businessmen. Carruth emerged victors 30 to 28 after an exciting overtime period. The two teams were deadlocked at 27-all at the end of the regular playing time.
Jack Doores, Carruth guard, was the big star of the contest. With 35 seconds remaining to play and his team trailing by two points, Doores executed a beautiful one-handed jump shot to put the game into an extra session. "Red" Thompson, A.K. Psi, put his team ahead in the overtime on a free throw but Doores again came through with another spectacular one-hander which broke the spirit of the A.K. Psi team. His teammate, Fredericks, widened the teammate, Fredericks, widened the final seconds. Denzil Gibbens, A.K. Psi grabbed the scoring honors with 13 points.
Phi Delts. Alphas Win
Phi Delta Theta gained a 500 rating for the season thus far, winning a thrilling 28-26 battle from Sigma Nu. Tied up at 21-apiece with a quarter to play, the Phi Deltus put on a scoring spurt that put them in front 28-21. Israel, Sigma Nu, hit a couple of baskets in the last two

One of the greatest athletes the University of Kansas has ever produced, Cunningham was in the top rank of track stars for nine years, during seven of which he was rated as the world's greatest miler.
With most of his swimmers ill with the flu, Coach Jim Raport has announced that the dual meet with Kansas State scheduled here tomorrow has been postponed.
This was the second cancellation of the week. The varsity-frost splash Tuesday was also postponed.
head of the athletic program at Camp Robinson, Ark.
Claimant to the best free throw record of the current season is Iowa captain Vic Siegal, who has sunk 22 of 25 tries in the Hawkeyes first nine games. Siegal is the clubs highest scorer with an eight point average.
Elkhart Express Is Housed Forever
Glenn Cunningham has run his last race. 'The Elkhart Express' is definitely through," says University track coach Bill Hargiss, who tutored Glenn throughout his college career.
Cunningham pulled a tendon in the lower part of his right leg while working out here in an effort to get in shape for indoor running in the east. He had announced his retirement last spring, but recently had decided to attempt a comeback.
May Have Boxing Team
Kansas may have a boxing team in the Topeka State Journal's Golden Gloves tournament if conference permission is granted by the Big Six. Coach Jim Raport has written Dr. H. D. Bergman of Iowa State, chairman of the conference faculty representatives, for clarification of the Big Six rule on entering a boxing team in outside competition.
Since Roy Petsch, Nebraska quarterback, and other Husker athletes have boxed in the Omaha Golden Gloves, Raport hopes that his team will be granted permission. If consent is given, the team probably will not be allowed to compete under Kansas colors, but as an organization separate from the University.
Women's Intramurals
By JEAN MILAM
The TNT-IND basketball game tonight is going to depend on two persons, Gladys Bitter and Katherine Schaake. The former, star forward on the TNT team is poison when she gets the ball while Katherine Schaake, who shines as IND forward, averages from 12 to 16 points per game. Both of the teams have been defeated by the ETCs, slated Independent division winners.
The Kappas and Theetas will battle it out at the same time. This game promises to be close, with both teams high in the sorority bracket.
