Sig Alph's Conquer Phi Psi's In Division II
By CLINT KANAGA
Two unbeaten elevens with five victories each, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Phi Kappa Psi met yesterday for a share of the championship of Division II. After a long and lusty battle, the Sig Alph's emerged with the title share and an impressive 13-0 victory. The Sig Alph's definitely are of championship caliber.
In other eleven man contests, Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Phi Epsilon strengthened their chance of gaining playoff berths by downing Alpha Tau Omega and Delta Upsilon respectively. Each won by a touchdown margin, the Phi Delt's 6-0 and the Sig Ep's 12 to 6. Delta Chi squelched all Delta Tau Delta playoff hopes by nosing out an 8 to 6 win.
Harp, Kelchner Star
Aces of the Sig Alph triumph were Dick Harp and Jim Kelchner. The Alph's scored early in the first quarter on a short running pass from Harp to Musser. The Phi Psi's then proceeded to give the Sig Alph's their only scare of the game on two long passes from Knight to Arbuckle. The
second touchdown for the S.A.E. eleven came on another short flip from Harp to Kelchner. Standouts defensively were Ziegelmeyer, Sig Alph, and Campbell, Phi Psi.
"Ribbie" Woodbury, Phi Delt end, make a spectacular catch of a long pass from teammate Newcomer for the Phi Delt touchdown and winning margin. The score came early in the fourth quarter. Game stars were Howard, Webb, and Myers for A.T.O. and Prager, McGee, and Cheatham for the Phi Delt's.

New Cage Backboards Popular
Evidence that the new fan-shaped back-boards which Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen's cagers have been using for the past four weeks are becoming more popular was indicated this morning when word was received by Dr. Allen that more than 20 new boards have been installed in schools in Kansas and surrounding states.
The all-steel basketball banks recently installed have a 43 per cent less surface area than the old boards. The wooden boards had an area of 24 square feet while the new steel boards have only 10.3 square feet from which to deflect the ball into the goal. The boards have an entirely plane surface with no convex or concave portions as had been previously advocated.
Kappa To Play IWW For Volleyball Title
Two schools whom the Jayhawkers will tackle in February, Wichita University and Oklahoma A. & M., have erected the new backboards as have all of the Big Six members. This makes a total of 15 games in which the new backboards are to be used in all probability the three games scheduled in the East on the Christmas trip will be played on courts utilizing the new style of boards.
The ancient intramural rivalry between the Kappa's and the Pi Phi's resounded again Wednesday night when the two teams met in the volleyball semi-finals of the organized houses. After tying at the half, the Kappa's finally got the needed points to defeat the Pi Phi's, 32 to 23.
The Kappa's then met Corbin hall in the finals last night and beat the Corbin team 36 to 23. The all-school championship will be decided Monday night when the Kappa's will play the IWW, the undefeated independent team.

Pick 'Em Contest On
their fourth victory in five starts. Saveley tallied the two Sig Ep touchdowns but was supported by the fine play of fellow backs, Kresie, Cooper, and Martin. The D.U. eleven played its best game to date but it wasn't quite enough.
An eight point Delta Chi lead was too much to surmount as the Delta
Tau Delta players made a gallant but futile attempt to overcome it in the last quarter. Sherman passed to Burton for the Delta Chi six-pointer and Burton added a safety in the second period. The Delta Tau's gained their tally as a result of a blocked kick. Outstanding players were Stapleton, Delta Tau, and Bierney, Delta Chi.
