Tucker Leads Winfield To Title
BELL-owings by JIM BELL Kansas Sports Editor
Fred Praille, 38,' great Kansas all-
American guard, came into his own
the other eight against the Hollywood
Metros in the semi-finals of the A.A.U. tourney. The big man,
who was the spark of Doc Allen'
1937 - 38 championship crew, played a beautiful floor game around the backboards in the 11 points in the 52 - 30 Philipp win. For the better part of the season Pralle has been out of Philipp's line-up with
FRED PROLLLE app's up- with injuries. He never really got started until Friday night.
There's a lot of talk about this boy Tucker from Winfield floating around the campus. We, along with 90 per cent of the other sports fans here, are wondering what the chances 'are of his coming to K. U. year after next. They tell us, however, that the Tuckers are great supporters of Southwestern College at Winfield and that it would take almost a gift of Frank Strong hall, the Sigma Chi house and half interest in Bricks to get the boy to take Rhetoric on Mt. Oread.

This is the time of year when we wish the Kansan was like most newspapers and sent their sports editors to cover spring training among the baseball teams. Wouldn't it be swell to lay on the warm sun kissed beaches and watch the peach—er, baseball players?
- Vikings Win Sixth State High School Tournament From ELDorado in Finals Last Night; Ward High School of Kansas City Wins Consolation From Arkansas City
Topeka, March 18—The Winfield Vikings won their sixth state high school basketball championship when they outscored a hard fighting El Dorado team 22-18 last night in the finals of the 28th annual high school tournament held in the Topeka high school gymnasium.
In one of the most exciting games of the season Ward high school of Kansas City, who were the defending champions, won the consolation prize in the preliminary game of the evening by defeating Arkansas. City in an exciting two-overtime period
dereating Arkansas City in a game 38-36. This victory prevented the Ark Valley from sweeping the tournament as representative from that league won first and second.
The dope held true in the final game as the Winfield entry were pre-tournament favorites with most sports writers. But the Ark-Valley league champs had a fight on their hands in winning the tourney finale.
The EIDorade team placed a bane by the name of Dale Covert on the heralded Gerald Tucker and the Winfield flash had plenty of trouble getting any opportunities to shoot. Covert, who was an AL hitter, his 6 feet, 4 inches to good advantage in trying to guard Tucker.
But in spite of Covert's good work the victory by Wieldinfield would have been almost impossible without the services of their tall junior forward who is undoubtedly one of the outstanding high school players in the state. Tucker who not only can hit the basket with unencamy ability but is also a bulwark of strength on defense,
Weddle and Klein also rate honsors for their actions in the final game, both were fighting to take the ball off their own backboard after ElDorado shot. The ElDorado team was getting few chances for rebound shots as the Vikings fought for possession of the ball.
Winfield took an early lead and were never hard pressed as they led the way all through the game. In the second quarter the Vikings cooled off a little and due to close guarding were unable to counter them. Winfield received an 8-11 score as the first half ended. The last minutes of play were fast and furious. Winfield had a two point lead with one minute to go. ElDorado recovered the ball from the "stalling" Vikings. They shot and missed. Tucker recovered for Winfield and put the game on ice as he sank a field goal to put his team out in front four points with
Arkansas City led throughout the regular game until a few seconds before the game was over when Cyhel tied the score, up 36-36. In the first overtime period both teams failed to score, although both had numerous field goal chances and one free throw apiece.
In the second extra canto Tieran was fouled as he drove in for a setup and was fouled by Sideren. Tieran missed both shots but Cylel tipped the ball in after the second shot and Tieran was unable to rules in a second overtime period the team that first scores two points is declared winner.
