The Hounds, smaller but more aggressive, jumped into an early 11 to 4 lead over the listless Pal's and were scoring from all angles to lead to 10 at the half. Fugit and Pal scored 14 of the Hounds' 15 first half points and their rebounding was so exceptional that the Pal's seldom recovered their shots and got another attempt at the basket, scoring only three goals during the period.

Big Kappa Sig Rally A last quarter rally by Kapp, Sigma gave them a 31 to 25 victory over Phi Delta Theta, eliminating them from further competition in the playoffs. This was sweet revenge for the Sig's who had lost a 23 to 19 to the Phi Deltas in the regularly scheduled playing season. The Kappa Sig's with Hensley Cave and Keown hitting the basker went into a 13 to 8 lead over the Phi Delta at the quartier mark but were held to two goals during the second quarter while a fighting Phi Delt aggregation poured in nine points to reach the half tied 12 each.

The fourth quarter started with the score tied 25 all but the Sig's setted down to a steady play of and passed the ball around for several minutes waiting for a chance at a set up. The Phi Delta became panky in their attempt to score and attempted numerous long shots, but the Sig's would gain possession of the ball and cooy pass it around waiting for a good scoring opportunity. Through this event, Phi Delta field goals to none for Phi Delta Theta and entered the semifinals. Cave, Kappa Sigma guard, led the scoring with five long spectacular field goals and was followed by his teammate Kcowan who tailed eight points. Theaker each scored six points for Pii Dhea Theta.

Coach Charles McCaffrey, Iowa State, was selected as vice-president. The new officers have planned that the Big Six dual meets shall have a set schedule before the season starts. Also plans are being made to follow Olympic and National inter-collegiate rules for the Big Six teams. Because of the absence by the schools, there will be less arguments on distances and records.

The individual record is to be turned in by the different coaches. In this way and by abiding with the Olympic rules, the Big Six swimmers of fine ability will bid for national recognition in swimming. Few Big Six splashers ever receive this distinction. Women's Intramurals by Lois Wilson. c' The freshmen defeated the senior 43-17, in a class game upset last night. The seniors considered a decision to cripple by the lack of good guards.

BELL-owings by JIM BELL Konson Sports Editor Because of conflict with the date of the education school party, the dates of the intramural swimming meet has again been changed.

We all got rather excited around here last night when Missouri refused to play in the regional play offs for the national basketball title. The question in everyone's mind was, Will Kansas now be considered a state? We were home City today meeting with the committee on the regionals. Many felt that he would be down there trying to get Kansas in the play offs. Last night, "Doe" phoned Horace Mason, director of University sports publicity and told him there wasn't a chance of Kansas' participation. The drawings have already been made. Oklahoma A. & M. will meet and Oklahoma will play the winner. It all rather cut and dried. Five of the Kansas cagemen seem to be getting all of the play in the annual riot of all-conference, all-Big Six and all-everything teams. Lyman Corlis is a unanimous favorite while Ralph Miller and Bobbie Allen are getting their share of listings on second teams. Bruce Vorn and Howard Engleman are getting honorable mentions. The United Press picked Corlis on the first team, Miller on the second and gave Vora an berth on the honorable mentions crew. Subject of much debate in Kansas sporting circles is the fact that Both Gene Kemper (Topeka Capital) and Parke Kirkins (Kansas City Journal) placed Harris of Iowa State on their first strings. Many feel that his team mate, Nicholas, deserved the recognition. It is awfully encouraging to read that 71 men reported to Gwinn Henry the other day for Spring football. We don't want to sound over optimistic or anything like that, but it seems to us that Kansas will wind up next year in the first division . . . and we don't mean last place, either. But then this is the time of year that everyone is predicting that this team will beat the pants off of every other team in the conference next fall . . . maybe it's all the Spring weather that brings out its of this optimism.

By Larry Winn, c'14 With the Texas Relays coming up April 1, the Kansas trick men are now turning their attention to the outdoor meets and Kannas always sends a strong aggregation to Austin. After coping second place in the Big Bash indoor meet, Kansas will be one of the few teams outside outcourt.

Bob Stoland, Big Six indoor high jump champion, will try to live up to his reputation outdoors. Coach Hargiss relates that Stoland is also a fine broad jumper, but that he has not as yet worked out his step.
