Battle Tigers For Cage Title Select Italian Pope On Third Ballot All Eyes Turned Toward Columbia
Cardinal Pacelli Ascends Throne Of St. Peters
★ Assumes名 of Pope Pius XII; Was Secretary Of State Under Late Pontiff. Pius XI
Vatican City, March 2—(UP)—Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli, wife of state under Pius XI, was elected 262nd pope today and immediately ascended the century-old throne of St. Peter as Pope Pius VII.
With that ceremony he became head of the Roman Church, Vicar of Christ, and spiritual father of 332 students at his first birthday of the world on his own 63rd birthday.
The frail, scholarly pope then appeared in his robes of state on the central balcony of the Vatican and gave his first blessing to the world. The crowds in the square below cheered wildly.
The pope stayed on the balcony only briefly. The college of cardinals and high prelates returned to the sineline chapel for the second rite of the day, the ceremony of paying their homage to the new pope.
In assuming the name of Pius XII the pope wished to honor the memory of the late pontiff, who in numberous documents and public speeches referred to his secretary of state as "beloved our son." Cardinal Pacelli, highest sources said, obviously was elected after only three ballots, two in the morning which black smoke from the chimney indicated were negative and one in the afternoon, announced by white smoke.
The only other known case in the history of the church that a pope has been elected on three ballots was Leo XIII.

To a couple of Gamma Phi's goe the Schiller Shore award for a culinary discovery which they claim would delight the heart of any apiculture. As you may have heard Gamma Phi's don't permit a candy store in the house because sweet aren't conducive to trim figures. But that doesn't keep them from getting hungry and thereby hangs a tale.
Jeanne Wilkins and Lucille (Powerhouse) McVey were troubled with an appetite for popcorn. They rummaged around until they found a rusty old popper, and a little more looking netted them some corn. Being resourceful creatures, they did not let a little thing like no lard or butter stop them they used cold cream. (Terrible after-thought: Could it be that they seasoned the concoction with bath salts?)

Snow, Slush Fails to Dampen Interest in Kansan Contest
With this afternoon's paper, the first week's competition in the University Daily Kansas - Lawrence Merchants' $700 Awards contest with a $200 Berry tour to the New York World's Fair and two year's passes to the Granada theatre as grand prizes-is well under way.
Inclemnet weather has prevented many students from making the trips down town to receive the signatures of merchants. However, in the nature of the contest, the student who enters his papers for the week Friday or Saturday has an equal opportunity to win with the entrant who already has many of his ad-blanks stamped.
To be eligible for the grand prizes to be awarded to the entrants with the highest total of votes for the eight-weeks period of the contest, students should enter the contest while there is yet time during this
Walsh May Fight Own A.F. of L. Bill
- Tells Protesting Group He Will Give Opposition If Necessary
Washington, March 1.—(UP) Senator David L. Walsh, D.-Mass., who introduced the A. F. of L. amendment to the Wagner Law Act in the senate, told a protesting group today that he himself will fight the proposal if he becomes convinced that it is injurious to labor.
He made this statement as President William Green of the A. F. of L. appointed Thomas A. Rickert, A. F. of L. vice-president, and head of the United Garment Workers Union to replace Daniel J. Tobin, Teamster Union president, who declined to serve on the three-man labor peace committee that will negotiate with the CIO.
Walsh received a delegation of the C.I.O. Uniform Shoe Workers Union. The C.I.O. opposes the proposed A.F. of L. amendment.

"It isn't to our credit that we have been doing things here in America—it is just that we can't help doing things," Dr. Clarence A. Mills, professor of experimental medicine at the University of Cincinnati, told his audience in Frazer theater yesterday afternoon in a public address entitled "The Influence of Climate and Weather on Man."
Dr. Mills explained that man is a machine and wears out like a machine. The human body is little more efficient than the steam engine but not as efficient as the Diesel. Man is 25 per cent efficient as compared to 37 per cent for Diesel engines.
As individuals men are not independent but instead quite dependent upon their environment. "The area of North America is the most stimulating climate I have been able to find," he said. In explaining further Dr. Mills believes during hot weather we have less energy, activities in our health rate decline, a slower growth alive and a lower level mentality—and physically. Tropical man in comparison to white man is smaller, matures later, lives at a lower level and does less work.

The list of candidates, in which sorority women predominate, was announced at the W.S.G.A. meeting Tuesday night.

Basile's Band Named Fourth Best By Magazines
Count Bassi's band, scheduled to play the Junior From Friday evening from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m., was recently judged the fourth best band in the country by the two outstanding singers, Downbeat and Metronome.
The band, practically unknown until two years ago, was classed with Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, and Bob Crosby by both trade journals. Tommy Dorsey was selected as the fifth ranking band.
Bassie's organization is believed by many musicians to have the strongest rhythm of any band now playing, either white or colored. He is a known for his style, which feathery and smooth with smoothness rather than loudness.
James Rushing, featured vocalist with Count Basie's band.
Advance ticket sales for the From the only formal class party of the year, have been encouraging. Student support of this party will largely determine whether other well-known bands will be brought to the University during the remainder of the year.
British Freighter In Rescue Role
★ Ship Works Against Heavy Odds in a Pitching Sea to Save 150 Men
St. John, March 2—(UP) —The crew of the British freighter. Newfoundland, worked against heavy odds in a pitching sea today to rescue 160 men from the seaker Atlantic, 160 miles south of St. John.
The New Foundland, responding to an SOS call sent at 129 a.m. reached the side of the Ranger at 5 a.m. eastern time, but found the ocean too rough to permit launching of life boats.
The attempt was made at 8:30 a.m. but by 10 o'clock only a few men had been transferred from the disabled vessel. While crew members toled unscarcely to bail out him, he managed its deck, nullifying their labor.
The New Fountland abandoned, the attempt to effect a rescue by lifeboat and succeeded in getting hawaters aboard the half-submerged hull, hoping to tow the Ranger t smoothers waters before undertaking to take off the remainder of the crew.
Flu Epidemic Still Ragging With Six New Cases Today

The hospital is not filled, as it has a capacity of 62 beds. There are no pneumonia cases now, since J. W Fry was dismissed today. This is the worst epidemic of influenza on this campus for two years.
Twenty is the average number of patients to be confined, so today's number is almost double this. The most patients to be admitted in one day was 13. There is no danger of the epidemic getting bad enough to dismiss classes, according to Doctor Canuteson.
\* Winner of Tonight's Game Is Assured of at Least a Tie for Big Six Court Championship; Missouri Fans Are Confident of Victory; A Sell-Out Crowd Will Attend
Tonight for the one-hundreth
The eyes of Kansas are upon You tonight, You Jayhawker basketball team. You have five tried and true men hold in your hands the hope for a continuance of the Kansas basketball dynasty. Tonight throughout the nation whereever Jayhawker enthusiasts gather they will raise their hands to You in mute appear to win for them another Big Six title and in so doing score another victory over their ancient rivals, the Missouri Tigers.
time Kansas and Missouri will pit their basketball teams against each other. The prize for the winner tonight will be the Big Six 1939 court crown, or a portion of it. This game will end the season's play for these two teams. Complications arise because Oklahoma will still have two players, and if they both hold off them they will share the title with tonight's winner, while a loss will eliminate them from a share of the title.
By Clavelle Holden, c'40
Records show that in this long rivalry, the most intense if not the oldest in the conference, that Kanu was the number of victories, 62 to 39
Another interesting fact the statistician points out is that 27 of these games have been decided by four points or less, a fact probably accounting for the "beat-up" condition of the dope bucket. The Tigers captured the first contest 34-31. The Rangers won the second game later to the tune of 21-20. The two schools have met continuously since 1907.
Doctor Allen, announced yesterday before he left that his starting line-up would probably include Eller, Billing, Eleni, Harp, and Corla.
In announcing that he would probably start Don Ebling Allen added that he intended to use Engleman considerably but he wanted as many vettrans in the starting line-up as possible.
Another factor the Kansas coach considered in picking Eblin to start is that he is a faster man than Engleman. It is the Kansas tutor's hope that Eblin will wear the Tiger jersey when he plays against blonde sophomore flash who, teamed with Miller make a scoring combination that is hard to stop.
Bruce Voran will also enter the fray at a forward post in the event the first team men fail to click them a "dead shot" with his left hand.
In two starting sophomores, Miller and Allen, Kansas has two men who are the main cogs in the offensive machine. Both will be making their initial appearance on the Missouri court. Miller might be considered the question mark, not because of his playing but because of his excessive fouling. While a clean player the sophomore ace has considerable success in the knees. This failure to maneuver quickly has caused Miller to commit numerous fouls. He left the last two games via the four-foul route.
Coach George Edward's has just as determined a bunch of boys who believe they have the medicine to make the Jayhawkers want to forget their championship flight. The Tigers have surprised a lot of people this year with their high type of play and rule as favorites in tonight's fray. Haskell Thon, towering Missouri stands, threatens to the Jayhawkers defense of the title. In their previous meeting here he bagged five field goals and three charity tosses, and the local fans pulling their hair out in despair as he made his personal attempt to defeat Kansas.
Another boy that will play an important part in tonight's battle is Captain John Lobsiger. This has considered as "tops" in the league where defensive tactics are concerned. In a recent game with K-4 teams, Harvey, Cooper and Halstead will probably be assigned to guard Miller.
Harvey, Cooper, and Halstead will round out the Tiger starting five. Cooper is a member of that famous family that has supplied plenty of

Look for Victory
By Milt Meier Kansan Sports Editor
Columbia, Mo., March 2—The natives were enthusiastic this morning. They were willing to bet that their Tigers would defeat Kansas by six points this evening. And so strong did they believe it that they were offering two to one odds. Bruce Vosan was suffering from a "Charley horse" he received in practice yesterday and there was some doubt as to whether he would be able to play tonight.
Doctor Allen announced that Kansas would use a fast break at the start of tonight's game in hope of securing a victory. But before he inserts Engleman and Voran,
A Threat to Tigers---
HOWARD ENGLEMAN
Against. Oklahoma, Engleman broke the old Kansas scoring record by tossing in 27 points. Missouri will be out to see that he doesn't get hot tonight.
Like his famous brothers his favorite shot is a two handed jump shot.
In reserve strength the Tigers are also well fortified. Blaine Currance with his 6 fect 5 inch frame will probably see some action from a center or forward post. Keireys has played about as much at a forward position as either of the starters and will enter the fray if the Tiger offence fails to click. The Tiger goal sentnished earned an 'A' for most reputations, and they have played almost all of the Missouri games. Edwards will rely on Bill Nash if either of his first team guards fail him.
But regardless of our ideas the Tigers and Jayhawker warriors assembled in Vahalla when it told of tonight's game will probably sit back, yawn, and philosophize "the first 99 games were the toughest."

Kansas Pos. Missouri
