★ Conference Cagers Barely Break In Eggs Against Non-League Quintets Last Week; Huskers and K-State Win As Iowa State Splits Series a nd Kansas Loses, Sooners Favored
By Jay Simon, c'uncl
The Big Six conference, which usually is as efficient at juggling a basketball at Einstein is at juggling numbers, hasn't looked too impressive in non-league engagements so far, but this week all six members swing into action on an 11-game docket that should throw a little more light on the "who's got what" question.
Kansas, the loop's defending champ, was shown little re-

Kansas, the loop's spect at its weekend party in homa A. and M. club won 21 to 15 and 25 to 19 in a pair of defensive battles that saw the Aggies pull out in the closing minutes both nights.
Iowa State added no prestige to the conference in breaking even with two of the smaller colleges of Iowa. The Cyclones downed Cornell 35 to 25 early in the week, and then dropped their Saturday night attraction to Iowa Teachers of Cedar Falls, 38 to 29.
Huskers Take Opener
Kansas State and Nebraska at least had fun. The Wildcats romped over little Doyle college 56 to 36 and the Huskers had little trouble in bumper North Dakota, 44 to 30. It was Nebraska's open game of the season. K-State had previously dropped a close one to Southwestern.
Oklahoma and Missouri have been holding their quintets under cover so far, but once they start it will be a job keeping them out of

the spotlight, Dr. F. C. Allen looks for the Sooners and Tigers to fight it out for the title unless he can maneuver a "Prille" to spark his Jay-hawks.
Even if the Kansas mentor finds his missing sparkle, Oklahoma will be hard to stop. Four of the starting "Boy Scouts" are back and for his fifth, Coach Bruce Drake has a 6 foot 4 head, who last year, went through the Cincinnati junior college like the Colorado fire.

The Hellhounds, who last Saturday turned back the Buckes 69 to 11, continued their winning streak night when they rounded the 1222 Club 38 to Club 38.
Both teams battled on even grounds during the first half with Mississippi maintaining a slight lead at halftime. Taylor furnished the spark for the Hellhounds in the latter periods by scoring four baskets from the field to bring his total contribution of the evening to eleven points. Sheldon was high scorer for Mississippi with eight points.
Kansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas State open two-night stands Friday and finish them up the next evening by the other half of the league.

UNDER the WIRE By MILT MEIER
If anyone is looking for alibis as t why Kansas lost two games in row to Oklahoma A. and M, he will be badly disappointed . . . alibis from the team and "Phog" are as scarce as inches in a penny bank. . . "Just wait until we play them here, Feb. S," the retort to all queries. . . the new, laceless and seamless rubber ball that was used in those two games mighta seemed sort of strange to the boys at that, tho . . .
An INS sports release says that Dr. Cunningham's record indoor milke is going to get a good working on this winter in Madison Square Garden. If some of those foreign runners' running is as potent as that of the champions, I agree that 4.044 record is to stand for stand three time. I Betha-
Not satisfied with winning the Big Ten football championship, the Minnesota Gophers are going to make a strong bid for the basketball title too . . . if they annex it, it will be the most important team them . . . Wisconsin is expected to offer some stiff opposition to the Gophers . . . incidentally, the Badgers drew 98 000 fans to an 11-game home schedule last year although
JEWELRY--they weren't title contenders . . .
Four of the championship Sooners have been made offers to play pro football . . . Waddy Young, all-American end, thinks he will decline the offer and try for a position on the Olympic wrestling team . . . "A boyhood ambition," he says . . . The Sooners and Iowa State Cyclones both had four men on the all-Big Six team. They were also editors . . . Ferrell Anderson was the lone Jayhawk to make it . . .
Dr. Alien predicts that the Sooners will win three major sports titles in the Big Six this year . . . Oklahoma having already won the football crown, will win the basketball and baseball titles also, according to "PhoR" . . . he may be two-time Kansas champion shows Kansas in there successfully defending the basketball championship . . . the "flash" of the day says don't sell the Jayhawks short yet. Al Wellhausen, former Jayhawk basketball star, will play with the basketball class, will play with the City season . . . at a guard position for Parks will be Bill Martin, the senior on Oklahoma's "Boy Scout" team. This year's following will act and feel side by side

side? . . . down at Soonerland, they still haven't forgiven Wellhausen for tipping Oklahoma basket-bounce shots off their course. . .
Barbara Owen, c'40, who underwent an abdominal operation at the University of Kansas hospital in Kansas City, was reported as being in a satisfactory condition yesterday morning.
Notes of the Aggie games: The double defeat was Kanan's first since Missouri turned the trick in 1835 . . . Bob Allen and Bruce Vorn played bang-up games for the Jayhawkers. Engleman needs polish on defense and undoubtedly will have it before long . . . "Harp for all-American" movement hit a smug , "Deadeye Dick" had a little trouble finding the basket . . . besides not being able to hit the hoop from the floor, the Jayhawkers had trouble making their free throws . . . Drake and Brine of Sooners were in the stands scouting the two teams . . . Add similes: As plentiful as returning letterment at Oklahoma in 1939 . . . only 26 Sooners, with their "O" monograms will return for the "I" football wars . . .
