Jayhawkers Win Over Washburn
Praille Takes Scoring Honors With Ten Field Goals; The Final Score Is 62-33
Despite frequent use of substitutes, the Jayhawkers last night piled up 62 points to leave Washburn on the small end of a 62-3 score. Pleake took scoring honor over 10 field goals and 1 free throw.
Kansas took the ball on the starting tip-off with Golay jumping, and Prale tried a long shot but missed. However, he scored the initial basket on a set-up from a fast break. Shulties even ended the count of 2 free throws on Golay's foul and Corlis made a charity try to give Kansas the lead once more, 3-2. From that point, Sammaned tie it up again at 3-all, and Corlis grabbed the lead again with a field goal. During the remainder of the game, Washburn was unable to hold the pace and never came into threatening position again.
Both Teams Substitute
NUMBER 70
Successive goals by Prahal, Gola,
Harp, Schmidt, and free throws by
Golay, built the Kansas score to a
17-10 margin at the 10-minute period as *" ... carried the offense for Washburn. Mackey then dropped a fire throw in on Schmidt's kick, but the Huskies held off while Prahal capped a long one, Corliss a fire throw and a tip-in to pull away at 22-11.
With five minutes of the first half to play, both teams started liberal substitutions and Florrell, Kappelman, Ehling, and Johnson went in for Kansas, leaving only Pralle from the starting five. Each team had trouble getting the range and spent most of the five minutes fast-breaking from one end of the court to the other. However, Pralle and Johnson accounted for 6 Kansas points and Shultzes, Sanneman, and Mackey picked up 4 Ichabad points for a 28-15 half-time tally.
Freak Shots Build Score
At the beginning of the second period, Kansas started the five which finished the first half, and Washburn replaced its starting quintet. After Ebling and Johnson raised the Kansas tally to 32-16 in the first two minutes and a half of the second half, Kansas opened up a barrage which Washburn tried to match, and fast breaks and freak shots built the score from 32-18 to 38-20 in a minute and a half.
Sanneman Major Threat
At the 5-minute mark, Kansas put the starting five back in, but they experienced difficulty in getting started until Ebling came in and made a set-up and was seconded by Praile. However, Sanman matched it with 4 points on a set-up and a one-handed shot. From that point, Kansas held Washburn to a few tallies and piled up 62 points before the final whistle, holding Washburn at 33 points.
Sanneman, rangy Washburn center, caused the Jayhawkers their major grief, pilling up 17 points to push Praille for the scoring honors. The Washburn team displayed a somewhat wild type of fast break, taking the ball off the backboard and starting full speed for the opposite end of the court. In many instances this type of ball gave the Jayhawk*

The tournament is open to anyone wishing to participate. All entries should be made by Wednesday noon and handed to Coach Jim Rappor or Kalman for 40, annuity cards. Activity tickets will admit spectators.
Oil Industry Is Discussed
Dean A. McGee Speaks On Petroleum Engineering in Meeting
The present need of additional scholastic training for petroleum geologists was emphasized yesterday by Dean A. McGee, a graduate of the University in 1926, in the first volume of which, which will continue until Jan. 7.
Slides were shown at the close of the talk which demonstrated effectively the fallacy of the popular belief that skulls are drilled down in a straight line.
In his lecture, "The Oil Industry and the Geologist," Mr. McGee didn't also with the recent advances made in exploitation technique and summarized the types of work required of the geologist in the oil industry.
Mr. McGee received his B.S. in mechanical engineering at the University in 1926 and was assistant instructor in geology during the next year, when he also did graduate work in geology.
At present he is vice-president and part owner of the Kerlyn Oil company. He was connected with the Phillips Petroleum company for more than ten years. During the last part of this period he was chief geologist for the company. Mr McGee has done field work for a year in Peru and has been in charge of oil exploration from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, and from the Rocky mountains to the Appalachian mountains when he was in the services of the Phillips Petroleum company.
Mr. McGee's talk this afternoon will deal with "Interesting Features of Oklahoma City and Other Fields," and will begin at 4:30 in room 101 of Haworth hall. Approximately seventy-five students and members of the faculty attended the lecture yesterday.

Roosevelt Issues Warning
Federal Government To Intervee If Capital and Labor Do Not Make Some Reforms
Washington, Jan. 4- (UP)—President Roosevelt waved tonight that labor, as well as capital, must put its house in order and promised that the government will give both an opportunity to make reform follow it intervenes.
At a press conference held 24 hours after he had delivered a message opening the third session of the seventy-fifth Congress, the President criticized certain juridical lapsus in labor on the Pacific coast, and pressed high-pressure salesmanship and unbalanced production in industry.
He cited the case of an automobile salesman who admitted had "oversold" a small communityided by the reports that prices would rise sharply within 12 months. He told of a recent conversation with a prominent unidentified steel manufacturer who had placed orders for a full year's supply of rails in advance because of a threatened price increase.
The result of the carrier's action, the President said, was to aid enforcing a drop in steel production. He said the steel master described the incident "unintelligible." When asked how the government could intervene in such a situation, the chief executive pointed to business-government co-operation under the old NRA.
Under NRA codes, he explained, members of an industry could sit at a table with government, and with accurate statistics, arise at an accurate estimate of national needs in the immediate future of a given product. This would result in a more evenly balanced production, he asserted.
The President said that some industrialists hesitate to participate in such conferences through fear of ant-trust laws. But he told news-paperman that he feels that these gatherings are perfectly legal and that he would propose such a clarification of the laws.
Eccles Blames Soldier Bonus
Washington, Jan. 4.—(UP)—Payment of soldiers' bonus in 1936 was largely responsible for touching off "inflationary psychology" that led to the business slump, Federal Reserve Board Chairman Marriner S. Eccles told a special Senate committee on unemployment today.
The former Utah banker's testimony highlighted the opening day of inquiry which is intended to determine causes of economic maladjustment, the extent of the consequential problem, and possible legislative cures.
Eccles followed other federal officials, all of whom testified that the nation is passing through the sharpest unemployment rise in history and that new relief measures will be necessary.
Bonus Caused Price Distortion
Eccles said that payment of the bonus "threw recovery out of balance" and resulted in price distortion. Satisfactory recovery had been noted in prices, employment, and national income from 1933 to 1936, he said, adding that government and private businesses were borrowing heavily in 1936, and that the bonus amountous increase in "bank patronage."
"Personally," he said, "I think it only accentuated price distortion and brought about a rapid increase in inventories and building. Had it been paid in 1934 I believe it would have tended to compensate for lack of private expenditure."
Questions Use of Gold
Eccles was questioned sharply by committee members on whether the
