The score was tied, 10 to 10, at the end of the first half. The game was marked by ragged play on the part of both teams, and the Jayhawkers were far from the form expected of them. Don Ebling, who was on the starting lineup for Kansas, displayed more form than other members on the team and made 3 field goals. Eling opened the scoring in the game when he made a goal from under the basket, and Pralie made good on a short shot to put the Jay-hawkers ahead, 4 to 0. Morningside started whittling away at the Kansas lead by scoring on free throws by Olsen and Michaelson. Then a field goal by Michaelson tied the score at 4 all. Score Remains Close Kansas started substituting, Reid, Golay, and Johnson replacing Schmidt, Ebling, and Harp. Pralle put the Jahyaves back into the lead with a free throw, and the team shot a long shot that put the Iowa team in front, 6 to 5. The lead changed again when Coris threw one in from beneath the basket, and Kansas was again ahead, 6 to 7. Pralle scored a goal for Kansas and M. Krau1 one Morningside to make the throw followed by Krau1's field goal tied the score again and the half ended 10 all. The Jayhawkers opened the second half with a score spree that saw Florell, Pralle, and Golay make successive field goals. Michaelson and Olsen raised Morningside hopes by sinking a couple of field goals, but all aspirations of the Iowans were dimmed when Ezekiel through the basket, and Schmidt one, making them 23 to 14. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1937 Sing Between Halves Morningside had started another rally when the game ended as Michieelson made one goal and Olsen two.

Part of Loot Recovered has robbed students of clothing and valuables totaling more than $2500. The pair waived extradition and were brought to Lawrence last evening by Sheriff Fred Vogler and Officer Dowers. Ray Redfern and his wife, Thelma Redfern, of Kansas City, Mo., were arrested in Kansas City Tuesday evening by Chief of Police Jude Anderson, of Lawrence, and members of the detective squad of the Kansas City police. Several suits and other articles believed to be part of the Lawrence loot were recovered at the time of city arrests, Chief Anderson said. Manhattan authorities were in Lawrence yesterday and identified suits and jewelry as those stolen from the K.S.C. fraternities. The remainder of the goods recovered in Kansas City will be available for identification by local police today at peak headquarters. Pawn tickets found in the possession of Redfern may lead to the ultimate recovery of practically all the stolen articles, Anderson said. Student's Tip Aids Officers The arrest of Mills and Mays by Officers Turner, Moore and Hubbell came when an unidentified student reported a car suspiciously parked on Indiana street between the Theta house and the corner of Twelfth. The three men are ex-convicts, officers said. Redfern told Chief Anderson that he and Mills robbed two fraternities at Kansas State of clothing and jewelry on Saturday, Nov. 27, during the Nebraska-Kansas State game, and admitted participation in the raids on fraternities and rooming houses here. The Kansas City arrest climaxed a week of investigation by police of Lawrence, Topka, and Kansas City the Kansas State robberies. While en route to Kansas City following their looting of the Manhattan fraternities, Redfern and Mills overturned their car on highway 40, nine miles east of Topeka. They stopped a passing truck and prevailed upon the driver to carry them, with their loot, to Kansas City. He drove them to an apartment on West Thirteenth street, where they unloaded the stolen articles. Three Are Drug Addicts The driver later reported the incident to Topeka police, who notified Chief Anderson. When Anderson and Kansas City police officers inquired at the address supplied by the truck driver, they learned the pair had moved. They took to an apartment at 1015 Washington街, where the arrests were made. Three of the four persons are narcotic addicts, and were using the stolen goods to purchase drugs, Chief Anderson said. Mays, who accused him of intimidating the users in the thefts, shores did not use narcotics. Articles which the group could not sell were traded for morphine, the chief said. A fountain pen, identified as part of the Manhattan font, was rumor is sarcose podder who was arrested in the Residence apartment. Redfern and his wife were brought to Lawrence on charges listed in a complaint signed by Tony Immel, 3rd l, one of four students in the class of clothing and jewelry in the raid on the Moody apartments Nov. 16.
