Notes on High School Tourney
Ru Allan Morrison *26*
By Allen Merriam, c'36
Kansas high schools climaxed a great basketball season with the greatest tournament ever staged by the K.S. H.S.A.A. in the Topeka high school gym last weekend. E.A. Thomas, secretary of the Association, was largely responsible for the success of the tournment and was able assisted by the staff of the current office of excellence of the 16 teams, and thousands of followers of the game who passed by the ticket office during the three-day session.
Chanute's "wonder" team captured the support of the crowd in the first game . . . The fans cheered wildly for the southeast Kansas队 throughout the tournament and, from all appearances, was unanimously satisfied when the Chanute boys ran away from the scrapy and rangy Winfield队 in the final game . . . For well-played and thrilling basketball, the Chanute-Arkansas team . . . Noten - Winfield were the class of the tournament . . . Lawrence High School gave Newton a mighty bounce in the second round, tying the score on the Railroaders several times although unable to take a lead.
Ralph Miller, the 15-year-old sensation on the championship team, is indeed the best high school cage star tall and weighs about 100 pounds . . . Young Miller stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds . . . has two more years of high school and is also a football and truck star of the country. He was a back of relaxation during competition which he has mastered to a degree remarkable in a high school athlete . . . His father being a K.U. athlete of some time back, Miller is a likely prospect for Phog Allen in three or four years.
Dr. Allen was an interested spectator in the south balcony at Friday's Newton - Lawrence battle . . . Young Bob Allen, who has played a reserve guard for the Lions this season, was put in for practically the whole game and recorded six points besides turning in a kanee football game . . . Bob is only a rhinestone and has two more years at L.M.H.S. . . . Phoel didn't have his customary milk bottle of water at the tournament, but he worked mighty hard on some chewing gum . . . and bid moved down to the front row by the time Miller went into action in the A.C. Challenge context . . . Plenty of players over the past athletes for potential college material and plenty of alumni will be looking on the stars this summer and speaking of jobs and things . . . Captain Kline of the Hutchinson Salthaws, who won third place in the tournament, has a brother, Bill Kline, in the School of Business . . . The K. U. Kline played with the Jayhawk "B" intramural champions this winter and was selected as center on the all-intramural "B" quintet.

SPORT SHOTS
By Robert G. Patt, c'35
The variancy tennis squad, which is practicing every afternoon in the gymnasium, looks mighty good and should be in the running this year. Leading champ and holder of the Colorado Springs city title, who should have little trouble in repeating this year. Two other lettermen are back, Kenneth Kell and Delmar Curry. Jack Silverwood is the only member of last year's second team team who did not return to school this year. Others who are trying out are Bob Oyler, Allan Lisdani, Bob Steelc, Beryl Kernel, Allen Merriam, Phil Brighton, and John Clements.
The tennis schedule this year calls for a couple of pre-season meetings inside with Washburn. The outdoor campaign starts here with a dual against Nebraska, April 12, and culminates in the Big Six Tennis Tournament in Lincoln, May 17-18.
Hugh McDermott, basketball coach at Sonnerville, wasn't so successful in the Big Six conference race this year, but he's certainly been leaming the last few days. He has become the father of a five-and-a-half-pound baby girl.

In comes a K man to register a complaint against the regulation that barks letterman from competing in intramural sports. The rule is that after a man has received a letter in any varsity sport he cannot participate in intramurals. "I think it's a silly rule," says K man. "Shoot, it would be good training for us, and besides we like to play just as much as anybody.
"Not only that, but I want to play playground ball," he concluded as he walked off.
"Oklahoma A. and M won the National A.A.U. wrestling meet held at Bethlehem, Penn," was about all that the United Press offered to the Daily Kansan about the mat class that the United Press brought to end. Tiny Moore entered the heavyweight class and George Noland, the 155-pound class.
