EXAMS HALT SOONER PLAY
Kansas Defeat Most Sensational Comeback in Big Six History, Says Coach McDermott
NEXT TILT FEBRUARY 4
Norman, Jan 20—Home for a 19-day rest before playing its next "Big Six" conference basketball game, a single contest against Iowa State at Ames, Feb. 4. Oklahoma's rookie basketball team laid aside knee pads and suction soles for notebooks and coffee and prepared to vanquish a foe even more formidable than Kansas—mid-semester final examinations.
The Oklahoma team made what is probably the most sensational comeback in the history of the "Big Six" loop to defeat Kansas last Wednesday night. Undaunted by its 27-point defeat Tuesday, the Sooners were breaking so fast the second game that when four Sooners would storm the Kansas goal, often there would be but two Jayhawkers to stop them.
Question of Being "Hot"
"It simply a question of each ball club being hot on a different night," explained Coach Hugh McDermott. "Kansas was right the first night and we were cool. We were 'hot' the second night and Kansas was off. If both teams had been hot the same night, it would have been a great ball game."
Connellley's stern guarding of Wells, Nelson's ability to get most of the center jumps, Brownings feat of holding Ebling to 12 points while scoring 15 himself and Oklahoma's ability to bottle 10 of 12 free throws were all factors in the Sooner victory, Sooner players declare.
Monday night Coach McDermott and Doctor Allen meted to Manhattan, Kan. to see Iowa State defeat Kansas State. 29 to 25.
McDermott Praises Cyclones
McMermott Prenses Cyclones
“Although the Cyclones were mlnus Hood, regular guard, they looked much stronger than last year,” the Sooner coached declared, “Jack Cowen is a much improved player while Wegner is much better. Dick Knisha Menzle's team went on a scoring spree just before the first half ended, making 12 points in four minutes to go into a 22-7 lead.”
Fourth Win at Lawrence
The Sooner coach still sees Nebraska and Iowa State as threats. Each plays but 10 conferences games while all the other conference teams play 16. However he still considers Kansas Oklahoma's most dangerous foe of the three.
The Sooner victory the second night marked the fourth time Oklahoma has ever trimmed Kansas at Lawrence. The Sooners won at Lawrence 29 to 12 in 1926, 30 to 21 in 1928 and 7 to 25 in 1929. Counting home victories, Oklahoma has beaten Kansas in basketball 11 times since their first meeting in 1920. However the 50 to 23 shellacking administered by Kansas Tuesday night is the record score of the lifetime series, surpassing even the 45 to 19 thumping given the Jays by the all victorious Sooners of 1928.
Reptile Rumors Rouse Russell Rural Rustic
(Continued From Page One)
snake had escaped into a nearby thicket.
Two weeks later Alva Evans, another farmer saw the snake near the same cows before he visited the later Mrs. John Conaway, while going through the pasture after the cows saw the snake again. It was coiled, she said, with its large fan shaped head extended. It seemed angry. It would wive its head in the air a few seconds and then bounce upon the ground. She went for help, but the snake was gone when she returned.
Twice searching parties have been organized, but no trace of the snake has ever been found on these trips.
Tex Clark Interested
The stories of the snake have attracted several representatives from the agricultural college at Manhattan Men with motion picture cameras have combed the territory in hopes of getting pictures of the reptile.
Attempts have been made to get Tex Clark, manager of the Swipe Park zoo in Kansas City, to make a search for the big snake. It is said that he is interested, and if the snake exists he would like to have it for the zoo. The general public knows that it is one that escaped from some circus years ago. There is no native snake of Kansas which remotely resembles the Luray monster.
The good people of Russell county swear to the existence of this reptile. No one has ever offered an explanation to disprove its existence as in the case of the Loch Ness monster. Perhaps the snake is a holdover from the time that Paul Bunyan with his famous story of a giant crocodile in the hills of Kansas and dragged the hills down with Babe the big blue ox and left the plains as we now know them.
Undoubtedly the snake exists, for who can impeach the testimony of the people who have actually seen it.
Delta Upsilon Maintains Leadership in Division III
Phi Gam's 'B' Team Meets First Defeat From Jayhawks 'B'
Delta Upsilon stepped out in grand style yesterday morning to take the Phi Delta Theta basketball crew, 1934 champions, with a score of 15-12. The DU's remain undefended in Division III after three encounters. Tight defense kept the scores of both teams down.
Eight o'clock in the morning was too early for the Phi Gamma Delta "B" squad who got their first defeat at the hands of the Jayhawk second team. Though leading at the half, the Fijis dropped back as the Jayhawks dropped in five more buckets to win 25-20.
The A.T.O.'s were able to score a 25-23 margin over the Sigma Sha in a Friday afternoon game. The race in Division I grew more tense as the Independents kept going with a win over the Ramsblers, and the Tramps broke the second half to knock the Rock Chalk out of a second place tie with themselves.
