MANY PROMINENT SCIENTISTS WERE TRAINED IN OLD SNOW
Memories of prominent persons who received their education in Old Snow hall have been recalled since the tearing down of this building. Prof. W.J. Armstrong of the zoology department, related some of the interesting facts recently.
Prof. Baumgartner Recalls List of Noted Persons Who Were Educated in the Historic Building; It Is Estimated That 250 Have Been Outstanding
The story is told of Dr. Francis Hunting Snow, in whose honor the hall was named, who came to the University when the Kansas prairies were without science. Though educated for the ministry, Dr. Snow served as professor of natural science and mathematics. Of the 29 departments now listed in the College catalog, 15 came from Snow's original "settee" of the subjects which he taught. He started the museum, the weather reports, and trained a large number of students who have become outstanding scientists.
An important discovery which took place in old Snow Hall was made by Dr. C. E. McClung, '96, when he found the sex chromosomes. This has led to more research than anything else from the University of Kansas, Mr. McClung is now head of the zoology department at the University of Pennsylvania.

Jayhawkers Stop Sooners to Finish Non-titular Games
Victory Leaves Kansas Undefeated in Exhibition Play; Big Six Contest Tonight
FINAL NON-CONFERENCE STANDING
Defeting the University of Oklahoma Sooners for the third straight time this year, the University of Kansas basketball team won its seventh non-conference game of the season in Norman last night 33 to 26. The game, the last for the Kansans this season, left them undefended in non-titular play. The teams played well, but they may that play an important part in deciding whether Kansas will have to share its fourth successive Big Six title with Missouri or Oklahoma.
Gordon Gray, Jayhawker guard who was absent from the lineup for a few games at the beginning of the new semester and who returned to play only last week, led the scorers with 11 points made on four field goals and three free throws, while guards on both teams were attempting to stop the goal-shooting ravages of Ebling and Bross, Kansas and Oklahoma forwards, respectively.
Biggest Score Against Kansas
Elling scored eight points to take second honors, while Bress was held to five points. Harrington made seven points and Wells and Main of Oklahoma six each. It was the second time since the Big Six conference season began that Elling had failed to be high scorer. He was held to a minimum of points in Lincoln's and the Cornhuskers handed the Jayhawkers a 24 to 21 beating on Jan. 9. Oklahoma's 26 points represented the greatest total scored against the Jayhawkers in a single game this season. The opponent was a win with high total and the 12 low limit. In the non-conference final standings Kansas heads the list, undefeated; opponents have scored on the average 18 points per game.
Kansas Takes Early Lead
The Sooners took advantage of Munson's tip at center last night, scoring two more goals than the Jayhawks, but their fouls were costly. Kansas scored 13 of 16 free throws awarded them on 11 fouls by the Sooners. Oklahoma made two of seven attempts.
It was Kansas' game from the start as far as scoring was concerned. The Jaw-hawks took an early lead on shots by Eling and Gray, and had scored 6 points before the Sooners counted. Kansas led 7 to 10 at the half.
Retaining their lead throughout the last half they were, nevertheless, extended in the last six minutes. Browning's entrance into the Oklahoma lineup was a signal for a scoring attack, and the Kansas hawks' hawks clicked again; however, and were ahead seven points as Browning left the game.

Ames, Mar. 2—Winning their second Big Six victory of the season and their first one by a decisive margin, the Iowa State eagles swamped Kansas State College 37 to 16 in the last game of the season for both teams last night.

The team had won only one other game, a 40-to-38 decision over the second place Oklahoma Sooners.
Iowa State piled up an early lead and was ahead 20 to 7 at the half. The second half was little more successful for the Wildcats, who held the Cyclones to 17 points while they were collecting only nine.
