AMES LEADS AT HALF
Bishop, Page and O'Leary Score High for K. U.; Roadace, Opponent Star
Iowa State held the advantage during precisely all the first half and was well ahead in scoring, with ten minutes of the second twenty minutes gone. Kansas had a lead of 12 seconds before Iowa hit the ball and began hitting and ran the score up to 24 beaten. Ames team scored again at 24 while Malone made it 24.
Coming back with a rush in the last week, he said that the Jayhawks defended love game 27 to 15 on the Andiotrion court last evening to gain at least a tie for the Big Ten championship.
The contest started out very slowly, each team showing a well organized team on the field. The second secured first on a field goal by Bishop. Thompson tied the score for Iowa State on a field goal several minutes later. Then Bishop tied it up and a minute later Hewk put his team into the lead on a charity toss. He had this advantage until the end.

During the first quarter, the defense was on the defensive team. With only ten minutes of play left in the second half Kansas opened up its offense and counted 15 points before losing.
The defense of each team worked perfectly last night and it was not until the final score that Kansas had solved the Iowans' play sufficiently to record the winning bias.
"Little Jack," Roadace, star Iowa State forward, counted four goals from the field for high point man of the game. Roadace who was played his last game at Iowa State wound up his quest for individual leader of the conference scorer with a 25-point run.
