Kansas Continues Consecutive Wins With Aggie Scalp
Game
Allen's Men Annex Third Big Six Battle, 29-26, in Hard Fought
Bv Carl Cooner
The University basketball team continued its march toward the Big Six championship by defeating the game at Manhattan last night. It was the third straight conference win for the Jayhawkers and it entailed a game at the University of Missouri which has chalked up four consecutive victories. A goal by Tom Bischagli in the first quarter, led to a ruthless match caged by Auber of the Aigues. Then with the score tied, Jim Bausch in leaping for a tip felt and hurt his right hip. After he drove him from the game, From then on the Kansas offense and defense suffered. After Bausch's removal, Page jumped into the game with a sensual goal to tie it up again. At this point Richardson, starting Aiger guard, entered the court. The team pushed the Manhattan crew into an 8 to 5 lead. Thompson unleashed an arrow from under the basket to give the Jayhawkers a substantial margin, only to have Nigro and Richardson knock out two players in minutes of the first period found the lead changing back and forth with the teams deadlocked much of the
Thomson's Goal Wins
The second half was similar to the initial period, neither team holding a commanding lead and the ball being passed from one man to another freekick. The second half was subtracted that spied victory for the dayhawkers in the last five minutes of play. Captain Richardson subtracted this goal of Thomson's by one but Bishop added two charity goals; the game was over soon afterward.
Sometime since Jan. 17, Coach Allen's men have lost the knack of making free throws; consequently they made only 21 per cent. of their attempt or three of 14 tries. This inability to make flashes, tosses into, was almost fatal.
For the Agnies, Auker and Richardson, the two purple guards, played a fine defensive game and accounted for 15 of the loser's 26 points. Richardson alone made four field goals and three free throws, drew much admiration from the crowd by his smooth floor play.
Cay and Richon Star
Cox and Bishop worked like Trojans for the Jayhawkers and Cox connected with three long baskets that were used to score points. The man for both teams with five field goals and three free throw inserts scored the game, and player to score from the free throw line. Thomson was a potent offensive threat especially in the first half.
Governor Clyde Reed was present and spoke over the radio between halves. His entrance before the start of the game was the signal for the fans to stand and cheer. Gov. James's youngest son also saw the tilt.
