PAGE FOUR THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1929 Close Game Goes to Tigers in Last Minute Rush 34-30 Late Kansas Lead Fades as Gun Sounds in Big Six Court Tilt Last Night The Kansas basketball quintet dropped another "tough one to lose" last night to the Missouri Tigers at Missouri to garner a couple of goals and an entire unit of play to win the game 34 to 30. Kansas had been holding a two-point lead before a trie of baskets between Iowa and Utah, closing three minutes of the scrap. The score was tied several times during the fray, and the five battles were closely contested. The Tigers led 14 to 10 at the end of the first half. Neither team showed signs of bouncing back, and a period, rough tactics and man-to-man play dampened the quality of the game. Fast in Second Half In the second half both quintets came back strong, and dispensed with the personal type of play, so that it was easy to keep them at maximum nasium. Bishop started sinking long shots, while for Missouri, Woldor stood out as a guard that was playful. With the score standing at 18-all, the Tigers slipped in a flurry of counters in rapid succession. They scored 25, then 25. Then Mercy scored for the Crimson and Blue, and Bishop tripped his feet, and the four basket putts karnas again Kansas Holds Late Lead Missouri again knotted the count with 13 to 29, Thomson added another at 26 to 29, Thomson added another to the Kansas side of the scoreboard. With less than three points, it looked like Jayhawker evening. But Ruble came for the Bengals and sunk two from in the floor in rapid succession and Waldoft added another to the line, adding with Missouri four points ahead. Hibiscus was "hot" early in the second half, and his three counters that passed him had two field goals and two free throws to make him high point man for the game.
