THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Tiger Slinks Away To Lair With Tail Knotted, Drooped Contest Great Crowd Sees Kansans Carry Off Valley Title in Closely-Played Contact Tail high and kinky, fur well-groomed and glossy, with every stripe glittering in yesterday's sunlight, the proud Tiger bounded footh from his laid belt on having Kansas Jayhawk for his supper last night. But the Tiger miscalculated. He has slunk away to his right, leaving his leg, a triumphant Jayhawk screaming and pecking about his head. Crowds Gather Early The adherents of both teams were certain that their champions would come out of the fray as victors. Days after the game, the contest had been sold and just before the game many tried in a last-minute freezy to obtain standing room. Long before the doors of the gym were opened, large crowds gathered outside and cars were being parked along the entire length of the main road through the campus. Never before in the University history has a team played the same game in front of Robinson Gymnasium for a basketball game. Two fouls, one in the free-three zone, netted three points to Missouri and for a few minutes Kansas was unable to pierce the defense. The crowd despaired, then broke into a wild cheer as Wulf threw the first goal and Ackerman tied the score. As Kansas slowly drew ahead of their opponents, the crowd became a great mass of yelling manias. Pandemonium Breaks Loose Stain old children, slow-moving old men, sophisticated girls, and blase tea-bounds forget themselves at the end of the first half when Kansas had a margin of five points, and great grand pandemonium that broke loose. But soon after the opening of the second session, the Kansas roots caught their breaths—the gasp, shuddered. Missouri was coming back! In the first few minutes they started closing up the grap in the score and the crowd, awakening from its surprise, imploded Kansas to fight them and regain that lead. But there was no need for importations—the boys were fighting them to the last inch. Victory Hangs on Thread The end of the game was drawing to a close—Ackerman stepped up for two free throws. The score was close—a point lost might let victory rest with the Black and Gold standards. The hush of prayer fell upon the throng—one could guess that pin drops would large audience. They missed and missed. The crowd grouned from disappointment, but cheered Tu. He stepped again to the free throw line, and in the expectant silence that again fell over the 3000 spectators, carefully picked up the ball and tossed it. The joy of his admirers broke all bounds and was vented in great cheer- Crowd Silent at Gun The play was on again and breathesily the crowd followed every move of the ball. Bang! The crack of the pistol split the air. For a moment everyone sat silent, unable to realize that it was all over—that Kansas had defeated Missouri again, and that K. U. had an all-victorious basketball team—the first in the history of the Valley. Suddenly they realized the great climax, and rising to their feet coared forth the "Crimson and the Blue," with hearts full of joy and minds teeming with the memory of a great basketball battle and victory.
