Mitchell Welcomes Fifth Man Plan
The decision of Big Eight Conference representatives to add a fifth official for football games brought an enthusiastic response from Coach Jack Mitchell this morning.
Mitchell said the step will add to the game. He said such an experiment was tried in the Southwest Conference two years ago with great success. The fifth man will be a back judge.
The Big Eight joins other major conferences in the fifth-man plan. The increased pace of the game has brought on sentiment that more officials are necessary.
"It will result in fewer flags and fewer penalties," said Mitchell. "More field will be covered and the plays will be watched more closely. It should correct some of the mistaken practices that occurred last year."
The adoption of the plan indicates that younger men may be used in officiating games. Some observers feel that the youthful officials will bring more speed and agility in handling the game in an efficient manner.
The action came at a meeting yesterday of faculty representatives at the closing session of the 53rd annual N.C.A.A. convention in Cincinnati.
It was the only league matter voted on and is effective immediately.
Pi Kappa Alpha was hard-pressed to win a 35-33 victory over Triangle in Fraternity A intramural basketball yesterday.

Sparky Stalcup, head basketball coach at Missouri University, will attempt to play a hopped-up version of basketball against the Jayhawkers at Columbia tomorrow night.
"In my happy time I have seen on screen and stage a great number of funny people, some of whom I cherished. Add to the list of those I cherish the name of Cilii Wang. As a pantomimist Miss Wang is superb.

The Tigers, limping along on a six-game losing streak, have been shuffled in hopes of producing more speed and rebounding power. One of their losses came in the Big Eight Tournament when KU beat them 84-73.
This will be Missouri's first home performance in nine games. Stalcup hopes the home court will help to snap the losing streak. This is the longest losing period of Stalcup's 13-year career at Missouri.

Later tournaments will be held in Oklahoma City, Omaha, Lawrence, and Denver. Two more tournaments will be held in Des Moines, the Tall Corn, and the National Championships.
Kevin Jones, coach of the club, said new players are needed. Volleyball experience is not needed for membership. Interested men should report at 1 p.m. Saturday to Jones in Robinson Annex.
Tigers. They are J. C. Leimbach, a 6-foot, 4-inch junior forward, and Richard Pulliam, 6-foot 2-inch sophomore forward.
In addition to the new players, Stalcup will switch Cliff Talley, 6-foot 6-inch junior, from forward to center. Talley replaces Charles Henke.
Other probable starters for Missouri will be Mike Kirksey, 5-foot 10-inch senior, and Joe Scott, 6-foot 3-inch sophomore, both guards. Kirksey, shortest man on the Tiger roster, carries a 9.4 points-a-game average.
The Jayhawkers will rest one day after tomorrow night's encounter with Missouri before again jumping into the middle of the Big Eight conference battle.
Iowa State furnishes the opposition Monday night at Ames.
The Cyclones are one of the more unpredictable teams in the league. They have been hot enough to press Kansas State to the limit before bowing in the final minutes, and yet have had a tough time earning five victories out of 11 starts.
But the record bears out a preseason statement by Cyclone coach Bill Stranigan. He said:
"We'll not be too good in December, but the lessons we learn will make us a tougher club in January."
The Cyclones were involved in three tight games at Kansas City in the conference tournament. They won two and came out on top of the consolation bracket by beating Oklahoma State the final night.
Then came the close game with K-State in the league opener for both teams Monday night and the Cyclones were tough enough to fulfill Stranrigan's prediction.
Sophomores Ted Ecker and Henry Whitney have nailed down the forward spots for the Cyclones after the first month's play. Ecker played well in the tournament and was mostly responsible for the victory over Missouri. Whitney has developed into a top defensive man.
Center John Krocheski, the leading scorer on the team and guards Larry Fie and Fon Baukol round out the starting five.
