Frosh Post Fair 1-3 Mark
Page 9
A four game schedule was plenty long enough for the Kansas freshman basketball squad as they compiled a disappointing 1-3 record.
JAY ROBERTS was the squad's high scorer as he compiled a 16.75 average over the four game span. Roberts, a 6-4 forward from Des Moines, Iowa, hit his high in the last game with 22 points. Following him in season averages were: Harry Gibson with a 10.75; Buddy Vance, 9.5; Dave Stinson and Derrill Gwinner, 9.0; Dick Baker, 7.0; Gene Shofner, 4.0.

A week later in the return engagement at Allen Field House, the Hawks closed their season by bowing gracefully, 67-55, to K-State.
The freshmen lost their first two games to Parsons, last year's national junior college champions, 75-72, and the Missouri freshmen, 59-56 in overtime. On Feb. 15, the young Hawks traveled to Manhattan, winless by a small margin of six points, to meet arch-rival Kansas State's frosh.
Manhattan was the KU frosh's only bright spot. The Hawks came back from a four point halftime deficit to defeat the young Cats, 81-69. That night, five of the KU frosh scored in double figures.
In review, Coach Ted Owens said that although the squad had a losing record, the season can be termed successful by the progress that the boys made. Although win-
ring games is important, the main emphasis in freshman basketball is developing players for the varsity squad.
Hampering the junior Jays in their four games was the lack of speed and agility. The frosh, averaging 6-4, were taller than any team they played but found difficulty trying to run with, and defense smaller, faster opponents.
THE HAWKS suffered a big blow at semester break when they lost
Hawks in Play-Offs With 7 Games Left
The Chicago Black Hawks were "in" today and the New York Rangers were practically "out."
The Hawks ripped the Rangers, 7-1, Thursday night to clinch a berth in the National Hockey League's Stanley Cup playoffs. The loss diminished the Rangers' chances of gaining the playoffs, even though the fourth-place Detroit Red Wings were beaten by the Boston Bruins, 4-2.
Chicago's victory assured at least a fourth place finish for the Black Hawks, even if they lose their remaining seven games. They currently are in third place, eight points in front of the Red Wings, who in turn lead the fifth place Rangers by another 10 points. Both the Red Wings and Rangers have eight games left to play.
four players because of ineligibility Among these were two starting guards Johnny Redwood and John Schmidt. Also lost were forward Lee Linhardt who was being counted on for depth at the forward spot, and guard Dick Benson. Phil Sorenson, 6-7, sat out the year because of a bad back.
OWEN SAID his team did not have any one boy who was potentially better than any other squad member.
"It is hard to tell now who will help the varsity; a lot depends upon the boy's progression from now on," Owens commented.
The coach singled out Dick Baker, 6-8 center, and Gene Shofner, a guard, as pleasant surprises. Baker was cited for his play at Manhattan when he scored 12 points, and Shofner was credited for overall improvement.
