SPORT NOTES
KU Gates Lead Big 8
Basketball attendance in the Big Eight this year is running at the second highest level in the history of the league, with a conference average of 6,256 after 52 games. Led by KU, five of the league teams are ahead of last year's pace.
KU's attendance is up almost 4,000 a contest, averaging 11,967 this year, compared with 8,000 last year at this time. The highest per-game league average for a season came in 1957 when the mark of 6,922 was set. At that time KU averaged 15,500 in Allen Field House to watch Wilt Chamberlain and company.
THE LONG-STANDING WAR between the AAU and the NCAA will have to be settled in the next few months or the United States will suffer the consequences in this summer's dual track meet against Russia.
APPARENTLY the athletic directors of Iowa State University and Colorado State University feel Thanksgiving day turkey will draw better crowds than a football game would. The game between the two schools, originally scheduled for Thanksgiving Day, will be played on Nov. 26, it has been announced.
TICKETS for the 38th annual Big Eight Conference indoor track championships, February 25-26 in Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium, are on sale in the Auditorium's box office from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday.

When the champions from all "A," "B," and "C" leagues have been decided, the top teams from the fraternity and independent leagues will play in the Hill playoffs to determine the KU intramural basketball champions.
