Tyrone "Emotes"
One of the big mysteries of the week is still bothering us. . . .
We wonder whether Tyrone Power can pole vault or whether Harold
Hunt can play "Son of Fury" . . . The mystery, if we may call it
that, occurred in the Journal and Star of the Sunday past . . . There
were two cuts in the sports section with one headline above both. . . .
The cuts were of Harold Hunt and Tyrone Power. . . . The headline
"Look-Alikes One Vaults, One Emotes" . . . Maybe the Daily will
have to start something like that. . . . It's intriguing to say the least.
Track Team Shoves Off
Intent on winning some valuable places and points, the Husker
cinder artists under the tutelage of Coach Ed Weir. . . . The whole
team will not make the trip but the ones that have the best chance
to pull down some places will be taken. . . . Watch for Red Littler
to engage Farmer of Iowa in the 60. . . . That should be good . .
Also Hunt and Defield of Minnesota in the pole vault . . . Bob Ginn
will be forced to the limit by Campbell Kane of Indiana. . . . But
when you think about it, they should show the Big Ten something
in the line of track and field performances ... If they don't we miss
our guess.
Sight of the Week
At football workouts the other evening we were amused by Elmer
"Gus" Holm, new Scarlet line tutor. . . . Gus, who knows his football,
was watching his proteges in action. . . . After a play was over he
would run up to a player, tell him his mistake or compliment him on
his play. . . . When that was over with, he would say, "Pardon me,
but what was your name again?" ... He must have had double trou
ble when he ran up against the Grubaugh brothers, Marvin and Alvin.
Charley Black Doesnt Rate-
Kansas U. does not seem to have the same faith in Charley Black,
sophomore net sensation. . . . Black made practically every Big Six
team that was picked including the AP and others. ... He missed
one though. . . . That was his home school paper's all-conference team.
. . . They listed Ray Evans, another sophomore, In his place.
LAWRENCE, March 11. "I
said that I would go along if the
boys wanted to play, and if the
university s athletic council ap
proved," said Dr. F. C. "Phog"
Allen, celebrated basketball coach
of the University of Kansas, in
commenting today on the invita
tion to meet the Oklahoma Aggies
in the district N. C. A. A. playoffs.
"Both have done this so I'm in."
Practice or the Jayhawk cagers
was resumed this afternoon after
having been completely suspended
following the 67-44 shellacking
handed to Missouri Friday night,
which gave the Allen-men a tie
with Oklahoma for the Big Six
title. Incidentally, it was the Doc
tor's 19th title in the 25 years he
has tutored the Naismith disciples
on Mt. Oread.
Jays and Aggies Divide.
In two scheduled encounters
during the regular basketball sea
son, the men of Iba and the Jay
hawkers divided honors. The K. U.
five outlasted the Aggies on the
home court to win 31-28, while
down at Stillwater, the Aggies
preserved the tradition of never
having been defeated at home by a
K. U. team, and emerged at the
long end of a 40-33 score after a
heated battle.
Next week's meeting between
the Jayhawkers and the Oklahoma
Aggies will be the third time the

two have battled it out for im
portant playoff decisions.
In 1936, the teams met in old
Convention Hall before 3,500
customers In the contest to de
termine the district winner in the
campaign to select a representa
tive for the Olympic games in
Berlin. In that classic encounter,
K. U. bested the Acs the night be
fore, 33-30, sparked by Milt Allen's
nharpshooting, to gain a place in
the district finals.
K. U. Won in 1940.
Again, the teams met in 1940 In
Oklahoma City in the finals of the
district N. C. A. A. playoffs and
K. U. emerged victor in one of the
most torrid battles ever waged
between the two schools. The score
was 45-43, but it took an overtime
period to settle the issue.
"In this third playoff meeting,
by the law of averages we stand a
good chance to get licked," Dr.
Allen said.
Approval of the finance commit
tee of the athletic corporation for
the Jayhawkers to participate in
the N. C. A. A. playoffs was se
cured by a telephone poll Monday
night. Approval of the athletio
council was given by Dr. W."W.
Davis, chairman. Dr. Allen stated
that the gate receipts at next
week's game, after deduction of
expenses, would be divided equally
between the two schools.

May the best team win!
This seems like a fitting state
ment to make at the beginning of
the annual Nebraska high school
state basketball tournament. For
years this has been one of the red
letter events on the University f
Nebraska sports callendar.
This year as 3 nign scnoois Bena
teams to compete and as these
teams have proven to be of high
calibre, it makes the event all
the bigger in the eyes of everyone
concerned.
Some of the teams will lose
and some will win but Nebraska
teams can do either one f the
two better than any place else in
the nation.
To give you some idea of the
relative strength f the eight
teams in each league, we are pub
lishing the season's records. And
may the best team win!
