Big Six League Decides
Frosh Lads May Compete
Annual fall conference of Bi? Six athletic directors con
vened in Kansas City Friday night and arrived at two deci
sions: 1. Freshmen will participate in liig Six intercollegiate
athletics, effective Mnrch 1. 2. Sports schedules of league
teams will be continued as far as possible, despite the war.
It required an entire afternoon and a night of strenuous
debate to unanimously approve the frosh eligibility decision.
First-year tracksters, therefore, will be allowed to compete in
the annual Big Six indoor track meet March 6.
Nebraska and Iowa State were the sole schools to oppose
the resolution. The frosh ruling will remain effective until the
war closes or until it has been ruled down by the conference.
To compete frosh performers Tnust carvy 12 semester hours
aside from military drill and physical education and must sat
isfactorily complete the preceding semester s work beiore re
oeivinsr a letter.
Another decision during the
Six outdoor track meet at Kansas City, May 22, to meet with
transportation difficulties.

Outlook Tops
Big Six Loop
NORMAN, Okla., Dec. 12. On
the credit side of the Sooner
ledger are seven returning let
tcrmen from last year's surpris
ingly powerful club built around
three sophomores, Gerald Tucker,
Dick Reich and Bob McCurdy, all
of whom return. Allie Paine,
competent little sophomore ball
handler of the 1940-41 team, is
also back.
In the debit column are (1) loss
f three letter men. Don "Bones"
Jones, hero of the victory over
Kansas at Norman, Mitch Simon,
hero of the one-point defeat of
Kansas State at Manhattan and
Warren Lehman and (2) loss to
the armed forces of the all-victorious
Sooner freshman team of last
year. For the first time since
basketball started at Norman
back tn 1907, no Bophomores are
reporting.
This depletes the squad's re
serve strength and might be fatal
over the long haul of the 23-game
schedule. Besides, sophomores
have been the life blood of prac
tically all Oklahoma's greatest
teams, as for example Floyd Mc
Bride, Maurice "Doc" Ruppert and
John Dunlap of the "24 quintet,
Bruce Drake of the '27 team, Tom
Churchill of the '28 team, Laurie
Meyer and Cliff Shearer of the '29
team, Jimmy McNatt, Marvin

the fast-breaking Boy Scats of

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Dec
12. Dr. Carl Nordly, who has
taken over the head basketball
coaching position at the Univer
sity of Minnesota this year, can
see a rood many promising traits
in his young and ambitious squad
but no championship.
"We lost too many men through
eraduation and the draft," Dr.
Nordly says. "And we cannot
help but be short of reserves. The
GoDhers' first five may have two
sophomores on it and the inex
perience will handicap us In the
early games.
"The team has fine spirit and
will undoubtedly improve from
cun to rame but our veterans
from last year will have to shoul
dpr the brunt of the attack. We
seem to have some pretty fair
ball-handlers and our shooting
should Improve."
