NORMAN. Okla.. Feb. 20.
With freshmen becoming eligible
for Big Six conference varsity
sports March 1, Coach Bruce
Drake of the Oklahoma basketball
team has been eyeing the all-victorious
Oklahoma freshmen team
covetously.
Lack of manpower wasn't the
reason the Sooners were measured
by -Missouri's big, fast-improving
sophomore outfit 50-45 at Coulm

young Tigers full credit for snap

MINNEAPOLIS. Feb. 24. "The
status of intercollegiate athletics
may be somewhat in doubt but in
tramural sports at the University
of Minnesota will be continued as
long as we have even two men
who want to compete in some ac
tivity," W. R. Smith, intramural
director at Minnesota, declares.
Team sports, as usual, are the
most popular in intramural, with
basketball leading the way. Over
1,000 men are participating in the
annual winter tournament which
will ultimately lead to the all-university
finals and championship
scheduled for March 4, the night
of the yearly intramural carnival.
Individual sports such as box
ing, wrestling, table tennis, fenc
ing and swimming also have a big
following at Minnesota and they
will come to a climax on March 4.
Besides physically developing its
own men to aid the war effort,
Minnesota, like a number of other
universities and colleges, has
loaned its athletic facilities to the
army and navy. Conditioning
classes for the armed service men,
who are on the campus for tech
nical training, meet at every hour
of the day.

Sure Thing!
BY GENE SHERMAN.
Next Tuesday evening should be
a busy evening for I-M aspirants
with both class "A" and "B" semi
final playoffs on the docket.
The "A" pairings just released
find the Phi Gams pitted against
the Kappa Sigs in the opener and
the torrid Phi Delta facing the
Farm House men in the nightcap.
Indications point toward a Phi
Delt-Phi Gam championship tussle,
but the late performances of both
the Farm House and Kappa Sigs,
although not as flashy as the fa
vorites, give indications that an
upset in either game should not
be too much of surprise.
The Kappa Sigs rose to the oc
casion, by running wild during the
second half of the championship
DU game to dump the favored
DU's, while the Farm House, al
though in a fairly easy league,
gathered enough needed experience
in the breather games to play the
favored Beta to a standstill in the
title game.
In class "B" the DU's will face
the Phi Delts and the Betas will
meet either the ATO's or SAM's.
The ATO's who are undefeated
must win over the once-defeated
Sammies in a Monday night game.
If the Sammies win, another game
between these two clubs will be
required.
When SAM Bob Bramson
dropped in 15 points against the
ZBT's the other night he cinched
l-M high scoring honors for the
season, y In four games Bramson
scored 40 points for an averaae
of ten per game.
Phi Gam Don Andreson who
was recently called to the Army
Air Corps ranks next to Bramson
wun w points m lour games. If
Andreson would have been avail
able for the Phi Gam-Delta Sig
game, chances are that he would
have taken over the number one
spot from Bramson.
The Phi Gams averaged 30
points per game and the Phi Delts
averaged 29 during this season's
a regulation l-M game is
only 24 minutes in length, you can
see that our l-M department can
boast of two more-than-a-point-a-minute
ball clubs.
When the Alpha Sigs beat the
Theta Xi's in a basketball game
last week it was the first I-M vic
tory of any sort for the winners.
In three "B" games the ZBT's
have scored only 3 points -ovhile
their opponents have sent 108
markers through the netting.
When the ATO and SAM "B"
clubs meet next Monday evening
fans will see the two "big" men
of the Innocents Society facing
each other Mort "Zube" Zuber
and George "G. Willie" Abbot.
Dr. Elbert K. Fretwell, professor
of education at Teachers college.
Columbia university, has succeed
ed Dr. James E. West as chief
scout executive of the Boy Scouts

Jayhawk Evans
Wins Acclaim '
LAWRENCE, Feb. 25 Dr.
Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, whose
University of Kansas Jayhawkers
are currently at the top of the
heap in the Bix Six conference
rankings and whose teams for a
quarter of a century have been
perennially outstanding in the na
tion, was named America's No. 1
basketball coach in the annual col
legiate basketball record issued
last week by the Helm's Athletic
Foundation.
Dr. Allen, in the report, is desig
nated as "the greatest basketball
coach of all time." Other cage
mentors in the first ten are Jus
tin M. Barry, Southern California;
Clair Bee, Long Island U.; Os
borne B. Cowles, Dartmouth; Clar
ence S. Edmunson, Washington;
Nat Holman, C. C. N. Y.; Lon
Walter Jourdct, Pennsylvania; the
late George E. Keogan, Notre
Dame; Ward Lewis Lambert, Pur
due; and Dr. Walter E. Meanwell,
formerly of the University of Wis
consin. Evans Ail-American.
The basketball teams of Allen,
who celebrated his 25th year at the
Universtiy of Kansas last March,
have won or tied for 18 champion
ships during his tenure as cage
mentor on Mt. Oread. In 1921 and
again in 1922, his teams won the
national collegiate titles. In 1940,
the Jayhawkers were nosed out
for the national title in the N. C.
A. finals by Indiana, and in 1942,
they advanced to the quarter
finals. Ray Evans, who was named
also as an all-America n football
player last year, is one of a select
few who have made both grid and
cage Helm's Foundation a 11-American
teams. Other names by the
Helm's report were Harry Kepke
and Bennie Oosterbaan, both of
Michigan.
Cyclone Wrestler
Gains His Revenge
AMES, la., Feb. 25. George
Gast is going to take a swell
memory with him when the Iowa
State junior goes to the army next
month.
As a sophomore, Gast dropped
a tournament decision to Leon
Martin of Iowa Teachers. From
that moment on he lived for the
time he would even the score.
In the dual meet at Cedar Falls
in 1942 Martin wrestled heavy
weight so they didn't meet. But
last Monday night the match fi
nally took place and Gast turned
in "the greatest match seen in
Ames in more than 20 years to de
feat the 1942 intercollegiate run
nerup in the 175 class. It was the
first dual meet loss in Martin's
carreer.
Probably the finest tribute paid
Gast after the match was given
by Roy Martin, father of the de
feated Panther star:
"That was the finest match I've
ever seen. I want to shake Cast's
hand."
