Lee Alexander, sensational Sig
ma Phi Epsilon thinclad, break
ing one of his own records in
the feature race of the day, the
Fraternity 440 yard dash.
As in Tuesday's running of
the 2-lap run, Alexander took
an early lead over Hobe Jones,
Alpha Tau Omega ace, fought
off Jones' determined rally 100
yards from the finish, and then
pulled away for an easy victory.
The time for the event v-as a
spectacular 51.9, which is equiva
lent to about a 49.9 seconds out
doors. To top that off, Alexan
der ran the race in stockined
feet.
Wayne Whitaker, also of Sig
ma Phi Epsilon, put on a terrific
stretch drive to come in third
with a time of 53.8 seconds, just
one-tenth of a second better than
the 53.9 recorded for fourth
place Bob Barchus of Sigma Chi.
Dan Tolman, also of Sigma Chi.
finished fifth in 54.1. Another
Sig Chi, Phil Heidelk, finished
in sixth place with a time of
55.7 seconds.
Dale Schnackel was unopposed
in the Independent running of
the 440 yard dash and won in
54.6, which is six-tenths of a
second over the record set by
him in the preliminaries.
Schnackel is running under the
banner of Field House.
Harold Sampson of Presby was
supposed to waltz to an easy
victory in the Interdenomination
al finals of the 440, but found
himself involved in a near photo
finish which included Cal Ger
man, Ag YMCA and Bob Rutz
of Inter-Varsity.
German was given the victory
in the time of 56.3 which Is a
new record for this event, re
placing the 56.5 recorded by
Sampson in the prelims. Samp
son finished in a second-place
tie with Rutz.
A duel between Dan Tolman,
Sigma Chi, and Don Bedker, Phi
Gamma Delta was the feature of
the Fraternity's 60 yard low
hurdles. Tolman won out in the
time of 7.4, just one-tenth of a
second over the record of 7.3,
set by Gene "Red" Littler In
1939. Bedker's second place time
was 7.5 seconds.
Hobe Jones, ATO, surprised
with a third-place finish, fol
lowed by Don Coupens and Don

Cyclones
Kansas State's rapidly im
proving cagers will go on the
home maples for the first time
in three weeks Saturday night
when they Entertain the tower
ing Iowa State Cyclones. An es
timated 11,000 fans are expected
to be in Manhattan for the 8
p.m. tipoff.
Coach Jack Gardner's club
proved that a jinx was just like
a record it's there to be broken
Saturday night at Columbia,
Mo., as they smacked the Tigers
60-43 to end a 13-year Missouri
home court jinx. It was a sweet
victory for Gardner as he col
lected his first win at Columbia
and saw his team get a running
start in the Big Seven race.
The Wildcats' defense will get
a stiff test this weekend against
the Cyclones. The Ames men can
field a starting lineup averaging
6-6 one of the nation's tallest.
They proved their worth Sat
urday night as they dumped
Oklahoma 48-46 at Ames.
Emphasis on Defense
Emphasis this week is being
put, on defense by the Gardner
men in an effort to throw up an
effective bulwark against the
Cyclones.
The Cats' defense was at its
season best against Missouri. The
Bengals left the floor at a half
time with a 48 percent field goal
average, but weren't to keep it
long. The Purple applied the
handcuifs the second half to the
Tigers and poured on the coal
offensively. The Missourians fin
ished with a 24.6 average while
K-State hit 44 percent from the
Held.
Gardner contemplates no line
up change against the Cyclones,
but probably will use his two
tali men, centers Lew Hitch 6-7,
and Dick Knostman 6-5, in the
lineup more often at the same
"time. Probable starters will be
Jack Stone and John Gibson for
wards, Hitch, Ernie Barrett and
Jim Iverson at guards.
For Iowa State, Coach Chick'
Sutherland is expected to field
Sy Wilhelmi and Gaylord Ander
son in the forward posts, Delmar
Diercks at center and Jim Stange
and Sam Long or Dan Young
blade at guards.
CU Cindermen
Report to Potts
"This is the beginning of 'Get
Acquainted Week" on my track
squad," head track mentor
Frank Potts of the University of
Colorado announced today as he
met with aspiring cindermen for
the first time.
Potts, one of the wiliest track
coaches in the nation, coached
his sfcjuad to second place in the
Big Seven conference outdoor
meet last year, but lost fifteen
lettermen from that team. To
make things worse, several of
his outstanding frosh from last
year have been drafted or en
listed in the armed forces.
Only three outstanding men
Will be left from that 1950
squad, one of Colorado's best.
They are Wally Tanner (Boul
der), the number two shot-put
man last season; Merwin Hodel
(Rockford, 111.), who grabbed
the Big Seven indoor low hur
dle crown last season with a
record-tying mark, but failed to
letter because he went out for
spring football; and Augie Raso
(Denver), the number two
sprinter on the 1950 aggrega
tion. Thus Potts is faced with the
task of molding a completely in
experienced squad into a track
team in time for the opening in
door meet of the season a ten
tative contest with Nebraska at
Lincoln on February 3.
Among the losses from the
1950 squad will be Jim Allen,
(Arvada), conference record
holder and champion in the
shot put, and who also grabbed
a second in the conference dis
cus throw; George Fitzmorris
(Colorado Springs), greatest
miler and two-miler in Colo
rado history, who won the Duel
of Champions two-mile in 9:18
and the entire mile relay squad
which took second in the Big 7.

his prelim record for this event.
The Fraternity shot put finals
found only one change from the
preliminary marks. Paul Grimm

lb. balli 51 feet 9 inches. James,
however, couldn't better his pre
lim mark of 49 feet 6 inches.
Tom Stoup, Sigma Nu. bet
tered his old mark of 45 feet .1
inch by exactly one foot. This
was good enough for third place.
Dick King, representing Sigma
Phi Epsilon, was credited with
a heave of 45 feet 3 inches for
fourth place.
Dan Dowart, Sig Ep, moved
from seventh to fifth place with
a heave of 44 feet 9 inches. This
was almost a foot better than the
43'-10" recorded for Wayne
Handshy, Phi Gamma Delta.
Cliff Dale, second in the pre
Christmas preliminaries, won the
Independent title with a heave of
48 feet 10 inches. Springer Jones,
Field House, was second with a

Assoc., was third with 37 feet 11
inches. Cal German finished
fourth with a heave of 37 feet 2

fifth with 34 feet 5 inches.
Sigma Phi Epsilon increased
its lead over Sigma Chi in the
two-team race for the Fraternity
championship. The Sig Eps, be
hind the efforts of Alexander
and Whitaker, have widened
their 11 point Tuesday lead to 14
points going into the last day of
competition.
Alpha Tau Omega, mostly be
cause the running of Jones, are
in third-place with 26 points.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon holds down
the number four position with 7
points. The Sig Alpha are fifth
with 7 points.
Presby increased its 27 point
lead over Ag College YMCA in
the Interdenominational race to
to points. Such a tremendous lead
as this just about gives the
Presby's the title for the second
year in a row.
Field House, having little com
petition, has now garnered a total
of 67 points in its quest for the
Independent championship. Inde
pendent runners have made but
16 points.

Morris House,
PCii Psi's Cop C
Nine games spiced the Tuesday
card in Intramural basketball
with most of the games going
true to form. Two Interdenomi
national, two fraternity "A," and
five fraternity "B" games were
on the agenda.
Presby House opened its cag
season with a victory by over
taking a determined Methodist
House aggregation. The final
score read 24-13 with the Presby
defense coming Into its own the
last three quarters.
The Methodists led at the end
of the initial period by a 11-8
score, but the high flying Method
ists were grounded here. A slow
second stanza produced only a
two-pointer for the Fresbys ana
the half ended 11-10, Methodist
House.
Clark Betcke and Norm Sothan
led the victors' attack in the sec
ond half and while they were
scoring points the Presby defense
was limiting the losers to two
lonely markers.
Betcke and sotnan
Betcke and Sothan tied for top
scoring honors with seven apiece.
DeBelly was tops for the Method
ists with six counters.
Norris House amassed 17
points while holding Acacia to
two in the first quarter of their
game and then easily rolled to a
50-26 victory.
Only in the second period did
the Masons come close in scoring
to the Norris victors. In that
period Acacia got five to Norris
House's six.
Joe Babcock was the scoring
machine for the Norris aggrega
tion, unbeaten in two starts.
Babcock collected an evening's
total of 18 points to lead the way.
This total is the third highest
individual performance of the
still young season. Gene Yelkin
of the Geologists has turned in
the best performance to date
with 20 points in the Geologist
58-19 victory over the Bed
Guidons.
Al Kramer tossed in 13 points
for the second best for the eve
ning. Cunningham of the Acacia's
led his outfit with nine markers.
Delta IM'i Win
Delta Chi and Delta Sigma Pi
hooked up m a low scoring affair
that saw a Delta Chi rally in the
last few minutes just fall short
as the Delta Pi's won a thriller,
19-18.
The victors emerged one point
ahead at the first quarter and
kept that margin at the half, the
score at the horn being 9-8.
The Delta Pi's widened their
hold on the victory a little in the
third period and led 18-13 going
into the final quarter. The Delta
Chi's allowed the winners one
point more and then began to
whittle the margin down. The
Delta Pi's had enough, however,
to repulse the final Delta Chi bid
and the game ended 19-18.
Mick Sisley of the losing Delta
Chi's topped the game's scorers
with eight. Hock had five for
Delta Sigma Pi for tops. Hinkley
and Simmons each contributed
four.
In the other Denom corUest,
InterVarsity accepted a forfeit
from the Baptist House.
Fijig Cop
In the fraternity "A" competi
tion, high flying Phi Gamma
Delta shot past Sigma Alpha
Epsilon to a 25-18 win. The Fiji
Bees shot to an early lead an
maintained it throughout the
contest. The halftime marein

for the victorious. Fijis with a
night's total of 14. Bob Jensen
led the SAE's in point getting
with 12 markers.
The unbeaten Phi Delts dou
bled the score on Sigma Nu and
wound up the evening with a
34-17 victory. It was the second
win in as many starts for Phi
Delta Theta.
Paul Gustafson was high point
man during the game, leading the
victors with 12 counters. Wahl
added eight points for the win
ners. Babcock was tops for th
losing Nu's with seven counters.
Sigma Chi had no trouble with
Delta Tau Delta and rolled to a
35-19 win. The Sigs led at half
time 19-8 and coasted the rest
of the way to their second
straight win.
Bardnard was the top scorer
with ten points. Sample led tha
Dclts with eight.
Phi Kappa Psi rolled convinc
ingly to a 27-16 victory over
Farm House in the Bee competi
tion. They started slowly and led
at the half, 7-3. Bob Britten hit
ting for the winners in the sec
ond half, however, and they
