J By JOE MILLER. A three way scramble for the Big Six basketball championship between Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma, with the Jayhawks fa vored to come through with an other title, is on deck during this final week of conference play. The league leading Missouri Ti gers face an almost "suicide" schedule this week, playing all three tilts away from home. The Tigers meet Oklahoma Monday, Nebraska Friday, and Kansas State Saturday. Coach Forrest Al len's Kansas quint, now in second place, have but a single game re maining, that with Oklahoma Sat urday at Lawrence. Jayhawks Hit Stride. The Javhawkers seem to have hit their stride, polishing off the Huskers 51 to 19 early last week and trouncing Missouri 24 to 16 Saturday night at Lawrence. Okla homa turned in a 34 to 22 victory over Kansas State to keep in the running with five wins and three losses. Iowa State was relegated to fifth place by Kansas State, Coach Corsaut's men winning by a 30 to 27 count. Oklahoma-Kansas game Satur day at Lawrence begins to assume the aspects of a possible cham pionship battle. K. U. needs the tilt to claim a share in the title spoils. However, if the Sooners annex their Monday game with Missouri and then bump off Kansas, the championship will go to Oklahoma. Pre-game dope gives the edge to Kansas, since the Lawrence crew will be shooting at a chance for the title, plus the advantage of' playing on their home court. Ted O'Leary, Kansas forward, has scored 96 points to lead the conference scorers, while his team mate Bill Johnson, center, is in second place with 87 tallies. Heit man, Iowa State center, rang up 84 points for his season's effort. Johnny Cooper, Missouri for ward, is in fourth place with 75 points, but he has a fine chance to be on top when the season closes Saturday. Andy Beck, Okla homa goal artist, ranks fifth with 71 points in eight games. ACK Epstein must be placed alongside John Keriakedes as one of the boys to whom fate has turned a cold shoulder. You see Kpstein, like John, is a plunge-for- distance star, but th' event is not carried on the collegiate swim ming curriculum. Epstein, a fresh man, was all-state champ at Oma ha Central, where he lettered for four years. IF HUSKER grid fans have the idea that the new football rule prohibiting the use of hands will discriminate against the smaller player, he or she should dismiss the thought, in the opinion of Coaches Bible and Day. They as sert frankly that the new rule on this point will benefit Nebraska's midget guards, Clair Bishop and Warren DeBus and other small linemen. As Bill Day put it: "Have you ever seen Bishop or DeBus strike an opponent on the head under the old rules? No. They charge low going through the line, depending on speed and cleverness. Now under the new code, opponents of these men will not be allowed to use the hands, offensively or de fensively, thus making it easier for the smaller player. rOPESTERS give Missouri very little chance to remain at the top of the Big Six conference cage race when the smoke has cleared away, with the Tigers facing an al most "suicide" schedule during this final week. Coach Edward's quintet meets Oklahoma Monday, Nebraska Friday and Kansas State Saturday, all away from home. Kansas, in second place has only to meet Oklahoma at Law rence, Saturday, and Jayhawk title prospects appear exceedingly bright at the moment. The Soon ers may pull a surprise, however. A Nebraska win over Missouri would greatly relished. Besides, it would serve to complicate the standings. MOHAWK WILL EXHIBIT AQUATIC STUNTS TODAY OKLAHOMA TURNS IN 'Human Seal' Will Perform Difficult Under Water Tricks at 4:30. A swimming exhibition by Ceola Mohawk, nationally famous stunt- swimmer, is in store for student aquatic enthusiasts Tuesday after noon at 4:30 in the coliseum pool. A special rate of twenty-five cents plus a student ticket has been made to students. The regular ad mission charge to the general pub. lie will be fifty cents. The demonstration is being held for the purpose of raising funds towards Nebraska's contribution to the American Olympic fund. AionawK nans from Seattle. wasn., and is known as the "hu man seal." Such difficult tricks as singing under water, eating under water, swimming vertically with head down and feet protruding anove tne water, Egyptian float ing, swimming feet first either on the surface or under it, a triple back porpoise and sculling are in eluded in Mohawk's repertory. Several unique records are also claimed by Mohuwk, some of his best known feats being a 378 feet under water swim with one breath and a five mile under water swim executed 100 feet at a time in a total elapsed time of 12 hours anu 55 minutes. Varsity swimmers were amazed at the short demonstration which the "seal" gave for them last week and classified the exhibition as near magic.

Six Lead. NORMAN, Okl. Oklahoma de feated Missouri 28 to 17 in a thrill ing battle Monday night. The vic tory boosted the Sooners into a tie with Kansas for first place, with Missouri a half game behind in second position. Johnny Cooper, Tiger forward, eluded the Oklahoma guards for twelve points for high scoring honors. Bross led the Sooner team with nine counters. Beck was held to four points. It was the first time in three years that an Oklahoma quintet had been able to register a victory over a Missouri team. A win over Kansas Saturday will clinch a tie for the Big Six title.

Clifford Mell, McKln ney, Tex., and Warren "Bus1 Moore, Oklahoma City, have been invited to compete on a picked team of "Big Six" conference ath letes in a dual meet against the Los Angeles, Calif., Athletic club in the twenty-seventh annual Kan saa City Athletic club meet at Kansas City Feb. 27, it was learned recently, from Ben, G. Owen, athletic director. Captain Mell was selected for the 440 yard dash and Moore for the 880 yard dash. However Dr. Joe Reilly, K. C. A. C. athletic di rector, notified Owen that John Jacobs, the Sooner coach, was free to substitute for either of the above men and as Mell will prob ably defend his 600 yard Shannon Douglass cup championship, won last February, Jacobs will prob' ably substitute another man for him in the 440 yard race. Most of the scratch events that were formerly open to all compet itors nave been erased from the program this year. Aside from the dual meet between "Big Six schools and the Los Angeles Ath letic club, there will be only scratcn events in the 50, 440 and 1,000 yard dashes and 50 yard hlirh hurdles, the Intercollegiate mile relays and a reduced number of hlyh school events. No ward or grammar school events are on the program this year. Coach Jacobs has meanwhile de veloped the Sooner track team to a point where it could probably give a good account of itself in competition this week end. Simms, Pansze, Thrower and Plog have turned the indoor 60 yards in around 6.5 seconds, Morris, Cap tain Mell, Hewett and Abbott have all beaten 57 seconds for the In door quarter, Dale has run a 2:07 'a half mile indoors and Moore a 2:01 one outdoors, Dale has run a 4:45 mile indoors and Hildt and New- block a 6.3 second 50 yard low hurdles. In the field events Newblock. Simms and Barham have all jumped 6 feet 1 inch in the high jump while Howell has done 45 feet 2!2 inches and Gilles 44 feet 3 inches in the shot put. Raymond Null, leading pole vault prospect. hasn't yet jumped for height. Otis Detrick. Sigma Nu. and editor of the Cornhusker was con fined to his bed by illness yesterday. Professional Troupe Slated to Appear at Lawrence on March 11. LAWRENCE, Kans.-Big shots of the tennis world will be on pa rade at the University of Kansas auditorium the night of March 11, it was announced recently by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics, who has Just received word that William T. Tilden, world profes- slonal tennis champion, and his troupe which is playing a aeries of matches looking toward the crowning of the professional cham pion of 1932, have consented to make a stop at Lawrence. Tilden's choice of Lawrence for an appearance in action was largely influenced by his friendship ror wiiDur coen, jr., his protege, and the captain of the University or Kansas tennis team this season, Proceeds from the Tilden matches at the auditorium will be used in making a budget for the Kansas tennis team this season, not only In its efforts to defend the Big Six title won last season but in bring ing, outstanding college compe tltion here from the south and pos slbly the Pacific coast. Dr. Allen said. Coming here with Tilden will be Albert Burke, the famous Irish professional; Hans Nusslein, twen ty-two year old German who is professional champion of Europe; and Roman Najuch. Czechoslovak- Ian pro tennis champion, who with Nusseleln holds the European rro aoumes title. The coming of Tilden and the European stars insures local fans of seeing some of the outstanding tennis players of the world today In action in an indoor setting. In all probability Tilden will engage wussiein in singles and Tilden and Burke will play Nusslein and Na juch in doubles. Tilden and his troupe will not appear in any city near Lawrence on this tour and the matches will probably draw a large attendance of tennis fans from Kansas City, xopeKa ana otner cities. iennis prospects at K. u. are again bright this season and the Tilden matches will give impetus to the tennis enthusiasm which got well underway last season. With Junior Coen captaining the Jay- hawker squad this year Coach W. R. Smith has two other letter men from last season's champion- snip squad. They are Leonard Prosser and George Hurd, both of whom won the most of their matches last season. In addition to these Ted O'Leary. letterman of two season's ago is still eligible and may play some this year. An outstanding possi bility for the squad this season In the way of new material is Sterl ing CutllD of Kansas City, Rock hill Tennis club star, who twice was runner-up in the Kansas City city championship tournament.
