Champ Quint Undefeated in
Tourney Play; Callihan
Leads Way to Crown.
Al May's Panther basket-hawks,
having cleaned up all the avail
able competition in League One of
tiia initial barb basketball tourney
and ripped a swath up to the final
championship round Wednesday
evening, proceeded quite deliber
ately to annex the tournament
crown to their trophies by swamp
ing Y. M. C. A., 40-20.
Undefeated in the entire tourna
ment, the Panther aggregation,
plainly the class of the competi
tors, had as little trouble licking
the League Three champs as a
professional wrestler has in cover
ing the exact shade of his unbear
able agony to the fans. The Y
.quintet, midgets nlongsldc the
formidable Panther trio of Brock,
Callihan, and McDonald, fought
determinedly but vainly holding to
a 10-20 disadvantage at the half.
The classy Panthers were never
forced to make a game of it and
held down the Y offensive attempts
with ease.
J3U1 Callihan guided six field
cals and a brace of free throws
through the hoop for high scoring
honors, with Charley Brock, fresh
man football ace, trailing by a sin
gle point. Bender's eight points
were high for the losers.

Cyclones Mend
Ways This Week
For Kansas Ags
AMES, la., Jan. 16. Home from
a disastrous road trip which'
brought losses at Kansas and
Oklahoma, the Iowa State college
Cyclones began practice yesterday
for their game with Kansas State
college to be played at Ames Sat
urday night,
defending the Big Six confer
ence title they won last year, the
Cyclones faltered in their debut
with the unbeaten Kansas five last
Saturday, and then were taken out
again Monday by Oklahoma, 25 to
19.
The Iowa State defense, which
had formerly held its opponents to
art average of twenty-two points
per game, fell before the powerful
Jayhawk machine, but regained
its strength against Oklohama.
The Cyclone offense, however, held
true to Coach Louis Menze's pre
diction and completely failed to
click.
Coach Menze will probably slick
to his starting lineup of. Cowen,
Fleming, Thomson, Capt. Holmss,
and Gibson when the Cyclones face
the rugged Wildcats from Kansas
State.
Paced by towering Frank
Groves, high scoring center, the
Kansas State team will bring a
big, rugged and experienced out
fit to face the Cyclone five. Burns
and Thornborough at forwards,
Groves at center and Railsback
and Schlerlman, guards, will prob
ably start the contest for the
Wildcats.
A year ago Iowa State won
both of its games with Kansas
State, 29 to 25 at Manhattan, and
39 to 31 at the Ames court The
Manhattan quintet has won seven
of its ten games this season, as
compared with the Cyclone's four
wins in seven starts.

ALLENWWHAPPY
OVER JAYS' HOOP WINS
K. U. Coach Sees Everything
But Silver Lining for
His Basketeers.
LAWRENCE, Kan., Jan 16.
Kansas for the moment is riding
high in the basketball world, with
seven non-conference and two con
ference games won, but Dr. For
rest C. Allen, director of athletics
and basketball coach, is not be
coming unduly elated.
"It's a long ways to the sixth
of March,'' he said.
"Did you notice, too,' he asked,
"how the home team has won four
out of these first five games?
Kansas it not going to have an
easy time of it when the team
goes to Columbia Wednesday to
meet the University of Missouri.
You probably recall, also, that
Missouri took both games of a
double header last year, and defin
itely crowded Kansas from all
hopes of a conference champion
ship. Missouri is a 'home' team,
and regularly wins from the visit
ing teams."
Drl Allen also grew pessimistic
at the approach of mid-year ex
aminations, recalling that several
times in recent years he has lost
a valued player just as the basket
ball season was getting well under
way. If one of the five "iron
men," should have scholastic diffi
culties, and such a thing, Dr. Allen
said, is not impossible, then the
whole team that has been func
tioning so well this winter will
have to be re-arranged and a new
combination sought
After viewing dark possibilities
for a time, Dr. Allen looked over
the records again, and found that
opponents had been held to 17 in
both the conference games, and
California scored b-it 18 in the sec
ond game of that scries. That re
minded the coach of the 1924
season when opponents, except for
two games, were held to scores of
less than 20. "Keep 'em in the
teens," was the slogan that year.
In its two games, Kansas has
averaged 33 points to opponents'
17, or a ratio of almost 2 to 1.
Nebraska and Kansas State also
are ahead of opponents.

Texas V Daily Has
Correspondent in
African War Zone
GREENVILLE, Tex. (ACP). J.
C. Arnold, 19, University of Texas
journalism sophomore, decided he
wanted to be a war correspondent,
in spite of having little experience,
money or connections. So he got
aboard the first freighter offering
him a chance to work his way to
Dijbouti, French Somaliland, and
several Texas papers are now
using his feature stories, air mailed
from Addis Ababa.
According to the last word re
ceived by his agent, Boyd Sinclair,
editor of the Wesley College Pilot,
Arnold is staying in Addis Ababa
with Count Hilliare du Berrier,
French adventurer, an English air
plane pilot, and a newspaperman
from Lahore, India.
Arnold sailed from Marsailles,
France, to Djibouti with Taklo
Hawariate, Ethiopian delegate to
the League of Nations, Interview
ing him on the journey.
According to Arnold, whose
school paper, The Texan, boasts
of being the only college daily hav
ing a special correspondent in the
war zone, Addis Ababa is law
abiding, justice is swift and sure,
and the main danger to life and
limb lies not in war complications
but in the native driven taxis.
g KETCHES
It now seems that Amen is the
end to the coaching staff's prayers.
The varsity red is a most becoming
color to Paul, who has been robed
in the hue during both the basket
ball and football calendars. At
present he adds weight to the
sliverful bench, but he Is only a
sophomore with two remaining
years packed with possibilities.
.When another year rolls around a
precedence will be broken as the
Husker fans shout "Amen" at the
initial rather than at the final
whistle.
In contradiction to the official
roster, little Amen is nineteen
rather than twenty-one years of
age. He stands a shade better
than five eleven with his bare
toes hanging out. His success is
attributed mostly to mercury feet
which have to date done a fine
job of propelling their possessor.
Paul was a headlincr in two years
of both basketball and football,
and a three year man on the base
ball diamond at Lincoln high
school.
On some distant day he hopes to
bring a big league crowd to their
feet He has no definite plans,
yet he intends to maintain the
lifty ambition of swinging the big
time bludgeon until the feat has
been accomplished. Invoicing his
other two sports, it will he noted
that the pork hide ranks over
basketball by a hair.
Paul Amen is the name found
deeply engraved on the scholar-
shin trophy of the Delta Tau ueiia
fraternity, his average, however,
will not be divulged lest we give
away a Delt skeleton.
He rubbed an unbewhlskered
chin and with a mild grin assured
us that love was not among one
of his convictions. He does date,
however, merely as a matter of
tradition, I suppose. At the same
time he endorsed university panics
and mumbled something about
morals: good morals, of course.
While on trek across the plains
to Minnesota, Amen wanted to get
the University's money's worth,
so he rigged up some self enter
tainment In one of the leading
hotels on the journey an orchestra
was melodizing. Within Paul's
cranium an Idea was rapidly be
ing bom. Knowing that Pete
Baker had a better than average
voice he sauntered up to the band
leader and arranged for a Baker
solo. The request was granted,
and Pete crooned. Both the crowd
and Amen were very happy. The
same playful nature was exhibited
on the Rocky mountain excursion,
but the audition business hit an
acute slump.

Hoopsters' Only Difficulty
Carrying Out Knight's
Basket Apiece Order.
Altho Coach Wilbur Knight's
Nebraska "B" net swishers
pounced on Nebraska Central col
lege for a 56 to 7 massacre Tues
day evening on the ag college
floor, the Huskers had a hard
time completing the annihilation.
The difficulty lay In the fact that
the B hoopsters, leaving the floor
at the half with a 44 to 3 wallop
ing in their favor and the pros
pects of a complete shutout in the
final period, were hard put to obey
Coach Knight's Instructions of one
basket apiece.
Completely outclassed and out
played, comparing to their con
querors engine .alongside a Diesel
powered tractor, the Central City
quintet might as well have been
comopsing charades. Altho they
put up a gallant fight, 3 points
were all they could slip in between
the rhythmic point-a-minute tempo
of the Huskers. And in the last
frame, altho the Huskers missed
a score of ridiculously easy shots
and turned their side of the game
into a ludicrous monotony of drab
play, the Central crew --was unable
to draw out more than 4 tallies.
The scoring ledger, which was
represented by all but one of
Coach Knight's eleven players,
gave high scoring honors to Mer
rill Morris, who corralled 12 points
in the course of the net-warming.
Cliff Scott and Lloyd Wampler
were second in the compilations
with 8 each. Torpin scored 4
points for the losers. Summaries:
