Debate
Seconal!

A decided dark horse came
through to win the Big Six in
door track championships at Kan
sas City last Saturday when Iowa
State grabbed off the laurels.
The Cyclones were definitely an
unknown quantity when the cur
tain went up on this year's car
nival, but it took them but a
short time to demonstrate to the
three thousand onlookers that they
were clearly the class of the meet.
Heavily spiked with Naval
trainees, the Iowa Staters won the
championship, their first indoor
crown, in easy fashion.
Kratz Shines.
Nebraska's seven man squad
made a creditable showing, grab
bing as many first places as the
Cyclones but lacking the squad
strength to give them better than
fourth place. Dean Kratz, sopho
more letterman, lived up to ad
vance notices by copping both the
440 and the 880. With two more
years of competition before him,
Kratz bids fair to rank among
the best middle distance runners
in Nebraska track history.
The showing of Norval Barker,
frosh hurdler, gave promise of
greater things to come. Barker
copped second in both hurdle
events in the meet, .his second
taste of collegiate competition.
The tall, blond lad has already
eaualled the best times which
Husker great Bill Smutz turned
in as a freshman, and Smutz, it
will be remembered, set confer
ence marks in the hurdle events.
Sooners Rock Cyclones.
Oklahoma's 44-30 victory over
Iowa State Monday night ranks
as the biggest upset to date in
Big Six conference play. Victori
ous over the Sooners at Norman
earlier in the season, the Cyclones
were doped to take the Okla-
homans in handy fashion and
cinch the conference Crown.
Bruce Drake's Sooners had
other ideas on the matter, how
ever, and assured themselves of
at least a half share of the loop
title by completely outclassing the
Iowa Staters, 44-30.
K.U.'s Phog Allen Frets;
Team Misses Free-Shots
LAWRENCE, Kas. The matter
of free throws is distressing the
Old Master of basketball on Mt.
Oread these days. Coach Forrest
C. "Phog" Allen's University of
Kansas basketeers dropped two
torrid, closely contested cage
games to Bruce Drakes enter
prising Sooners from UKianoma,
simply because the team members
were unable to hit the loop from
the charity line. In both games,
the Jayhawks outscored the
Drakemen from the field, but
when the carnage of battle had
cleared away, the Oklahomans
were out in front by one point in
the first game, and by four in the
return engagement at Norman.
Phog Ex-college Ace.
All of which has developed some
new gray hairs in the unusually
youthful appearing head of Or.
Allen. Dr. Allen played basketball
when one team member was
elected to shoot all the free throws
for his team, and he was the se
lected back in the days when he
played for the University of Kan
sas. In one contest with the Has
kell Indians, he set a record of 30
charity tosses out of 31 chances,
and then the free throw mark was
back 20 feet from the goal instead
of 15 where it is now located
So concern over free throws is
nothing new for "Phog." A daily
routine of every member of his
squad is to toss 50 free throws
under competitive conditions, with
players lined up on either side of
the free zone, and stepping back
from the mark after each throw.
It isn't just lack of practice that
causes the boys to miss when
they get into a hot game. It must
be hyper-tension, Dr. Allen points
out.
Dr. Allen Perplexed.
In Norman last week, the Soon
ers canned 15 out of 17 attempts
from the free line while the Kan
sans got only 5 out of 13 chances.
Big Don Barrington, who scored
eight field goals, missed five out
of seven efforts. And MacSpaddeo,
the only veteran on the team,
went astray on three. Barrington
has had trouble from the free line
all year. In Kansas City's Mu
nicipal auditorium in late Decem
ber, against Missouri, he missed
eight straight. And that was the
night after he had scored ten
field goals against the Kansas Ag
gies. So the Kansas mentor shakes
his head, and looks perplexed.
His team from raw material has
come a long way this season, but
he still doesn't know what to do
about those free throws.

Kappa Phi, Methodist women's
group, held pledging services for
seven coeds last Wednesday, Feb.
23. Those pledged to member
ship were Mildred Patterson, Viv

Stonecipher.
Cyclones Fall
To Sooners
In 44-30 Tilt
Oklahoma's Sooner cinched at
least a half interest in the Big
Six basketball crown by upsetting
Iowa State, 44-30, at Ames Mon
day night.
The Cyclones, who now must
defeat Kansas at Lawrence Fri
day to assure themselves of a
share of the title, battled Okla
homa on even terms through most
of the first half, but the Soon
ers grabbed the lead late in the
period and steadily pulled away
during the second half.
