Wings To Meet Alexander, La.
Quintet At Coliseum Tuesday
BY CHUCK. PETERSON
Capt. Stanley Hall's Lincoln Army Air Field Wings
will close their home season this Tuesday night when they
tackle the Alexandria, La., Field five in the first game of
the Second Army Air Force basketball championship at
stake. The Wings are the Northern division champions.
Only this game will be playeci'-
in Lincoln, with the second game
scheduled for Alexandria, on Fri
day, March 9, and the third, if
needed, on the following Saturday
on the same Louisiana court.
Alexandria won the Southern
division crown by taking Biggs
Field of El Paso, Tex'., in two
straight games, 51 to 40 and 50
to 44.
The Wings were declared the
champions of the Northern divi
out of three games to gain the
Northern division finals.
The Alexandria five has won
45 games during the year while
losing live during the same
period.
Captain Hall said that the ailing
Vic Krafft had rounded back into
shape again and that his cut eye
no longer bothers him.

Cyclones Nab
Big Six Title
Iowa State's Cyclones came into
the second half red-hot and blew
the Kansas Jayhawks clear out of
reach of the Big Six title Friday
night as they scored a decisive
61-39 victory over the Kansas
squad. Last year the Cyclones
shared the conference champion
ship with Oklahoma but a record
of 8 victories and two defeats
gave the Iowans plenty of room in
this year's standings.
Another championship was an
nexed in the game as little Jim
Myers, Cyclone forward, gained
the conference scoring crown.
Myers total for the season was
131 points, seven higher than Art
Peterson, gangling Nebraska cen
ter. At halftime the Towans held a
slim 27-21 lead at halftime, get
ting the jump on the sunflower
staters from the opening gun. KU
had taken a 2-0 lead following
the tip but went scoreless for
four minutes and Iowa State
jumped at the chance and soon
had the ball game in their laps.
Kansas was always in striking
distance during the first half but
never after the fiast basket were
they able to tie the Cyclones.
The red hot attack of the Cy
clones came at the start of the
second halt when they put in 13
points to the Jayhawks two and
held a 40-23 lead with seven min
utes gone in the half. Later in
the gams KU came as near as
10 points to the Iowans but no
closer.
Big Bob Mott led the Iowa State
scoring list as the tall boy knocked
in . six field goals and six out of
six free throws for 18 points. Bill
Block, veteran defensive star was
second in line as he tallied 12
counters, one more than Myers.
Peck was high for Kansas scor
ers with 10 points.

Dean Undertakes
Registration Task
After 50 Years
ACP. A worried frown ruffled
the good Dean's forehead as he
sat at the long wooden table in
the University of Wisconsin Arm
ory carefully filling out registra
tion cards. "I sure hope I didnt
flunk my freshman year, he said,
but there was a misleading
twinkle in the corner of his right
eye which denied his sincerity.
And well he might twinkle, for
he was registering for the first
time in 50 years, but not for him
self. A week ago freshman Harry
Watt, Jr., came to see Dean Scott
H. Goodnight on a matter of ex
treme urgency. He had not been
formally graduated . from high
school and couldn't he please go
back and attend the ceremony?
But who would register for him?
"Why, I will," said the good Dean.
Thoroughly enjoying himself,
Dean Goodnight sat among the
paraphernalia of exam-asphyxi
ated students and filled out good
ness knows how many Henry
Walt, Fr.'s on goodness knows
how many little white cards.
