Watson, Sedlacek
Score Ctnocfcouts
By Bob Holland.
Third round knockouts by
Wayne Watson and John Sedlacek
highlighted the hot and heavy ac
tion seen at the intramural box
ing semi-finals in the Coliseum
ring last night. Sixteen contestants
traded leather in decisions, TKO's
and knockouts, to get slots in the
final bouts next week.
Sid Wells decisioned Bob Beck
in a free swinging featherweight
bout to open the evening. Then Del
Roth, in the night s smoothest ex
hibition of boxing outclassed Jim
Welsh in a straight round in the
135 pound division.
On the welterweight docket.
Wayne Watson, probably the hard
est hitting: man for his sixe, in the
tourney, swung- for two rounds at
taller Ed McElligott. Finally, in
the third round, he caught the tall
boy with a series of lefts and
rights that brought a TKO. Closest
event on the card was the other
welter match between John Ei
nung and Hal Haldeman. Both
traded hard left jabs and in
punches for all six minutes, but
Haldeman eked out a decision.
In the 160 pound division, hard
hitting Gould Flagg pounded Neils
Johnson for two rounds, to take
a decision despite Johnson's last
round barrage that had him grog
gy. Then Bob Lipps' jarring jabs
and aggresive moving in earned
him a unanimous decision over
Bill Sloan.
John Sedlacek and Stan Daf-
fer, heavy artillery boys, put on
the slugfest of the evening. After
exchanging haymakers with Daf
fer for half the bout, Sedlacek be
gan to hurt his opponent, and he
caught him coming off the ropes
in the third with a right that end
ed the fight. In the second heavy
weight pairing, Mac Robinson won
by decision over Bill Matteson,
matches, and Charlie and Dick
Miller judged the contestants.
I he Jightheavy matches were
postponed because of lack of time,
and will be held tonight or Tues
day.
The winners will meet in the fi
nals next Tuesday at 8, and the
awards will be presented to the
champions after the bouts.

Husker Brown
Named to Big 6
2nd Team Spot
The champion Kansas univer
sity cagers and the runner-up
Oklahoma Sooners each placed
two men on the Associated Press
all-Big Six basketball team for
the 1945-46 season.
Charlie Black and Otto Schnell-
bacher for the Jayhawks and Paul
Courty and Jack Landon for Ok
lahoma teamed with Bob Petersen
of Iowa State to compose the first
five.
One Nebraska player, Joe1
Brown, was named to a guard
spot on the second team, while
Don Barry, Bob Korte and Leo
Schneider received honorable
mention.
Landon Only Repeater.
The rugged Sooner defenseman,
Landon, was the only repeater on
the squad from last year's selec
tions, while Black was an out
standing performer on the 1942,
1943 and 1946 quintets.
In addition to Brown on the
second team, the AP listed Dave
Weatherby and Jay Payton of
Kansas State, Owen Peck of Kan
sas and Jim Stark of Iowa State.
Missouri was the only confer
ence school which was not repre
sented on the first and second
teams.
Brown was a Nebraska stand
out all season, and he closed the ,
campaign against Kansas State y
with a 20 point performance. A J
speedy ball-hawk and an alert
defensive man, the Akron, Ohio,
NROTC player was high scorer
for the Scarlet this season and
placed tenth in the Big Six scor
ing race with an average of 8.8
points per game.
Indicative of the KU domina
tion of Big Six play was the fact
that in addition to three men on
the first two teams, three other
Jayhawks were named in the
honorable mention list. This gave
"Phog" Allen's crew a total of six
places on the roll of outstanding
performers.
Catherine of Russia had a horse
which she called, "Butch."
"Wigwam" is the Southern In
dian word for a heated teepee.
