Guard Joe Brown netted three points and Retherford added a lay up shot in a matter of 20 sec onds time to dampen all Jack rabbit hopes for a win. y Whitehead's strong under-tne-basket play showed up as one bright spot for the Huskers. who generally were sluggish on the floor. Mosser scored 11 points 101 second high Husker scoring honors followed closely by Retherford, who netted five fielders for ten tallies. Cops High Honors. High individual scoring laureis went to South Dakota's James Schmidt, who whipped 18 points through the nets. The shifty Jack rabbit forward kept the visitors in the running with his dangerous under basket playing, but was handicapped after being chargeo with four personal fouls afterll minutes of the first half. ion Mohlenhoff, Schmidt's running mate, helped the losers' cause with 11 counters.

Kansas Teams Lead Circuit In Cage Race Big Seven basketball is pretty much of a Kansas affair, as Kan sas university and Kansas State continue to lead the pack. The Jayhawks hold a 3-0 mark, while Wildcats have won four and lost none. However, only Colorado has been definitely counted out of the running. Iowa State, with a 3-2 record, and Oklahoma, 2-2, remain in the championship running along with the Cornhuskrs, who hold one victory against two defeats. Missouri hit its top form Satur day when the Tigers stopped favored Oklahoma, 49-43, at Co lumbia. Iowa State squeezed past Colorado 39-38 on the Boulder court. The Cyclones had to pro duce nine points in the last two minutes to earn the decision. The Buffs will attempt to even the score when they travel to Ames Saturday. Buffs Scare Wildcats. Kansas State had to turn on all their power Monday night to down Colorado at Boulder. With ten minutes of play remaining, the Buffs pulled to within two points of the Wildcats. But the Manhat tan boys cut the rally short and won, 50-44. Clarence Brannum and Harold Howey led the Weld cats to their fourth straight cir cuit win. Brannum took scoring honors with 14 points. George Sauer Leaves Kansas To Boss Navy George Sauer, former Univer sity of Nebraska All-American v fullback, has accepted the posi tion of head football coach at the United States Naval Academy. Sauer resigned as head coach at the University of Kansas to ac cept a four-year contract as the Middie coach. Bud Wilkenson, present Univer sity of Oklahoma football coach, was considered for the post but took himself out of the picture early last week. Sauer's resignation came as a tremendous blow to the Kansas coaching staff, for while losing one of the finest young coaches in the country, they also stand to lose the services of Back field Coach Vic Bradshaw and Line Coach Robert Ingalls. These two may assist Sauer at his new post. Athletic Director E. C. Quigley of Kansas stated that it was not a question of salary that caused the change, but rather a better chance for advancement. Sauer will have considerable freedom in his new job as far as the selection of his principal as sistants. While serving as the Jayhawk coach, the former Husker star led his teams to two consecutive Big Six co-championships.
