Woter-Boskefboll Begins;
Delfs, Tails Delta Sigs Win
By Bock Ulin
The season's intramural water
basketball got under way Mon
day and Tuesday evening. Many
of the teams who had previously
registered for the sport must have
decided that it wasn't quite worth
a ducking for there were four
teams that forfeited their acclaim
to water fame. AGR forfeited
to Beta Sigma Psi, Sigma Chi
beat Ag Men's Club without a
splash, Beta Sigma Psi deep
water dolphins took Alpha Tau
Omega 1-0, and Beta Theta Pi
took a forfeit from Alpha Gamma
Eho in another deep water con
test. Sfgma Alpha Epsilon got all
wet as Alpha Tau Omega
splashed to a 42-13 win. It seems
that the Taus were dunking in
so many points that the score
keeper couldn't catch the swim
mers who were responsible.
Sig Eps Edge '
Sigma Phi Epsilon swam past
Sigma Nu to a 25-21 victory. It
was a close game all the way
through but Sigma Nu was un
able to douse Sig Ep's Russell as
he flipped a high of 19 points.
Next in line was Kratt, also of
the Sig Ep's with nine. The
losers' high flipper was Kaasch
with eight
Delta Tau Delta dropped their
fins in the deep to take a 22-11
chiller from the " Men's Dorm.
Johnson, the water bug for Delta
Tau Delta, hit for 13 while team
mate Hasse Brook grabbed four.
Broughton and Siders, combined,
scored for 10 of the 11 points that
the Men's Dorm got.
The final count was 21-10 as
Phi Gamma Delta stroked ahead
of Sigma ChL Bridge, of the
Phi Games, swished the nets for
14. Morrow and Brook each got
4 for the losing Sigma Chi's.
Union Romps
Student Union floated to a
27-7 win over Delta Upsilon.

Student Union jumped to a 5-2
first quarter lead then increased
the margin at half time to 15-2
and the third stanza was 21-5.
Mercier was best as he collected
12. Balderson, Kilb, and Heffel
finger all hit four. Satterfield
was high for the losers with
three.
Beta Theta Pi barely squeezed
past Phi Gamma Delta 27-25. The
Betas' ducked and dodged to a
early 9-2 lead. They remained
ahead until the third quarter
when Oldson evaded the would
be goalies and potted a basket
that put the Phi Gam's ahead
17-15. The Beta swimming at
tack was too great the final pe
riod as they forged ahead by
two points. Two boys for the
Beta's each scored eight; oddly
enough both names were An
drews. Olson dropped in 13 for
the Phi Gams.
Win Easily
Delta Tau Delta must have
held Phi Delta Theta under most
of the time for the final count
was 38-4.
Delta Sigma Phi climbed on
their sea horses and rode to a
10-3 victory over Sigma Phi Ep
silon. The Delta Sig's scored in
every period, 2, 6, 8, 10 while
the Sig Eps hit only in the third.
The Delli Peoli brothers teamed
for four apiece. Teller and Law
son bit two -and one, respective
ly, for the losers.
Illinois Stops
Columbia As
NCAA Begins
The National Collegiate Ath
letic Association's Eastern Bas
ketball Tournament proved to
be fatal to the Columbia Lions.
Illinois whacked Columbia's
unbeaten record, 79-71, in the
quarterfinals.
'St. John's sped past Connecti
cut, 63-52, in the other game.
Illinois won on the long-range
shooting of substitute Ted Beach.
He took eight shots at the Co
lumbia basket in as many min
utes and the ball went through
seven times.
His total for the evening was
22 points including ten field
goals. Sunderlage was high for
the Illini with 26 markers.
Milinas led the Columbia at
tack with 20 points on eight field
goals and four free throws.
Azary was second high with thir
teen. The defeat was the first in 23
games this year for Columbia
and broke a 31-game winning
streak that extended over a two
year period.
At Raleigh, N. C, Kentucky
had considerable difficulty with
Louisville before finally pulling
away to a 79-68 victory.
Louisville whittled Kentucky's
lead and went ahead 55-54 after
five minutes and forty-one sec
onds of the second half.
The Wildcats' star center, Bill
Spivey, fouled out midway in
the second half after being held
to ten points.
In the other game at Raleigh,
Sophomore Forward Bill Kuoy
filled in for All-American Sam
Ranzino and scored 22 points as
North Carolina State defeated
Villanova, 67-52.

Fraternity Champs Bow in
Free Scoring 72-63 Game
1S
The Geologists are the 1951
All-University basketball cham
pions. A well-rounded band of
Geologists blasted fraternity "A"
champ, Phi Delta Theta Wednes'
day night, 72-63 to take the cov
eted title.
In the highest scoring cham
pionship game in history, the
Geology men and Phi Delta' ex
changed basket for basket once
they got warmed up,
And everybody got plenty of
points. Three of the new cham
pions tallied over ten points
while four Phi Delts equalled
that feat.
After the fourth quarter got
under way, it was really no con
test at all although the Phi Delts
had not given up hope. The
Geologists were on the long end
of a 57-51 count going into the
final ten minutes and within a
minute and a half more they
had upped that score to 64-53.
Semi-Stall
Then the victors went into a
sort of semi-stall and still al
most matched the frantic Phi
Delts in points the rest of the
way out.
The Champions jumped to an
early 9-0 lead on baskets by
Gene Carter, Lee Korte and Jack
Yelkm. Tom Ledmgham finally
broke the scoring ice for the Phi
Delts with a looping hook shot
after 5:15 minutes had elapsed.
Finding their hitting eyes, the
Phi Delts rallied to a 15-11 first
quarter score on two long shots
by Dave Graef and three free
throws by Chick Battey.
The losers came into their
own the second period. With
Graef connecting on four beau
tiful long shots and Bill Farmer,
sinking three nice shots from the
corners, the Phi Delts roared in
to the lead with -only a minute
remaining.
One-Point Edge
Carter and Yelkin kept the
Geologists in the game through
out this period, getting three
two-pointers apiece. The victors
slipped two markers through the

Sportsmanship Trophy
Goes to Colorado
by Shirley Murphy
Colorado won the third annual award of the Big Seven Sports
manship Basketball trophy for 1950-5L
Jack Wheeler, originator of the idea, presented, the trophy
to H. B. Lee, Buff basketball coach. The presentation was made
at a dinner attended by Big Seven coaches and other coaches and
officials.
The winning school is determined by a late season poll of of
ficials who work Big Seven games, coaches, newspaper and ra
dio men. They vote on the conduct of players, coaches, spectators
end on campus activities which encourage the display of sports
manship. Oklahoma received the award last year and Iowa State got
the first one in 1949.
Wildcats Face
Arizona in
Opening Game
Kansas State will ne represent
ed by one of the nation's hottest
shooting and hardest running
clubs irr the NCAA western reg
ional tournament which started
Wednesday at Kansas City, but
its opening foe, Arizona, also had
a mighty potent scoring record.
The Border conference Wild
cats finished their regular sea
son with a 24-4 record and a
league total of 15-1. Kansas State,
the nation's third ranking team,
according to United Press, mowed
down 21 of 24 opponents and
ended with a 11-1 record in the
Big Seven.
Both teams set identical scor
ing records In their drive tor
the coveted NCAA tournament
berths. Arizona tallied a total of
1958 in their 28 games, the high
est in the university's history,
for a 69.9 per-game average. K
State had 1654 points for the
same average which not only was
a school record, but a Big Seven
mark as well.
Defensive Edge.
The Kansas Wildcats have the
edge, though, in defense where
they held opponents to an av
erage of 52 points per game.
Arizona foes clipped the cords for
a 54.2. average.
Coach Jack Gardner's KSC
club served notice last week that
it will make a determined bid for
the national bunting by blast
ing Illinois, winner of the Big
Ten, 91-72, in a tournament
warmup g a m e here. Eleven
K-Staters scored as Gardner
cleared his bench to keep the
game from turning into a com
plete route.

its pout-season NCAA prelimin
ary effort. The Border loop club

nets just before the half ended
to ride into the intermission one
point to the good, 34-33.
Any doubt the fans had about
the two outfits maintaining their
scoring orgy was soon dissolved
as the contenders took right up
where they left off.
Yelkin grabbed two quickies
from under the basket, while
Battey countered with a couple
of loopers. Harvey Bettenhau
sen, whose overtime shot against
Newman Club gave the Geolo
gists the right to meet the Phi
Delts, hit a nifty one-handed
push shot and Gene Carter
hooked another two-pointer but
Ledingham contributed two
fielders himself and the margin
remained the same.
Yelkin Adds Six
Yelkin was the difference in
the next three minutes as "Jump
in' Jack" netted himself six
points, two baskets from under
neath and one from the corner.
Ledingham, Farmer and Graef
each added three in that order
for the losers but Geologist Car
ter was the thorn in the bush
here as he sank three equalizers,
all beautiful shots. .
Louie Roper had a couple of
points up his sleeve just before
the end of the stanza, but Don
Mahacek had the rebuttal for
this and coughed up a couple of
his own.
Then came the fateful fourth
and the Phi Delts were licked.
Yelkin, Korte and Bettenhousen
each got a basket in a hurry and
then settled for free throws from
there on in.
Graef kept pecking at the Phi
Three Win
Trip to
Big 7 Meet
Three University of Nebraska
students will journey to Law
rence, Kansas for the Big Seven
table tennis tournament on April
6 and 7. Jack Cohen, Ed Sarki
sian. and John O'Neal were vic
torious in the round robin tourna
ment.
Jack Cohen, Table Tennis club
president, won four of his five
matches, losing only to Ed Sarki-
sian. Cohen was also winner of
the University intramural ping
pong tournament last January.
Ed Sarkisian was also victor
ious in four of his five contests.
Carl Fahrenbach was the only
player to trip Sarkisian in the
tournament.
John O'Neal took three of his
five matches, having dropped
matches to both Sarkisain and
Cohen.
The semi finals were held
March 14 and the top three men
in each bracket battled it out.
Representing the first bracket
was Cohen, Fahrenbach, and Don
Jensen. The other bracket final
ists were Sarkisian, O'Neal, and
Don Thackery. These men topped
the tournament entrant total of
17.
Kansas University will be host
for the first tournament and it is
hoped that this will become an
annual affair in the conference.
Stone Climbs
In KS Scoring
Jumpin' Jack Stone, the mus
cled Kansas State forward who
set a new school individual sin
gle game scoring record of 29
points last week against Illinois,
has moved into second place in
the scoring column.
The Los Angeles, Calif., senior
was practically unstoppable in
the 91-72 shellacking of the Big
Ten champion Illini. He hit 13
out of 20 tosses from the field
and added three free" throws to
better the old 28-point mark held
Jointly by Frank Groves and
Dave Weteherby.
Stone, who performs best when
the going is the toughest, has
steadily been improving his
shooting and is second only to
sub-guard Bob Rousey with a
45 percent ield goal average.
Rousey, who is sixth in scoring,
has hit 46 percent of all his tries
from the field.
Delt meshes in the final seven
minutes and bagged four more
points. Farmer, Roper and Bat
tey all had one more field goal
to add to the losing total but it
was to no avail.
Yelkin and Graef each led
their respective outfits in scor
ing. Yelkin topped them all
with a magnificent 29-point ef
fort while Graef 's 18 counters all
came from far out.
Gene Carter was right behind
Graef when the final buzzer
sounded. Carter wound up the
evening with a 17-point total.
Three men each tallied 12
markers for the Phi Delts. They
were Tom Ledingham, Bill Farm
er and Chick Battey. Betten
hausen of the winners was the
seventh man to garner over ten
points as he meshed 11.

Sharp Issues
Call to Freshmen
Baseball Coach Tony Sharpe
announces that an important
meeting will be held March 28
for all freshmen interested in
coming out for frosh baseball at
7:30 p.m. in the lecture room of
the Field House.
Sharpe believes that frosh par
ticipation will greatly increase a
player's ability to make the var
sity in future years.
Western Loop Frosh Eligible
The Big Ten conference has
voted in favor of allowing fresh
man to compete in varsity ath
letics, beginning Sept. 1.
On Monday the faculty repre
sentatives and athletic directors
voted at their closing two-day
session to lift the ban which had
been in effect since 1946.
In 1943 freshmen were de
clared eligible to help make tip
the manpower shortage due to
the war. The Western confer
ence's action now to retsore first-year-men
to varsity sports fol
lows along the same lines.
The suspension of the fresh
men rule was lifted to the 1951
52 period but can be continued if
the emergency calls for it. Au
thorities said male attendance at
Big Ten universities may decline
as much as 30 per cent rext fall
because of the draft of young
men Into military service.
Big: Seven
The Big Seven, the Pacific
Coast, and other major collegiate
groups have made freshmen eli
gible, and now the Big Ten is
getting into the act.
Kenneth Little, Wisconsin, fac
ulty spokesman, said athletes
who had enrolled in school the
second semester of the current
term would become eligible after
Sept 1, although they have not
completed their freshman terms.
He also said that junior college
transfers probably will be exempt
from the year's residence require
ment. The Big Ten was forced to take
this action because high school
star athletes were being attracted
by schools which had already
lifted the ban. Many prep athletes
will be good enough to step right
in and take over varsity roles
during their freshman year.
