Kappa Sigma, 38-33, in -the
miramurai DasketDaii tourna
ment last.nieht to claim the
Fraternity-A championship.
This was the third battle
between the two teams in this
year's IM tourney and the
Sig Eps won the decisive
game. After the Si? Eds had
earlier knocked the K-Sii?s
from the ranks of th unde
feated, the defending All-Uni-v
e r s i t y and Fraternity-A
chamns came back to whin
the Sig Eps, 37-30, Monday
night to make last night's
playoff necessary.
The Si? Eds went ahpad in
1 the third quarter then pro-
I fppfprf fhplr Ipnil with a final
fourth quarter bundle of bas
kets bv Honer Uehline to win
Detore approximately 150 peo

With little time remaining
in tne tnira quarter, Pete
Lage of Kaooa Sies hit a
layup for the 25th and 26th
K-Mg points. This was the
last time the Kappa Sigs
were ahead.
3-Point Play
Uheling made good on a
field goal and a free throw,
and Dick Muma sunk another
basket to make it 28-26 for
the Sig Eps.
" From then on, the Sig Eps
ran away from the defending
champs. The fourth quarter
was marked by loose play
as soon as a field goal at
tempt was made the defend
ing team would grab the ball
off the boards and race down
the floor only to have the
other team get the rebound,
and away they'd go again.
The high scorer for the
Kappa Sigs was Bob Prokop,
with 16. The Sig Eps were
paced by Lambert Sobon
with 13.

Wroblewskl (6-8) of Kansas

Gardner (6-0) of Kansas and

GARDNER, Big Eight scor-l

UNITED WE STAND
The entire academic world is agog over the success of the
Associated Colleges Plan-ACP, for short. I mean, you go to
any campus in the country these days and you will see gtudents
and faculty dancing on the green, blowing penny whistles,
grabbing each other by the elbows and yelling, "About that
ACP, Charley-like mm!"
And who can blame them? The ACP is a plan not only simply
brilliant, but also brilliantly simple. All it is, is a loose regional
federation of small colleges Let's say, for example, that in a
given region we have a group of small colleges, each with its
own academic specialty. Small College No. 1, let's say, has a fine
language department; Small College No. 2, let's say, has a fina
science department; No. 3 has a fine music department; etc., etc.
Well sir, under the ACP these various colleges federate. A
student in any one of the colleges can take courses in the spe
cialty of any of the other colleges and-here s the beauty part!
-he will receive credit for the course at his home college. Thus
lie enjoys all the advantaces of a bie univeraitv wi thru it. Irinr
the comfy coziness of a small college!
Well sir, you can see what a eood idea the ACP is. T nn.t-
fully submit, however, that iust because a thi
reason not to try to make it better. Like, for instance, Marlboro
Cigarettes. Marlboros were good from the very beginning, and
people found out quickly and sales zoomed. Rut. HiH tho m.tor.
of Marlboro say, "Okay, we've got it made. Let's relax"?
Well sir, if that's what you think, you don't know the makers!
They did not relax. They took their eood Marltiorr nrl tnt
improving them. They improved the filter, improved the blend,
improved the pack. They researched and developed tirelessly,
until today Marlboro is just about the most almimM
you can put a match to. There are, in fact, some people who
mm ivianooros so admirable they can't bear io put a match to
them. They just sit with a single Mariboro in hand and admire
it for ten, twelve years on end. The makers of Marllm f
course deeply touched by this-exoept for E. Rennie Sigafoos,
the salts manager.
But I digress. The ACP. I sav. is eood hut it. m H it.
Why should the plan be confined to small colleges? Why should
it be confined to a limited region? Why not include all collegei
and universities, big and small, wherever they are?
Let's start such a federation. It.'ii ,!! it K "r;. a
