with Baylor, with a single win
over Texas and no losses within

At Top Of Heap
Now York, Jan. 11—<(iPi—Cincin

bajl.
Tulsa turned in a 42-36 victory
over Wichita, a team which fig
ured to breeze. Wichita previously

and Oklahoma City Univ. But Ken
Dobbs held Wichita’s Star, John
Friedersdorf, to four points.
DuQuesne ended Cincinnati’s 17-
game winning streak, counting 11
from last season, 60-54, and Geor
gia Tech shattered Auburn’s eight-
game streak, 65-49.
Long Island and CCNY, ranked
third and seventh in: the A P
poll, cemented their claim to high
ranking. Long Island wipped St.
Louis, 58-42, in a Madison Square
Garden doubleheader after CCNY
had swamped West Virginia, BO
SS.
Nebraska upset Kansas, 57-56
in a big seven game.

Porkers Change Style !
Askew, upon taking the Arkan

switched the Ozark five to the
bail control system made famous
by ’ Hank Iba’s successful Okla
homa A&M Cowpokes. Reports in
dicate, however, that the. Razpr-
backs were again utilizing fafet-

Ambler will probably replace
Boigsmiller if the faster style play
is to be used by the visitors. Hujis-
peth, six-foot guard, is the ohly
Arkansasan now included in the
top ten full season scorers for the
loop, Of coupqe, the Porkers have
played fewer! games than mbsit
of their league-mates, and this
fact would naturally handicap in-
