Battalion Intramural Writer
Vein Bippert’s 50 yard runback
of a D Infantry pass proved to be
the decisive TD of the afternoon
as B Transport romped to a 6-0
win over the infantrymen in the
quarterfinals of the Intramural
playoffs yesterday afternoon.
Bippert’s interception came early
in the contest and from that point
on the TC men tried twice more
for scores but couldn’t muster
enough punch to tally.
Jerry Saunders blocked an In
fantry punt late in the first half
and' with the ball on the Infantry
10, Bill Wright tossed a pass to
Frnka in the end zone but the play
was called back for a back field
in motion penalty.
Saanders Intercepts
The Infantry’s Don Tabb tried
a flat pass from his own 10 late
in the game and again Saunders
wp,s the interference in the plans
of the “paddlefeet” as he inter
cepted. Wright attempted two
sweeps of the ends and then tried
for a field goal which sailed wide.
With only two plays remaining
in the game Tabb lobbed a long
pass which was completed to the
TC 12 yard line. The final play
of the game saw a Tabb pass sail
far over the head of its intended
receiver as the Transport squad ad
vanced into the semi-finals of the
playoffs.
A Armored also advanced into
the semi-final round of play by
edging past the E Infantry foot
ballers, 7-6.
This was one of the most thrill
ing games of the afternoon as the
two squads were very evenly

Quick Razorbacks
Beat Baylor 54-38
Waco, Jan. 15 — (TP) — Arkansas’
rangy Razorbacks hit three quick
long shots at the start of the sec
ond half then protected their lead
with a tight zone defense to beat
Baylor, 54-38, in a Southwest Con
ference basket ball game last
night.
Baylor exhibited the best defense
in the first half, holding a 14-13
first quarter margin and hanging
on to 25-24 half-time lead on the
hot shooting of John Starkey and
Ralp Johnson.
But the Hogs shot in front, 30-
25, in the first two minutes of the
last half, clung tenaciously to two
and three point margins until the
Bears started pressing them all
oyer the court in the final stages.
Then they increased their lead.

Kansas University
First On AP Poll
New York, Jan. 15—CP)—The
University of Kansas Jayhawks
received one less first place vote
than the University of Illinois, but
still managed to retain a slim lead
today as the nation’s No. 1 college
basketball team in the Associated
Press poll.
Coach F. C. (Phog) Allen’s Kan
sans, who won a 69-66 decision
over Nebraska last night, received

Illinois Number Two

78-66 last night, received 23 first
place votes and is in the No. 2 spot
with 773 points. Both of the lead
ers are unbeaten, Kansas having
won 13 and Illinois 11 games. Last
night’s games had no bearing on
the poll, which closed at noon yes
terday. / Kansas got the No. 1 place
by receiving a heavier vote for sec
ond and third place. A week ago
Kansas held a 38-point lead over
Illinois.
If You Have United Stales Series E Bonds
Maturing This Month
Keep Them!
Those Bonds Can Now Continue Earning
For You For Ten Years Longer!
C ongress has passed a law which makes it possible, now, for
your Defense Bonds to earn interest ten years longer than
originally planned—with no effort on your part.
For example, a Series E Bond which cost $18.75 in 1941
will pay $25 in 1951. But if you hold it ten extra years, it will
pay you $33.33, an average of 2.9%.
And there is nothing for you to do. You simply keep your
bonds as you have been keeping them.
You may still redeem any Series E Bond at any time after
you’ve owned it for 60 days. But holding your bonds is the
smart tiring.
So if you have bonds which are coming due this month,
remember the new money-making chance your Government
is giving you. Just hold onto your bonds and they’ll go on
earning for you. In the meantime keep up your regular sav
ing with more U. S. Defense Bonds — through the Payroll
Savings Plan where you work or the Bond-A-Month Plan
where you bank.
If you want to be paid your interest as current income—
The new law also allows you to exchange your Series E Bonds, in blocks
of $500 or more, for Special Series G Bonds which pay interest semi
annually at the rate of 2Vi% per year. For full details, ask at any Federal
Reserve Bank or Branch.
look how your maturing bonds go on earning under the new law!

He’s far too sophisticated to be amused by
slap-stick comedy! From the minute the curtain
went up, he knew that you just can’t judge
cigarette mildness by one fast puff or a single, swift
sniff. Those capers may fool a frosh — but
he's been around and he knows! From coast-to-coast,
millions of smokers agree: There’s but one
true test of cigarette mildness!
It's the sensible test... the 30-Day Camel
Mildness Test, which simply asks you to try Camels
as your steady smoke, on a day-after-day,
pack-after-pack basis. No snap judgments! Once
you’ve tried Camels for 30 days in your “T-Zone”
(T for Throat, T for Taste), you’ll see why ...
After all the Mildness Tests...
