GETS EVEN BREAK i IN ALL RESPECTS FAYETTEVILLE, Ark, April 3. —Three of the seven Southwest conference basketball ished the season with a percent- age of .500, but the University of | Arkansas was, the champion “breaker-even” of them all. The lanky Razorbacks split each of their six series. That would |not have been so unusual if they ;h:\d played each of their rivals “home and home” but the Hogs played two-game series with three .schools here and the same number of sets on the road. | Nor can the explanation be of- | fered that Arkansas managed to win from the stronger teams at home but lost to the weaker teams on the road. The Texas Aggies, who placed second, were met at College Station and Rice, which tied for third, was played at Houston. Arkansas also won one of the two games Texas Christian lost all Babe Ruth, aged #rty, starting|season and lost one of the two his fifteenth season with the New|games which Baylor won all sca- York Yankees first in the major leagues has set 100 games as his objective with a possibility of appearing in 154. | son.

Texas A. & M. in second place finished only two games ahead of Southern Method- i ist in six. 'HERE’S ANOTHER | ILLUSTRATION OF ‘ BONTHRON DRIVE NEW YORK, April 3.—Various ands of spectators who have thrilled to his powerhouse finishes will testify to the remarkable fin-| ishing kick of Princeton's Bill| Bonthon, but there also is some, statistical data to prove it. When Bonny nipped Gene Venz- ke in the last quarter-lap to win the I.

But unofficial stop watch-hold-| ers caught him at 4:14. | That means Bonthon traveled| those 119.6 yards at the rate of 721 yards a second—a’ pace that| would carry him a quarter-mile in| 61.6 seconds! And that, piled on top of a 300- yard sprint he had put on to cut down the 30-yard advantage Venz- ke held at one stage!
