16 Basketball SM East Loses Punch As Season Nears End The Lancers slowed down during the last month of the season, winning only two of their last five games. East traveled to Washington to hand the Wildcats a 48-41 defeat. Junior Phil Fields led the Lancers with 10 points, as half the points for the blue and black came on charity tosses. Next the Lancers handed the SM South Raiders their third loss in as many meetings of the teams. The Raiders were beaten by a margin of 13 points, 57-44, the biggest difference of the three matches. The players from Topeka West proved to be unfriendly hosts when they defeated SM East 46-51. The Lancers played ex- cellent defense, but were unable to mount a sufficient scoring attack. SM West continued to jinx the Lancers, but this time they only required one over- time, winning 68-75. Though the Lancers had beaten the Lawrence Lions once before by 15 points, it was not evident in the Regional qualify- ing game. The Lions stunned everyone, winning 61-65, while playing almost flawless basketball. Although a final record of 11-9 was not expected, SM East played exciting ball. 1.

Boys' State Governs The first week of June is traditionally the time of Boys' State, an experience in government sponsored by the American Legion. Representatives from Kansas high schools travel to K.U. where they organize and control an actual communi- ty. Population of the mock state is divided equally into Nationalist and Federalist parties. Each party enters a member on the ticket to compete for varying levels of office. Once established, this year's Boys' State government debated and passed legislation concerning education, welfare, tax reform, and crime. After experiencing the complexity of effective government new objectivity was used in analyzing the faults of the system. Boys' State delegates learned to utilize their citizenship in channels of reform. T It i i i 1 i i l l -i 'I T Qffff.-QW, ' , t - if iff Bud Titus talks about Boys' State. i 1
