Missouri Quintet Upsets
Iowa State in
By UNITED PRESS
Iowa State, the team that upset
Kansas, gagged today on a dose
of its own medicine.
Just w. "" Cyclones hall a
chance to tie Kansrfor the Big
Seven lead, they themselves were
upet, 69-66, in overtime Thurs
day night on their home court
by Missouri in a battle that fea
tured a post-game demonstra
tion by Cyclone fans.
So instead of being knotted
with Kansas 3-1 at the top of the
ladder, Iowa State is down in a
tie for third place at 2-2 and is
left to worry about how the loss
will affect the No. 4 national
ranking it achieved by the Kan
sas upset of a week ago.
Gary Thompson, the five-foot
eight-inch whiz who sparked
Iowa State's big win last week,
almost saved its bacon Thursday
night when his hook shot pro-

Mick Talks
About Golf
This Spring
By UNITED PRESS
A vision of Mickey Mantle
playing golf all spring instead of
tuning up his home run bat
haunted the New York Yankees
today along with that picture of
Don Larsen tending bar instead
of pitching.
"I may be around this vicinity
playing golf all spring," said
Mantle with a grin when he
stopped at Tulsa, Okla., Thurs
day. This latest word from the Yan
kees' holdout - in - chief comes
right on the heels of Larsen's
crack in San Diego, Calif., that
he "may end up tending bar" if
the Yankees don't meet his re
quest for a 527,500 salary. Neith
er is expected to give Yankee
General Manager George Weiss
anything to laugh about.
Mantle, who is asking for
$65,000 to more than double his
1955 salary, is due for another
visit to New York next week for
a banquet, and he and Weiss are
expected to get together then to
discuss golf, springtime in Okla
home and $65,000.
Minor Action
While Mantle and Larsen nee
dled Weiss from long distance,
there was minor action in the
contract signing market Thurs
day. The Pittsburgh Pirates boost
ed their total under contract to
25 with signed pacts from catch
ers Danny Kravitz, who is now
leading the Dominican Winter
league in home runs, and Dick
Rand, who hit .278 for Roches
ter and was acquired from St.
Louis in a winter deal. The Pi
rates said the team will open
spring training at Fort Myers,
Fla., Feb. 28, with 56 players in
uniform.
The Chicago Cubs gained
their 17th and 18th signers in
outfielders, Walt Moryn, a .285
hitting with 23 homeri, and Jim
King, a .249 batsman.
Vieira Moves Up
In Hoop Scoring
New York (U.R) Florinda
(Porky) Vieira, Quinnebaug
(Conn.) college's five-foot, six
inch star, made the big news in
small college basketball today
by moving into third place in
individual scoring with 100
points in his team's last two
games and a 31.4-point average
for eight games.
Vieira advanced from 14th to
third after scoring 100 points
in two . games.
Ken Hammond of West Vir
ginia Tech remained in first
place although his average slip
ped from 35.0 to 33.6. Joe Miller
of Alderson-Broaddus, another
West Virginia school, moved
from third to second with a 32.8
point average in NCAA statis
tics which included Jan. 19
games.
Floyd Patterson
Fighter of Year
New York (U.R) Heavy
weight champion Floyd Patter
son established a precedent when
he was honored as "Fighter of
the Yar" Thursday night at the
annual dinner of the New York
Boxing Writers association.
Only three years ago, the
Brooklyn youth was named
"Rookie of the Year" by the
same group. It marked the first
time in the history of the as
sociation that a fighter won both
awards.
Patterson also received Ring
Magazine's jewel-studded belt
during the dinner.

Is That So?
While driving through inow
covered country, did you realize
that it's no trick at all to spot
the barns with animals inside?
If the roof is completely cov
ered with snow, chances are
there are no animals inside; if
it lacks snow, it is full of an
imals whose body heat has
caused the snow to melt.
For that matter, those long
icicles dangling from your roof
1-24-57
may look very pretty but broth
er they're a sign of heat leaking
through your attic. Better get
that roof insulated for next
winter: each one of those super
long, jobs may be costing you
around five bucks for a frozen
trickle. . .
Airplanes fly slower through
cold weather because cold air
is denser and harder .to "push
through." Those airplane records
are usually made in the summer
months over the heat of the
desert during the middle of the
day. Incidentally, the best time
to practice take-offs and land
ings for a beginner is during
mornings and afternoons when
the sun is low to avoid midday
air bumpiness and make slower
landings and takeoffs. About 10
hours' slower.
In these days when we discuss
billions with an easy flip of the
tongue, it might be well to re
evaluate our conceptions. Just
what does a billion mean? Pile
a billion new one-dollar bills
and it will make a sixand-half
mile high stack! Or, place a
billion kitchen matches side by

fornia across our country 897,

Constantly Winter
At six-and-a-half miles up
to the top of that stack of a
billion dollar bills the season
is constantly winter and all
cloud form is composed of tiny
ice crystals. Sound heavy? Well,
heavier things float, too. A good
share of the dust in our homes
is meteor dust. And that's mostly
iron.
Ever wonder why snow around
a city melts quicker than snow
on, country roads and hills. It's
because city snow is dirtier. The
very whiteness of snow protects
it against midday sun the
white reflecting the rays with
out absorbing heat. In the city,
the soot and traffic dirt does not
reflect the rays so well, hence
the absorbed heat makes the
snow melt more quickly.
Even though the air around
you may be perfectly still, over
head a 300-mile-an-hour wind
may be raging this minute. It's
the jetstream a high-speed rope
ot swiftly-moving air embedded
in the prevailing west-to-east
wind flowing at an elevation of
about 30.0Q0 feet. Now, during
winter, it wanders between 30
to 50 degrees north latitude on
its way around the earth. (In
summer, it follows the birds
north, hovering at around 55
degrees latitude.) Airplane pilots
finding its core can almost
double their ground speed, fly
ing east that is.
During sudden winter changes
in weather, old houses tend to
creak. If yours does, don't wor
ry: it's not defect in the timbers
it's simply the natural breath
ing of old wood. Wood you know
reacts to weather warping, con
tracting, expanding, and breath
ing with changes in humidity
and temperature.
Look To On Side
Want to improve your night
vision? Then don't look squarely
at the object you want to see
just to one side of it.
Human eyes have two sets of
nerves, one for night vision, and
the other for daytime seeing.
Daytime sight, explains Eric
Sloane the weatherman, is like
a narrow flashlight beam, while
night sight sees in a wide scope
all around that beam. So if you
stare at an object after dark,
you are forced to use the nar
row beam which doesn't work
at night and the object will
disappear. If you like, step out
side and try it tonight. Go into
the dark and pick some faint
star. Stare at it and it'll disap
pear. Then look just to one
side of it, and it will reappear,
even brighter than before. Con
vinced? All right, then you're
ready to go 'possum huntin'.
