Claims of Phillips.
Phillips claims TO the stnte cham
pionship consist OF comparative
scores In Interstate games, phillips
beat Haskell 81 to 7, being tho only
eleven to score that many points on
tho Indians. Haskell beat the Okla
homa Aggies 10 tp--a This gives
Phillips u gS-point margin over the
Aggies and as Kendall was tied by
tho Aggiesf&slves phillips that num-
ber OF points over Kendall on the
basis of Haskell, Aggic, Phillips and
Kendall counts Phillips and the
University OF Oklahoma each won
from Texas by 10 to 0 scores, which
gives tho former a fg-polnt adean-
tage over the Oklahoma Aggics, on
tho basis OF Texas and Oklahoma
university, Oklahoma Aggies and
Phillips scores, and therefore gives
Phillips 20 points to their credit
over Kendall, via the dope on tho
games mentioned I'm this sentence.
Phillips claims tho state cham
pionship Because Kendall has re
fused To play a post season game. II
IL desirable that post-season games
be played when mpionships can
be settled only In that manner. but
Il IL always within the rights ~ a
school to decline a post season game,
