Touchdown IV Still Missing-Ha! Ha!
MANHATTAN—Touchdown IV. Kansas State's wildcat mascot, has been swined—and is still missing.
KU students are suspected of planning and executing this misdemeanor which is considered a cardinal sin on the K-State campus.
A substitute wildcat had to be found for Saturday's homecoming festivities with Oklahoma.
The lock on Touchdown's cage in Sunset Park Zoo was broken sometime Wednesday night. The catnappers chased the wildcat into the small cage that is used to transport her to and from the football games, and made off with cage and cat.

State College, Wichita University, Coffeyville Junior College, and the University were present.
The Rev. Gordon Dorian of Wichita was guest speaker Saturday night at the banquet. The toastmaster was William H. Preston of the Baptist student department, Baptist Sunday School Board, Nashville, Tenn.
The convention voted to hold its annual spring retreat April 13-14, 1956 at Camp Fellowship, outside of Wichita. Emporia State Teachers College was selected to be host to next fall's convention.
KU Engineers Visit Forbes, Fort Riley
Members of the Society of American Military Engineers Friday watched concrete being poured in the construction of a 22-mile long runway at Forbes Air Force Base in Topeka. The field trip also included a trip to Fort Riley as guests of the Corps of Engineers.
At Forbes, the group saw the building of two types of aircraft hangers, "nose" and "base." "Nose" hangers are large enough for all but the tails of two B-47 heavy bombers.
At Fort Riley, a new permanent hospital, being constructed at a cost of $5,500,000 came under close
inspection of the visitors. The hospital will house 250 beds when completed, but will be built so that it can easily handle 500 beds.
Kenneth L. Cox, Leland, Iowa, junior, said a new area known as Custer Hill is being developed at the fort to make facilities available for the addition of another division when completed.
