Stephenson, Battenfeld, DU Delts, Phi Delt Win in IM
Intramural touch football continued yesterday with two independent and three fraternity "A" games played in the two divisions. All five games were completed despite a threat of rain which has delayed the schedules three times this year.
Stephenson 9. Sterling-Oliver 6
Early in the first quarter Al Levin passed to Ivan Watkins to give Stephenson its one touchdown, with the extra point added by Dale Moore on a pass from Levin. Sterling-Oliver scored on a pass from Chuck Winters to Bob Culler but failed to further penetrate the Stephenson defense for the remainder of the game. Stephenson added two more points to its victory margin on a safety.
Battenfeld 18, Pearson 0
Despite three touchdowns that were called back, Battenfeld scored the only shutout of the afternoon by topping Pearson 18-0. The three TD's came as the result of the passing of Battenfield's Jack Jones who threw accurately to Bob Smith, Preston Arnold, and Don Terpen. Pearson was unable to score during the contest as they faced a strong defensive eight.
Phi Delt 39. Lambda Chi 6
Phi Delt 39, Lambda Chi 6
Six Phi Delta Theta touchdowns,
a safety, and one point after touch-
down proved to be too much for
the Lambda Chi Alpha team as they
were defeated 39-6. Phi Delt's Bob Richards had a field day as he scored
three touchdowns and passed for
two more. L. A. Hollinger passed all
three times to Richards and also hit
Mike Chalfant for an extra point.
Richards passed to Don Baldwin and
Fritz Heath for two scores,
and Heath grabbed a stray Lambda Chi
pass to score another TD. Mich
Denny intercepted a pass and ran
twenty yards for the lone Lambda
chi touchdown.
Delts 20, AKL 13
In a closely fought contest the Delts managed to outscore Alpha Kappa by one touchdown, 20-13. AKL scored a TD late in the fourth quarter which would have tied the game, with the conversion, but the play was called back. For the victors Jim Devilin passed to John Hughes and Jim Cox for scores, and Devilin caught a pass from Richard Pieta for the third TD. Ray Birk passed to Harold Burgsten and Richard Lee for the AKL scores with Neil Nelson receiving for the extra point.
DU 18. Sig Ep 6
DU 18, Sig Ep 6
Delta Upsilon outscored the Sigma Phi Epsilon team by two touchdowns to win a fraternity game,
18-6. Bob Kaak passed for all of the DU's scores as he found Bob Boyer, Rocky Stonestreet, and Tom Emery open for the touchdowns.
The one Sig Ep tally came on a pass from Ron Baker to Jack Beverly.

New York — (U.P.)— Duke was named today a six-point favorite over resurgent Army in one of Saturday's biggest intersectional football games, while Wisconsin was a seven-point choice over Purdue in one of the biggest conference games.

Badgers,Duke Picked to Win
These odds typified a forecast of generally close games this week by a national odds-making syndicate. But Oklahoma, the nation's top-ranked team, was figured as such a prohibitive pick over Kansas that no odds were issued on that game.
Crystal Cafe 609 Vt.
The syndicate made its selection of Duke over Army despite a notation in its opinion that the Cadets are "gaining momentum" since their opening-game upset by South Carolina. The group also predicted that the Wisconsin-Purdue clash, one of the year's biggest in the Big Ten, figures to be "a truly great ball game."
Television fans are in for a treat this week, for the Southern California-Oregon game was rated even money. Two other games were placed in the same category-Marquette-Holy Cross and Alabama-N Tennessee.
Mexico City — (U.P.)— Defending champion Tony Trabert of Cincinnati, Ohio, was favored to defeat surprising Mario Llamas, 22-year-old Mexican champion today in the final round of men's singles in the Pan-American tennis championships.
Trabert Favored To Defeat Llamas
But Llamas has already twice come through in this tournament as an underdog to beat U.S. champion Vic Seixas in the quarter-finals, and former U.S. champion Art Larsen in the semi-finals.
Trabert won his semi-final match yesterday from Swedish champion Sven Davidson, 9-7, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. The first set of the match was won by he披ers but its competition was postponed until yesterday because of rain.
Trabert, 1953 U.S. champion, showed his top form only in the closing games of the match.
Wichita Goes Football Mad
Kansas City, Mo. —(U.P.)— The gloom may never have been thicker at Lawrence-home of the University of Kansas—but the joy never more bountiful in Wichita where the citizenry has gone football mad over Jack Mitchell's Wichita University Wheatshockers.
And it's all because of a 23-13 Wichita triumph over Oklahoma A&M—first for Wichita over the Cowpokes since 1938.
Few could appreciate at the season opening why there was an open date this week for Wichita, approaching the mid-way point of the 1954 gridiron campaign.
But those fans didn't have the vision, nor were they aware of the well-conceived plans of the 30-year-old Wichita coach.
"We never needed an open date like we need this one," Mitchell said following the cherished triumph over A&M. "The squad, the guard, has gone crazy. I never saw such enthusiasm. It's overwhelming."
But Mitchell said it was all misplaced iov.
"We aren't nearly the team that we looked like against A&M" he said. "We still have Houston, Tulsa, and Detroit to play before the Valley race is over and every one of them will be touch."
It might be mentioned that Mitchell once was an all-American quarterback for Oklahoma and Coach Bud Wilkinson, a mentor whose top-grade pessimism is equalled in consistency only by the top-grade performances of his teams.
Mitchell, it appears, picked up football know-how and some psychology, too, from his famous tutor.
"We're still two years away," Mitchell said. "We're heavy with sophomores, but light on physical power. Only 34 players and just five of these over 200 pounds."
With that, the Wichita coach turned his attention to individual members of his squad-players personally responsible for the upset of A&M.
He spoke of Jack Conway, sophomore quarterback, and of end Neil Sikes, guard Ralph Denton, and center Jack O'Toole.
Conway, 6 foot 3 inches, and 195 pounds, is No. 1 in total offense in the Valley conference. He has completed 12 of 29 passes for 356 yards and five touchdowns, and has moved the ball 505 yards in 55 plays in four games.
Buck McPhail, Oklahoma fullback, gained 215 yards rushing against Kansas in 1951.

Lincoln, Neb. —(U.P.)—Pressure mounted in the Nebraska Cornhusker camp today as fans grumbled audibly about eight fumbles Nebraska made against Kansas State last Saturday.
NU Fumbling Criticized
Coach Bill Glassford stressed ball handling again today, but pointed out that the split-T is conducive to wide-open play and many bobbles.
Glassford hinted strongly there would be some major lineup changes before the team meets Oregon State here this week, but he kept them to himself.
Columbia, Mo. —(U.P.) Coach Don Faurot worked his Missouri university football squad for three rugged hours yesterday and promised more of the same today as he prepared the team for its encounter here Saturday against Indiana.
Faurot moved Howard Robertson into the starting left tackle spot, replacing co-captain Charles Bull.
Manhattan —(U.P.)— The Kansas State Wildcats took their nnaal drills today before the Tulsa game Saturday and Coach Bill Meek drove them hard.
Meek again drilled his first string units against Tulsa offensive and defensive plays.
The coach paid particular attention to the backfield, grooming players to new positions after recent changes.
Boulder, Colo. —(U,P)— Colorado gained a tailback but lost its coach temporarily, yesterday.
Homer Jenkins was released from the University hospital with a stomach condition cleared. But Coach Dallas Ward had to take to his bed again because of a chronic back injury
