Phi Psi, Betas Move to Berths In IM Playoffs
In yesterday's Fraternity "B" intramural football play, Phi Pi sewed up the division title by thumping ATO 15 to 0, and Beta II was assured of a playoff berth as a result of their 13-6 victory over Phi Delt. Sigma Chi won by forfeit from AEpi and DU also took a forfeit from Delta Chi.
Phi Psi 15. ATO 0
After a scoreless first half, Phi Psi broke loose for two touchdowns in the second half to win the division title. On the second play of the second half, Bob Bishop picked off a stray ATO aerial and dashed 30 yards to pay dirt.
In the fourth period, Dan Kratzer pitched a 30 yard pass to Don Adams, who made the catch in the end zone for the second touchdown. Tom Hollcraft booted the conversion. Later in the final stanza, Bishop broke through the ATO line to tag the passer behind the goal line for a safety and the final two points.
Beta 13. Pht Delt 6
Fred McColey's passes led Beta to victory as he had a hand in all the Beta scoring. In the second period, McColey touched down pass to Duke Darrell. PhDelt tied the score in the third period on a pass from Stevenson to Milledge. Beta scored the winning touchdown in the fourth period on McColey's aerial to Lonsbury.
Today's games are Battenfeld vs. Sterling Oliver, Jollifee vs. Pearson, and Oread vs. Don Henry. These games are makeup games in the Independent "A" division.
Ted Williams Praises Rule
New York — (U,P) — Ted Williams, along with virtually every other hitter in the major leagues, warmly welcomed the restoration of the sacrifice fly rule today as a surefire formula for adding "10 to 15 points" to their batting averages.
The 35-year-old Williams, who batted 407 in 37 games with the Red Sox after returning from Korea last August, hailed the rule change as a definite boon to "every hitter in the game" at his Miami, Fla., home today.
"I'd say it would increase batting averages 10 points, anyway," declared Williams, who batted 406 in 1941 and is the only active major leaguer ever to hit 400.
The rule, which credits a batter with a sacrifice rather than charging him with a time at bat after he hits a fly ball that scores a runner from third originally was adopted in 1907 and abolished in 1931. In its original form, a batter was not charged with a time at bat if he advanced a runner from any base.
Conservation Study Set
Topeka (UP) — A five member committee headed by Dr. Harold Myers of Kansas State College will look into improving and enlarging the indirect teaching of conservation in Kansas public schools. The committee, selected at a meeting called the Department of Education, includes John Bruckelman, Emporia State; Ted M. Sperr, Pittsburg State; Fred Albertson, Hays State, and Rollin Baker of the University of Kansas.
A few years before the American Revolution, a whaling brig of New Bedford, Mass., was named No Duty On Tea, says the National Geographic society.

Distance Men Go After 27th
The Kansan cross country team Friday morning will leave by plane for Norman, Okla., to face the Oklahoma Sooners that afternoon in the final dual for the Jayhawkers this season.
Coach Bill Easton's speedsters—Wes Santee, Art Dazell, Al Frame, Lloyd Koby, and Dick Wilson—will be putting their string of 26 consecutive victories on the line against the hitherto winless Sooners. The conference meet will be here Nov. 14, before the Oklahoma A&M grid game.
Notre Dame grid Coach Frank Leahy has been released from the hospital, but he won't be able to watch his Irish team play Navy tomorrow, his doctor said. The coach collapsed during the half-time of last Saturday's contest against Georgia Tech.
The Sooner fivesome of Dan Ladd, Warren Rouse, George Gilmore, Don Reed, and John Dahl, has dropped meets to Texas A&M and Oklahoma A&M, both teams KU has beaten. Ladd, a sophomore, has been OU's No. 1 man, coming in first in each meet for his team. His best time was 15:41 against Oklahoma A&M on the OU course.
While there are many reptiles in the West Indies, no poisonous snakes are found in the larger islands of Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico.

The Professor Who Couldn't Say "No"
OR...What to do when you can't afford to flunk
Once there was a Professor who was reluctant to Flunk the Team's Top Muscle-Man . . . a fullback named Printwhistle, of impressive Physical Proportions but intellectually a Lump. The Professor sought a Loophole. "Printwhistle," he said, "I am no pedant who believes that the sole purpose of education is to cram the Mind with Facts. Rather is its aim to broaden the Mind and make it more Productive. If you can come to me within 24 hours with one — just one — original and worthwhile Idca, I shall not Flunk you."
The dejected Printwhistle explained his Dilemma to his roommate. "Relax," said the latter. "Simplest thing in the world" . . . and he expounded a Stratagem.
Next morning the evidence was in,
Telegrams . . . hundreds of 'em . . . on
the Professor's desk, from practically
everybody on the Campus. All bearing
the same message: "Printwhistle must
not Flunk. Old Blackstrap needs him.
This Approach is his Idea."
Did it work? Well, there's a certain All-American named Printwhistle whose voice shakes with grateful Emotion when anyone mentions Western Union in his Presence.
When you want to Swing a Deal . . .
Telegrams work wonders. They're
grade A Date Bait, great for coaxing
cash from home, practical for arranging
anything from a Weekend to a Job
Interview. When you want to get inside
the Opponent's ten-yard line . . . let
Western Union carry the ball.
