Page 4 University Daily Kansan Friday, Oct. 2, 1953 Jayhawks to Try For First Victory Playing at practically full strength, the Jayhawkers should be able to notch their first victory of the season tomorrow against Iowa State. The Cyclones, with a 1-1 record, will probably put on quite a passing show, however, and the Jayhawk pass defense will have to be on its toes. Cyclone quarterback Bill Plantan will probably throw more passes against the youthful Jayhawks than they faced in their other two games put together. Plantan is third in Big Seven passing with three completions out of 15 tries for 102 vards Kansas has not faced a real aerial threat to date, with TCU throwing only four passes and UCLA attempting seven. The Jayhawks, who have been pretty ineffective to date in passing, have been working on that problem all week and may come up with a much better aerial game. Iowa State will be handicapped to some extent by the loss of their No 1 ground gainer, Dick Cox, who suffered a severely sprained ankle in the Cyclones contest last week against Northwestern. His spot will be filled by Bruce Alexander, a highly regarded 185-pound sophomore. Iowa State opened their season this year by beating South Dakota 35-0 and losing to strong Northwestern teams at Eastston last week by the same score. Kansas will be minus the services of only one man, Frank Cindrich, veteran right half. Cindrick missed the UCLA game because of a lame knee suffered in the TCU game, and probably won't be able to play. The Jayhawkers are smarting under two consecutive defeats, and are cagely looking forward to a victory.

This will be the 32nd game between the Cyclones and Jayhawks in a Mississippi holding a 17-11 lead in the season, which led to 1888 There were three ties. The last Kansas loss to the Cyclones was in 1949 when Iowa State won 19-6 in Memorial stadium. The game played here two years ago was a thriller. The Cyclones led 26-7 in the second quarter, only to lose 53-33 when Jerry Robertson led a spirited comeback, throwing three touchdown passes. Last year at Ames the Jayhawks were on the long end of a 43-0 score. Norman — (U.P.) — If the Oklahoma Sooners blink their eyes a bit in the daylight when they play Pittsburgh and blower Blame it on Oklahoma's heat wave. Sooners Shun Day Practice The Sooners have been practicing under lights the last two nights, trying to avoid the 90-degree temperatures—the same kind they played in last Saturday when Notre Dame came to town. Coach Bud Wilkinson ran his club through another strenuous offensive-defensive workout at Owen field last night, trying to guard against a letdown in the Pitt game after the big buildup for Notre Dame. Wilkinson was using Ray Little-john, whom he picked out for special praise for his work against the Irish, as first-string fullback last night, along with sophomore Bob Burris. This led to some speculation that he may intend to play last week's starting fullback, Max Boydston, at end against Pitt. Boydston played end last year. Paul Cameron, UCLA's all-American tailback who scored two touchdowns in the Bruins' 19-7 victory over the Jayhawks, remarked after the game that . . . "Kansas' backs may be young, but they are fast and hard-running. They won't stay green long." Someone Having A Birthday? Send A Book THE BOOK NOOK 1021 Mass.

Only Oklahoma team with Pittsburgh was in Saturday's non-conference bracket as the Big Seven got down to league business. Bv UNITED PRESS Nebraska will meet Kansas State at Manhattan. Missouri is scheduled to mix with the Colorado Buffs at Boulder. At Lawrence it'll be Iowa State and Kansas. Colorado, only unbeaten team among the Big Seven's clubs, has won the last 12 in a row at home, and Don Faurot of Missouri, United Press coach of the week, expected to encounter real trouble. Colorado opened the season with a surprise win over Washington and then took Arizona, while Missouri is 1-1 as the result of a loss to Maryland and an upset win over Purdue. Iowa State was not expected to have the guns to beat the Kansans, though the Jayhawks have an 0-2 record. Iowa State thumped South Dakota to open the season and then bowed to Northwestern, while Kansas dropped decisions to TCU and UCLA. A third conference game was expected to find Nebraska a relatively easy winner over Kansas State. Nobody could blame Oklahoma if it suffers a let-down against Pittsburgh. The Sooners dropped a thriller to Notre Dame last week. The game is scheduled at Pittsburgh. Game of Week May Decide Crown Two Kansas high school football teams not often in the state spotlight clash in the game of the week today. Conference play throughout the state dominates the schoolboy gridiron activities, but another outlawing effort is underway. -Tomeka at Wichita North tonight The capital city Troians, one of the classiest clubs in the state after two convincing victories, meet a team which habitually has been hard for them to handle. The North Redskins this year, however, began with two losses. Wichita West, the new powerhouse in the Ark Valley league, seeks a third straight victory at the expense of Hutchinson. Arkansas City, also highly ranked in the valley circuit, has a league foe in Winfield. In the Northeast, the favored Lawrence Lions, one-point losers last week to Topeka, play Atchison, which was a fine team last year but seems substantially weaker this season. Wyandotte, seemingly the best in the Kansas City area, should be capable of taking care of Leavenworth. Dodge City, its long string of victories snapped last week by Hays Cadets, is given a good chance of starting another streak in its game with Hays.

It was only the fifth Yankee hit of the game but it was the big one. The Dodgers tried vainly to battle back in the ninth but Ed Lopat, the star Yankee lefhander, closed it out to preserve his triumph by retiring Duke Snider on a ground ball with two out and two on. Then with two out in the eighth, and Hank Bauer who had singled on first base, Mantle got hold of a 2-0 pitch and drilled it into the same sector—although this one was well up into the seats. With the Dodgers in front 2-1 Billy Martin, hero of yesterday's opening 9-5 Yankee victory, lined one of Roe's pitches into the lower left field grandstand to tie the score in the seventh inning. The blow just was over the outstretched gloved hand of leftfielder Jackie Robinson. 714 Vermont It was a bitter defeat for the Dodgers who appeared on their way to triumph until their ace southpaw Preacher Roe, served up two of his specialties—home run balls. Lopat, who gave up nine hits and walked four, got in trouble in the ninth when he gave up a single to Dick Williams, pinch-hitting for Roe, and then walked PeeWee Reese with two out. But Snider, hitting star of the 1952 series who had been fooled by Lopat's tantalizing soft-stuff all day, rapped the ball swiftly to Billy Martin who gloved it and threw to first-baseman Joe Collins for an easy out. New York-(U.P.)-Mickey Mantle drove a home run into the left field grandstand with two out and one on in the eighth inning yesterday to give the Yankees a 4-2 victory over the Dodgers and a 2-0 lead in the 1953 World Series. Mantle's Homer in 9th Gives Yanks 2-0 Lead As yesterday, the Dodgers got two men on base but couldn't get them home. They stranded 10 yesterday and 12 in the first game. Their only runs came in the fourth when, with two out, Gil Hodges and Carl Furillo singled and Billy Cox drove them both in with a double. Phone 3500 That put the Brooks ahead, 2-1, and it looked like Preacher Roe, after a shaky start, might make it hold up. But he faltered in the eighth and ninth and the Yankees were well on their way to an unprecedented fifth consecutive series triumph. No club ever has lost the first two games of a seven-game series and came back to win it. The Yankees got their first run off Roe in the first after the Dodger southpaw walked the first two men to face him. Gene Woodling, who drew the first base on balls, went to second when Collins walked, to third after Bauer flied out, and scored after Yogi Berra fled out deep to Furillo. After Martin's home run in the seventh, Roe settled down and retired the next three men and it looked like he might get through the eighth too, until the Mantle lightning struck. Collins flied out to start the inning but then Bauer singled. Roe got the dangerous Berra on a fly but couldn't get by Mantle.

Meek drilled Paul Crandell at right end with the number one unit and said he will start against the Huskers. He was moved up on the basis of his pass catching ability displayed in the Colorado A&M game. Clarence Douglas scored both touchdowns in the first half for the Jayhawkers.
