University Daily Kansan Page 7 Friday. Nov. 14. 1952 Jim Beam, Pearson to Enter Independent IM Finals By RON PHILLIPS Kansan Sports Writer Kansan Sports Writer Jim Beam and Pearson of the Independent A intramural football league along with Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Chi of the Fraternity B league dumped their foes in their first round of hill championship playoffs yesterday. The powerhouse of the independent league, Jim Beam, ambled over Stephenson 8 to 0. Only one game stands between Jim Beam and the independent championship for the second straight year. James Kubik broke through the Stephenson offensive line early in the first period and caught the quarterback behind the goal line for a safety. The lone Jim Beam tally came in the second period on a pass from Don Porter to Bob Huke. Beta Theta Pi's B squad took advantage of the sudden death overtime after a tie game by netting 17 positive yards to the Phi Gam B team's 4 yards. The teams battled to a 14-14 tie during regular playing time. Jerry Witt fired a 12 yard pass to Keith Smith in the end zone for the only score of the game as Sigma Chi played Phi Gamma Delta 6-0 Thursday. The touchdown came in the first quarter and climaxed an 80 yard drive. Smith was covered by two defenders but grabbed the ball between them for the winning tally. Ray Borden flipped a 15 yard pass to Joe Donnigan in the second quarter to give Jolliffe a 6-0 lead which lasted until Templin made the interception. The Sigma Chi defense was so potent that the losers never got past their 40 yard line throughout the game. Don Schultz led the Sigma Chi line by intercepting five passes. The winners threatened several times to boost the score but the Phi Gam defense stiffened on each occasion to keep the score down. In the fourth period, with Pearson driving, Templin grabbed a long pass, dodged four Jolliffe linemen, sprinted 40 yards for a touchdown. The winning point was scored on a fake kick, with Bud Walker Jay Templin made a spectacular interception with six minutes to play to lead Pearson to a 7-6 victory over Jollife. Round two of the Fraternity A hill championship tournament this afternoon will see Phi Kappa Psi pitted against Beta Theta Pi and Sigma Chi against Gamma Delta. passing to Leroy Harold. The pass was deflected by a Jolliffe lineman, but Harold dived for the ball after the deflection, grabbed it, and held on for the winning point. The biggest question mark will be Kansas to Try for 6th Consecutive Loop Title The Kansas cross-country track squad, led by Wes Santee, will bid for its sixth straight conference title when six conference teams toe the mark in the Big Seven cross-country championships tomorrow at 1:20 p.m., just prior to the Kansas-Oklahoma A&M football game. The three-mile hill-and-dale jaunt will begin on the baseball field southeast of the stadium, circle the campus, and finish on the stadium track in front of the student section. The Jayhawkers will throw a fiveman punch at a field that includes all Big Seven schools but Kansas State and will stand a chance to grab the first two finishing spots. Other KU runners besides Santee will be Art Dalzell, Lloyd Koby, Keith Palmquist, and Dick Wilson. Santee has won all four of KU's dual encounters this season as the Jayhawkers have extended their win streak to 22 straight. Dalzell has placed second in the last three meets after grabbing a third in the season's opener and will have a good chance to take the runner-up spot in the field of 30 Saturday. Kansas has had both the team championships and the individual winner for the past five years. Bob Karnes led the.Jayhawkers to wins in 1947-49. Herb Semper won in 1950 and '51 and Santee looks to be the winner this outing. The Kansans set two records last season, one of which will stand at least for another year. The Jayhawkers placed men in first, second, third, and seventh to get 13 points, just three over the minimum. The fifth man, who does not count in the scoring, finished eighth. The 13 points were six under the old mark of 19 set by Kansas in 1948 and 1950. Semper, in winning the race—then a two-mile cinder track event—set a new mark of 9:14.9, beating his own record of a year before. Santee finished second and Dalzell third with Palmquist seventh. A new record will be established this season as it is the first time for the three-mile cross country course. The last cross-country race in the conference was in 1929 under the old Big Six. Santee holds the present course in the Phi Psi-Beta contest. Both teams have had undefeated seasons and are well experienced. After the close shave the Phi Psi's had with a game Lambda Chi Algebra guard Wednesday, Beta will go into the encounter slightly favored. Little attention is given the Sigma Chi, Phi Gam duel. Sigma Chi has already fallen victim to the smooth Phi Gam team by a 6 to 0 count. The first transcontinental railroad in the United States was completed May 10, 1869, with the driving of a golden spike at Ogden, Utah. QUICK STARTS...
