IM Football Season Ends First Half of Regular Play
By RON PHILLIPS Kansan Sports Writer
Six Fraternity B and two Independent A intramural football squads clashed Friday as the first half of the season came to a close.
Another Fraternity B duel saw Phi Gamma Delta snow Sigma Alpha Epsilon. All of the victor's scoring came as a result of a sudden barrage of smart ball playing in the third quarter. Don Stephens, Phi Gam linebacker, sparked the flurry of scoring as he turned two pass interceptions into tallies. Dick Dennis to Mark Nardyz was the combination responsible for the final Phi Gam touchdown.
Sigma Chi used its hard running offense to conquer Beat Theta Pi 13 to 10. In the first quarter, the Beta's continually broke through Sigma Chi offensive line resulting in two safeties for the Beta's.
The second period saw a greatly improved attack for Sigma Chi as they drove deep into Beta territory. After a pass interference penalty on the Beta Theta Pi 10-yard line, Merle Sellars, Sigma Chi end, made a brilliant catch of an aerial from Jerry Witt.
Far from being counted out, Beta Theta Pi struck back in the third quarter to score and push into the lead again 10 to 6. However, Sigma Chi hustled another tally over the chalk marks in the final period.
Sig Alp, who led most of the contest, was surprised by the furious assault and failed to get a profitable drive going the remainder of the game. Ted Davis and Dick Bowen led the Sig Alp scoring machine at the first of the game, but couldn't get it in gear in the clutch.
Alpha Tau Omega scored in every quarter to overwhelm Alpha Epsilon Pi. 32-12.
The losers took the lead early in the first quarter when Sidney Gottesmann ran 30 yards after taking a 30-yard pass from Harold Steinberg. The ATO's went out in front minutes later on Vern Moser's short pass to Chuck Goldenberg. They scored again in the quarter when defensive guard Jim Shepler intercepted an AEPI lateral and ran 15 yards for a touchdown.
On Thursday, Jim Beam, Alpha Tau Omega, Phi Delta Theta and Triangle extended their winning streaks as the intramural football division standings began to shape up.
With each team riding an undefeated record for the season, Sigma Nu and Triangle met in a contest which saw the Engineers win 14 to 6.
Sigma Nu put a scare into Triangle early in the first quarter when a 30 yard pass put them deep in Triangle territory. Bill Frazer hit Roger Collins for the touchdown but missed the conversion.
Metz hit Goldenberg again in the last quarter to complete the ATO scoring. Sid Lasaine passed to Clarence Winer for 20 yards in the third quarter for the other AEPi touchdown.
Far from being overcome, the Engineers rallied immediately and scored on a long pass, Walker to Mongmory. The conversion put Triangle in the lead 7 to 6.
The ATO's raised the score to 19 to 6 in the second quarter on Moser's 30-yard heave to Shepler. The winners tallied again in the third on a great catch by Goldenberg, Jack Metz had thrown a pass which was deflected by an AEPI defender and Goldenberg made a diving catch of the ball in the end-zone.
The story changed very little until the last four minutes of play when Triangle struck again with a touchdown and extra point. Striving to score, Sig Nu intercepted a Triangle pass and raced to the Triangle 2-yard line. But Triangle stalled Sig Nu 14 to 6. Independent, A football championship team, Jim Beam, racked up another victory in its quest of fame by snowing Battenfield 14 to 0.
The losers led at the first quarter 7-6 on Forrest Hougland's 40 yard pass to Glen Shaver. Ade passed to Harold Heath for 30 yards to score the first Phil Delt touchdown, but the conversion failed.
Ade began hitting his targets in the second period to put Phi Delt out in front at halftime, 19-7. He passed to Blaine Sheideman for 30 yards for the first touchdown and hit Eddie Miller with a long heave for the second.
Bill Porter sparked the Jim Beam offensive by tagging Ed Lee with a touchdown pass in the first quarter and throwing a 10 yard pass to Bob Trego for a tally in the third quarter. Both conversions were made by Porter.
Roosevelt Roads naval base, Puerto Rico — (U.P.)— Marine Capt. Ted Williams, who expects to go to Korea soon as a combat jet pilot, said today he doubts that he'll ever return to baseball in any capacity.
The Phi Delts increased their lead with two more touchdowns in the second half. Jim Fee grabbed a short flip from Ade in the third quarter to run the score to 25 to 7. Ade passed to Heath for the final score, the play covering 60 yards.
Williams Doubts Return to Baseball
Monday, Oct. 20, 1952.
Carl Ade threw five touchdown passes to lead Phi Delta Theta to a 31 to 7 win over Delta Chi.
As for any other job in baseball, Williams said he "wasn't interested." Instead, he has in mind a "certain business project" which, if it works out, will probably take up all of his time.

San Francisco 49ers Head For National League Crown
New York—(U.P.)The National Football league may be headed for its fourth new champion in as many years as the San Francisco Forty-Niners dig in on top of the National conference with a 4-0 record.
Coach Buck Shaw's Forty-Niners, powerful though crippled by injuries, took a two-game lead yesterday by defeating the Chicago Bears 40-16. It was San Francisco's 12th straight victory over the last two seasons and the worst beating ever suffered by Coach George Halas' proud Bears, seven-time champions in 33 NFL campaigns.
The Philadelphia Eagles won the world professional championship in 1949, the Cleveland Browns in 1950 and the Los Angeles Rams in 1951. The Forty-Niners, the only undefeated team in the circuit, may be next because no other club has shown such power and consistency
"We've sold all our first allotment," Earl Falkenstien, athletic business manager, said this morning, "but we'll have some more in today. The tickets are choice seats and are priced at $3.60 each."
Athletic Office to Sell SMU-KU Tickets
Students planning to attend the Kansas-Southern Methodist university football game Saturday afternoon in Dallas' Cotton Bowl may purchase tickets at the KU Athletic Office in Robinson gym through Thursday.
There has been much interest in the KU-SMU game. A big Jayhawk delegation, both KU alumni living in Texas and Oklahoma and KU students and Kansas grid fans, will cheer Coach J. V. Sikes' club against the strong SMU Mustangs.
against strong rivals this season.
But San Francisco's victory over the Bears wasn't half as surprising as the 24-23 Chicago Cardinal triumph over the previously unbeaten New York Giants. New York was a 13-point favorite, but when the game ended the Cardinals, Giants and Cleveland were deadlocked for the American conference lead with 3-1 records.
Cleveland, beaten last week by the Giants, took full advantage of New York's defeat by whipping the Eagles 49-7. It was Philadelphia's second worst defeat.
The Detroit Lions tied the Bears and the Green Bay Packers for second (each 2-2) in the National conference by rallying to beat the Rams, 24-16. The Washington Redskins came from behind to down the Pittsburgh Steelers 28-24. Green Bay beat Dallas 24-14, Saturday night.
The Eagles and Redskins have 2-2 records and Pittsburgh is 0-4 in the American conference. The Rams are 1-3 in defense of their National conference title. Dallas is last in the National with an 0-4 mark.
