THEN CAME THE SNAFU—Only moments after this picture was taken Friday afternoon, students who were exchanging ID cards for the Oklahoma-Kansas football game were informed that no more tickets were available. A storm of protests arose. Students, who had been standing patiently in line for hours, wanted tickets. Bill Wilson, All Student Council president, who arrived on the scene, promised students that more would be printed. They were available the following morning. Kenson photo by Don Sarten.
Spirits Droop As OU Rolls
By RICH CLARKSON
Perfect pigskin weather, an ideal setting for a game, and all the pomp and color that go with an autumn gridiron classic, were served up to 3.500 Oklahoma football fans and their seemingly invincible team in Memorial stadium Saturday.
But the booming Sooners, taking advantage of the Northern hospitality, also took the game amidst the crashes of a pair of signaling guns operated by Sooner cheerleaders, and the cheers of the Oklahoma rooters.
But to most of the near-record crowd of 40,000 fans, who took every seat and foothold in the stadium, and to the majority of another million viewers, who looked into the stadium through the television lenses of WDAF-TV, the final gun brought no signal for exuberation.
375,000 Miners Start Unofficial Soft Coal Strike
By UNITED PRESS
More than 300,000 of the nation's 375,000 soft coal miners stayed home today in what apparently was the start of an "unofficial" nation-wide bituminous coal strike.
There was no formal strike order from John L. Lewis, but most of his United Mine workers apparently felt that the government had cancelled their contract by cutting 40 cents off their recently negotiated $1.90 daily pay raise.
At Washington, defense mobilization Chief Henry H. Fowler indicated approval of the Wage Stabilization board's decision to cut the pay raise negotiated last month by Mr. Lewis and the coal operators.
A check of the nation's richest coal fields showed only a handful of mines in operation.
Even before the WSB ruling Saturday, 100,000 miners had quit work because of the delay in receiving their pay raise.
Meanwhile, Sen. Homer Ferguson (R.-Mich.) said in Washington that President Harry S. Truman should invoke the national emergency provisions of the Taft-Hartley act to stall a nuclear crisis and to authorize a fact-finding board and obtain an 80-day injunction against a walkout.
But government officials adopted a "wait and see" attitude and gave no indication that the Taft-Hartley act would be invoked.
South African Town Shut After Race Riot
Johannesburg, South Africa—(U.P.)
—Police riflesmen sealed off Port Elizabeth's Negro suburb of New Brighton today following a weekend race仁 in which four whites and seven Nigroes were killed.
Rioters burned a movie theater to the ground, wrecked a post office and a number of shops, and damaged a railway station.
The riot was touched off by the arrest of two Negroes on a theft charge Saturday afternoon. They resisted, and a hastily-gathered mob went to their rescue.

Ike Calls Truman's Charge A 'Below the Belt' Attack
Washington—(U.P.)—Dwight D. Eisenhower today headed for the heavily Catholic areas of New England amidst a growing controversy over President Truman's suggestions that the GOP presidential nominee is anti-Semitic and anti-Catholic.
While the Republicans and Democrats traded blows over the issue of racial and religious bias, Gov. Stevenson's supporters sought to nullify the GOP attack on the Democratic presidential nominee over the Alger Hiss case.
whistle stop tour through New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Mr. Truman, back at the White House after a "give 'em hell" tour through New England and New York City, will board his campaign train again tonight for a three-day
Gen. Eisenhower was described by his aides as infuriated at what he felt was an unjustified "below the belt" attack on him by the President.
Gov. Adaii E. Stevenson, who has already stumped through New England, took a one-day rest from campaigning before heading eastward for a whistle-stop tour of such key states as Ohio, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New York.
The volunteers for Stevenson committee issued a statement claiming that Gen. Eisenhower made "a far greater and more personal endorsement" of Hiss than did Gov. Stevenson. The committee pointed to the fact that Gen. Eisenhower was a member of the board of trustees of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace when Hiss was its president and that Gen. Eisenhower had never expressed disapproval of the board's refusal to accept Hiss' resignation after he was accused of being a communist.
An indication that the Republicans planned to slap back at Mr. Truman came with release by the Eisenhower campaign headquarters of a letter from Bernard M. Baruch, elder statesman and prominent Jewish leader, praising Gen. Eisenhower for his "abhorrence of hypocrisy and intolerance in all fields of human relations."
Lawrence — and Kansas — was quiet Saturday night with the realization that football victories and Oklahoma are as inseparable as Phog Allen and basketball.
The Kansans, team and fans alike, were confident going into the crucial game. A series of Friday and Saturday rallies added to the pre-game tenseness.
Thousands of cars clogged Lawrence streets Saturday morning as the first echelons of the crowd began to arrive. Technicians made final adjustments to dozens of microphones, cameras, and television relay equipment atop the press box.
The stadium, nearly filled an hour before kickoff time, buzzed with excitement as the engineers and lawyers exchanged card-sign volleys. The University band stepped off as members of the Jayhawk pep organizations formed a runway for the Kansas team to enter through.
But the optimistic note that prevailed throughout Kansas cheered sections and on the Jayhawk bench, began to drop as it became obvious that all wasn't going according to plan.
The late afternoon silence was punctuated only with shots of the OU victory guns as the final groups of fans streamed out of the paper-littered stadium.
