Bv RAY SOLDAN
Ames, Iowa, Oct. 14—Kansas powered its way to undisputed first place in the conference today with a crushing ground attack which swept over Iowa State, 33 to 21. A record-breaking, homecoming crowd of 19,500 saw J. V. Sikes' foot soldiers out-maneuver State's heavy aerial assault for their second Big Seven victory against no defeats.
The Jayhawkers cracked the Iowa State's defenses for three touchdowns in the first 16 minutes, then fought off the enemy's air attacks the rest of the very warm afternoon.
Chet Strehlow, K.U. field general, sent three backs—Charlie Hoag, Johnny Amberg, and Wade Stinson—on 56 of his squad's 62 sorties into Iowa lines. The hard-driving trio rolled up 348 yards—an average of 6.2 yards a thrust.
Hoag set a K.U. single game rushing record with a net of 140 yards on 19 carries. The former mark was 138 yards by Ray Nibble, set in 1941—also against Iowa State, but in Lawrence. Nibble actually rushed for 143 yards, but lost five. Hoag didn't lose any yardage and scored two touch-downs. His four game total is 377 yards—only 133 yards shy of K.U.'s season rushing record, held by Bud French.
Stinson smashed for 119 yards and Amberg for 89. Stinson scored Kansas second and third touchdowns.
The Jayhawkers' advanced forces opened big holes for their infantry to pour through, Capt. Mike McCormack and second class grandma George Mrkonic led the front liners. Bill Mace, linebacker-guard, turned in another good performance. He recovered a Cyclone fumble and blocked a punt to set up two K.U. touchdowns and halted an enemy drive with a timely pass interception on the Kansas 25.
Iowa State, jolted by early Jayhawker ground successes, unleashed an aerial counter offensive in the second phase of the battle. Its intensity would have pleased even Billy Mitchell, the old air power booster. Bill Weeks, State's pin-point accurate bombardier, scored 17 direct hits in 26 shots during the campaign. He accounted for 188 air yards and tossed one scoring pass.
The Cyclones struck along the ground for 144 additional yards, including touchdown runs of nine and 21 yards, but it was the over head attacking that gave Kansas most of its uneasy moments.

Jim Doran, an all-conference end for Iowa State last season, caught nine of Weeks' passes for 125 yards. His nine catches is a Cyclone record—breaking his own mark of eight against Oklahoma last year. Grabbing Weeks' passes wasn't a difficult job though because they were nearly-perfect passes. His timing and accuracy were amazing.

to nab four of Weeks' passes—one for a touchdown.
Kansas wasn't completely without an air offensive. Strehlow hit with two of ten attempts for 43 yards. A Strehlow to Lyn Smith pass surprised Cyclone defenders in the third quarter and produced the fourth Jayhawker touchdown. Several other passes were near misses.
Dolph Simons, the Big Seven's leading punter, upped his season average to 46.4 with kicks of 40 and 57 yards. These were the only two occasions that Kansas was forced to punt and they were both in the first half. Iowa State just had to kick three times—also all in the first half—as the offensive battle rolled up and down the field.
The opening flurry of action was all Kansas. The Jayhawkers drove for three touchdowns before Iowa State could get a first down. The first score came on a two-yard plunge by Hoag. It climaxed a 10-play, 48-驱动 drive which was highlighted by a 12-yard fourth-down Strehlow to Bill Schaake pass.
Two minutes later, Stinson raced around left end and cutback for 19 yards and the second Jayhawker touchdown. It was set up when Mace recovered a fumble on Iowa's 36-yard line. Bill Rinehart missed his second straight extra point attempt.
The enemy's defenses were rocked for a third time early in the second period. Mace blocked a punt and Chuck O'Neal grabbed it on the I. S. 25. Six plays, including a 20-yard ramble by Hoag, produced the score. McCormack cleared the path and Stinson went over on a fourth-down play from the two-yard line. Fox Cashell came on to kick the extra point, making it 19 to 0.
Kansas was pushing toward a fourth and probably knockout touchdown when Jerry Cimburke, third-string fullback, took a Strehlow pass which had bounced out of Hoag's hands and raced 47 yards down the sidelines to the K.U. 18. Hoag finally caught Cimburk from behind, but Iowa State was now fired up. On the third play, Weeks passed nine yards to Wilhelmi for a touchdown. Bob Clendening made the first of three successful conversions.
The Cyclones were soon back to score again. Weeks' passing and Mel Meling's running moved Iowa State 85 yards in 11 plays. Meling scored on a 21-yard dash around right end with a pitchout from Weeks. Clendening's kick made it 19 to 14 at halftime.
Kansas wasted no time in the second half in widening the gap, Iowa State's Maury Schnell fumbled on the first play from scrimmage and Hal Cleavinger recovered for the Jayhawkers on the Iowa 30-yard line. Strehlow passed to Smith on the 12, and Smith, with a beautiful bit of running, went over for a touchdown, Cashell's kick was good.
A comeback Iowa State drive was halted by Mace's pass interception. In four huge rushes Kansas rolled 70 yards to its final score. Hoag went 19, Amberg 12, Hoag 7 to the Cyclone 32-yard line where he fumbled and Bob Talkington recovered, and then Hoag scored untouched from the 32.
MRKONIC
MIKE McCORMACK
The Cyclones closed the day's scoring with a 73-yard march. Weeks passed for 31 yards and ran for 31 more in this drive. He went over from the one on a quarterback sneak. Clendening converted.
There were still 17 and a half minutes left in the ball game, but the scoring was finished; however, the thrills weren't over yet. Twice in the last quarter Iowa State drove inside the Kansas 25-yard line, but each time pass interceptions—one by Cleavinger and one by Hoag—
Beta, Sig Ep, Delts, Kappa Sig, And TKE, Win Shutouts

All five of the losing teams in Friday's fraternity "A" play failed to score against their powerful opponents. The defending champion Beta team kept its victory string unbroken with a convincing 40 to 0 win over Triangle.
Field
Beta 40. Triangle 0
The Beta's passing attack which won them last year's title got a good workout, accounting for four of the six touchdowns. Jim Floyd and John Strawn each threw two of the scoring passes. The other scores came on a short run by Floyd and a fumble recovery in the end zone by Jerry Brownlee.

2. Battenfeld vs. Don Henry
3. Unknowns vs. YMCA
4. Oread vs. AIEE
5. Jim Beam vs. Joliffe
6. Sterling-Oliver vs. AROTC
Joe Mendenhall was outstanding from his end position and Tom Murphy looked good at his guard slot for the Betas.

quick touchdowns in the last stanza.
Both touchdowns came on passes from Herb Rettig to Don Freely and the extra point came on another pass to Freely, this time from Bob Mathers.
George Williams played an excellent game in the Sig Ep defensive line and Glenn Schaver led his Delta Chi teammates.
Delts 48. A E Pi 0
The Delts had no trouble in downing the disorganized A E Pi team by a lopsided score. Clark Grimm led the Delt offense, along with Tommy Crahan and John McConnell. Standouts in the Delt line were Bill Hartell and Charley Rombold.
TKE 14. Acacia 0
The TKE's scored a lone touchdown in each of the first and second quarters, then added a third quarter for good measure. Press Wilson passed to Lorn Evans for the first score and then Don Korris intercepted a pass and ran 90-yards for a touchdown, thanks to some fine blocking by George Fields and Wilson.
Kappa Sig 30. A. Phi A. 0
Kappa Sig completely outclassed A. Phi A. sig with an offense that improves each game. Morris Martin scored three of the Kappa Sig touchdowns, two on passes and one on an interception return. Bob Walker was the outstanding Kappa Sig lineman.

Sooners Take Streak Into Big Seven Play
Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 16—U.P.
Oklahoma, having disposed of its two tough Texas opponents on successive Saturdays in dramatic fashion, now turns its attention to defense of the Big Seven title and may well stretch the elastic of its string of wins a far piece.
For the next six Saturdays, the Sooners will be busy around the conference. Then they wind up against Oklahoma A. and M. and the way the 1950 Sooners have been going, headman Bud Wilkinson may have to cancel that coaching engagement he has for New Year's Day and look after his own club's affairs.
True, every opponent points for Oklahoma. Also true, there doesn't appear at this writing to be an unbeatable road block to break the Oklahoma land rush. This week it's
Kansas State, at Norman and that should be a breeze for the third string and No. 25 on the Oklahoma victory parade.
It could be Kansas that would give the Sooners their biggest scare between now and Turkey day. Starting in the fourth quarter a week ago against Colorado, Kansas has been blowing as hot as a prairie fire. Despite all that needle-threading Bill Weeks could do with his passes, Kansas beat Iowa State 33 to 21 Saturday. Sophomore Charlie Hoag will give any opposing coach a bad time of it. He got a pair of counters Saturday.
Nebraska's Bobby Reynolds is another sophomore who'll show his heels to many a tackler this season. He like Hoag can do about anything there is to do with a football, as he proved again against Colorado.
Missouri, while breaking into the scoring column for the first time this year in beating Kansas State 28 to 7, yet has to show power capable of breaking the elastic in the Oklahoma victory streak. A better idea of how Missouri is rebounding after taking the beatings from Clemson and SMU may be found after the Tigers play Iowa State this Saturday.
The Iowa State-Missouri and Oklahoma-Kansas State games are the only conference affairs this weekend. Colorado plays its first non-conference foe in Arizona, Nebraska entertains Penn State and Oklahoma A. and M. moves up to Lawrence for a look at Hoag and his buddies
