"Oh no! Not again!" This exclamation would have been appr ote rated from any one of these five girls as they met on the steps of prison gymnasium.
They're Tops In Women's Intramurals
These girls are the top contestants in most of the women's individual intramural sports. They are from left to right: Betty Thomas, junior; Ruth Henry, junior; Elsie Lemon, senior; and Rita Carl, somomore.

Just to give you a little history, let's look at their record last year in these two sports.
Betty van der Smissen reached the tennis semi-finals. Ruth Henry was defeated in the badminton semi-finals and Elsie Lemon placed second in the final standings.
And as a clincher for this close acquaintance, Miss Thomas and Miss van der Smissen are both members of the champion hockey play-day team which won at Ottawa.
For the class volleyball teams Miss Thomas plays on the junior "A", while Miss Lemon is on the senior "B" and Miss Carl is on the sophomore "B".
Now back to this year. . .
Frosh Gridsters Have Good Year
The Jayhawkers gridiron program for the future, was expertly handled this year by head freshman coach, Don Fambrough, and his four assistants. They are Bill "Red" Hogan, backfield coach; Hugh Johnson, tackle coach. Ken Sperry, guard coach; and Brvan Sperry, end coach.
If this year's Kansas yearling club is any indication of Sike's next two squads, the football fortunes of the Jayhawkers are well on their way to reaching national prominence within a couple of years.
Fambrough's hustling 1949 squad soundly outclassed the University of Missouri freshmen 12 to 7 and ran over Kansas State's yearlings by a decisive 25 to 6 score.
Even in last Saturday's 20 to 2 reversal to a strong Varsity reserves' squad, Fambrough's charges looked impressive in running up a net total offense of 229 yards to a 222 figure by the winners. Several key injuries hurt the offensive strength of the freshmen in both the Kansas State and the Varsity battles.
The freshmen used a blistering ground attack against the Missouri yearlings in running up a 345 yard total on the ground and another 386 yards on Kansas State. A passing attack wasn't needed in either of these games but the freshmen's passing game looked sharper than did the Varsity reserves in their loss to their older brothers.
Several outstanding backs stood out in the short 3-game season. Charles Hoag, 187-pound left halfback Galen Fiss, 205-pound fullback, Don Clement, 180-pound right halfback, quarterback Jack Rodgers, and Merlin Gish, fine defensive linebacker are some of these.
In the K.U. forward wall, several linemen stood out, but for the most part, the victories were team victories and no exceptional performances by any one player. Among
