Junior Jayhawkers Defeat Missouri Freshmen 12-7
Bv BOB NELSON
A fighting band of rugged Kansas freshmen pushed over a third period touchdown to defeat the highly regarded Missouri freshmen 12 to 7 Friday afternoon on Rollins Field in Columbia before an estimated 2,000 persons.
Coach Don Fambrough's Kansas' yearlings unleashed a blistering ground attack to score the second time they got their hands on the ball and again in the third quarter.
A hard charging Kansas forward wall limited the young Tigers from gaining much yardage through the line. Most of the Missouri ground gains were picked up on wide end sweeps.
With the ball on the Missouri 30-yard line, Charles Hoag, outstanding 187-pound left halfback from Oak Park, Ili, crashed off left tackle for 21 yards to move the pigskin to the M.U. 9-yard line. Halfback Don Clement, 180-pounder from Hiawatha, followed with a six-yard gain. Hoag bulled his way through left guard to score standing up. Fox Cashell's conversion failed and K.U. led 6 to 0.
The young Jayhawks scored early in the first quarter to take a 6 to 0 lead. Clarence Cain, 179-pound halfback from Wellington, made a beautiful 58-yard punt return to set the stage for the final K.U. touchdown.
With 34 seconds remaining in the first half, Missouri struck suddenly on a 53-yard pass play from quarterback Dick Ortmann to halfback Bill Wilkening. Tom Tinsley's placement split the up-rights to give Missouri a 7 to 6 lead at the half.
Late in the third period, K.U. recovered a Missouri fumble on the Tiger 15-yard line and quickly cashed it into the winning marker.
Clement picked up seven yards through right tackle to move the ball to the M.U. 8-yard line. Hoag crashed through center to the 1-yard marker. Clement plunged over center for the wining touchdown. Fox's attempted placeck was low and Kansas led 12 to 7.
K. U. students and local fans will have an opportunity to see Coach Fambrough's hustling freshmen squad in action Friday night at Haskell stadium when they clash with the Kansas State yearlings. Kansas Aggies are reported to have another fine team although they were defeated by the Nebraska freshmen 14 to 0 in their first game of the season. Game time is 8 p.m.
The young Kansans pushed the Missouri yearlings, regarded as one of the best squads in the school's history, all over the field in the first half. Kansas dominated the first half rushing statistics with 193 yards for an average of six yards per carry while Missouri could mark up a mere 38 total and a two yard average.
Hoag, easily the best running back on the field, piled up a remarkable 135 yards on 16 first half carries. He added 46 more on 8 second half runners and totalled of 181 yards in 24 rushing plays and a 7.5 average for the day.
Coach Fambrough, ranked as one of the finest guards ever to play for Kansas, expressed his

satisfaction in his team's fine blocking, tackling, and the hard running of his backs. He said that the boys made several mistakes but as a whole played good team ball.
Although it was hard to single out individual performers, he said
