Victory At Last
KU Schedule Gets Rougher Will Face OU Saturday
Jules V. Sikes and his Kansas football squad today prepared for a long finish of the 1949 football season.
The Kansans bump into Oklahoma, one of the nation's great football teams, next Saturday, and strong Oklahoma A. and M., Oct. 22.
Kansas has only one possible soft spot in its remaining six-game schedule, that being Arizona on Nov. 26 in the final game of the season. But that's a long way off. The Jayhawkers still must play Missouri, the number two team of the Big Seven conference, and have yet to meet Kansas State and Nebraska, who would rather beat Kansas than anyone else in the conference.

The Jayhawkers finally got into the win column Saturday, on a blistering pass attack to stop George Washington university 21 to 14. Kansas built up that lead with only four minutes gone in the fourth quarter, but had to stave off last minute drives before being assured of victory.
Kansas jumped off to a 14 to 0 lead with 6 minutes left in the second quarter, much to the satisfaction of the 18,000 fans who watched the game. But by the end of the third quarter the score was tied 14 to 14.
With the second quarter barely 2 minutes old, Dick Gilman flipped a 7-yard aerial to Aubrey Linville in the end zone. Bill Rinehart converted. Rinehart, who missed his first three conversion attempts this season, made all three tries Saturday.
Al DUGoff, a hard-running fullback, scored both Colonial touchdowns. He carried the ball over in five running plays from the Kansas 16 just before halftime, then scored on a 1-yard plunge in the third quarter.
The Jayhawkers scored the winning touchdown in the fourth quarter on an 8-yard touchdown pass from Jerry Bogue to Bill Schaake. Kansas had started the drive on its own 34, moving downfield on a
Stengel Is Series Hero
New York, Oct. 10—U.P.)A new Yankee baseball dynasty appeared to be in the making today with Charles Dillon Stengel as the head man.
He came through with a World Series championship in the first year back in the majors and the miracles he performed with his New York Yankees left them sitting on top of the baseball world.
As manager Burt Shotton of the defeated Brooklyn Dodgers observed;
"Not even the Lord could have done a better job with the Yankees than old Casey.
"They had just a little bit more all the way around than we did," Shotton continued.
And that pretty well summed up the 1949 series which came to an end Sunday when the Yankees battered the Dodgers 10 to 6 at Ebbsfield to close out the classic, four games to one.
It was the climax to one of the greatest dramas in baseball history—the saga of a never-say-die bunch of guys who made up in spirit and aggressiveness what they lacked in talent.
Most of the credit, of course, goes to Stengel who took a misfit club, got it off in first place in the American league pennant race and then staved off a stretch run by the Boston Red Sox to win out.
Few thought the Yankees had any chance. To begin with they lost their sparkplug, Joe DiMaggio, for the first half of the season because of a heel spur. And injury piled on injury after that.
How Stengel kept his team up there will long remain one of the great feats of the game. This was not a Yankee team in the old Yankee tradition. It lacked power; it had no Babe Ruths or Lou Gehrigs. But it did have a bunch of players who out-hustled every other club in the business.
That's why they are world champions today.
Now the Yankee record shows that they have been in 16 World Series and have won 12 of them. To each member of this 1949 band, the triumph was worth about $5,800, while each losing Dodgers share was about $4,100.

Chicago — (U.P.) Three teen-age thieves introduced the "get-away" motor scooter.
They pulled their scooter to a halt beside a woman strolling to a neighborhood grocery. One of them jumped off and snatched her purse, containing $10.
