KU Must Whip Colonials Saturday To Even Series
The first victory of 1949 will be the objective for both Kansas and George Washington when the two teams meet in their sixth intersectional game Saturday at Memorial stadium.
ence play and looking for their first victory. Virginia and V. M. I. have conquered the Washington, D.C., team, but neither won in a walkaway. Virginia won 27 to 13 and V. M. I. got by 14 to 7 last week, in the Colonials first Southern conference game.
Alhough the Colonials still have "Handy Andy" Davis, sixth ranking offensive back in the country last year, they are, like the Jawhawkers, winless in confer-
Troubled by a dozen lost fumbles and a like number of pass interceptions, Coach Sike's team has dropped three straight and is two down in the Big Seven, where preseason forecasters rated them in third place. Kansas has lost to T. C. U. 28 to 0, Colorado 13 to 12, and Iowa State 19 to 6.
Coached by John H. "Be" Rowland, a master of the Carl Snavelly-style single wing, George Washington will have much the same club which surprised many by winning four games last year and gave Kansas a rugged 12 to 0 game in Griffith stadium. Most of the Kansas players said afterwards that the Colonials played as hard and rough as any club they met all season. The Colonials will be remembered as the club which knocked Frank Pattee out of action for the remainder of the season. Pattee was considered one of the better all-around K. U. backs in modern Jayhawk history.
Kansas controlled the ball well in that hard 12 to 0 win last year. They ran 62 running plays to 31 for the Colonials and also doubled the rushing yardage, 259 to 130. But both touchdowns came on passes. Davis passes and runs gave Kansas some anxious moments.
Last year Davis carried the ball on a third of his team's running plays and did almost all the passing. He gained 1,231 yards of the team's rushing. Yet the wiry 170-pound sophomore is considered better on defense than offense.
A K. U. win will even the series standing. Kansas won 7 to 0 in 1933 and 12 to 0 last year. The Colonials won 9 to 7, 14 to 7, and 6 to 0 in 1938, 39 and 40.
TCU Family Conscious
Fort Worth, Tex.—(U.P.)—Campaign posters on the Texas Christian university campus in the Student association election did double duty for two candidates, but were confusing.

Dix Club Wins Third Straight
Monday was another one of those afternoons in intramural football games. Don Henry, Air Serews, Broncos, Dix club, rolled up impressive victories. Phi Kappa Psi "B" "Oread and Battenfeld halls won other games.
Dix club jumped into the Independent "A" division limelight, drubbing A.I.E.E. 22 to 6 for its third straight victory. The losers got some consolation, however, when Ed Lange tossed a short touchdown pass to Ted Barnard for an A.I.E. score. It was the first touchdown scored against Dix this season.
Lou Ferguson passed for the winner's three touchdowns and added two extra points, one on a drop kick and the other on a pass to Bill McDonald. Jerry Puntency, McDonald, and Dick Leintz caught the touchdown passes. A fourth quarter safety completed the scoring for Dix.

Phi Psi "B" hung on to an early lead to down PiKA, 8 to 6. The Phi Psi's scored in the second quarter when Damon Simpson intrecepted a pass on the Pi KA 3 yard and went over to score. Lee Hamilton's sideline kick had put the ball there. Phi Psi got a safety in the third quarter which was enough to offset a PiKA touchdown in the fourth period.
Sterling hall bowed to the Air Screws 23 to 0 for its third straight loss in the independent "A" league. Bill Chaney paced the Air Screws, with three touchdown passes.
Bill Horton caught two of the scoring passes and Ed Schmidt got one. Schmidt place kicked the three extra points. Another two points were added when a Sterling ball carrier was tagged in the end zone.
Quarterback Jim Sterling passed Don Henley to a 25 to 0 win over Last Chance. The victors opened up in the second quarter when Sterling completed a touchdown pass to Don Short. Playing sleeper, Sterling took a 25-yard pass from Short and ran it across for another tally. On another sleeper play halfback Jack Davenport snagged a 20-yard aerial from Sterling for a third score. The final touchdown was made on a short pass from Sterling to Gordon Jarchow.
A last-period touchdown clinched a 14 to 6 win over the No Goodniks for Oread hall. The
