Underrated Cyclones Whip Kansas 19-6; Fumbles Hurt
By BUD WRIGHT
Those who have been "big wheels" around the Big Seven football scene for years today took another look at the Kansas' 1949 football record and still couldn't believe what they saw.
Disappointing Kansas, the team veteran Big Seven observers pegged to finish behind great Oklahoma and Missouri elevens in conference play, sits all alone at the bottom of the loop standings. the Jayhawk
The victory-starved Jayhawkers suffered their third straight setback and their second in conference play Saturday right in their own backyard. Abe Tuber's much underrated Iowa State Cyclones, still hot from their 20 to 20 upset tying of Illinois Sept. 24, turned back the Kansans 19 to 6.
But, on paper, there was little difference between the two teams. Kansas outgained the Iowans 258 yards to 249 on the ground and got 101 yards to the Cyclones 130 through the air.
Twenty-thousand fans, a new attendance record for the Kansas-Iowa State series, saw 19-year-old Bill Weeks, and company open conference play. The former attendance record—17,591-was established in 1947. Weeks, an unknown last year, completed 8 of 18 passes for 117 yards, giving him a season's record of 23 completions in 48 attempts. Jim Doran, the Cyclones fancytatching right end, got five of them
Amazingly, it wasn't the Cyclone's tricky "T-V" offensive formation that defeated Kansas. It was fumbles—those same costly fumbles that enabled Colorado to whip Kansas 13 to 12 Sept. 24—that spelled defeat.
The Jayhawkers fumbled four times in the first half Saturday and four times the opportunistic Cyclones recovered. Two fumbles set up tochdowns. That was enough to take the life out of Kansas.
Iowa State struck early in the second quarter after recovering a fumble by Bud French on the Kansas 24. Bill Weeks fired a touchdown pass to Bob Angle for the score. Joe Brubaker's placement attempt went wide.
Three minutes later Angle ripped through the center of the Kansas line, shaking off four would-be tacklers, and raced 51 yards to the Kansas 2 before he was hit from behind by Lyn Smith. Weeks promptly scored on a line buck Brubaker's kick was good and Iowa State led 13 to 0.
Iowa State again threatened with 2 minutes left in the first half. The Cyclones were on the Kansas 22 when Cliff McDonald intercepted one of Weeks' passes on the 12 and ran back to the 38. Two plays later Dick Gilman faded back, found no receivers, then scooted around left end to the Iowa State 41.
Gilman hit French on the 18, then completed to Aubrey Linville on the 4. Gilman fired to French in the end zone on the next play but French dropped the ball. Kansas tried two line plays but failed to score as the half ended.
Gilman, an all-Big Seven quarterback in 1948, ran wild all afternoon. He ran seven times, picking up 134 yards, the best showing of his college career in the rushing department. He broke away for 59 yards on the opening play of the game, going to the Iowa State 36. The Cyclones, however, were then aided by three Kansas penalties and took over when Dolph Simons booted out on the 19.
It was Gilman who scored the lone Kansas touchdown. With 6 minutes remaining in the game he raced around right end, and with good downfield blocking—something
the Jayhawkers have lacked this season—he went 36 yards to score, standing up. Bill Rinehart's kick was wide.
Iowa State got its final touchdown in the fourth quarter when Bill Chauncey drove through center and went 43 yards to score. Burbaker's placement attempt went wide.
Forrest Griffith, the Jayhawkers great fullback, turned in his usual outstanding game, both on offense and defense, and Bob Drumm, hustling Kansas linebacker, again turned in a fine defensive game. Carl Ellis, the Jayhawker's hard-hitting guard, also starred.

Old Timers Get Chance To Prove Their Boasts
Roswell. N. M.,—(U.P.)—Eastern New Mexico old timers are a little angry at "newcomers" to the state who brag about being in New Mexico in the old days.
To see to it that old timers are really old timers, a permanent organization will be formed here. Anyone who wants to get in has to prove he has been in New Mexico for at least 30 years.
The registration will precede the old timers convention Oct. 7 in Roswell.
Robinson, Kell Win 49 Batting Crowns
A baseball world hailing the Dodgers and the Yankees took a little time today to salute the 1949 league batting champions—Detroit's George Kell in the American league and Brooklyn's Jackie Robinson in the National league.
Unofficial figures showed Kell led both leagues by getting two hits in three trips on the last day of the season to hike his mark to .3429. Ted Williams of the Red Sox went hitless in two tries as his team lost the pennant to New York and slipped to .34275.
Robinson, who led his loop nearly all year, had one hit in three trips in the pennant clinching game to finish with .342. Stan Musial of the Cards took second with .339 and Enos "country" Slaughter of the Cards was third with .336.
