Gilman—Pigskin Hurler
GILMAN
Dick Gilman, K.U.'s pass sling-
ing quarterback, is quite adept in other positions on the gridiron as well as in his newly inherited signa1 - calling slot. As a high school athlete Dick was a center and for his first two years on Mt. Oread, he played half-back behind
All-American Ray Evans and Frank Pattee.
Gilman was given very little publicity as the probable starter in the quarterback spot, but early in the Texas Christian game he proved that he was going to be hard to remove from the position. At Denver he completed three touchdown passes and again turned in a similar feat against the Colorado Buffalos, Saturday.
Until this season he was better known for his hurling duties on the
As a high school athlete, Dick received three letters in basketball and three in baseball as well as varsity letters in his junior and senior years as a center in football. He attended high school in Webster Grove. Mo., a suburb of St. Louis.
Dick, whose home is in Merriam, spent 15 months in the Marines. He is a junior in Physical Education from the University of Kansas. He is 21 years old and is not married.
Jayhawker baseball squad. He has lettered as a pitcher for the past two years. The past two summers Dick has been the number one hurler for the Atchison semi-pro baseball team.

Lou Boudreau, long one of the greatest shortstops in baseball, finally has come through as a manager. It was almost a do-or-die matter for the youthful Cleveland pilot who, although he is only 31, is in his seventh season as a big league skipper.
Boudreau practically took matters in his own hands yesterday as he blasted out two home runs in Cleveland's 8 to 3 playoff defeat of the Boston Red Sox. He was very confident going into the game. "There is no Hal Newhouser in Boston. We're going there just a day early for the World Series," he remarked. All he has to worry about now is Sain and Spahn who are in Boston.
Coach Bill Easton says that early time trials have revealed Bob Karnes, Hal Hinchene, Dave Briedenthal, John Forney, and Cliff Abel, as the leading candidates for the two-mile team which opens its season against Kansas State Oct. 20 at Manhattan. The fellows are working hard to repeat as conference two-mile champions.
The miserable showing by Tulsa in absorbing a 28-14 defeat at the hands of Florida would seem to indicate the Hurricane has hit the bottom of the slow slide from national football eminence it began when Henry Frnka left for Tulane. They will meet the rough Texas Tech Red Raiders this week.
Oklahoma's Sooners will be out this weekend to try to down their bitter rivals, the Texas Longhorns, a trick they haven't pulled since 1939. The game will be played before 70,000 persons in Dallas. The action of Oklahoma fans in throwing pop bottles on the field last year almost caused a breaking off of this series which began in 1899. An Oklahoma victory would be a definite upset but not too surprising.
Saints, Montreal In Little 'Series'
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 5- (UP)—Two Brooklyn Dogger farm clubs, St. Paul and Montreal, were all set today to cross bats in the Little World Series, scheduled to get undertaken in St. Paul today.
St. Paul earned the right to represent the American Association by shipping the Columbus Red Birds, 3 to 3, in the seventh and deciding game of the league finals.
