PAGE SEVEN
I-M Play Starts Oct. 4; Leaders Meet Tuesday
The 1948-49 men's intramural program gets off to an early start with a meeting at 4 p.m. Tuesday of all organizational team managers in 202 Robinson gymnasium.
The purpose of the meeting is to explain changes in the program, chief of which is the elimination of the sweepstakes point system. Due to the great
life, the school authorities felt it would be better to do away with the over-emphasis on this form of athletics.
Last year's total number of participants, 3,000, is expected to be equalled or surpassed this year. Don Powell, director of intramurals, said. With the exception of handball, the same sports will be offered this year as last. Handball is being suspended due to the razing of the courts to make way for the campus drive.
Team competition will be offered in touch football, with single elimination tournaments in tennis, golf, and horseshoes. Entry blanks and questions concerning these sports will be taken up at the Tuesday meeting. The entry fee for the various sports will be 35c a man.
All fall sports will begin Oct. 4 and no entries will be accepted after Oct.1.
Frank Prosser, Beta Theta Pi, and Chia Wagstaff, Sigma Chi, will be the student managers for the intramural program. Prossel will handle the major sports and Wagstaff will handle the minor sports. They will be assisted by the following sophomore student managers: Wayne Davis, Sigma Chi; Frank Ross, Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Charles Hall, Phi Delta Theta; Bogue Harrison, Beta Theta Pi; and Fred Six. Phi Delta Theta, Jack Greer, senior in business, will be retained as secretary.
The men's intramural office is now accepting applications for freshman student intramural managers. Each organizational manager should turn in a typed application not later than Oct. 4. Not more than two applications may be submitted by each organization.
Swimming Pools—$4.20
Tallahassee, Fla—(UP) — Hollywood wouldn't believe it, but three GI students at the state university here took the stone foundation of an abandoned building, three bags of cement and two weeks' spare time, and turned into a swimming pool.
It cost them $4.20.
The pool is 11x24 feet and only 40 inches deep. But it's good for a shallow dive and a cooing dip anytime.

All Big 7 Teams In Action This Week; KU To Denver
By Bill Rosentreter
Kansas City, Mo. Sept. 20—(UP)—Big Seven conference members know today what to expect of the Kansas Jayhawkers, if they ever learn to hold onto the ball, and the Jayhawkers, themselves, hope to know what to expect of their conference rivals, come next Saturday night.
Iowa State performed as expected in easily disposing of a weak Iowa State Worker.
Iowa State performed at expected State Teachers team, 27-7, at Ames, but the major firing commences this week as students swing into action—Kansas starting it off Friday night against Denver University at Denver.
Highlighting the first big week of football will be the first conference clash—Iowa State at Nebraska—and three intersectional tilts.
Missouri, rich in experience and fortified with speed and size, invades powerful Ohio State at Columbus. Oklahoma flies to the west coast for an engagement with Santa Clara at San Francisco. These two opponents should give Big Seven followers an accurate line on the respective strength of the loop's 1948 favorites.
The third inter-sectional affair marks the debut of Kansas State's Wildcats under Ralph Graham. Illinois will be the foe at Champaign.
and while hopes are soaring at Manhattan, there isn't anyone so bold to predict anything except another loss in the long K-State string that now stands at 26.
The seventh member of the loop,
Colorado, which is making its conference football debut this season,
is host to New Mexico at Boulder.
In the wake of Saturday's first action, the watchword around the conference is "beware Kansas." Despite the 94 degree temperatures and pre-game fears concerning lack of reserves, the Jayhawkers (except for their fumbling) gave a commendable performance against a Texas Christian team that outweighed them more than 25 pounds to the man in the line.
