Ray Evans, Jayhawker football star, has turned down an offer to play professional football with the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Professional Football league.
It was understood that Dr. John Sutherland of the Steelers had called Evans long distance and Evans made known his decision at that time. Sutherland was in Lawrence two weeks ago and talked to Evans.
Evans Turns Down Pro Grid Offer
Meanwhile, the Pittsburgh Steelers will continue efforts to sign Ray Evans, a club spokesman said.
Charles E. Grey Elected President Of Geology Club
It was believed that Evans has been offered about $20,000 to sign with the Steelers. The club spokesman said he did not believe Evans was trying tot bid up his price by dickering with the San Francisco 49ers of the All-American conference, but was considering a deal which would bring him considerably less than what the Steelers are willing to pay.
Friends said Evans had several offers, both football and business, and that he probably would make up his mind in the next few days. Evans has indicated he favors going into business rather than professional football.

Fiends, Lawyers Tied
Albuquerque, N. M. — (UP) — A 22-year-old divorced father of two children had a novel explanation when arrested for theft. He said he took the merchandise because he wanted to be sent to Father Flannagan's Boys Town in Nebraska.
Second Childhood Already?
Deep Freeze Is Respected
New York, Feb. 16—(UP)—Oklahoma A. & M.'s Calculatin' Cowboys, who operate on the old saw that "possession is nine points of the law," were getting revised respect today from a lot of shrewd observers who think they are headed for their third national basketball title in four years.
The "Deep Freeze" kids from Stillwater, Okla., virtually clinched the Missouri Valley conference championship by topping St. Louis university's Billikens for the second straight time, 47 to 38, in what generally was considered the most significant game last week.
Previously, St. Louis had been rated the nation's number one team, having lost only to the Aggies in an earlier match, while winning 16 games. But when Coach Henry Iba's Aggies tied the Billikens a second time, the experts switched to their bandwagon. The Ags have won 21 games and lost but two, to Depaul and Kansas State.
Won In '45 And '46
In order to quality for a section berth in the national collegiate tournament, which they won in 1945 and 1946, the Aggies have to clinch their conference crown officially, then defeat the winner of the Big Seven race in a sectional playoff.
Even in defeat, the Billikens came close to assuring themselves of a national invitational tournament berth, since they made a rousing hit in Madison Square Garden, and probably would be welcomed into the brackets if they lose no more games.
Holy Cross and Columbia also looked like safe bets for N.C.A.Tournament berths while New York University was figured a "Shoo-in" for the invitational.
The Holy Cross Crusaders, defending N.C.A.A. champions, now have won 16 games and lost three and are the New England standouts. Columbia must vie with New York U. for the Mid-Atlantic berth but it seemed likely that the Lions would go to the N.C.A.A., while the Violets will accept an invitational bid since they are regular Madison Square Garden performers. They are the only unbeaten teams left in the nation, New York having won 16 games and Columbia 14.
Holy Cross Strong Again
MP Wants Skater To Go To College
Ottawa, Can. Feb. 16. — (UP)—Jean Richard, Liberal member of parliament, urged Prime Minister W. McGownie King today to recommend that the government pay for a university course for Barbara Ann Scott, newly-crowned world's figure skating champion.
Mr. Richard, said he was making the suggestion because he understood Miss Scott wished to remain an amateur and therefore could not accept a cash prize from her proud countrymen.
He said that the government should undertake to send her to a university of her own choosing for whatever studies she wished to pursue.
More Night Tilts In NL This Season
New York, Feb. 16—(UP)—Although one of its members, the Chicago Cubs, still frowns on afterdark tilts, the National league has set aside approximately one quarter of its 1948 schedule for night games, it was revealed today with release of the schedule for the coming season.
President Ford Frick approved a senior loop slate of 616 games, 163 of which will be night contests. The American league already has announced scheduling of 194 night games, but the ratio between the leagues remain almost identical since all stalia in the junior circuit now are outfitted with lights.
Postponement of early season games are expected to be lessened this year since the first game is not scheduled until April 19, nearly a week later than last season. Pittsburgh plays at Cincinnati on that date.
The general openers follow the next day, April 20, in which Brooklyn plays at New York, Boston at Philadelphia, Chicago at Pittsburgh, and Cincinnati at St. Louis.
