UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE. KANSAS
FRIDAY,FEBRUARY 6,1948
By BOB DELLINGER Daily Kansan Sports Editor
The guy just doesn't want to play any more football! That's the story of Ray Evans, Kansas 1947 and only all-American football player. If he decides to play pro ball, it will be because the moneyed moguls make him an offer that it would be insane to refuse.
Pittsburgh Steeler Coach Jock Sutherland came all the way out here to see what he could do about signing the fellow recommended by Grantland Rice as the country's most valuable grid star. Southern left without Evans or any promise that his visit had brought results.
Meanwhile, Heismann trophy winner Johnny Lujack of Notre Dame signed with the Chicago Bears of the same National league, for a salary reported around $20,000 a year. And local reports have it that Ray was getting similar offers from the Steelers. Twenty G's is a lot of money, but the guy's been playing football for 12 years, and maybe he's tired.
Arch Ward of the Chicago Tribune noticed in his column that the Kansas athletic department had awarded Ray his no. 42 jersey for permanent retirement from the Crimson and Blue ranks.

Coach Bill Easton's indoor track squad takes the boards at Columbia tonight, opening the season with the Missouri Tigers. The Tigers, defending conference champions, have most of their championship squad back from last year and are heavily favored, but the K.U. team will be of Bob Karnes and Tom Schofield, greatly strengthened by the presence outdoor champs in their events.
Jack Phoenix, giant 6-foot, 9-inch center of Idaho university, has been declared ineligible for further competition with the Vandals. It seems
that in the Pacific Coast conference the eligibility rules were written to be observed rather than just to decorate the books.
A headline in the Des Moines Register sports section caught our eye the other day. It read, "Notre Dame Coach's Birthday—And Who Walks In But Kentucky"—1947 score: Kentucky 60, Notre Dame 30." The only flaw in the Register's prediction of a sad birthday anniversary was caused by the Irish's 64 to 55 upset of the favored Southerners for their 38th straight home-court victory. Kevin O'Shea of Notre Dame, who scored four points against Kansas, rang in nine goals and seven frees to stay ahead of Kentucky's Groza (23) and Beard (19).
