UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE, KANSAS
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1947
By JIM RAGLIN Daily Kansan Sports Editor
Kansas will go into the Oklahoma game undefeated. The Jahyhwaks have scored 122 points while holding their opponents to a total of 13. This gives them an average of 30.5 points a game against three points for the enemy.
Statistics showed Oklahoma a superior rushing team in the Sooner invasion of Texas but on pass defense the story changes. Bobby Layne is a great passer but it was his passes that enabled the Longhorns to defeat Oklahoma. It is doubtful if Layne is a better passer than Ray Evans. Add the passing ability of Hogan, Scott, and McNutt and it gives Kansas an air arm that can shoot pass-for-pass with the best. Oklahoma's pass defense will have to improve if they want to stop our Jayhawkers.
Nebraska's mediocre showings have aided in narrowing the Big Six title race down to Kansas and Oklahoma. Missouri has shown that it must be considered, but the Tigers do not have the balance of power possessed by either the Sooners or the Rangers. Norman this week-end should be the champ when the conference season ends.

Before the first game Sooner coach Bud Wilkinson was greatly worried about the knee operations on seven of his players during the summer. Ed Davis and Dave Wallace, both backfield men, Norman Mnabb, Jimmy Owens, Earl Hale, Myrie Garethouse, and Frankie Anderson, linemen, underwent the knife during vacation time. Judging from their experience, you must be successful. Last season Wallace place-kicked 28 of 32 conversion; and he has a three for four record this year.
Michigan will probably vault into first place among the nation's football teams. They trounced Pittsburgh while Notre Dame and Texas had their hands full defeating Purdue and Oklahoma. Nebraska will be certain to catch the full fury of the Irish this Saturday when the teams meet at South Bend. To get a line on the Cornhuskers and to have a look at what is supposed to be one of the greatest of all Irish teams, Cooper Rollow, University Daily Kansan sportswriter, is traveling to South Bend to see the game.

The most remarkable climb in the football world so far this season has been that of California university. Saturday the Bears waltzed away from Wisconsin to keep their undefeated record intact.
Lynn Waldorf, one-time coach at Kansas State but more recently head man at Northwestern, took over the coaching job at California and if the Bears continue the pace they have set in their last games, chances are Lynn will be a serious contender for Coach of the Year.
'They'll Not Outfight Us Our Gang Is Ready'--Sauer
"Our gang is ready," declared coach George Sauer before the K.U. Quarterback club Tuesday.
"They could have played the game yesterday. Our job is to keep them from getting too ready."
He explained that they might become tense and over-anxious.
We'll be outweighed and we,
we're outweighed and that's good
enough for us, he said.
"The Sooners haven't scared us. They may wip us but they'll not outfight or outhustle us. We're going to play them a real ball game, and I think we'll be able to come home with out heads up. We'll need all your support, but no pop bottles, please.
"We have nothing new to use against Oklahoma. It's too late to install any surprises. We'll just polish and maybe make a few variations."
Wayne Replogle, freshman coach, scouted the Sooner-Texas game. He described Oklahoma as "good and tough."
Dick Monroe, Hoyt Baker, and Joe Crawford may get into the game, he said, but Ed Lee, who received a hip injury last week, is still in the hospital.
Spur Club To KC Royal
"American Royal or Bust" will be the motto of the Spur club Saturday. The club is to participate in the 49th annual American Royal parade in Kansas City.
Club members are leaving Lawrence at 5:00 a.m. Saturday. The parade begins at 9:00 a.m. in front of the Municipal building and will wind through the heart of the city to the American Royal building.
In carrying out the theme of the parada, "spirit of 49," the club will use a chuck wagon painted in the colors of the University, crimson and blue. The wagon will be pulled by a matched team of horses.
Saturday morning the paraders are going to eat their breakfast from the chuck wagon, using old-time microwave, including a two-gallon coffee pot.
In parade order behind the band will be the lead horses, a pair of "paints;" then the chuck wagon with the sign, "American Royal or Bust;" then eight riders in formation.
The riders will wear red shirts with Jayhawker emblems. Their horses will have red saddle blankets with the emblem in the corner.
Jack Atherton, president of Spur club said that there would be a dress rehearsal tomorrow at Mott's stables.
Ashton, Patterson To Speak At Spanish Club Tomorrow
Dr. J. R. Ashton of the Spanish department and Ellen Patterson, College Junior, will speak at a meeting at 10 a.m. at the university night in 113 Frank Strong hall.
Dr. Ashton will speak on Spanish music, supplementing his talk with recordings. Miss Patterson's sub-specialist, Martine Sierra, Spanish dramatist.
Dr. H. B. Hungerford, professor of entomology, claims a misquote in last Tuesday's University Daily Kansan.
This Story Is All About One Little Female Beetle
In a story on the Japanese beetle, it was stated that the insect had appeared recently in this state. Professor Hungerford insists that according to record only one (1) female Japanese beetle has been found. That was July 14, 1945, at the corner of 21st street and Metropolitan avenue in Kansas City, Kans., by Paul L. Mize of the bureau of entomology and plant quarantine.
