I-M Football Victories By Beta's, NROTC, ATO
Fourteen touch football “A” teams meet on intramural gridirons Tuesday to fight out another step up the ladder to a division championship.
Beta Theta Pi and Dine-A-Mite led the scoring by rolling up 26 points each while their opponents, Delta Upsilon and Oread hall respectively, went scoreless. N.R.O.T.C. nosed out Army, 9 to 7. Alpha Tau Omega shut out Sigma Alpha Epsilon, 12 $\textcircled{12}$
to 0. Smith hall likewise blanked Spooner-Thayer, h1 to 0. Phi Delta Theta finished ahead of Kappa Sigma, 7 to 0, and Phi Kappa Psi won from Lambda Chi Alpha by the same score.
BETA 26. DU 0
Schwanzle, Beta aerial artist, threw all four touchdown passes to pace his team in their defeat of D.U.
A few minutes after the opening kick-off Woolcott completed passes to Glad and Sturdivant to advance the D.U.'s to the Beta 21, but after four unsuccessful aerials, the Beta's took over on downs. Schwanze tossed to Cramer and again to Jones to put the ball on on the D.U. 30-yard line. A final touch, Schwanze to Timmons, gave Beta their first tally. Spencer's kick was short.
In the second period the Beta's stacked up 14 points on passes from Schwanzle to Chase and Stites. The final Beta touchdown came when Schwanzle, after gathering in a D.U. punt, heaved to Winter. Trapped by the D.U. defense, Winter lateralled to Schell who scooted to the end zone from mid-field. Bill Jones kicked both extra points for the Betas.
Oread hall bowed before a Dine-
A-Mite four-touchdown aerial at-
tack. Taggert pitched all scoring
passes.
DINE-A-MITE 26. OREAD HALL 0
Vaughn set up the first Dine-A-Mite trip to pay dirt when he blocked an Oread hall pump on the fourth play of the game. Two downs later Taggert tossed to Kendrick again and line for six points. Again in the second half, Taggert heaved a scoring pass, this time for 40 yards to Moore.
On the opening kick-off of the second half, Haggert trew a long pass which bounced off a defensive man's knee into the arms of Beevell. A series of passes carried well. A series of Dine-A-Mite 10. At this point the only Oread hall scoring threat died.
In the final stanza, Haggert threw to Laughlin and again to Hayes to end the scoring. Bush kicked two conversions successfully for Dine-A-Mite.
N.R.O.T.C. 9, ARMY 7
Arnold and Williams handled the Oread hall passing chores.
A safety, scored on mobile infra-
nion, gave N.R.O.T.C. the two points which meant victory for them over Army.
Receiving the kick-off in the end zone, following N.R.O.T.C. touchdown in the initial period, Barley, Army back, took too many steps before getting out and the official called for a pay dirt pass, Dorge to Avotte, and a conversion by Ricks ended the Navy scoring.
A.T.O. 12. SIG ALPH 0
In the second period, York intercepted a Navy pass and returned it 50 yards to the Navy 30. From here, Barley passed to Cloak for the only Army tally. Cox passed to Barley for the point after touchdown.
The first scoring play was set up when the Sig Alphs gambled for a first and ten on their own 18-yard line and lost the ball. Taking the ball on downs, the A.T.O.'s scored on a toss, Eskridge to Mason.
After a scoreless first half, Jack Eskridge flipped scoring aerials in the third and fourth quarters to give the A.T.O.'s a 12-point triumph over the Sig Alphs.
Midway in the final period, Eskridge completed a pass in the end zone, this time with Weidensaul on the receiving end. Thompson did most of the Sig Alph passing with Rosenfield blocking for him. Rough line played numerous penalties against both teams.
SMITH HALL 18. SPOONER 0
The Reber to Savevedra aerial team netted Smith hall three touchdowns which proved too much for the men from Spooner-Thayer.
Only in the fourth period did Spooner-Thayer near the opposing goal line. Spurred by the Reed to Meyer pass combination, they moved to the Smith 12-yard line but an interception by Saavedra stifted the drive.
The Smith tallies came in the first, second and fourth periods, all on Reber to Saavedra aerials.
PHI DELT 7. KAPPA SIG 0
Although both teams presented serious scoring threats in the first half, it was a third quarter pass, Quiring to Williams, that gave the Phi Delta victory over the Kappa Sigs.
In the first period, an aerial attack, with Don Price passing, took the Kappa Sig's to the Phi Delt 7-yard line. Phi Delts knuckled down, however, and took the ball on downs.
A 50 yard aerial, Quiring to McIlrath, put the Phi Delts on the Kappa Sig 8-yard line on the opening play of the second stanza. After being set back to the 18 on a penalty and a loss on a down, Quiring dipped a shovel-pass to McIlrath, who moved down to the 5-yard line as the half ended.
PHI PSI 7, LAMBDA C. A. 0
An end run from the 10-yard line by Bob Mecerre in the first period, gave Phi Psi the touchdown they needed to knock-off Lambda Chi Alpha.
A 35 yard pass, Scott Kelly to Bill Cavanaugh, put the ball on the Lambda Chi 10 to set up the game's only tally. On the next play Mercer rounded the opposition's flank and crossed into the end zone.
Baker Loses Cast; Monroe Gets One
The game was largely a defensive battle, featuring the punting of Joe Dummire for the Phi Psi's and Jerry Crawford of the Lambda Chi's. Kelly took care of most Phi Psi passing while Meek and Rowe tossed for the Lambda Chi's.
Kansas football forces traded one knee cast for another here today as they continued preparations for their game Saturday against South Dakota State.
Fullback Hoyt Baker, hospitalized with a twisted knee last week, was sawed out of his plaster brace early today, but Center Dick Monroe, who also has been limping on a wrenched knee, drew another from Team Physician Robert Jordan and will be on crutches Saturday.
George I. Worrall, engineering senior, has been elected president of the University chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. Other officers elected are James M. Ralls, engineering junior, vice-president; Eugene E. Sallee, engineering senior, secretary; Ward A. Graham engineering senior, treasurer.
"We would like to have both boys ready for Oklahoma two weeks from now," Coach George Sauer explained. "Baker is coming along fine and probably will be in suit by Monday."
In the meantime Sauer said he would continue to concentrate on his younger players, giving them action Saturday.

KU Shows Form Against Cyclones
Kansas City. Mo. — (UP) — On paper, Oklahoma and Missouri are still out in front in the Big Six loop—but the fans and sports writers who saw Kansas turn on that championship form to roll over Iowa State last week add that third name to the list of Mid-West crown contenders.
Though the statistics leave the Jayhawkers well behind Oklahoma and Missouri, they also show Kansas trailing Iowa State in most categories. All of which goes to prove figures can lie.
Missouri, after three games in the 1947 season, still leads Big Six teams in net yards gained. The Tigers have picked up 873 yards—700 of them by rushing. Oklahoma boasts a total of 572 yards after playing only two games. Kansas trails in the statistical columns with a measly 566 net.
Tigers Have Most Yardage
The top ball carrier after three weeks of play was Oklahoma's Jack Mitchell, with a net gain of 230 yards to his credit after carrying the ball 37 times. Missouri's Dick Braznell ranked second on the ground, netting 127 yards in 20 tries.
Despite his rough treatment at the hands of Kansas forwards in last week's game, Ron Norman of Iowa State led loop passers after three games by a very comfortable margin. The Cyclone quarterback boasts a net gain of 274 yards with 17 attempts for 49 attempts. Nebraska's Del Weigand was Norman's nearest competitor with 122 yards gained in eight connections for 24 tries.
Baker A Top Punter
Harold Bryan, Kansas State, was out in front of the punters with a 43.4 yard average for 19 kicks. Fullback Hoyt Baker was runner-up in the punt department with a 43-yard average for two tries .
Sooner Mitchell topped the league in scoring with 18 points in two games. Evans of Kansas, Damkroger, Nebraska, Laun, Iowa State, and Hulse and Quirk of Missouri were all knotted for second place honors with 12 points each.
'Unripe Gold Is Used Again
Platinum is returning to its original use in jewelry from service in the wartime industries, notes the National Geographic society.
The metal will stay on the United States strategic materials list because more than nine-tenths of our requirement must be imported. However, more and more of this precious metal will find its way into rings, watches, and costume jewelry. Called "Unripe Gold"
The beauty and utility of the silvery metal was ignored for centuries. The Columbian Indians scornfully called it "unripe gold." Men were hanged in South America and Tsarist Russia for attempting to substitute it for silver and gold.
Only since World War I has platinum found a broad market in the jewelry world. Within the same period countless practical applications in industry have developed. New methods have increased world platinum production.
Canada has produced nearly half of the world's 520,000-ounce annual production in recent years. South Africa, Australia, Spain, Panama, Australia, and several other lands are important producers. The Goodnews bay district of Alaska yields 20,000 or more ounces in its annual dredging season.
