UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS

Iowa State's high geared offensive showing against a good Iowa Teacher's eleven opened the way for considerable comment on the Cyclone's possibilities. Several Iowa sports-writers have already elevated their native team for the fourth place slot in the final Big Six standings. Ron Norman, also a basketball ace, led his team to their decisive 31-14 win

Thanks to eight Oklahoma A. and M. fumbles, six of which Kansas State recovered, the Wildcats from Manhattan were able to hold the Cowboys to a 12-0 triumph. Game statistics show the Okies as a much superior outfit. The Cowpokes totaled 17 first downs to Kansas State's three. The A. and M. line tossed the wildcat runners for a net loss of two yards. Kansas State threw 15 passes and completed three for 39 yards giving them a total of 37 yards gained for the game. The Wildcats were held for downs on the Oklahoma A. and M. one-yard line late in the battle.

Dick Thompson, Nebraska's first string quarterback, suffered a painful knee injury that will sideline him for a week. Thompson received the injury in a scrimmage Saturday. He is the last of three brothers to play for the Cornhuskers. His father is Dean of Student Affairs at the Lincoln school. Nebraska opens Saturday against the University of Indiana.

John Sherrod, Texas Christian back who completed a pass in Saturday's muddle, is a nephew of "Bo" McMillan, Indiana's long-time coach. Sherrod lettered at T.C.U. in 1944 before entering the service.

Washburn has been picked to win the Central conference title. One reason the scribes pre-picked the Ichabods is LeRoy Harmon, 200-pound fullback and former Jayhawk letterman. Harmon battered over the first Washburn touchdown against the Peru (Neb.) Teachers Saturday and Washburn women 12-6.
The name Jack Dempsey still makes the turnstiles hum. The Mamassa Mauler is scheduled to appear to referee a wrestling match in Topeka Oct. 4. The match is one of the many heavyweight championship title bouts being held that night. Somehow it hurts to see a real champion in the same ring with the grunt and groaners, all of whom are or have been the world's champion at some time or other.
Only 16 Men Out For I-M Conference
Sixteen independent men met with Don Powell, intramural director, Monday to discuss the organization of independent intramural football teams.
Powell stated he was disappointed that more men did not attend the meeting. He again urged that everyone who wanted to play on an independent team sign up at his office, 107 Robinson gymnasium.
The deadline for entries in intramural fall sports is Thursday. All fall sports except football will be individual competition.
Calls For YMCA Athletes
Bruce Bathurst, head of Y. M. C. A. athletics, said today that men who wanted to play intramural football on a Y. M. C. A. team should sign up in the organization's office in the Union lounge, before Thursday. He said non-Y. M. C. A. members are eligible.
Pharmacy Fraternity
Kappa Psi, professional pharmacy fraternity, will welcome Joseph H. Burkhalter, new associate professor of pharmaceutical chemistry, at an informal dinner in the Pine room of the Union at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.
All pharmacy professors and members of Kappa Psi are invited.
Football Hits Early Stride; Few Games Easy Guesses
It's that time of the year again, and swarms of football players will troop out on the gridirons into all of the color and excitement that makes for thrills and chills as hundreds of thousands of fans watch the season begin to hit full stride.
Here it comes, folks,the first big weekend of the football season
Army will use on the spot a Saturday, meeting the rugged Villamagna team that defeated Merriam Marine academy Saturday by 60 to 0, and let the second, third, and fourth teams do the dirty work, at that.
Ohio State plans to roll over Missouri, but the Tiger still has a few tricks up his sleeve, particularly in the backfield.
U. C. L. A. may have all of its hands full with Iowa, who demolished north Dakota State 59 to 0 Sat. in the early morning. Infinite, dark boys, in the, Big Nine.
T. C. U. will try out that promised passing attack (remember?) against Alabama (L.), and the Aggies don’t have Fenne this year. But neither does T. C. U.

ISA To Back Teams In I-M
The Independent Student association council decided Monday to support one or more independent intramural teams this year.
Robert Casad, College sophomore was appointed sophomore men's representative on the council, and Joan Amick, College junior, was appointed junior women's representative. Three vacancies on the council will be filled at the next meeting.
Mr. Powell, in expressing hope that action be taken, explained that the intramural directors have felt for some time that independent participation in sports was not strong enough. And in an attempt to remedy this, a direct appeal would be made to the council. The plan would take independent men who are willing to play and find sponsors for them to give the men a better chance to enjoy competitive sports.
This action, urged by Don Powell, director of intramural athletics, will be on a much broader scale than last year's attempt at sponsoring teams.
In order to promote membership and give information about the I.S.A. the council will have a table in the Union lounge today through Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The first social event on the I.S.A. calendar will be a watermelon feed, Friday, September 26. The program will start at 6 p.m.
There will be dancing from 7 to 9:30 p.m.; the music by records.
Idaho has been the leading silver producing state in the United States since 1933.

Slosson Fund Gets $2,000
A gift of $2,000 to the University association for continuation of the Edwin Emery Slosson scholarship in science was announced Monday by Cancellor Deane W. Malott.
The gift was given by Preston W. Slosson of Ann Arbor, Mich., son of the original donor, who also intends to transfer Texas real estate valued at approximately $4,000 to the fund.
The late E. E. Slosson was graduated from the University in 1890. He achieved fame as a chemist and later pioneered the interpretation of scientific fact into laymen's language. For many years he edited Science Service. He died in 1929.
The $500 scholarship was not awarded during the war years because of the lack of qualified students.
