Oklahoma Sportswriters 'Beef About Jayhawker Victories
Coach George Sauer and members of his football staff will leave Monday for a 10 day tour of Kansasowns and high schools.
The group will meet with civic organizations and clubs and will show pictures of some of the K. U. football games, played this season.
***
"We'll also be looking around," Sauer said, "we have a number of men we want to see."
The trip will include visits to Junction City, Neodesha, Chanute, Hoisington, Kinsley, Hutchinson, Coffeyville, and Belleville.
Even though Oklahoma now leads the Big Six conference and can do no worse than get a tie for the championship, the Sooners can't get the K. U. game off their minds.
Photographs published in an Oklahoma daily after the game show two instances of what the paper calls "infractions of the rules which the referee didn't catch."
Both show Kansas players in action with the Sooners on the defensive. One picture is of the quarterback sneak which Lynne McNutt pulled to score a K.U. touchdown. In the line is a Kansas player who probably came out from the mud with his arm raised to get the goo out of his eyes. At any rate it's a perfectly normal pose. With his arm drawn back, however, he's "ready to put the slug" on an Oklahoma player according to the caption.
In another photo, Ray Evans is being tackled by one Sooner and another is ready to pile on. An unidentified Jayhawker is chasing the second player and is trying to block him out. In the process and the split
second it takes to snap the shutters,
it appears that "a Kansan is holding
one of the Sooners" according
to the paper.
Actually the K.U. players' hands are clinched and he is running behind the Oklaoman with his hands near the small of the Sooners back. If the Jayhawker can hang on with closed fists, more power to him.

In another column an Oklahoma sportswriter can't get the KU.- Oklahoma A. & M. game off his mind.
He's still disputing the referee's decision on the first kick the Aggies made which would have tied the game at 14 to 14. He said that Official Ted O'Sullivan did not blow his whistle in time to stop the play which culminated in the kick.
Well, the motion pictures of the game show that Mr. O'Sullivan did blow his whistle in plenty of time that the play was properly called back.
As one sage has put it, "Let them write what they want to; the records still show a victory for the Jay-hawkers."

Both Ray Evans and Dick Bertuzzi are reported to have the "fifttest pairs of broglans in the Big six conference." The flat feet have little effect on the fleet backs, however; they have certainly made a good account of themselves this season.
Evans is a contender for four individual Big Six championships in net yards gained, in running, punt returns, touchdowns, and net yards passing. Bertuzzi ranks high among the conference ground gainers and is an alert blocker and tackler.
Chow, Ex-Chinese Soldier, Is Cheerful About Subsistence Check Long Overdue
Think you've got subsistence troubles. Mac?
Chi C. Chow, Chinese student from Hangchow, has been here since June and not only hasn't received any subsistence checks, but hasn't even had an apologetic letter from his government.
"I presume payments were held up because of internal crises and unsettled conditions in China," Chow says.
Despite the noncommittal attitude of the Chinese government, Chow cheerfully predicts he will have his money by Jan. 1. Meanwhile he bides his time, living off his savings and chewing his fingernails as he watches his bank account steadily dwindle.
"Tm really living close to the budget," he says.
If worst comes to worst, Chow says he will go to work, but a heavily loaded academic schedule will not permit him many hours for a part-time job. No limit is placed on the amount of outside work he can do, though, and he doesn't have to report his extra-curricular earnings every semester.
He is one of 50 Chinese students now studying in the United States under a system set up by his country to reward some of its soldiers for their part in the war. Like his contemporary, the American ex-GI. Chow has to prove periodically that he is eligible for subsistence. Reports of his grades are made every semester and "there is no money for fl pks."
If Chow's subsistence is retroactive to June, as he hopes it will be, he'll be something of a millionaire when he gets it. Based on recent currency exchange rates, he should receive roughly $1,120,000 in Chinese money. That's $560 in U.S. currency, but the way Chow feels about the delay, it will seem like the former. "I think the payments will be very
"We have much red tape too," he said, "and I have to fill out an attendance certificate every semester certifying that I'm still in school."
K.U. Veteran Turns Contractor For Own Home, Six Others
Friends in China wrote him that "the money is coming" and the Chinese government instructed all the students before they left the country to be sure to stay in school. His monthly allowance is $80 in American money, not including tuition, books, and fees.
regular once they get started," Chow onines hoefully,
Robert Dominick, Engineering sophomore, took the housing problem into his own hands here last spring and now has built his own home and six others in Lawrence.
"I wanted to get married and couldn't find an apartment in town, so I just contracted for the building of my own home," the ex-army pilot explained.
A sophomore, Chow is studying chemical engineering at KU. He was an interpreter for American forces in China during the war.
Starting on a shoe-string with no previous contracting or building experience, Dominick hired workmen and bought building supplies to start his home at 2145 Barker street.
"I started a second house on the rear of my lot to speed up the building tempo so that my wife could move here from Kansas City," the 22-year-old Kansas City veteran said. When materials were not available for one house, work could be resumed on the other, he pointed out.
Most of his houses are sold before ground is spaded for the foundation. Dominick says. University students and professors have purchased most of the homes, which sell for about $7,500.
The student contractor now has four houses completed and three more nearing completion. He now is building factory-built prefabricated houses which come with sides assembled for construction. Two are concrete block houses and the other five are frame construction, averaging four to five rooms.
He explained that all money made on sales is immediately applied to future home construction.
"I'll continue to sell and build houses in Lawrence until I'm graduated from the University," Dominick said.
"I don't know what type of work I'll do after graduation, but it won't be contracting." Dominick added.
Only 200 Tickets Left For Sale
Only 200 basketball tickets are left.
Monday, the first day the tickets were on sale to the general public,
approximately 800 were sold.
Students are still permitted to purchase the tickets although they no longer have priority. About 100 students applied Monday, and all others who plan to buy tickets are advised to do so as quickly as possible.
