Story Without Words----The Kick That Won It
The clock showed 75 seconds to play. The fans huddled under umbrellas. Paul Turner's foot swung against a sodden, water-soaked football. And this picture "scoop" of the football season shows what happened. The ball's at the top, and a second later, it had
descended over the cross-bar of the goal posts to give Kansas a sweet (though muddy) 16-13 victory over Oklahoma, here Saturday. Duke D'Ambra, Lawrence photographer, struggling under a waterproof rain cape, was the only cameraman left on the field.
W.S.S.F. Drive Will Continue
With less than half the $5,000 goal reached, the World Student Service Fund drive will be continued this week in an attempt to reach every student on the campus, Ned Linegar, treasurer of the drive, said today.
The cash total now stands at $2,353.08, he reported, with $1,000 in pledges still outstanding. He estimated that only 60 percent of the student body had been contacted.
The auction Friday night at the Military Science building netted $550, he announced.
The highest price was paid for a collie dog, "Doug," who went to Beta Theta Pi for $75. Chancellor Deane W. Malott brought $70 as a study hall keeper, and a cocker spaniel puppy, "Night Storm," went to Delta Gamma for $47.50

'Walkout' They Cried But No One Tried
University fraternity members had an extra course with their lunch today.
"Meet at 1 this afternoon in Frank Strong for a walkout to celebrate the football victory," they heard.
There was only one trouble—the walkout didn't materialize. A few scattered men stood in small groups in the Frank Strong lobby, talking over the game, but as class time approached, they left, presumably for education instead of a rally.
U.S. Asks For Peace On Armistice Day
Washington. (UP) - President Truman in Armistice day services here today said that the United States wants nothing from present world negotiations except peace.
A color guard of marines, sailors, and soldiers flanked the tomb as the President stepped forward to place his wreath of chrysanthemums on the tomb. The President was accompanied to the cemetery by Navy Secretary James Forrestal, Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson and his military aides.
The President led the nation in the 28th observance of the day that marks the end of World War I, laying a wreath on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington national cemetery.
Kansas—Clear to partly cloudy and somewhat warmer today, increasing cloudiness tonight. Warmer in the northwest quarter. Low 25 to 32. Partly cloudy to cloudy Tuesday and slightly warmer in the extreme east. Rain or snow and colder in west.

Single Men To City By Next Semester
The housing office hopes to have all single men living in Lawrence by the second semester, Irvin Youngberg, housing director, said today.
Applications for Sunnyside still are being accepted, he said. When it is finished (he would not estimate completion date) all residents of the Sunflower dormitories and some of the 583 K.U. families living in Sunflower village will be moved into town.
The dormitory west of the stadium will be finished and ready for occupancy by the end of the month, Mr. Youngberg said.
Dance Manager Position Is Open
Applications for student Varsity dance manager will be accepted this week, Charles Hall, social chairman of the All Student Council, announced today.
Applications must be turned in to Hall at 1111 West 11th before Nov. 18, he said.
The vacancy will be created by the resignation of Larry McSpadden, present Varsity dance manager, immediately after settlement of the midwke dance dispute by the student court, Hall said.
Varsity Debate Squad Will Meet Tomorrow
The Varsity Debate squad will have its regular meeting at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in 105 Green hall.
Prof. Domenico Gagliardo, of the department of economics, will lead a discussion on labor problems.
Women Must Sign For K-State Game
"All student women going to the K.U.-K. State game Saturday must sign out in my office before they leave," Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women, said today.
Written permission from home is necessary before any woman student can sign out, Miss Habein added.
Another Cynic Swims Potter Lake After K.U.'s Victory
It doesn't pay to bet on a K.U. football game, especially where Potter lake is concerned.
Warren Shaw, sophomore engineer, made the statement Friday night that he would follow the example set by William Hatch and Derrold Wiley last week and swim in the lake if K.U. won Saturday.
He swam.
After his brief plunge, he walked home to 1653 Indiana. He commented that the walk in the rain was swell—it warmed him up.
Icelanders Present Concert Tonight
Wearing the colors of their new republic, 36 male Icelandic singers will present a program of classical and folk songs at 8:20 tonight in Hoch auditorium.
Songs of Iceland, lullabies and American folk songs will be sung by the group, directed by Sigurd Thordarson.
Students activity books will admit.
K.U. Basketball Tickets On Sale
Applications for the Jayhawker home basketball game tickets will be taken from activity book holders for a week beginning Wednesday, E. C. Quigley, director of athletics, announced today.
Each activity book owner may apply for four games, half of the home season. These games will be split into two sets:
Set A -Idaho, Iowa State,
Nebraska, and Oklahoma.
Set B- Missouri, Kansas State,
Oklahoma A. & M., and Colorado.
The sets will be assigned to students on the basis of activity book numbers. Howard Engleman, All Student Council president, will be asked to "flip a coin" to determine whether the odd or even-number activity tickets set Set A.
The "season" tickets will not be reserved. No basketball tickets will be offered for sale to faculty, alumni, or others until all students have been accommodated during the application week.
"These student tickets are strictly non-transferable," Mr. Quigley emphasized. "We will check the gates at the basketball games, and require students to show their activity books as well as the tickets. We want to be certain the students get the break on this setup, but in all fairness, we also want to be sure they aren't selling their tickets to outsiders."
Hoch auditorium, site of the home games, will accommodate about 3,500 spectators—including about 500 in the second balcony, from where the entire floor is not visible.
Capper Visits Campus
Arthur Capper, United States senator from Kansas, visited the campus today.
