UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS
NOVEMBER 5,1946
BY BOB DELLINGER Daily Kansan Sports Writer
Kansas' stunning upset of a heavier team from Oklahoma A & M has brought the Jayhawkers back into the Midwest football spotlight.
The Jayhawkier victory Saturday didn't help any in the Big Six standings, but it did help restore some Kansas prestige which was lost at Tulsa the week before.
With still an outside chance at a first division berth in the Big Six, the Jayhawkers take on the biggest of the Oklahoma "big three" as they tangle with the O.U. Sooners here this week.
The revitalized Kansas eleven will be shooting for an even more startling upset as they take on a team which gave plenty of trouble to two of the nation's greats, Texas and Army.
Can Kansas beat Oklahoma?
This is the question which has circulated around Mt. Oread since Saturday afternoon, and which has boomed ticket sales for the game.
The line play of the Jayhawkers against the Aggies' enormous forward wall has suggested the possibility of another K.U. victory.
Several Kansas linenmen were consistently in the Cowpoke backfield effectively bottling up the Aggie flash. Bob Fenimore.
Behind the line, the Kansas backfield moved like a well-knit machine which brought back memories of pre-season predictions.
But remember, it was the Sooner forward wall which outplayed Army for 60 minutes and limited the famous "touchdown twins", Blanchard and Davis, to nominal gains from scrimmage.
Behind the "great wall" of the Sooners will be the two sharp breakaway stars, Jack Mitchell and Joe Golding, two big problems for the Crimson and Blue.
There is no doubt that the Jayhawkers played their best game of the year Saturday. They played the type of ball which might bring even greater upsets for the rest of the season.
The Jayhawkers issued a challenge to Oklahoma, Kansas State, and Missouri.
The question is—Can they do it again?
***

each method of scoring (safety, field
goal, touchdown, and conversion)
was used once and only once.
Achievement of the week: A 109-yard run by Bob Pelidor, Villanova sub, in the closing minutes of the game with Miami. The run tied a record set by Edmund Burke of Mississippi in 1931.

Sig Ep, TKE, Delta Tau, Beta 'B Win Intramural Touch Football
Sigma Phi Epsilon, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Delta Tau Delta, and the Beta Theta Pi "B" team were victorious in touch football games played Monday afternoon. Delta Chi Triangle, Pi Kappa Alpha, and Sigma Nu "B" were the respective losers.
Five men took a hand in scoring as the Sig Eps handed the Delta Chis a 20 to 0 loss. Jarrell passed to Wrglesworth for one score and Crabaugh shot an aerial to Ogg for a second. Garich counted the third 6-pointer on the runback of an intercepted pass. The remaining two points were chalked up against the Delta Chis on a safety.
The TKE's nosed out Triangle 12
to 6 on two Linthicum to Beach scoring passes. The last payoff came late in the game after a Thomas to Tyde aerial had enabled Triangle to knot the score.
The Delts scored the one touchdown of the game on a pass from Brownell to Harris as they edged out the Pi K A's 6 to 0.
Varsity Grid Team Holds Aerial Drills
The Beta kept their "B" schedule victory string intact as they shut out the Sigma Nu second team 12 to 0. Bill "Bullet" Beeson pegged a long pass to Johnson for one counter. The second touchdown came when Engle blocked a Sigma Nu punt and Mosser grabbed the ball to race over the goal line.
Passing drills were on tap for the Kansas Jayhawkers early this week as they prepare for their Big Six tilt with the University of Oklahoma Saturday.
The squad watched movies of the A. and M. game before taking the practice field Monday. All men, with the exception of Hoyt Baker, fullback, who was injured Saturday, are in good physical condition.
Bill "Red" Hogan was suited up but only for picture-taking purposes. He was posed in the stadium giving up his crutches in favor of a football.
