Storybook finishes seem to be in store for three of the four intramural touch football divisions, as stronger teams pull away from weaker ones in the standings.
Leaders in each division are apparent, and, except for division one, they are not slated to meet until the final rounds.
The first game of the season in division one saw Phi Delta Theta defeat Sigma Phi Epsilon in what now looks like the championship battle. Phi Delt is still undefeated, and Sig Ep has only the one loss.
But it's a different tale in the other divisions.
In division two, Alpha Tau Omega and Sigma Alpha Epsilon both hold undefeated records and don't meet until Nov. 7.
Beta Theta Pi and Phi Kappa Psi are the standouts in division three with four and three wins, respectively, against no losses. These two eleven will tangle in the final round on Nov. 11.
The L.S.A. with only one loss in division four play has a remote chance to gum up the works, but the schedule brings Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma, Chi together on Nov. 12 in what probably will be the deciding game.
***
Both Sigma Chi and Phi Gam are undefeated with three wins each, and are favored to continue their winning streaks until they meet.
A vast improvement in the intramural program during the last few weeks is the sharp decline in the number of injuries.
Three fractures in the first two afternoons of play threatened to stop the entire program, but since that time, serious injuries have disappeared almost entirely.
This means that rough tactics are being used less than before, and that more attention is being paid to the rules of the game.
***
Rules of touch football require that the ball shall be dead when a defensive player touches the ball-carrier with both hands simultaneously. Action against the runner, other than touching, is to be penalized.
The football season is drawing to a close. But basketball, waiting offstage for its cue, probably will present an even bigger show.
About 50 teams are expected to enter regular intramural competition, and almost every organization will put both "A" and "B" teams on the floor.

It Takes A Lot Of Steak, Chicken To Keep Big Don Ettinger Going
BY JOHN FINCH
Daily Kansan Sports Editor
It's a toss-up between steak and "grandmother's fried chicken," but it takes a lot of both to feed this K.U. grid warrior.
Big Don "Red Dog" Ettinger outlined these menus as his favorite dishes, stretched his 6-foot 2-inch 197-pound frame, took a hitch in his pants, and launched into a discussion of his favorite subject, football.
Don has been playing the game for $ \textcircled{*} $
Don has been playing the game for nine years beginning at William Christman high school in Independence, Mo. He came to Mt. Oread in 1940, played freshman ball, and was a regular fullback for the Jayhawkers in 1941 before being shifted to center.
Don now holds down the left tackle spot which he considers "his place in the line because that's where they put me." He is another T-formation fan and "thoroughly enjoys" his present football position under Coach George Sauer.
"I played fullback with an eighth air force eleven called the High Fliers while I was overseas," Don said, "but the tackle position is o.k. with me."
Don became a physical training instructor in the army and led the London base command basketball team to a championship in 1943. He was also head mentor of the High Fliers basketball team which toured England and Scotland.
After 28 months overseas Don returned to the States and played with a football team organized from the personnel distribution command until he broke his leg and was discharged.
"We had our own airplane and pilots for cross-country trips," "Red" said, "and we had a pretty good time."
Before army service compelled Don to leave home he married an Independence girl, Doreen Lewis. Family plans had to wait because of the war but they are now the parents of an 8-month-old girl born in Independence.
"Her name is Gaye," Red said proudly, "and I really did want a girl. She's the best I've ever seen."
Don probably inherited from his father some of his athletic ability which extends to basketball and track. He played basketball under "Phog" Allen in 1940 and 1941 and lettered in track with a high jump leap of 6 feet 3 inches.
Red's wife is an athlete in her own right having competed in swimming matches while she was in high school. After a little urging from Don she admitted she "swam a little but I didn't break any records."
The football career of "Red Dog" has the sanction of Mrs. Ettinger but she believes the worst part is having to eat alone all the time.
Maybe between the football and basketball season Red can catch up on the home cooking.
Richard Collins was elected president, known as Robin Hood, of the Archery club at a recent meeting.
Collins Is Elected Archery Club Head
Other officers are Joe Cowdrey, vice-president, known as Little John; Margaret Logan, secretary-treasurer, Will Scarlet; and LaVaughn Hodson, publicity and tournament manager, Friar Tuck.
The archers shoot from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The club is open for new members and beginners will be coached by Collins and Mary Stark.

McNutt May Start At Quarter Saturday
Lynn McNutt may get the starting nod at quarterback for the Jayhawkers when they meet the Oklahoma Aggies Saturday.
Mc Nutt, former Northwestern back, did not see action in the Tulsa game. Coach George Sauer used the quarterback in scrimmage against the "B" squad Tuesday and indicated he may use McNutt against the Aggies.
Injuries will still be a big factor in the Jayhawker lineup, but most of the regulars with the exception of Bud French, left half, and Otto Schnellbacher, pass-catching end, have participated in scrimmage.
Scrimmage Tuesday employed the "B" team using offensive tactics of the Oklahoma Aggies against the Varsity. The "B" squad went through the regular line for long gains, and the Aggie passing attack, used by the subs, proved effective.
