UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE. KANSAS
OCTOBER 23,1946
By BILL SIMS (Daily Kansan Sports Writer)
The Nebraska game proved how much the Jayhawkers are hampered by the loss of Bill "Red" Hogan. When Hogan suffered a broken leg in the Denver game, everyone thought the Kansans would find a capable replacement.
It seemed in the next two games that the Jayhawkers would do all right despite "Red's" injury. But when the first tough game rolled around, it was obvious that Hogan might have meant the difference between victory and defeat at the Homecoming game.
Evans did a good job from his quarterback position considering it was the first time he had handled this job in a full game. You can't expect a player to become as good a quarterback in two weeks as someone who has been trained for several years.
McNutt also turned in a good job after entering the game late in the fourth quarter, but he can't compare to Hogan or Evans as a passer. With McNutt playing, Evans shifts back to his halfback slot, and the Jayhawkers can make good use of his powerful running.
Hogan's leg seems to be healing all right, and he probably will get to play in the last two games for the Jayhawkers. It will help Kansas a lot if "Red" is able to play in these games with Kansas State and Missouri.
车车
The gridiron sport has accounted for almost as many injuries already this season as during the whole season last fall. This is true not only in collegiate competition but also in high school and sandlot football.
The only apparent reason is that participants are playing harder than before. They are blocking hard and tackling viciously. Certainly the equipment should be as good if not better this year than before.
Take our own squad. The Jayhawkers have had men injured in every game this fall. The most serious injuries have been Penny's concussion and Hogan's broken leg, but the others have been severe enough to keep the player out of action for the rest of the game or several games.
Small hasn't seen action yet as a result of an injury suffered before the season started. Bertuzzi has been bothered by a recurrence of a foot injury in every game. Egnatic suffered a leg injury in the Denver game and hasn't seen action in the past two contests.
Evans and Pattie were hurt early in the Iowa game and neither played the rest of the battle. Fambrough was injured in the T.C.U. game and had to take it easy for a few days.
This has been true all over the nation. Several deaths have resulted from gridiron injuries. If the present rate continues to climb, some step probably will be taken to curb this. Let's hope the injuries decline the rest of the season.

Field 6—Kappa Sigma vs. Physical Education
Sauer used Hoyt Baker at fullback. Junior Hess and Forrest Griffith at halfback positions, and Ray Evans at quarter on an offensive squad which scored six touchdowns against a reserve defensive squad in scrimmage.
Bud French, injured slightly in the Nebraska game, reported for practice in sweat clothes. Dick Bertuzzi, who is nursing an injured foot, and Otto Schnellbacher, who has a minor leg injury, were suited up but did not participate in the scrimmage.
The team will leave Friday morning for the Oklahoma territory, where both teams will be primed to erase the memory of their first defeats of the season.
Tulsa was defeated by the University of Detroit 20 to 14 last week and will be trying to make a comeback in order to stay in the race for a Southwestern bowl bid.
Sauer has stated that it was "disappointing" to lose to Nebraska, but
a victory over the Hurricanes would probably bring more prestige than a win over the Big Six team. The non-conference games have no effect on the Big Six standings, however.
After the Hurricanes, the Jayhawkers meet the Oklahoma Aggies and Oklahoma university on successive weeks.
The Tulsa clash will lead off what has been termed the "toughest part of the schedule."
Oklahoma will play the only conference game this week when they go to Ames for a tussle with the Iowa State Cyclones. Nebraska will play the Indiana Hoosiers at Bloomington, and Missouri will entertain Southern Methodist at Columbia. Kansas State has an open date.
Seven Artists Will Play At Student Recital

The program will consist of piano numbers by Marjean Carr and Marshall Butler. In addition, voice solos will be presented by Violet Orloff, Jeanne Aldridge, Phyllis Fretwell, E. M. Brack, and Mary Jane Zollinger.
