Phi Gams, Triangle, Phi Delts, Hand Shutouts To Opponents Friday
Three shutouts featured play in Friday's intramural touch football games. Two games were won by a single counter, while another was taken by a three-score margin.
An aerial-minded Phi Gamma Delta eleven, spark-plug southpaw pitching of Ken Johnson, battled its over the Phi Kappas in division?
An aerial-minded Phi Gamma southpaw pitching of Ken Johnson, over the Phi Kappas in division four.
Early in the second period the Phi Delta took over on the Phi Kappa 25. Two running plays brought the ball to the 15, and a toss by Johnson was completed to the two-foot line.
On the next play Johnson riffed a pass to Marshall Hulitt on the line of scrimmage, and he stepped across for the only score.
Another hard-fought battle ragged in division two as Triangle ground out a fourth-quarter touchdown to hand Kappa Sigma a 6 to 0 defeat, the second of the year for the Kappa Sigs.
A Thomas-to-Hyde pass from midfield to the Kappa Sig twelve in the early part of the final period set up the score, and another Thomas heave, fo Sankey, netted the winning tally.
Kappa Sig threatened in the final minute as a pass from Bill Pringle to Templier combined with a penalty advanced the ball to the Triangle 23. The final whistle ended the contest before another try to ring up the tying counter.
Phi Delta Theta's Walt Quiring was just about the whole show as Delta Chi suffered its second straight loss in division one play. Three Quiring passes brought results as the Phi Delts rang up an 18 to 0 margin.
The opening touchdown came in the second stanza as the Phi Delt star connected with a long 25-yard pass to Jack Dillard in the end zone. A third period score came on an aerial to C. D. Williams, who gathered in the ball on the 19 and scampered to the goal.
In the closing minutes of the game, Quiring bulleted one from the eight to Hassig, who lateraled to Dunn for the final tally.
The "B" team game scheduled between Phi Psi and Phi Delt seconds was postponed.
Phi Kappa Psi added one to the win column the easy way, as Phi Kappa Alpha failed to field a team and was charged with a forfeit.
South America, Take Him Away
Long Beach, Calif. (UP)—Homing Homer is a good pigeon at heart, and he knows his way around.
The trouble is, he either has forgotten his real home or he isn't one to forget a benefactor.
Homer was injured when he flew into a wire and was taken to Dr. Benton F. Pike's animal hospital. The doctor sewed a gaping wound beneath the bird's wing and confined him for recuperation.
Completely well, Homer has been given his discharge by the hospital, but he won't leave, Dr. Pike has taken him outdoors and tossed him to freedom. Homer simply circles and returns.
A leghand showed Homer belonged to some loft, so Pike took him across town and freed him again, thinking he would go to his rightful owner.
You guessed it. Homer beat the doctor home.
Hands More Important Than Feet In Hindu Dances
So says Dorothy Bloom of this city, and she should know, since she is currently teaching a class in the Hindu Natya dance.
Columbus, O. (UP)—If you want to understand Hindu dancing—watch the hands rather than the feet.
"This is fundamentally the difference, physically, between the art of the East and that of the West." Miss Bloom says. "Although there is a certain technique to learn for the lower limbs, it is only as a rhythmic accompaniment to the amazing technique of the upper body."
K.U.'s Moore Finishes First, But Team Loses
The Iowa State cross country team, although K.U. took first place, defeated the Jayhawker harriers 26-29 in the opening race of the fall season Saturday at Ames, Iowa.
Harold Moore, undefeated Jayhawker ace last fall in cross country, crossed the finish line of the 2 mile, 372 yard course in 11:37.8 to take first place.
Other finishers: Mac Baty, I.S. second; Andy Lunsford, K.U., third; Larry Inman, I.S., fourth; Bob Magill, I.S., fifth; Tom Maney, I.S.; sixth; Leon Akerman, K.U., seventh; Ed Lunsford, K.U., eighth; Ed Stephens, I.S., ninth; Darrell Brown; K.U., tenth.
City May Get Ships For Emergency Dorms
Olympia, Wash. (UP)—Washington's capital city may shortly solve its acute housing shortage in an unusual wav if the U.S. maritime commission will co-operate.
Anchored in Puget sound at Olympia are 97 liberty, victory, and hospital ships as well as other assorted vessels totaling in value hundreds of million of dollars.
Olympia is investigating the possibility of acquiring one or more of the vessels for conversion to floating dormitories.
F. W. Mathias, chamber of commerce president, said only one of the ships would be an adequate answer to the housing shortage for scores of GI students attending nearby St. Martin's college and many more that have returned to the city high school.
Magazine Asserts Missiles Are Bombs, Not Meteors
Washington. (UP)—Aviation News Monday will editorially contradict official Swedish statements that mysterious missiles seen over Scandanavia in recent months were meteors and not experimental Russian buzz bombs.
Robert H. Wood, editor of Aviation News, returned recently from Sweden and Denmark where he investigated the "buzz bombs," allegedly a new type with range of 2,000 to 3,000 miles.
Gimme My Change Quick
Milwaukee. (UP)—Eugene Eisen reports the quickest case of inflation on record.
Eisen went into a bakery for a loaf of bread. The salesgirl asked for 13 cents. As he fumbled for the change, Eisen discovered that he would have to give the girl a $10 bill. She went for his money, and when she returned said, "Bread has gone up and now it is 17 cents."
It Was A Clean Game, Ma—Only Three Fractures
At least that's what Coach George Sauer found out when he received a letter from an inmate in one of the eastern reform schools.
It's a rough year for football.
in answer to the inmate's request, Sauer sent a complete football uniform and the brochure "Football at Kansas" to the school. For some reason the uniform didn't arrive. A prompt reply resulted.
"I received the brochure "Football at Kansas" which you so very thoughtfully sent to me," the inmate wrote. "It is very interesting to me and will give me an up-to-the-minute knowledge of the Kansas Jayhawkers."
Sauer and Ray Evans autographed the book for which he was "especially happy."
"Our team has played two games," the writer continued, "winning 26 to 0 and 13 to 0. As we are last year's champs of this institution, we are fighting to retain the crown, for this may be the last season here for many of us, thank goodness.
"Our first opponents were a bit lighter than our teams. They were stubborn, but we won the game.
Dickson, Ferriss Final Pitchers
"Our second game was a real battle against a heavier team. I am embarrassed to say it, but a sure-touchdown pass was fumbled by yours truly. Our opponent was the victim of bad luck. Three of their players received broken bones, and nine of them have bad limps.
Seven of the inmates have received uniforms from colleges throughout the country. Sauer's correspondent said the improvement of the players wearing uniforms was "swell."
"We really blocked hard but despite their injuries, the game was very clean."
St. Louis. (U. P.)—For the 10th time in major league history, a world series went into a seventh game with the Boston Red Sox 8 to 5 favorites to win from the St. Louis Cardinals in the deciding game tomorrow.
Those odds were against tradition, for six times in the previous limits series the national league came out on top. But this time they were betting that the Cardinals, who have been bouncing off the floor all season, couldn't make it.
To the refugee from a bull pen, 29-year-old Murry Dickson, goes the job of hurling the seventh—and very final—game of the world series for the St. Louis Cardinals.
Matching slants with him for the game's world championship will be Dave "Boo" Ferriss, a powerful workhorse who was the major league's leading percentage winner the past season with a record of 25 victories and six losses.
Ferriss, the sophomore star who has been the clutch hurler for the Red Sox all season long, beat Dickson 4 to 10 in the third game played at Boston Wednesday. He allowed only six hits and a base on balls.
Dickson hasn't had the success which Ferriss has enjoyed, but he was a leading figure in the Cardinal drive to the National league pennant after a playoff with the Brooklyn Dodgers.
He allowed six hits and three runs in seven innings before he was lifted for a pinch hitter and during that time made only one mistake—he threw a fat one to Rudy York. The Cherokee Indian first baseman met it with a mighty swing and drove the ball out of the park. That turned out to be the ball game.
Warm and clear weather were forecast for the deciding game.
The Red Birds kept alive yesterday when Harry (the cat) Brecheen, coming up with another pitching masterpiece, set down the sox with seven hits to win, 4 to 1. Except for York's triple he would have scored another shutout.
His teammates gave him all the runs he needed in the third inning.
