UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
OCTOBER 2,1946

(Daily Kansan Sports Editor)
The intramural department has undergone a complete reorganization this fall, and many of the pre-war regulations and committees have been reinstated.
Henry Shenk, head of the physical education department and supervisor of the intramural program, has selected three capable men to assist him. Don Powell is the student manager, Jim Richey is secretary of the intramural board, and "Curly" Hayden is the director of the program at Sunflower.
These men have done a fine job in setting up the program to be carried out this year, and it should run more smoothly than at any time in several years.

The pre-war student board is being organized now. It will consist of one senior, two juniors, four sophomores, and eight freshmen. At the end of each spring semester the more efficient half of each class' representatives will be promoted. In this way, capable men will handle the intramural system every year.
One of the changes this year which will help the entire program is the manner of selecting officials. These officials will be chosen from a class in officiating and from those men who apply for a job. They will be paid for working every game or match, and, in no case, will any man officile in a game in which his organization is competing.
For the past two or three years this has been the biggest source of trouble because each organization furnished one official, and the other team usually thought he was being partial. The new system will get rid of a lot of wrangling over decisions.

With almost 9,000 students enrolled on Mt. Oread this year, the intramural program should be the best in history. The teams will be better than during the war years when a shortage of manpower hindered intramurals.
Let's all get behind the men who have done such a fine job in reorganizing the intramural system and help run off the best year in intramural athletic history.
There should be a lot of interest in all the intramural contests this year, and each game should have a lot of fans on the sidelines. There is plenty of material on the campus to turn out some topnotch outfits this fall.
Intramural Rifle Practice Will Start This Weekend
Practice for those entering the men's intramural rifle tournament will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Friday and from 1 to 6 p.m. Saturday at the range in the Military Science building, Don "Potsy" Powell, a graduate student acting as intramural supervisor announced today
The intramural office should be consulted for specific times for practice, Powell said.
Journalism Adds Two Instructors
Two additions to the department of journalism have been announced.
Charles L. Sanders, managing editor of the Johnson County Democrat at Oathe, will be acting assistant professor of journalism. He will commute to Lawrence once a week to teach an intensive course in advertising campaigns.
John R. Malone, A.A. '37, will be an instructor in advertising. As a junior here he received the Schott memorial prize for outstanding work in journalism and was publisher of the Daily Kansan his senior year. Since his release from the army he has been assistant advertising and sales promotion manager for the Electron Tabe division of Radio Corporation of America.
Jayhawks Prepare For Wichita U. In First Home Game Of Season

Sauer had Ray Evans running in the quarterback slot as the first team
Diz Finally Makes A Decision—It Will Be The Cards
BY DIZZY DEAN
St. Louis—Them guys out there is jest plain tard, so I had to do some pretty tough thinkin' to come up with a winner for you in the world series.
But I done-her.
At first I made up my mind I wuzn't gonna give nobody no predicaments about what was gonna happen. My repetition means too much. And then I got to goin' over it and decided I couldn't let you all down.
And I ain't gonna. Hold on-ter yer garters, folks, and we'll get around to it eventually.
Everybody's on an edge-podge. Lip, the Leo Durocher. He kicked the press guys around when he first got in town and wouldn't make no comment. Well, that's a new one for Leo. Lippy commonly. would hoop and boller bout most anything.
But the guys not nerves-on. He's all excitable. Which ain't like him.
And Eddie Dyer, the manager of the Cards. Us guys is from Texas is supposed to be wearin' arm nerves. But Eddie ain't. He's as nervous as a hound dawg expecting a letter from somebody—and him bein' from the Lone Star state.
It's putty easy to sit back here behind a nice new typewriter and perdict what might have happened for the Cardinals this year.
Take Max Lanier, the pitcher,
runnin off to Mexico. Take that fat
man, Red Barrett, a guy who won a
lot of games last year and who ain't
threw a ball since July 18.
That guy ain't done a lick of work in over two months but be a retriever in the bull pen—wobblin, fat-like out there to pick up foul balls and throw 'em back.
You can take both of them guys. I'll take vernilla. But don't git me wrong. They's both swell guys and friends a-mine.
And Lippy, he's had it rough, too.
Gittin up to the last stitch and losing Pete Reiser.
Well, that brends us up to time for another bottle of beer. And I'll tell you what.
Account of what happened when the Cards beat them Bums 4 to 2 I'll pick the Red Birds.
Women's Rifle Club Adopts Constitution
Thar goes the Dean neck—way out.
A constitution was adopted and members were sworn in at a meeting of the Women's Rifle club in the Military Science building Tuesday.
worked on offensive plays. "Bud" French was moved up to the varsity left halfback position vacated by Evans' shift, and Dick Bertuzzi and Frank Pattee operated from their regular posts at right half and full-back. The rest of the squad had a scrummage session.
A practice session for the temporary first rifle team was held. Firing schedules will be posted on the bulletin board, Sgt. Arthur W. Millard. coach, said.
Tryouts will be held Oct. 30 so that a first and second team can be chosen for the telegraphic meet with the University of Honolulu, Hawaii, Oct. 21. The next meeting will be Nov. 1.
Chet Laniewski, a fast, hard-driving halfback, probably will see action for the first time as a Jayhawker in the Wichita game. The 180-pound Ambridge, Pa., scraper was a regular on the Second Air Force eleven last year. He had a cartilage removed from his knee three weeks ago, and he donned a full suit for the first time this week.
Ralph Wygle, 230-pound tackle reported last week after his discharge from the service, may be ready to go in the Shocker battle. A hard-hitting forward, he should add strength to the line.
Sauer, expecting a tough battle from the Shockers, will send his charges through stiff drills today and tomorrow. The offensive play probably will get a lot of attention in an effort to improve the Kansas scoring power, and the line, which has shown more promise than was expected, also will get its share of drilling by Coaches Bob Ingalls and Mike Getto.

Touch football will be the only sport played at Sunflower; participants in other intramural activities will compete on the campus.
