Bill "Red" Hogan's loss to the Jayhawker eleven may force Coach George Sauer to shift one of his other backs to the quarterback position this week. Hogan was counted on to make the Kansas "T" formation work smoothly as the season advanced.
Last week's games showed that college football this year will be more unpredictable than at any other time. More upsets marked the final outcome than were expected, and most of the big powers, according to pre-season dope, had a mighty rough weekend.
McNutt handled the team the second half of the Denver game and turned in a creditable job as the Kansans scored three times to sew up the game. He was first string quarterback for Northwestern university in 1942 before entering the service.
Now that "Red" is out of the lineup for several weeks, the Jay-hawkers have only two other signal callers with much experience. Lynne McNutt and Tip Mester probably will be called on to take Hogan's place unless someone else is shifted into the varsity slot.
Mester, playing his first year of college football, improved greatly during summer practice sessions, and he probably will see quite a bit of action in future games.
Oklahoma put up a game fight before losing to a great Army team. Missouri came back after a humiliating defeat at the hands of Texas university to tie Ohio State, one of the top elevens in the Big Nine conference. Arkansas pulled the biggest upset of the season by holding the Oklahoma Aggies to a 21-all tie.
Texas swamped Colorado, rated along with Denver as the top teams in the Big Seven conference, under a 76-point avalanche.
Sports writers and coaches all over the nation are beginning to wonder just what Dana X. Bible has this year, his last as a college football coach.
The next night, when Sauer put him in the game, Munroe forgot to take his helmet on the field, and the officials had to send him back for it.
It seems that Les was looking for a date in Denver Thursday night, and, unsuccessful, he wandered into a beer garden. Before he got out, Les had tried to buy the business.
Already some of these writers are starting to push Texas for the Rose Bowl bid Jan. 1. It's far too early in the season to talk about bowls games. I believe there will be very few undefeated teams in the nation this year, and Texas might get bumped off the victory road in any of its remaining games.
Los Munroe, freshman tackle on the Jayhawker squad, has a new nickname as a result of the trip to Denver.
The Archery club will meet at 4 p.m. Monday in 206 Robinson gymnasium. Anyone interested who cannot attend the meeting may sign at 106 Robinson.
So the boys on the team nicknamed him "Moe" although they think the high altitude may have had something to do with his behavior.
Archery Club To Meet At Robinson Monday
Rip Collins, freshman in premedicine, will act as temporary chairman for the club. He was an archery instructor for nine months at Pearl Harbor.
Engineers Meet Thursday
The engineering council of the School of Engineering and Architecture will meet at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in 110 Marvin hall. This will be the council's first meeting of the fall term.
'Brooklyn Cardinals'
Sure To Win,
Dizzy Dean Writes
St. Louis.—Brother, if you was smart, you pasted what I said in your hat.
By DIZZY DEAN
A couple of weeks ago when this National league race was giving us all the bee-bee-gee-gees, I told you to watch out for them Brooklyn Cardinals for the lead, and that's what they done, makin a lot of trouble for everybody.
Lippy Durocher is a pretty fair hand at kicking dirt on a umpire, but you gotta hand it to the lug. He can't be sold short. He'll run in two, three maybe eight pitchers on you in a single game. And that's what done it for him. Insurance in numbers. If Kirby Hige got hisself in a jam, Joe Hatten or somebody else was all oiled up to ready in. And Leo had some more help too in Ed Stanky, Cookie Lavagette, Augie Galan and Dixie Walker. Them boys was hittin in the clutch.
Eddie Dyer of the Cards, he had to leave it to his best hands. The Bums come through when the chips was piled on homeplate. I reckon you might say the Cards was just too nonchallat when they orta been challat. Goin along there picking up two, three hits a game and hardly no runs don't win no flags.
Well, that brings us up to this here playoff, and that's a hound dog of another color.
Dont sell neither one of them teams the short end of no stick.
That sounds like I'm trying to ride a middle rod, but that aint so. I got as much guts as the next one, butaint nobody gonna bull me intomakin no scare-brain perdictionsIll be sorry for later.
I'm gonna sleep over it, and maybe later I'll come up with your winner, after we see what happens in the first game here.
But I aint gonna size up the re-spectable teams till I do me some good hard thinkin.
50 In Extension Purchasing Course
Approximately 50 students have enrolled in a "Course in Purchasing" which will be sponsored by the Kansas City Purchasing Agents association and the School of Business and Extension division of the University.
Beginning Oct. 10 classes will be held every Thursday night at the Hotel Continental in Kansas City, Mo., for 17 weeks.
Arthur J. Pearson, purchasing agent for the American Meat Institute in Chicago and a member of the Northwestern University faculty, wil conduct several classes. L. E. Woolley, manager of the Student Cooperative bookstore, also will teach. Other instructors will be furnished by the School of Business.
Evans Switches To Quarterback
Coach George Sauer began revamping the Jayhawks backfield Monday by teaching Ray Evans, who has been driving from a halfback position, the duties of ballhandling from the quarterback slot.
Bill "Red" Hogan, regular quarter-back who broke his leg in the Denver game Friday, hobbled around on crutches advising Evans.
Sauer said that with Hogan out, the backfield would have to be reorganized. This week's practice will be devoted to finding the right combination.
New strength should be added to the line with the addition of Sam Hunter, freshman tackle and end on the 1944 varsity, who joined the squad for the first time. He is just out of the service.
45 Student Pilots Train For Licenses
About 45 University students are on their way toward earning their private pilot's license under the training program of the Jayhawk Flying club, according to W. M. Simpson, professor of aeronautical engineering and sponsor of the club.
The ground training class, which meets three times a week, is almost full. Professor Simpson said. Some members of the club who have had previous ground training are enrolled only in the flying course, so a few vacancies exist in the ground training class.
Flying is done at the Lawrence airport, from three to five times a week. All light aircraft are used for the basic lessons. Most of the flying is done in Aeronica Champs and Piper Cubs.
A charge of $300 is made for the flying lessons, and may be paid under the G.L. Bill of Rights. Two hours of college credit are given for the ground course and one for the flying course.
Triangle and Delta Chi fraternities were voted into the inter-fraternity council in its first meeting Monday night. Bill Ellis was elected to the executive council, replacing Glenn Warner.
