PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS 4 OCTOBER 30,1945 Oklahoma and Missouri are still tied for the Big Six lead with three wins and no losses. They are likely to remain neck and neck until they meet at Columbia, Mo., Nov. 17. Iowa State is in third place. Kansas holds down the fourth spot with no wins, one loss, and one tie. K-State is in fifth spot with two losses, no wins, and Nebraska is sweeping the cellar with three conference losses. HUSK THE HUSKERS Jack Venable, Oklahoma ace, leads the Big Six scoring (conference games only) with a total of 30 points—five touchdowns, Oklahoma's Howard Hawkins and Missouri's Loyd Brinkman are tied for second with 18 points. Kansas' Leroy Robison and two Iowa State men hold down a third place tie with two touchdowns each. Robison led the scoring last week with 37 points for all games, but will be unable to continue because of a broken collarbone received Saturday at Wichita. He is out for the season. HUSK THE HUSKERS The experts were on the beam in last weekend's choices, picking three winning teams. Oklahoma 41, Kansas State 13. Kansas 13. Wichita 0. Ernie Quigley leads the pick-off graph for the third consecutive week with 18 correct choices out of 21. Hot on his trail are Henry Shenk and the Kansan sports editor with 17 good picks, and the football team close behind with 16 correct. HUSK THE HUSKERS The Huskers of Nebraska will be hosts to a badly battered Kansas team this weekend. Last year, the Jayhawkers broke a 48-year jinx, husking the Huskers by a net 20-0 margin on home soil. Mrs. William Joseph Arthur became a "substitute student" last week when her husband went to the hospital, and she attended his advanced economics class, under Prof. E. B. Dade. GreaterLove HathNoWife Nebraska has lost six games in a row this year, and has won none. Last weekend, the Missouri Tigers trounced them, 19-0. With an urge to take revenge on someone, the Huskers undoubtedly will work on Kansas this weekend. "I had intended to go to his class three days, but he was in the hospital only one day, so I attended only on Wednesday," she said. "I had to stay home the rest of the week and take care of him. "My husband, who has been in the navy for the past four years, and who for 20 months was a pilot on fighter planes and dive bombers over Pacific islands and Japan, is taking only one course this semester," she said. "We arrived here from Corpus Christi too late for him to enroll with the other sudents. "I took notes as nearly word for word as I could so Bill would not miss much of the day's work," Mrs. Arthur said. Mrs. Arthur, the fromer Shirley Bayles, received the bachelor of arts degree in home economics from the University in 1944. Mr. Arthur left the University in 1940, and is now continuing his courses toward the School of Business. Washburn V-12's Reinforce Team Three new trainees from Washburn were added to the Jayhawker eleven this week and may aid the red and blue in erasing the 48-year jinx with the Cornhuskers of Nebraska. Leroy Harmon, 210-pound fullback from Houston is the accurate Washburn passer who offered the only scoring threat when the Jay-hawkers swamped Washburn, 34-0. Harmon was enrolled at Tulane university before entering the navy, but did not play football there. After serving 33 months overseas, he returned to V-12 training at Washburn. Star at Wichita Jack Rader, another V-12 trainee, quarterbacked at Washburn and will play halfback for the Jayhawkers. Rader is a quick starter in football and will help out considerably on the basketball court. Bob Ulrich, 160-pound end, is the brother of the great Kansas end, "Hub" Ulrich, who was a Big Six choice in 1941. During high school days, he was a star at Wichita High School East. In their first day of practice yesterday, Harmon looked good as a kicker and a passer and definitely will help the ball club. Rader and Ulrich also displayed quick performances on the gridiron. The three Washburn men were the only ones of 164 trainees who reported for practice the first day. Other trainees are expected from Wasburn, Marysville Teachers college, and Case later this week. Wilson, Moore to Return Ben Wilson, Jayhawker tackle and center, and Bob Moore, right tackle, are expected to return from navy leave this week, and they will participate in the Nebraska game Saturday. Dick Bertuzzi, who is in the hospital with a bruised ankle, is expected to be released and will be in the lineup against the Huskers. Wayne Hird, still suffering from a twisted knee, is expected to play in Saturday's game. Don't Bewail Your Student Lot ---Oregon Trail Was Bumpy, Too From camp fires gleaming as protection against Indians, to midnight oil burning as defense against professors—this has been the evolution of Mt. Oread. BY CATHERINE OSGOOD (Daily Kansan Staff Writer) Back in caravan and scalping party days, pioneers, bound for the Rocky mountains and gold in California, followed the Oregon trail which passed over ground that is now part of the University campus. The "forty-miners" plodded up the southern slope of Mt. Oread across the site occupied by Marvin hall and out across the present West hills area. Here, with a commanding view of both the Kaw and the Wakarusa valleys, they fought off Indians and floods. From the West hills area the trail winds over Highway 40 to Topeka where its deep ruts can still be seen. Even before the days of V-12's and returning veterans, the Hill was known as a "happy hunting ground." University High Presents Awards For Basketball The University High school held a basketball award assembly in Fraser hall today to give awards for last year's season. First team letters were given to Bill Porter, Steve Ellsworth, Gene Tait, Richard Kirchoff, Roger Olmstead, and Charles Krone. Krone is the only one back this year. The other five graduated last year and are now in the armed forces. Numerals for honorable mention went to Edward Dombeck, Richard Cochran, Richard Barlow, David Lawson, Richard O'Niel, and Lowell Ashbv. The only track letter given was to Roger Olmstead. 33 Take Exams Thirty-three students took the language proficiency exams Saturday, Prof. W. H. Shoemaker reported today.

Oread for Oread institute in a far-off Massachusetts town, which, like the University, occupied a site overlooking the valley.
