Better, best, best. Wichita "Wheat-shockers" played their "best game of the season" last Friday, taking Fort Riley, 31 to 13, Mel Binford, the "Shockers" coach, believes.
But in comparing Wichita and K.U. with Washburn, the Jayhawkers walked all over Washburn with a 34 to 0 score, whereas Wichita lost to the Ichabods, 0 to 14.
The Baker system in rating college football teams predicts K.U. winning by 13 points.
SHELL THE 'SHOCKERS
Meet your team."Little" George Gear's name was familiar to Jayhawkers even before this 5-foot.
10-inch freshman ever entered the University. And since he's been here, fans are constantly hearing "George Gear intercepted a long aerial," or "Gear covered the rest of the territory for a touchdown." Hutchinson Senior High school claims "little Georgie" as its ace man who lettered three times in football, three times in basketball, and three times in tennis. This quarterback in the KU. T-attack captained his team as well as the 1944 all state interscholastic football team when he was a senior.
Gear
was it a senior.
He'll never live down being called "little Georgie" by sports announcers, he says, even though his nickname has been "Lug" ever since the second grade in school.
second grade. George handles model airplanes as skillfully as he handles the pigskin on the gridiron, and there is nothing he'd rather do than learn how to knit—unless it would be to eat fried chicken with French fries.
Gear is majoring in petroleum engineering and is a pledge to Phi Kappa Psi.

K. U.'s week-end football outlook took on a rosier hue today, when Coach Henry Shenk learned that two of his three "vacationing" V-12 first-string linemen would join the Jayhawker squad Friday to play the Wheatshockers of Wichita university in that city.
Norman Pumphrey, right wingman, will fly from Arlington, Va., and "Pat" Burke, right guard, will come from Columbus, Ohio, to start against Wichita university. Both men will be foregoing half of their navy between-semester leave to play in the Shocker tilt. The only first-stringer who is unable to be in Wichita is Bob Moore, right tackle, on leave in California.
Linemen Back For W.U. Game
Brushing the weatshocks from the ears of the Wichita lads appears a cinch for the Jayhawkers. Linwood Sextion, fleet halfback of the Shockers, is the man the Jayhawkers will have to watch. He has marked up 54 points this season on wide sweeps.
