Jayhawkers Swamp Washburn; 'B' Team Whips Ft. Riley, 12-0
The fighting Jayhawkers walloped their 54-year-old enemies the Washburn Ichabods, 34-0. Friday night at Haskell stadium before a crowd of 7,400.
Using the ground route in contrast to the aerial attack used last week against Iowa State, the Jayhawkers gained 359 yards rushing to Washburn's 95 yards.
Friday's victory for the Kansas boys brought a double defeat to Washburn—the Ichabods' second defeat this season, as well as the 27th defeat at the hands of the Jayhawkers.
Harlan Harmon, 200-pound Washburn back, offered the only scoring threat, when he tossed a neat pass over the Kansas goal to Sidney Gilchrist, who let the ball slip from his hands.
Ten minutes after the kick off,
following a series of long plays.
Leroy Robison ran 32 yards and
crossed the line for the first touchdown. Robison's placekick hiked the score to 7-0 at the end of the first quarter.
Touchdowns Called Back
Touchdowns made by Dave Schmidt, left end, and wingback Dick Bertuzzi failed to count, brought back on 15-vard penalties.
Following the first no - count touchdown, a pass at the 14-yard line from Robison to Bertuzzi marked up 10 more yards for the Jayhawkers. Robison plowed over the middle to make the second score and converted for the second time.
From the 22-yard line, Bertuzzi carried the ball 12 yards and Gear covered the rest of the territory for the third touchdown. Robison's place kick was good, the half ending 21-0. Billy Sears Performs
Two lighted batons twirled by the skilled hands of Cpl. Billy Sears proved a gorgeous spectacle in the darkened stadium at the half. The band, directed by Russell L. Wiley, and prancing majorettes performed under the lights.
Harmon, accurate Washburn passer, attempted several aerials, but failed to connect.
Touchdowns in the third quarter by Collin and Collins brought the score to the 34-0 finale. Rex Marx-miller, freshman back carried the pigskin 80 yards, and Collins hugged it the rest of the way for the last touchdown. Collin's conversion was good.
With the score decidedly one-sided, hundreds of fans left the stands at the end of the third quarter. Those who expected to witness a replica of the Iowa State game were sadly disappointed. Used 31 Substitutes
Leroy Robison, a face back for the Jayhawkers, received high point honors, with three touchdowns and three kick points to his credit.
Elmer Betts, 209-pound starting center, for the Ichabods, was injured early in the first quarter.
In addition to the starting line-up, 31 Jayhawkers were used as substitutes in the game. The entire last quarter was played with second and third-stringers.

Memorial stadium was the scene of a junior Army-Navy classic Saturday afternoon, when the navy-powered Jayhawker "B" squad rolled over the "All-Stars" of Ft. Riley, 12-0.
Kansas' first tally came in the second period, when Charles Conroy took a Riley punt on his own 45 and advanced it to the enemy 12. Rex Marxmiller took the ball on an 11-yard spin, then plunged over from the 1 on the next play. An end run for the extra point was halted by the soldiers.
A Ft. Riley fumble recovered by Kansas on the 20-yard stripe set-up the next score. Stan "Streak" Jeris gained 10 yards off tackle and picked up ten more to advance into pay dirt. A pass for the extra point' fell incomplete.
The game, which was witnessed by a mere handfull of spectators, was highlighted by a small, but noisy, cheering section, composed mostly of the first-string Jayhawkers, on hand to give their squad mates moral support.
Two cheerleaders led the rooters in frequent chants of "Yea team, fight!" to the tune of "Volga Boatman" and clapping to the music of Duke Ellington via portable radio. The latest football scores were relayed from the stands to the team on the bench by loud shouts.
On the injury list from the rough and tumble fracas with the army are the navy's Ken "Red" Arnold with a cut eye and Neal Cramer with a leg injury.
In the line up were:

Wednesday - Thursday
The intramural touch football season got off to a fighting start on the lower intramural fields Thursday with the Phi Delt's taking a hard fought 18-0 victory from the Beta's who were last year's champions.
Phi Delt Whips Beta; DU, Phi Gam, SAE Sig Chi Also Victorious
Delta Upsilon took Carruth Hall, 18-12, and SAE rolled over Battenfeld Hall, 1-0, to round out the scores in Division I.
In Division II, the husky Phi Gam team swamped the Kappa Alpha Psi's, 30-0. Sigma Chi beat Delta Tau DeltA, 30-0, and Kappa Sig defeated T.K.E. 1-0.
The Beta vs. Phi Delt game was the outstanding contest yesterday with both teams among the strongest on the Hill. The game was tooth and nail from the start, with the Beta's refusing to budge an inch in the first half keeping the score at 0-0. The second period was a different story, and the Phi Delt's came out fighting. Led by their hard-running quarterback, Jack McShane, they made the first touchdown of the game.
The Phi Delt's took to the air early in the fourth quarter with right end, Jim Gregath, catching a long pass from McShane to bring the score to 12-0 over the tiring Beta's. The high point of the game came in the last of the fourth quarter when McShane, the Phi Delt sparkplug, broke away and ran 70 yards down the field to make the final touchdown of the game.
SELECTED SHORT SUBJECTS
AAAAAAAAAA
An interesting feature was brought out in the SAE vs. Battenfeld and the TKE vs. Kappa Sig games. Both games ended 0-0, and according to new rules, an "extra inning" was played to determine the winner. The sun had set by this time, and both games ended with the players stumbling around in the dark. SAE won over Battenfeld and Kappa Sig beat TKE by a score of 1-0.
Chandler Baldwin Dead
Capt. Chandler Baldwin, whose father, Col. Karl Baldwin, was professor of military science and tactics at K.U. for several years, died as a Japanese prisoner of war March 4.
Captain Baldwin, born on the Jap-
anese island of Honshu, was taken
there as a prisoner in December,
1944. No information other than
the date of his death has been received.
Mrs. Fern Lyon, '41, has been appointed library assistant in charge of the biology desk in Watson library.
There's a blackboard in Frank Strong hall that hasn't been erased in 18 years!
In 1927 Grant Mull, elderly mail carrier, while waiting for the mail to come in, picked up a piece of chalk and began "doodling" on the University post office blackboard.
He didn't "doodle" long. But when time came to pick up his mail-bag and leave, a chalk drawing of a tree remained as proof of his artistic ability.
That same tree still stands today. R. C. Abraham, superintendent of the University post office, doesn't remember how the tree escaped being erased at first. But, when Mr. Mull retired several months later, it was still there. Mr. Abraham, has protected the tree from that day.
The tree has been in danger of being erased many times. Mr. Abraham counteracted this hazard with sharp eyes and quick vocal chords, but it eventually proved too risky. The eraser, chalk and Mr. Abraham's own spare time drawing were sacrificed for 'art's sake.
When Mr. Mull visited the University several years ago, he visited Mr. Abraham in the University post office. He grinned delightedly when he viewed his ancient masterpiece.
Mr. Abraham, aware of the tree's fragility and the contrastiness of human nature, has taken steps to preserve the tree for posterity. It was impossible to fence it in, so he took a few time-exposure snaps of it with his camera.
The 18 year-old drawing is on the right blackboard, near the windows, at the rear of the post office. It's not as clear as it once was—the trunk has been side-swiped by a mailbag—but it is still there.
Dalquest Does Research On Washington Mammals
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Dalquest of Seattle, Wash., arrived on the campus last week for a month's visit, while Mr. Dalquest gathers research material from the Washington state specimens in Dyche museum. The information will complete several year's work on a book of the mammals of Washington.
Mr. Dalquest worked as a graduate student with Dr. E. Raymond Hall, director of the natural history museum, when he was with the University of California faculty.
