Referee May Have Been Mistaken In Penalizing Jayhawks Saturday
The clipping penalty assessed against the Kansas Jayhawks in the last 15 seconds of play which cost them the game with Kansas State last Saturday could have been called either way, Kansas coach Henry Shenk announced today after viewing the motion pictures taken of the game.
The pictures of the play reveal that the Kansas State player was running shortly ahead of Gene Long, stellar K.U. guard, and began to falter. From then on the movements of both players are in doubt. Shenk believes it looked as if the Aggie man just had to slow down, and Long couldn't stop in time to avoid running him down. It was no real clip in any sense of the word, Shenk emphasized, and the decision was entirely in the referee's hands. Smith's Injury Revealed
The officials were justified in calling the play the way they did, Shenk stated, but an equally well-founded argument could be built up for the other schools of thought. The play will undoubtedly go down in KU. annals as the toughest break the Jayhawks ever received.
The photographs also revealed how Jean Smith, K-State halfback who received a broken leg in the game, suffered his injury. In attempting to tackle a K.U. runner bound for the goal line Smith became twisted into an awkward position, and fell on his leg in such a way that it either had to bend or break. Smith then was able to get to the sidelines before he felt the full effect of the injury.

COUNCIL POSTPONES - if such lists could be compiled before tomorrow morning, Joan Burch, chairman of the election committee, which is composed of two representatives from each of the four political parties, reported she believed the lists could be made up, but feared they could not be proofread and accepted by all parties before tomorrow morning.
Reasons Moves for Postponement
In view of the conflicting provisions, Kenneth Reasons moved that the election be postponed until Tuesday and certified lists be obtained from the deans' offices. The motion was passed by a small margin.

The Kansas Jayhawks will be facing their toughest foe of the season when they tie into the Oklahoma Sooners, defending Big Six champion, next Saturday here in Memorial stadium. The Sooners are currently on top of the Big Six pile with two wins and one tie, and only K.U. and Nebraska stand between them and another crown.
Kansas Will Face Toughest Opposition Of Season Saturday
Coach Henry Shenk commented toady that the Jayhawks will be stressing both an offense and a means of stopping Oklahoma's vaunted Derald Lebow tonight and throughout remaining practice sessions. A pass defense is being built up that may force the Sooners to stay on the ground during the afternoon.
The battle last Saturday left the team virtually free from injury, and Shenk hopes the men get through the remaining three practices in as good a shape as at present. The only changes in sight for Saturday may be at the end and tackle posts, where some weaknesses were noticed in the Kansas State game. The Kansas mentor fears the Sooner eleven will be at top strength for the coming game, and will be out to make up for their tie with Missouri last Saturday.
Sooners Have One Injured
Team Is in Good Shape
Sooner injuries number only guard Thurman Tigart, who repelled a muscle in his leg which may keep him out of next Saturday's game. Back in the fold after injuries hindered them from giving a full performance in the M.U. contest will be backback Basil Sharp, Charley Heard, Millard Cummings, and Derald Lebow, key Sooner half-back. Homer Sparkman, Bob Mayfield, Max Culver, and W. G. Wooten played the entire Missouri game for the Sooners. Mayfield is drawing comment all over Big Six circles as the smartest center in the circuit in many a year.
The Sooners run their plays from a single wing, sometimes with an unbalanced line, but may go into other formations at times, Ray Kanehl, K.U. track coach who scouted the M.U.-O.U. game last Saturday pointed out.

time on the Chicago Tribune. He returned to Eureka to become a printer however, and has never gone ahead with his talent for cartooning.
Mr. Maloy has mailed some reproductions of one of his favorite cartoons to the Daily Kansan for distribution among the students. They are in the newsroom of the Journalism building and any of the University students may obtain one there until the supply was exhausted. This particular cartoon is quite appropriate now, because it shows the Jayhawk kicking the Missouri tiger as Maloy himself pictured it, back when the first Jayhawk donned his shoes.
