FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1944 Phi Gams, SAE's Keep Intramural Records Intact Scores on three intramural touch football contests had been turned in at noon today, Ray Kanehl, assistant director, announced. Two shut battles and a grueling 20-18 thriller, were features of the games. In a Wednesday night affair, the SAE's managed to win their first contest of the season by edging out the Delta, 20 to 18, on the strength of Sig Alph Bob Daleen's aggressiveness in scoring a safety. Last night the SAE's again hit the victory column as they sneaked past the Residence halls, 6 to 0. Daleen, Sig Alph center, again provided the margin of victory as he scored the lone touchdown of the fray. Phi Gam continued its winning habits in eeking out a 12-0 triumph over the Phi Psi's to stretch its victory to three straight contests without being scored upon. These were the last of the games scheduled for this semester. Other scores will be reported when they have been turned in, but the rest of the games will be played next term. Thirty-one new members were initiated into the KuKu club, mens pep organization last Wednesday night.

Frnka pointed out to his squad that two of the three fumbles committed in the game last Saturday might have proved costly in a closer contest. . . (continued from page one) peared this week in Washington to testify before a committee on higher education of the House of Representatives. His testimony was on the problem of federal aid to institutions of higher learning. He was called suddenly to the national capital to appear before the committee and left Monday evening. He returned to the campus Thursday night. Maliot's absence was first noticed when he failed to appear at an auction of faculty services for the War Student Service Fund this week. Sportorials By Earl Barney Losses due to V-12's either being graduated or transferred on November 1 are going to leave some wide gaps in the Kansas line and backfield. Gone will be such starters as Charles Daigneault, Dutch Schimenz and Warren Rieagle, ends; four backs, O. J. Endecott, Bob Pendleton, Ted Short, and Don Barrington, the last two being fullbacks. Coaches Shenk and Schaake, it would seem, will be extremely short of both ends and full-backs. May we suggest (courtesy Coach Shenk) the following tentative positions: right end, George Dick; left end, Elmer Schaake; quaretback, Dean Nesmith; and at fullback, Henry Shenk. Anything to win, you know... At the present time, Kansas players and coaches alike are living for but one thing—the Nebraska game a week from tomorrow. What goes on five hours,—or even five minutes,—after the grudge battle is of little consequence. The interstate squad has been thoroughly instilled with the thought that a Jayhawk football team hasn't licked a Cornhusker eleven since 1916, a victory drouth of some 28 long years. This fall presents one of the best opportunities for a Kansas victory in some years. The Jayhawks have looked much better in their earlier games than the Cornhuskers, whose all-civilian team has suffered badly at the hands of Western Conference elevens. In preparation for the Hurricanes game with the Texas Tech Red Raiders this Saturday, Tulsa football coach Henry Finka has tried to smooth off the rough edges that he found so evident in the Tulsa-Kansas game. Finka was disappointed over the fact that his charges could score only four touchdowns after running up 462 yards on total offense to the Jayhawk's 47, and making 24 first downs The attitude toward universal military training for a period of one year under control of the military forces is divided among faculty members, according to E. O. Stene, secretary of the local chapter of the American Association of University Professors. Mr. Stene based the conclusion on a tabulation of the voting held last week after a vigorous discussion on the subject in Green hall. There are those faculty members who do not favor the direct control of the program by the military, but favor a National Youth Service with an educational system and some mild form of military training. Part of the group felt that if the working of the materials of war itself were taught the materials would be outdated before an emergency would arise that would necessitate their use. They favored a program of the study of the science and mathematics that would work in all cases and in almost all times. However there would naturally be a few details to be worked out in this training, but several felt that this was the answer to the problem of some sort of training for the youth of this country. Opinion Is Divided On Training Question There was also considerable discussion on the point that the program would interfere with the education of the students when they had to lay aside their books in order to take their year of military training. The sentiment of the group as a whole was in favor of waiting until after the war to decide the answer to the problem so that the needs of the nation could best be met. This survey was one of the many conducted throughout the United States in order to determine the opinion of university professors toward one year of military training. Stop That Cyclone The Kansas State Wildcats are making their longest trip of the 1944 season this weekend in playing Michigan State at East Lansing, Mich. Coach Ward Hayley will take 27 men with him on the trip in hopes of the 'Cats first victory of the 1944 season. Good luck to him! Coach Fritz Knobb issued first call for varsity basketball yesterday for all those not out for varsity football. The only letterman expected to be on hand will be Joe Ridgeway a forward who won his "K" in 1943. Last season Ridgeway played with an army quintet whose team members were attached to the ASTP at Kansas State. Among the outstanding cage prospects now out for football is Jay Payton, a two letterman formerly of Emporia State College. Payton played with the Camp Crowder basketball team last winter, helping the army five to a brilliant season record.

Workman, Belleville VARSITY FRIDAY - SATURDAY "Strangers in the Night" "San Antonio Kid" COMING SUNDAY "Hi Neighbor" Traveling Civilians Can Blame Selves If Stranded in South Washington—"Tourists who find themselves stranded in Florida and other southern resort regions this winter and next spring will have only themselves to blame," Col. J. Monroe Johnson, director of the office of defense transportation warned today. "Pleasure travelers who insist on forcing their way onto southern trains not only do so at the risk of disdodging military and other essential travelers, but also stand an excellent chance of being stranded for considerable periods of time when attempting to make a return trip north. The ODT will, under no circumstances, provide relief trains to return such passengers to their homes. "American transportation," Col. Johnson said, "still is busily engaged in helping win two wars and there is no space or equipment available for civilian travelers not actively engaged in the war effort. While the transportation situation remains tight all over the country it is extremely critical on those routes serving the southern areas on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. "Pleasure travelers who fail to heed this warning will have to make their way northward as best they JAYHAWKER "Trains, for example, have been running at more than capacity during the entire summer," the ODT director said. "Probably 75 per cent of all passengers are members of the armed forces, most of the remainder being civilians traveling on essential business connected with the war. It is obvious that with trains crowded beyond normal capacity with such essential travelers that there is no room for the pleasure or non-essential traveler.

He is speaking under the auspices of the Educational Reconditioning Service. His topic is "Synthetic Chemistry." He will also speak at an informal reception of Sigma Xi, honoring science fraternity, in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building Thursday. Dr. Brewer, who is the retiring president of the Kansas chapter, has chosen "Historical Development of Some Modern Chemical Theories," as his subject. "While the rate of increase in 1944 has been slowed down to some extent," Colonel Johnson said, "actual passenger traffic is running more than 14 per cent ahead of last year." The ODT also announced today that traffic on the Nation's railroads for the first eight months of 1944 was almost eight billion passenger miles above the record for the same period last year. Railroads serving the various southern resort areas are informing their patrons that purchase of a round-trip ticket does not assure the purchaser of return space within any specified period of time. can and with no aid from this office," he said.
