simeon Remains Only Cripple
C. U. Is Bringing Three Teams Dutch Meyer, T.C.U. mentor, will take three teams to Kansas City to elit against the Jayhawks—two first lams and a reserve eleven. Meyer is been having trouble distinguishing between first and second stringings. Only sure starters will be Albinoudek and N. B. Thomas at the guard slots, with wingbacks Jesse Jason and Bob Ruff also pretty secure in their positions. This week's dog workouts have mostly been嵌erned with defensive tactics, during out how to stop what seems to be an effective Jayhawk scoring touch.
Shenk instilled in the squad yesterday that they were going down Kansas City to win, not to come with merely a moral victory.
Allen Says Summer Intramurals Great
"The summer intramurals program recently concluded was so successful that varsity basketball practice had to be postponed," Dr. F. C. Allen, director of intramurals commented today. Twelve teams entered the intramural basketball tournament when only six were expected, and of these twelve, ten were able to finish the season. The Phi Delta and the Phi Gams finished on top with 9 victories and one loss apiece, with residence halls a strong third. Other teams entered in order of their final standing were Sigma Chi, Beta, Delta Tau (tied with Beta), SAE, Phi Chi, G. Dominoes, and John Moore Co-op.
Finish Was Exciting
Immediately following the basketball tournament a swimming meet was held. Entries in the tournament held in the K. U. pool included Phi Psi, Beta, Battenfeld, Sigma Nu, and a number of unattached swimmers. The Betas walked off with top honors by amassing 27 points as compared with Phi Psi's 14, Sigma Nu's 8, and 1 by Battenfeld. The group of unattached boys totaled 27 points also.
Kennan Gets Much of Credit Dr. Allen credited much of the success of the tournaments to his assistant, Ray Kanehl. Mr. Kanehl did his utmost to insure men on the campus with something to do during the summer. The intramural program for this fall will be worked out at a meeting to be held the latter part of this week.
Moscow—INS—Izvestia, official organ of the Soviet government today accused Finland of delay in carrying out the preliminary Soviet conditions to peace negotiations regarding disarmament and surrender of German forces in Finland. Meanwhile unofficial reports of the Russo-Finnish peace terms indicates that the Finns may have "committed political and economic suicide due to the harsh terms of the pact."
High spot of the season was the story book finish staged by the winners during the last two days of play when they both took the measure of the previously undefeated residence halls. Most of the teams were well-stocked with varsity and high school stars, and well-played games were an everyday occurrence.

One shots — T.C.U. scout in the stands Friday night was Hub McQuillan, Norned Frogs basketball coach. The Southwest Conference mentor wired back that the Kansas boys really know what to do with the ball. . . . The loss of Walt Isaacson via the "Great Lakes" method may hurt the KU. offense no little bit. . . . Shenk is knee deep in guards this year — Ivory Bird, Garland Cantrell, Dud Day, Charles Keller, and Dick Dreher being only a few of the fine prospects at present. . . . Fans wondering how drop-kick specialist Bill Chestnut records such a high percentage of conversions would do well to watch him send hundreds of pigskins end over between the uprights night after night at practice sessions.
sessions.
Olathe Added to Schedule—Olathe naval air station has been added to K.U.'s 1944 football schedule, the game being scheduled for the afternoon of Nov. 4 here in Memorial Stadium. Although little is known about what sort of team the Clippers may field, the game will be heartily welcomed by the many Jayhawk grid followers who have been somewhat irked over the measly three home games on this year's schedule. Rivalry between Jayhawker and Clipper basketball teams has grown quite intense during the past two years, with the two eastern Kansas fives just about breaking
Syndicated sports writers are not giving K.U. even a ghost's chance of winning out over T.C.U. in Saturday night's game in Kansas City. Evidently these "experts" haven't learned of the Jayhawk's scoring punch as unveiled Friday against Washburn, or else they do not consider that such a small college as the Ichabods represent, any test for a state university eleven. Practice sessions of the last few nights, however, indicate Coach Henry Shenk may toss a bombshell into Ruppert stadium in the guise of a very tricky ball club. All that could prevent the Jayhawks from turning the tide might be the lack of a pass defense, and Shenk has been stressing that very thing all week.

even. Although this is the first year the Olathe station has had a grid team, the competition inaugurated the last two winters should carry over into this season.
Football King a Question—Big Six sports scribes are crawling out on a limb all around us and picking this year's football king. The selections so far have included every one except Mrs. Murphy's cat. Pre-season squad workouts have indicated that any one of them may top the race except possibly Kansas State or Nebraska. The last two mentioned will probably be barely able to struggle with all civilian teams. Missouri, the other civilian entry, is this corner's choice for top honors, for the reason that most of the navy-stocked teams will be badly shaken up come Nov. 1. The Sooners open their season against the Norman Navy Zoomers Sept. 30, a team that is never a soft touch for anybody, while the Cyclones entertain little Adolphus College.
About one-third of all who have been physically examined have been found to be unfit for general military service under current army and navy standards.
