Dr. Calvin VanderWerf, who pitched all of the Blanks' victories, was on the mound again yesterday. Warren Reigle, Phi Gam mainstay, pitched for the losers.
A rally in the seventh inning which threatened to bring the Phi Gams into the lead was cut down when VanderWerf struck out Thom. as for the final out with the tying runs on bases.
The Fijis took advantage of errors to gain the lead by scoring two runs to the Blanks' one in the first inning. Thereafter they went scoreless until the last inning while the Blanks gained the lead with two runs in the third inning, and added runs in successive innings.

Acquittal Denied 29 In Sedition Trial
Washington, (INS)—Chief Justice Edward C. Eicher today denied a defense motion for a directed verdict of acquittal in the mass sedition conspiracy trial of 29 men and women.
The motion was based on the supreme court's reversal last week of the conviction of Elmer Hartzell of Chicago for having sent scurrilous pamphlets to members of the armed services.

In any discussion of the Kansas Jayhawker, sticklers for the historic drag in the Hesperornis regalis, fossil bones of which were discovered in this territory as long ago as 1870. Hesperornis is supposed to have been the ancestor of Jayhawkernis Kansasensis (technical term for the University mascot).
Ancestor Has Teeth

According to Kirke Mecham, secretary of the Kansas State Historical Society. "The old Hesperornis was a good-sized bird, the skeleton attaining a length of six feet from tip to beak to the end of outstretched toes, and his height in stocking feet was four and a half feet." He had not only the big strong beak like that of the modern Jayhawk, but his upper and lower jaws were armed with a row of very sharp-pointed teeth. It is perhaps unfortunate that these teeth, inherited from reptilian ancestors, have been lost in the later evolution of the Jayhawk. There are many times when they would come in handy.
