Washburn Out, Nebraska Next Say Jayhawkers
With their first victory of the season tucked under their feathers, the University of Kansas Jayhawks go into practice this week confident that their next opponent, the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers, will be Victim No. 2. And if such turns out to be, it will be the first time in 26 years that a Kansas team has been able to turn the trick. Having not won over Nebraska since 1916, Kansas has in the ancient rivalry dating back to 1892 won only 9 games while losing 37 and tieing three.
While the Jayhawks were tramppling the Washburn Ichabods, here 13 to 0 last Saturday, the Cornhuskers were losing their third straight game to the Iowa State Cyclones, 6 to 27, the same team that defeated the Jayhawks the week previous by a much smaller margin, 13 to 6. Score in Second and Fourth
In defeating Washburn in their second meeting, the Jayhawks scored touchdowns in the second and fourth quarters. A crowd of 2,500 which was largely made up of service men watched the Jayhawks get revenge for the scoreless tie they were held to by this same Ichabod eleven three weeks before.
Kansas pushed across a touchdown late in the second quarter with
Fullback Bob Carson plunging over from the 5-yard line, climaxing a 34-yard march to the goal. Having held Kansas for downs on their own 10-yard line, Washburn punched out on their own 34. Carson promptly ripped the Washburn line for good gains, with John Bergin, Kansas speed merchant, carrying the ball to the enemy 5 from the 15. Bergin had faked a pass, and, finding an opening, cut around his right end. After Bergin had gained a yard to the four, Carson crashed over for the score. Carson's place kick for extra point was good.
Drive 61 yards to Score
In the fourth quarter Kansas drove 61 yards to a score with first Miller then Barrington, tearing the blue
line to shreds.

It was Bob Carson and John Bergin sparking the first Kansas touchdown Saturday and their substitutes. Don

Monte Manuel, Ichabod back, fumbled the final quarter kickoff and Kansas had the ball on the Ichabod 38-yard line again in scoring territory. The Jayhawks, with subs in the lineup, were again touchdown-bound as three plays brought the ball to the 18. Manuel redeemed himself, however, and intercepted a Kansas pass on his own 10 to cut off Kansas' final threat.
Hello, Are You There
The whistle had blown and the University of Kansas - Washburn football game had started. Harry Morrow, reporter for the Journal-World, started calling the results to his downtown office assistants over the telephone. But not a sound reached them.
Someone had stolen the telephone batteries.
The game was all Kansas as the Jayhawks piled up 14 first downs and gained 216 yards on the ground and 42 through the air. Washburn failed to register a single first down as they had a net total of only 8 yards gained from both rushing and passing.
passing. Even though they were playing against weaker competition, the Kansas line did perform very well and deserve much credit for the victory. Kansas' punting was good for the first time this season as John Bergin in six punts averaged 35 yards a boot.

From the Sidelines

Ray Kanehl, formerly of Wichita East who has been put in charge of civilian intramurals by Dr. F. C. Allen, wonders what the trouble is with all these civilian groups—fraternities, residence halls, and otherwise. To date, two meetings have been called to decide upon fall civilian intramurals with only two groups represented at the first and six at the second meeting last Thursday. Hence, another meeting has been called for tomorrow at 4:30 in room 202 of Robinson Gymnastium. At the second meeting at which only Battenfeld hall, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Gamma Delta, Tau Kappa Epsilon, and Delta Tau Delta were among those represented, it was decided that 8-man touch football would be the most successful fall sport. It was agreed that most organizations were too hard up for men to field 11-man teams so the team of 8 was decided upon, with 5 in the line and 3 in the backfield. At first it was thought that if equipment could be obtained that 6-man tackle football might be in order as probably the best conditioner, but this plan has been sideded because of the equipment expense involved.

Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen has not been slow in getting prepared for the winter cage season. Starting practices as early as the first week of October, Allen has twice sent his basketball hopefuls through intensive offensive drills and last Thursday called for his first scrimmage session. On one team he had "Sparky" McSpadden, Arkansas City, Don Diehl, Smith Center, Bob Malott, Lawrence, Dean Corder, Welda, and Kirk Scott Newton. In a 5 minute scrimmage this队 defeated 6 to 0 a team which had Warren Jacks, Coats, Ed Lindquist, Creighton University, Bob Matthew, Paseo, Kansas City, Clay Hedrick, Newton, and Boook, Macksville. Don Diehl's two tip ins and Dean Corder's long shots gave the former their six points. McSpadden is a letterman from last year's Kansas Big Six champs. Diehl and Jacks both had played freshman ball here. Among the civilians and V-12's out, there are several other candidates who show promise. Football players whom Dr. Allen is counting on strongly are George Dick, a letterman, Charles Moffett, and Don Barrington.
