Jayhawkers Look Ragged Against Frosh
By BILL PORTER
In a ragged exhibition of basketball, the Jayhawk varsity quintet defeated the freshman, 45-24, before 1,800 cage fans in Hoch auditorium Tuesday.
The contest, in which the varsity gained an early lead and held it throughout, was a dull one, and resembled in no way the tilt of two years back when the varsity copped a victory by a two-point margin.
The only excitement came a few minutes after the beginning of the second half, when Charlie Black displayed his old form by putting one in from under the basket. The varsity scored again as Paul Turner tipped in a pass from Ray Evans.
Then Al Nicoleo scored for the frosh, after which Don Burt tallied more freshman points with a long shot. John Buescher sank one for the varsity, and Black accidentally tipped in a freshman basket as the activity ended.
Freshman standouts were John Dewell, all-Ark valley and all-state center at Newton last year, who turned in a good game at a forward post and Al Nicolet and Don Burt, who led the attack with 10 points. Burt had the crowd buzzing over his long shots.
After his varsity five had built up an early lead, Dr. F. C. Allen substituted freely in search of the reserve power that his squad is noticeably lacking this year. John Short, outstanding performer on the second team, put in the contest, and Bob Fitzpatrick, who scored six points, played well.

Rita Lemaine's six free throws for the Pi Phi's gave them a one point victory over their Gamma Phi opponents. The score was 6-5.
IWW won 20-1 over the IND's with Levon Jacobson netting 10 of the 20 points. Frances Davidson's excellent defensive work helped hold the IND's to their low score.

Miss Ruth Hoover will announce the schedule for next week tomorrow.

BETAS WIN--were damaged, and the pilot was forced to level the plane with his knees pressed against the controls. Machine gun shells smashed through a hydraulic line, splashing oil into the face of one of the gunners. A propeller stuck, and then enemy lead bit into the left foot of Cliburn.
Henry Shenk, R.R. Strait, and John Anderson turned in one of the best officiating jobs of the season.
The eleven-man all-stars, selected by the intramural managers from a poll taken of the members of their teams and the officials from their organization, contained four of the championship Beta squad.
The caliber of the backfield material was so even that the eight men selected could be changed from one team to the other and neither team would suffer a loss. A few more second place votes made the difference in the personnel of the two teams.
The line also contained many players of nearly the same ability. Center was the only position in which one player polled nearly all the first place votes. Bob Fierce of the Beta's outranked his rivals.
Assault on St. Nazaire Palmer Wounded
Lt. Philip Palmer, Wellington youth and former student at this University, was wounded recently when he and other crew members on a Flying Fortress escaped death while taking part in an aerial assault upon the U-boat base at St. Nazaire, France.
Palmer, co-pilot on the ship flown by Lt. Charles "Red" Cliburn of Hazelhurst Miss., was one of several crew members wounded after dropping its bombs upon the Nazi base, the huge plane was attacked on its homeward journey by a flock of Focke-Wulf 190's.
Enemy cannon shells ripped holes in the Fortress' wings and fuselage, and wounding Palmer. Cliburn's oxygen mask was shot away, and the bomber's compass and radio were put out of commission. Enemy fire also wounded the radio operator.

Machine gun shells smashed through a hydraulic line, splashing oil into the face of one of the gunners. A propeller stuck, and then enemy lead bit into the left foot of Cliburn.
The gunners and the pilot continued their firing and one of the Nazi planes was brought down. The others finally fleed. With the tail wheel stuck and visibility almost zero, Cliburn managed to land his plane safely on the third attempt. The Fortress was badly riddled.
Lieutenant Palmer attended the University in the fall of 1939 and the spring of 1940. He was a student in the School of Business.
