French Leads Whites in Frosh Squad Game
Freshman football squadmen held their second inter-team game Friday and the Whites led by Bud French were victorious by a 6 to 0 score.
Playing scoreless for three quarters. the Whites finally rallied following an interception by their brilliant halfback, Bud French. Three plays later a Pierce to French pass gave the Whites their score.
Standouts in the White backfield were French, White, and Pierce, while the Golds were led by big John Dewell's line plunges, which were always good for four or five yards. Dewell, usually an exceptional punter, was having difficulty in booting his usual distance. Coffin, a two year all-state quarterback from Independence, and Waldecker, state sprint champion from Hutchinson, added yardage to the Gold's total by their around end plays.
In the lines, stellar performances were turned in by Keller, Churchhill, and Taylor Brady for the Golds, and Wilson, Riegel, and Capito for the winners. Capito played the outstanding defensive game in the line, throwing back the Gold's Dewell for three consecutive plays when the Golds had a first down with goal to go after Dewell's interception of a pass thrown by Pierce.
SOONERS DOWN--opening kickoff to their own 41-yard line, and from there proceeded to reel off a first down in impress-
(continued from page one) sophomore stalwart, who backed up the forward wall in sensational fashion. His tackling was vicious, and he repeatedly brought down Sooner runners just as they seemed destined to break out into the open field. Warren Hodges, Jayhawk game captain, also turned in a fine performance as Oklahoma plungers bounced back time and time again as they tried his position.
Paul Hardman turned in his best game of the season at the right end post.
Injuries to Jayhawk players were frequent, with Schnell-bacher, Baker, Penny, and Dick all leaving the game with injuries of various degrees.

sive fashion. Hamm was forced to punt, however, and his kick went over the goal.
Evans immediately whipped a beautiful pass to Hardman for 22 yards. The Kansas attack then bogged down, however, and Evans punted. On their third down the Sooners lost 15 yards on a bad snapback from center. Davis punted to Baker who ran the ball back beautifully to midfield.
Pass Is Completed
Kansas could not gain and was forced to punt. On the first Sooner play Mattox dashed 12 yards around end. The next three plays failed to gain, however, and Hamm punted deep into Kansas territory. Evans promptly broke loose for a 28-yard run around left end. Two plays later an Evans pass bounced off Schnellbacher into the arms of Hamm.
After Oklahoma had punted, Linquist and Sherwood ripped off a first down for the Kansas squad on the Sooner 46-yard line. Evans, who was rushed fast all day on passing plays and received poor blocking from his mates, was dropped for a 13-yard loss as he could not find a receiver.
In Sooner Territory
Evans opened the second quarter by punting out of bounds on the Sooner 17-yard line. A penalty set the Sooners back, and Hamm had to punt. Baker and Linquist racked up a first down, and the ball was again in Oklahoma territory. Evans then clicked with a pass to Hardman and the Jayhawks were on the Sooner 34-yard line. Three plays failed to gain, however, and Evans was again forced to punt.
Shanks and Evans exchanged punts, with the Sooners gaining. Shanks then broke loose for a first down. The Kansas line then stiffened, and Shanks again punted. After Evans had kicked back to his own 46-yard line, the Oklahoma squad began to roll.
Boone Baker ran five yards, and then Hamm dropped back, took his time, and whipped a pass to Mattox who raced to the Kansas 19. Mattox and Hamm made it a first down on the Kansas 7-yard line, and two plays later Devis went over. Hamm failed to kick the extra point. The half ended in a flurry of incomplete Kansas passes.
Mattox Scores
Oklahoma wasted little time in the second half. Davis ran the kickoff back to his 35-yard line, and on the next play dashed off tackle for 15 yards. Hamm then passed to Mattox on the Oklahoma 23-yard line, and the Sooner back sidestepped Evans, and raced on for the tally. Davis failed to kick the extra point.
Kansas failed to gain after receiving the kickoff, and punted. Oklahoma followed suit, and a punting duel followed between Evans and the brilliant Hamm. Midway in the period Hamm and Davis sparked a Sooner drive to the Jayhawk five yard line. There big Warren Hodges twice stopped the hard-driving Hamm, before a penalty set the visitors back. On the next play,

BILL CAMPBELL OF OKLAHOMA
A penalty and an Evans to Schnellbacher pass was good for a first down. Oklahoma then held, and Evans punted. Davis reeled off a first down into Kansas territory. Hamm passed to MacDonald, who was brought down from behind by the fleet Evans. Two plays later, however, Davis scored. Hamm converted.
As the fourth period began, Kansas was unable to gain after receiving the kickoff. Evans punted to Son Wright who ran the ball back brilliantly to his 39-yard line. Hamm passed to Tyrese for a first down. Cawthon and Hamm then added another on the ground. Wright broke loose for five yards,
and Hamm passed to Cawton on the Jayhawk 14-yard line.
Hamm smashed at the Kansas line four times, and on the final trial bounced off tackle to score. Steele failed to kick the extra point.
Sophomore Stars
Kansas received the kickoff, and Evans passed to Schnellbacher for a first down. A penalty and Evans' running brought another first down. Evans' passes slipped through the fingers of the intended receivers, however, and the former Wyandotte ace was forced to punt. Sophomore Don Fauble plunged twice for an Oklahoma first down. He then collaborated with Baker and Cawthon for another. He then faded back and shot a pass to Andrews in Kansas territory.
After two incomplete passes, Fauble and Cawthon raced around the ends for a first down. Two more Fauble passes were incomplete, however, and then substitute back Kenneth Adams intercepted one of the sophomore's tosses on the Kansas 16-yard line and raced it back into Oklahoma territory. The game ended with Evans passing in vain.
The winners held a 16 to 8 margin in first downs, 11 of which were racked up in the second half. Oklahoma also led in total yards gained, 333 to 144.
Ball Is Slippery
Evans' passing was hindered by the fast charging Sooner ends, eratic receiving on the part of his teammates, and a ball that was sometimes very slippery.
