Sooners Win In Second Half Push
By J. Donald Keown, Kansan Sports Editor
A plucky Kansas Jayhawk squad finally cracked in the second half of yesterday's game at Memorial Stadium, and the Oklahoma Sooners rolled to a 25 to 0 triumph.
A stubborn Kansas line, aided by the first indication of a ground attack the Jayhawks have shown this year, succeeded through most of the first half in keeping the hard-running Sooners at Bay. However, the visitors finally found paydirt in the second quarter with but one minute of play remaining. They
period, and tallied their final touchdown in the fourth quarter of play.
Standing out in the Sooner victory were two ramming fullbacks,
HUEL HAMM OF OKLAHOMA
Huel Hamm and Eddie Davis. Hamm had but this week been transferred to quarterback position by coach Dewey Luster, so that the Sooners could benefit from the combined running power of the Oklahoma City boy and Davis.
Davis scored the first Sooner touchdown from the five-yard line, after a pass from Hamm to Mattox had put the ball in scoring position. Another Hamm to Mattox toss was good for the second touchdown, with but one minute of play gone in the third period.
Davis plowed over for the third touchdown from the one-yard line, after another pass from the unstoppable Hamm had placed the ball deep in Jayhawk territory. Hamm slipped off tackle in the final quarter to dash five yards for the last Sooner touchdown.
Baker Looks Good
In the line it was Junius Penny (continued to page five)
For Kansas it was once again Ray Evans in the backfield. Evans experienced his poorest day this fall in the passing department, but turned in an outstanding defensive and running game. He received assistance from quarterback Hoyt Baker, who replaced the injured Harlan Altman in the starting lineup, and Ed Linquist, who played despite the handcap of an injury suffered in the TCU game. Baker appeared at times to be the broken-field runner the Jayhawks have needed so badly all season.
Raymond Moore Leaves for Army
When. Dr. Raymond C Moore leaves for the army next Friday, Kansas loses its state geologist, at least two committees of the national geological council bid good-bye to their chairman, the Kansas Chapter of Sigma Psi, national scientific research fraternity sacrifices a president and the University finds itself minus a respected staff member of 26 years service.
Worked with Minerals
Although the geology professor has been a member of the Engineering Reserve Corps since 1929. Friday will mark the beginning of his first real military experiences. During the last World War he did war minerals work for the treasury department and served as an instructor in the SATC (1916 equivalent of present day ROTC) but was never really "in the army."
Since the present conflict opened, he has devoted much of his time to war pursuits, particularly to locating new supplies of oil, gas, and coal, but his energies have never been so completely mobilized for

House Approves Teen-Age Draft; Back To Senate
Washington—The House passed the bill calling for the drafting of 18 and 19-year-old men for military service yesterday afternoon and the bill now goes to the Senate. An amendment to require a year's training before active service was defeated 212 to 42, and an attempt to limit the age to 19 years was defeated 155 to 55. Senate approval is expected.
Military leaders opposed quite strongly the attempts to provide for a year's training before the teenage draftees would be sent into active service, asserting that this would be tying their hands in the successful prosecution of the war.
The bill provides, however, that no one would be taken into service before the end of June, 1943. An additional recommendation that unmarried men in the general draft be taken before married men met approval of the House.
A joint committee of the House and Senate working on the tax bill recommended a heavy tax on corporate and personal incomes, and on liquor and tobacco.

Cossack Chorus Here Wednesday
Nearly a hundred Kansas editors dropped their pencils and covered their typewriters yesterday to discuss their war-time problems in the annual Kansas Editors' Day at the University. Leaving their desks in the midst of the newspaper-promoted scrap drive, the editors heard Frank Clough, one of the men who direct the voluntary press censorship plan in the United

and battle-strewn way from the campus to Sixth street and down Massachusetts street to South park.
The Nightshirt Parade may be tradition to the student body at large, but for the freshmen, the Ku Ku's, K-Men, and any innocent bystanders who may be caught in the scuffle it is madness, mayhem, and murder on the hoof.
It was open season on single Ku-Ku's with paddles, and many were the splintered instruments of authority that lay strewn across the streets when the parade had passed on its way. With shouts of "Paddle! Paddle!" and other unintelligible war cries that resembled nothing so much as the rebel shouts that heralded the Confederate army in the Civil war, the freshmen in their flapping nightshirts and variegated pajamas finally reached the scene of the rally in South Park.
With recalcitrant freshmen mobbing the Ku Ku's at the slightest provocation—sometimes the sight of a paddle was enough to set them off, the feel of it enough to get them back in line- the doormoor its tortuous $ \textcircled{1} $
Must Call at Hospital For X-Ray Reports
Reports on the chest x-rays taken of new students at Watkins Memorial hospital Sept. 22 to 30 are ready, Dr. R. I. Canuteson, director of the University health service, has announced. Students may obtain these reports by calling in person at the hospital during regular clinic hours. Organized groups wishing to obtain reports must select a representative, who must present authorization from all persons v'om the reports are intended.
Food handlers should not call at the hospital for reports, he said, as these reports will be sent to the individuals by the Douglas county health service.
States, assert that it is the right and duty of every editor to be a "typewriter strategist."
Kansas Editors' Day, sponsored by the department of journalism, was begun at 8 o'clock in the morning by registration in the Journalism building. From 9 to 10:30 a.m. a "wrangle session," which featured impromptu discussions on topics closest to the interests of the editors took place in room 102.
The totalitarian concept of censorship was compared with that of the United States by Basil "Stuffy" Walters, executive editor of the Minneapolis Star-Journal and Tribune.
Ed Abels, president of the National Editorial Association. greeted the editors and opened the formal portion of the program. Abels emphasized the importance of the country press. The overwhelming success of the scrap drive, he said, demonstrated the power of the country press as never before. The government today wants and is asking for the support of that power.
