Intramural Play Into Second Day
As Phi Kappa Fsi battles the Pflugerville Pflashes this afternoon in what will probably be today's outstanding struggle, the intramural touch football season goes into its second day of competition.
Others games scheduled for today are between the Sigma Phi Epsilon eleven and Kappa Sigma, Templin Hall and Theta Tau, and in the six man bracket Alpha Chi Sigma and Kappa Eta Kappa. Other six man games are between the Tennessee Club and the Ramblers, and Battenfeld Hall and the Jayhawk Co-op.
On Thursday the outstanding fray appears to be Sigma Chi and Phi Gamma Delta, the defending champions. This clash should prove to be a stellar passing duel between the 1940 all-star Larry Smith (Sigma Chi) and John Conley, big Fiji ace who received all-star recognition last year.
Other Thursday games will include the Medic Whiz Kids vs. ATO, Phi Delt vs. Pi KA, Blanks vs. Delta Chi, Hopkins vs. John Moore Co-op, and Rock Chalk Co-op vs. Triangle. The last three games are six man contests.
Under the offensive leadership of Johnny Short, Bill Mowery, and Tom Lillard, the Beta's topped the Sig Alph crew last Saturday 12-0 in a hotly contested battle. Standouts in the stubborn Sig Alph defensive stand were Schloesser, Humphrey, and Gage.
TKE stopped Delta Tau Delta Saturday 12-0 in a rather unimpressive game. Linthicum of TKE was the outstanding man on the field, shining in both receiving and passing.
Hopkin's Hall overwhelmed Triangle 19-6 in their six man bout. Jolliffe Hall forfeited their Saturday game to Delta Chi, and the remaining games were postponed.
OKLAHOMA HOPES--placements, however, consist entirely of sophomores. At the tackle posts the same situation exists, with starters Homer Simmons and Sammy Stephens being the only experienced men. Sophomore reserves, however, are talented.
(continued from page four) in the nation. Texas, regarded as one of the hardest running squads in the nation, had to resort to an aerial bombardment in the second half to cross the Oklahoma goal.
Missing from last year's team are a trio of brilliant backs, Jack Jacobs, now performing brilliantly in ball, Oville Mathews, and Joe Golding. Other missing first stringers are tackles Roger
SON WRIGHT
Eason and Howard Teeter, guard George Boudreau, and center Leo Cowling. Also missing from this year's roster are five members of last year's second string, Sharpe, Smith, Andros, Harris, and Fischer. Lettermen In Service
In all, 20 1941 Sooner lettermen are now in the armed forces or employed in war industries.
The Sooner team received another severe blow when Dave Wallace, sophomore breakaway runner, was injured and lost for the season. He had been heavily counted upon to replace the graduated Golding.
Luster's starting ends have been very adequate, indeed, for there are no better wingmen in the Big Six than Dub Lamb and Jim Tyree. Replacements, however, consist entirely of sophomores. At the tackle posts the same situation exists, with starters Homer Simmons and Sammy Stephens being the only experienced men. Sophomore reserves, however, are talented.
Three lettermen and an outstanding sophomore take care of the guard positions for Luster in fine style. Clare Morford rates as one of the top guards in the Midwest, and George Gibbons and Mitch Shadid are not far behind him. C. F. Bryce is the promising rookie. Marseis Returns
Veteran Jack Marsee is holding down the center position, but other linebackers are woefully hacking.
Two fine blocking backs lead two sets of backs which Luster alternates against the opposition. The blockers are Bill Campbell and Jack Steele, both experts at clearing the way for ball-luggers. Myrle Greathouse is a promising sophomore blocker.
Three quarterbacks have been
battling for the starting call all fall. Two seniors—J. S. Munsey and Pat Shanks — have seen the most action so far. Not to be overlooked, however, is junior Pete Cawthron, Jr., of the former Texas Tech coach.
JIM TYREE
Luster has two veteran wingbacks to carry on where Mathews left off last year. Bill Mattox, a senior, has been doing heavy duty so far this fall. Son Wright, a junior, however, has also seen considerable action. Hamm Top Passer
At fullback Huel Hamm, a vet-
eran, and junior Eddie Davis have been battling for the starting call.
Hamm is perhaps the best passer on the squad, and tips the scales at 195 pounds. Don Fauble, a sophomore, may see some service.
At first glance, it would seem to the observer that the Oklahoma team is long on backfield men and short on line power, especially in reserves. So far this fall, however, the Sooners have displayed a stout forward wall, while the backs have failed to live up to expectations. Luster is hoping Hamm, Wright, Mattox, Davis, and company find themselves Saturday against the Jayhawks, and break their scoring drouth.

Naval Students Receive Rigid Physical Training
After ten minutes of calisthenics the boys engage in such games as touch football, volleyball, boxing, horse shoes, soft ball, and Dr. Forrest C. Allen's game of Goal-Hi.
Over six hundred naval students are starting an extensive physical training program on the University of Kansas campus this week under the guidance of Chief Specialist Bain.
In answer to questions concerning possible participation in intercollegiate sports, Chief Specialist Bain pointed out that the Great Lakes Naval Training School and the Iowa Seahawks make an effort to acquire former athletes, and consequently, are able to turn out such good teams. Since that effort is not promoted at Kansas University's Naval Training school, it will not be able to engage in this advanced competition. However, Bain expressed his desire to enter teams in the University's intramural basketball program.
Tests were begun Monday to determine the physical fitness of the entrees in the Naval School. These tests include chin ups, standing broadjump, push ups, and lean backs with an average navy score of 166 as the aim.
At 5:55 a.m. all naval students take a brisk set up of exercises for fifteen minutes. Then, the large group is divided into platoons of approximately 120 men, which have a planned hour of diversified athletics.
By Jack Moore
For the new entrées a high of 424 and a low of 218 were scored in Monday's tests, while their average was 295. According to these results the new recruits are already in good physical condition, Bain said.

Alumni Round-up At K.U.-T.C.U. Game
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary reports an attendance of about 40 alumni at the round-up Saturday in for the Kansas-Texas Christian football game. Most of the members attending were members of the North Texas Alumni Association, composed of alumni from Ft. Worth and Dallas.
At the alumni dinner, each member present introduced himself and explained his present job. Coach Vic Hurt and Gwinn Henry and Fred Ellsworth carried news of the University to the Transs.
Robert Perry, a 1936 graduate, retiring president of the Dallas-Ft. Worth Alumni Association. had charge of the reunion and dinner at the Colonial Country Club. Victor Tomilson of Ft. Worth, a grad of the School of Law in 1921, was elected president of the association. Other officers elected were Ross Forney of Dallas, a 1912 graduate, vice-president; and Dorothy Walker Neal of Dallas, a 1935 graduate, secretary.
Geology Fraternity Hears Dr. R. C. Moore
Because of their importance in national defense, geologists have been recently deferred from selective service, Dr. Raymond C. Moore, state geologist, told a group of geologists at a meeting in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building Thursday. He also spoke on the future of geologists in the war.
Among those present at the meeting were geology department personnel. members of the Sigma Gamma Epsilon honorary geology fraternity, John Fry, assistant state geologist, and some members of the U. S. Geological Survey, headed by Stan Lohmen.
Dr. Smith, assistant professor of geology showed some slides of military aerial photography, contour maps, and various geological formations of the world.
Final preparations for the freshman "Nightshirt Parade" will be made at the KuKu club meeting at 9 o'clock this evening in the men's student lounge of the Memorial Union building.
The KuKu's and the K-Club will unite this year in sponsoring the parade. The "guests of honor" will be freshmen only.
