Kansas' coach, F. C. "Phog" Allen, is gloomy. His Jayhawkers looked anything but impressive as they opened their home season with a last minute 36-35 win over Denver last night. Bethel's coach, Otto D. Unruh, who learned his basketball from "Phog" on the Kansas quintet in 1927-28, is gloomy. He has no lettermen returning from last year's squad. With veteran prospects at a low ebb, Coach Unruh hopes to develop his inexperienced freshmen and sophomores into a winning combination for Bethel. On the starting five Unruh has one senior, Roy Bartel, teamed with two Many Christmas Long Distance calls will be delayed We simply do not have enough long distance lines to handle at a moment's notice all the calls that flood our offices after important war broadcasts, and after 7 p.m. on almost any evening nowadays. It is as if thousands of citizens in every community appeared at the railroad station at the same hour, hoping to catch the same train. Even before the outbreak of war we had foreseen that delays inevitably would occur on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Now it appears the volume of calls will be even heavier than we had anticipated. We have done and are doing all we can to make ready for these big rushes, but they are setting all-time records. Thousands of conversations vital to the Army and Navy—vital to the defense of this nation—go over the telephone lines each day, each night. Some of them may delay your calls. We are sure you understand. We appreciate your co-operation, your patience. SOUTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY A suggestion: If you will call by number whenever possible and try not to talk too long, you will help to ease the delay periods for yourself and for others. --- frosh, Harold Balzer and Irvin Schroeder, a sophomore, Earl Bartel, and a junior, Melbourne Stukey. In early season practice three men-Balzer, Schroeder, and Roy Bartel—have shown scoring punch for the Graymaroons. Stukey's 6 foot 4 inch stature makes him the key defensive man. MILITARY AUTHORITIES (continued from page six) serious turn this afternoon when usually reliable sources close to the government expressed belief that certain high government officials would tomorrow deny rumors to the effect that there is not a Santa Claus. These high circles are expected to reassure the public that there is a Santa Claus and confirm widespread belief that he will ride as usual again this Christmas eve. This rumor, if true, would deal a devastating blow to morale on the home front and. would conclusively prove what fascist governments have been saying for many months now, that there is no Santa Claus. Morale is Internet It is impossible at this early moment to estimate the tremendous and far reaching effect that such a declaration would have upon the policies of the various belligerents in the present war but it is very generally assumed to be of the gravest importance. Whether or not this rumor was started by the enemy's far flung espionage system or whether it is the result of fifth column elements operating exclusively within the United States is not possible to state with certainty at this time but it is certain, however, that this rumor was started by subversive elements within the United States hoping to split the country into two factions and hamper the nation's war effort.
