Unbeaten Pflashes Upset by Beta's
Phi Delt's Meet Beta's Tomorrow Morning
Upsetting the heretofore unbeaten Pflugerville Pflashes 15 to 6, Beta Theta Pi moved the Phi Delta Theta once-tied team into first place in Division II. In the afternoon's remaining frays, the Phi Delt' s trounced Delta Upsilon 32-6, Sigma Chi and Delta Tau Delta battled to a 0-0 draw, the Blanks won from Battenfeld 19-13, and Rock Chalk Co-op downed the Jayhawk Co-op 13-7. Sigma Chi now rests in a first place tie with Phi Gamma Delta for the leadership of Division I.
Warren Newcomer and Dave Prager sparked the Phi Delt's in their 32-6 win over D.U. Newcomer scored 12 points and passed the ball for 13 more points. In the second quarter Phi Delt Jim Waugh fell on a kicked-off ball in the end zone for a counter. Phil Russell scored the D.U. touchdown by catching a long pass. Russell was the steadiest player for Delta Upsilon.
Plugerville lost its first game of the season to a revitalized Beta eleven by a score of 15-6. Beta Bill Mowery passed the first counter to John Short. Later in the game Mowery ran over for the second touchdown. Tom O'Neil tagged Harry White behind the Pflash goal line for a safety. Pflugerville Don Mason picked up a bad Beta punt and ran six yards for the Pflash touchdown.
Delta Tau battled the Sigma Chi's to a 0-0 tie yesteday. Jack Wilson, playing his first eleven man game, proved to be the best pass-receiver of the game. Delt's Dick Learmouth and the Sigma Chi's Bill Norris were the outstanding players of the game.
In the six man league the Blanks scored a 19-13 triumph over Battenfeld. Frank Stannard scored 12 points for the Blanks. For Battenfield Warren Lowen and C. A. Gilmore scored touchdowns. Rock Chalk Co-op worked a 13-7 win out of Jayhawk Co-op. Orville Kretzmeier tallied 7 points.

ALL-TIME ALL-AMERICANS
Last fall marked the fiftieth year of All-American selections since Walter Camp picked his first all-star in 1889 until 50 years later Grantland Rice, Camp's successor, chose the 1940 All-American team. It's always been an interesting pastime for sports writers to list their all-time choices and there is absolutely no way to judge which eleven named is really the strongest or which individual performers are the standout men.
Here is Grantland Rice's Eternal All-American based on the past fifty years of football:
1890-1930
Center-Schulz, Michigan ('07).
Guards—Cannon, Notre Dame ('29) and Heffelfinger, Yale ('91). Tackles—Henry, W. & -. ('19) and Fincher, Georgia Tech ('20). Ends—Muller, California ('21) and Fesler, Ohio State ('28). Quarterback—Grange, Illinois ('25).
Halfbacks—Thorpe, Carlisle (12) and Strong, N. Y. U. (28),
Fullback—Nevers, Stanford (25).
Fullback—Nevers, Stanford ('25).
Grantland Rice has seen the best come and go for twenty years and you can bet your bottom dollar that his choices are about tops. There probably isn't a man in the United States today that has seen as many superb football stars as Rice has witnessed in action. Rice himself stated that it was hard to leave George Gipp of Notre Dame fame, Harvard's immortal Eddie Mahan, Willie Heston of Michigan, little Walter Eckersall of Chicago, and Army's finest—Elmer Oliphant, out of any all-time backfield but in drawing the line, he thought Thorpe, Grange, Nevers, and Strong would be the finest quartet.
A MODERN ALL-STAR ELEVEN
As none of Rice's premier team were playing in the era of modern football which might be set off as 1930 to the present day, it makes interesting data to compare the best men of the modern gridiron game to those of Rice's period, ('07-29).
This corner never had the pleasure of witnessing many All-Americans of the current pigskin age, but having followed the nation's leading footballers for the past ten years, we present a football team (1930-40) that, for the sake of argument, would probably give Grange and Thorpe a whale of a battle.
1930-40 TEAM
Center—Wojciechowicz, Fordham ('36, '37).
Guards—Bevan, Minnesota ('34) and Smith, Southern California ('38, '39).
Tackles—Widseth, Minnesota ('35, '36) and Reynolds, Stanford ('34, '35).
Ends—Hutson, Alabama ('34), and Tinsley, Louisiana State ('35, '36).
Quarterback—Baugh, Texas Christian ('35, '36).
Halfbacks—Frank, Yale ('36, '37) and Harmon, Michigan ('39, '41).
Halfbacks—Frank, Yale ('36, '37) and Harmon, Michigan ('39, '4'). Fullback—Berwanger, Chicago ('24, '35).
If what press clippings unfold to the reading public is half true, no team, even with Grange and Thorpe in the saddle, could run over an outfit containing such stars as Ed Widseth, "Blackjack" Harry Smith, Bill Bevan, and Gaynell Tinsley. It would also take a forward wall of perfection to stop a running attack with Chicago's one-man gang, Jay Berwanger, and Michigan's "Terrible" Tom Harmon leading the way. An aerial offense with "Slinging" Sam Baugh pitching to Don Hutson, of college and professional fame, would alone be worth the price of admission
No one is trying to short change the former grid greats or endeavoring to dim the luster of their fame, but it seems silly to believe that Grange, Thorpe, Gipp, or Nevers should always be rated higher than Berwanger or Harmon. For that matter, "Dutch" Clark and Bronko Nagurski could make any ball club, not to mention Frank Albert, Stanford's present quarterbacking genius. There they are—modern football's finest—they can hold their own against any conflicting selection.

Kansas State Fullback Lyle Wilkins Injured
Kansas State's hopes for a victory over the Jayhawks received a severe jolt yesterday when it was announced that Lyle Wilkins, outstanding Wildcat fullback, would not be able to play in tomorrow's battle here. Wilkins received a leg injury in the South Carolina game and failed to respond to treatment. Although he may not see action, Wilkins will probably be in uniform, Coach Hobbs Adams asserted.
Earl Williams, who has spent several days in the student hospital for treatment of a leg injury, will be in the game against the Jayhawkers. Williams, an outstanding kicker, was moved into the right halfback position and Kent Duwe will be at fullback as game captain.
Coach Don Faurot polished off his Missouri Tigers yesterday in a final preparation for Oklahoma and reported that the starting line-up is intact and every man on the squad will be ready for duty. Faurot and his gridders went into hiding in an unannounced destination

Women's Intramurals By Nancy Prather
--this afternoon, making way for the Sooners who limbered up on the Memorial stadium field today.
The finals in the class volley ball games were played last night with the juniors defeating the seniors 33-20 and the sophomores winning from the freshmen 30-24. The juniors are the hill class champions with the seniors in second place.
Miss Hoover announced today that the intramural blanks for basketball, aerial darts, and ping pong doubles would be ready for the managers on Monday, November 18. The managers must return the blanks to the intramural office on November 21. Basketball games will begin after Thanksgiving. If the managers have not signed up for practice periods they should do so immediately. Miss Hoover urged that all tennis matches be played as soon as possible while the weather is good.
Kansas Citian Speaks To Pharmacy Students
"Production" was the subject of a talk by Jack Schopflin, of the George A. Breaan company of Kansas City, Mo., this morning before the students of the School of Pharmacy.
After resting Wednesday, Bob Steuber, No. 1 right halfback, was back in his regular position in practice yesterday. Steuber has been nursing a bruised chest. Bob Brenton, regular tackle, was the most uncertain of the starting eleven, but also worked out with the squad yesterday in the No. 3 lineup. Brenton isn't injured but has been held down by rheumatism for several weeks.
