Miller's Record Best For Kansas
With the current season half-way finished, Kansas ace Kasser, 'Rifling' Ralph Miller, has about cinched the distinction of being the greatest passer in Jayhawker grid history. In two and a half seasons to date, Miller has attempted 143 tosses, completed 75 for a total yardage of 967. His 1941 record, which is included in this total, is 56 attempted, 29 completed for 301 matches. This is more note $ ^{a}$
yards. This is even more worthy when one considers that the Washington and Marquette contests were played in rain and mud.
Miller also excels in ball carrying and kicking. Against Texas as a sophomore, Ralph intercepted a Longhorn pass and threaded his way 90 yards to pay dirt in what proved to be the deciding scoring margin in a 19-18 Jayhawker victory.
In the opening home game this fall with Washington, Miller snagged a short pass from Ray Niblo, and scampered 47 yards for a touchdown. As a punter, Miller has been about the conference's best this season, with an average of close to 40 yards per kick from scrimmage.
Conference Championship At Stake In Columbia
In Miller's three years of play at Chanute high school, the Blue Comets lost only two games, these by scores of 14-13 and 14-0. However, Ralph has been continually hampered in college by a 'bad' knee which he incurred in the fifth contest of his sophomore year.
It was, however, in high school basketball at Chanute, that Miller shone brightest. 'Rifling' Ralph averaged better than 19 points a game for three years of play. Here in Lawrence performing for Dr. Allen's cage teams of '38 and '39 on a trick knee, Miller has done quite well. In '39 Miller was second high scorer in the Big Six with an average of 11.6 points per game. He was selected on the all-Big Six all-star team at forward. Highlights of the '39 season were reached against Loyola, Nebraska, and Iowa State, when Ralph tallied 24, 20, and 19 points respectively. Fans are hoping that he will be able to play his senior year of basketball on two good legs.
Rain again ept Coach Don Fau-rot and his Missouri Tigers indoors yesterday as the last rough drill of the week was completed. A light pregame drill was scheduled for today with tomorrow a day of rest.
Maurice Wade, Vernon Bowen, and Lee Milla, all backfield men, were still unable to carry on the heavy duties in practice yesterday but Coach Faurot believes they will be ready for action against the Huskers Saturday. Coach Faurot moved Wade and Harold Adams, starting blocking back, to the No. 2 team replacing them with Joe Flavin and Erwin Pitts, respectively.
MARVIN ATHEY
Scrimmaging until sun-down the Nebraska squad worked hard yesterday in effort to acquaint itself with Missouri's "T" formation. Major Biff Jones revealed that only two sophomores would start against the Tigers Saturday — Quarterback Marvin Athey and Howard Martiga, tackle.
Coach Faurot abandoned hope of using Ray Chase, fullback; Ed Sweeney, guard; and Dick Keller, halfback, all of whom are injured.
The squad practiced in Lincoln again today before leaving for Columbia late tonight. Tomorrow will find the Huskers working out on the Columbia field.
1. Herb Von Goetz is still in the hospital with a collapsed lung and probably will not play for another two
weeks yet. V on Goetz received the injury in the Indiana game last Saturday.
It is still doubtful whether Roy Eason and Harold Teeter, first string tackles will see action in the Ok-
MOWARD TEETER lahoma Sooner lineup against Santa Clara Saturday. The two No. 1 tackles were injured by the hard hitting Texas Longhorns. Plato Andros, second string tackle, nearly lost an ear in the Kansas State game when he crashed into Mike Zeleznak without a helmet, and it is doubtful that he will play in the Santa Clara game.
WOMEN'S INTRAMURALS---
(continued from page four) Phi by a score of 42-22. The game was fairly even in the first half with Corbin leading 16-11. Game standouts were Jill Peck and Mary McCroskey for the Pi Phi's and Alta Bingham and Marjorie Henry for Corbin hall.
Enrolled at Tulane university is a descendant of Paul Tulane, after whom the institution was named. He is Louis Tulane Bass, Ogden, Utah.
Ray Evans Replaces Miller on Kansas Firing Line
The Kansas varsity, striving to break into the win column Saturday against the Iowa State Cyclones, got a taste of the tricky Iowa State formations in last night's practice.
Coach Gwinn Henry held the longest scrimmage of the season in a workout lasting until dark. The varsity squad, working from Henry's "spinner wing", ran through the freshman team at will, smashing to the secondary defenses on all plays.
Kansas will be near full strength for the Iowa State game, it appears tonight. Vic Hurt, line coach, says that the squad is rounding into good shape, and both Miller and Pollom probably will see action Saturday.
The eleven working out yesterday as the probable Saturday starting line-up was as follows: "Hub" Ulrich and Bob Hagen, ends; Steve Meade and Gene Long, tackles; Bob Fluker and Jay Kern, guards; Paul Hardman, center; with Harlan Altman, Ray Evans, Ray Niblo, and

Don Ettinger, working up the backfield.
Monte Merkel, guard, and Ralph Schaake, end, lettermen unable to make the trip to Marquette because of injuries, have recovered fully and showed up well in yesterday's practice.
In the backfield Ray Evans, playing in the tailback position on pass plays, consistently connected with his receivers for long gains. Niblo and Altman alternated on the passing assignments with Evans, and yesterday's emphasis on long passes and more running plays promised spectacular football for Saturday.
School of Business Backs 'Navy Blues' Showing at Granada
The School of Business announces that it is sponsoring the motion picture, "Navy Blues," which started yesterday at the Granada theater, and will run through Saturday. The project is under the direction of Elden Beeber, president of the School of Business.
Salesmen have been appointed in all the organized houses to sell tickets for the production. In addition, several students have been appointed to handle ticket sales among the independents.
