Practice Finds Niblo and Evans Passing Capably
The varsity eleven worked out yesterday afternoon in a long practice which was devoted to passing offense and defense. The tossing duty vacated by Ralph Miller, who is laid up as a result of an injury received in the Marquette game, was left in the hands of Ray Evans, Ray Niblo, and "Curly" Hayden during yesterday's practice session. It is believed that Miller will be able to see action against Iowa State this weekend.
Gene Long, tackle, who was taking it easy earlier in the week because of an injured hip, was back in the lineup. Bob Githens, first-string center, was still unable to work out because of his injured knee.
The squad is receiving more calisthenics and conditioning exercises this week in order to be in the best of condition for next Saturday's contest. Vic Hurt, line coach, stated that the team was in better condition at Marquette than in previous contests, and added that, if the improvement continues, chances for a win over Iowa State would be pretty good.
Injured Intramural Man Is Improving
Dale Ewing, college sophomore, is being treated at Watkins Memorial hospital for a broken collar bone. He received the injury yesterday afternoon in intramural play.
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of University health service, states that his condition is good.
Aerial Battle In Big Six Game With Cyclones
Saturday's game between Kansas and Iowa State should be one of the fanciest passing battles of the 1941 football season. Both the Jayhawkers and the Cyclones rely upon the air as their main weapon of scoring touchdowns.
Kansas, having a fierce aerial attack, follows naturally from the return to action of Ralph Miller, one of the nation's top passers. On the sidelines last year to allow a weak knee to strengthen, "Rifling Ralph" is back, playing the best ball of his career.
A wrenched arm which Miller received in last week's game with Marquette may still be sore enough Saturday to bother the Kansas star's passing. However, this should not have a very appreciable effect on the Jayhawk aerial game, as it will merely give K.U.'s other fine passers a chance to display their talents.
Harlan Altman, first replacement for Miller, had a hand in Kansas' lone
MARVIN VANDAVEER RAY EVANS
Earlier in the season, against Washington, Ray Niblo, sophomore halfback, completed three passes in three attempts, with two of the tosses going for touchdowns.
Add to this the passing of Ray Evans, First string left halfback, and Marvin Vandaveer, senior letterman, and you have an impressive aerial attack, even when Miller is not at his best.
Iowa State, a team which has always been partial to throwing the ball around, has a pair of top-notch passers in Royal Lohry, junior quarterback, and Howard Tippee, blond sophomore.

He Snags 'Em Short--tallied two of his team's three 6-pointers and ran for two more scores only to have them called back on penalties. Harold Dumler, Kappa Sig, intercepted a Teke pass for the other touchdown. John Motley and Bob Cohlmeyer were the ablest Teke defensive players.

Hensley Paces K-Sig's; Jenkins Leads Phi Delt's
BEAT IOWA STATE Attend the radio rally and the nightshirt parade Friday night.
In the six-man football league, with the McKale brothers, Clyde and Vernon leading the way, Kappa Eta Kappa humiliated the Acacia's 31-0. Clyde ran up a total of 24 points while brother Vernon picked up the remaining 7. George Bolt's passing stood out for the K.E.K. sextet while Fred Stubeck starred for the Acacia's in defeat.
Playing on fields of mud and slush due to unrelenting rain of the past weeks, Phi Delta Theta and Kappa Sigma registered impressive triumphs in yesterday's intramural touch-football contests. The Phi Delt's trounced Carruth hall 19-0 while the Kappa Sig's walked over the Teke's 19-2.
Leading the Phi Delt's to victory, was John Jenkins. Jenkins starred on defense and passed to Warren Newcomer for the first Phi Delta score. The Corder-Doores aerial combination of Carruth kept the Phi Delt's in hot water until late in the third quarter when Bob Patterson tossed a scoring heave to "Ribbie" Woodbury, cinching the game. The third Phi Delt touchdown was on a basketball flip from Newcomer to Byron Kern.
Pacing the Kappa Sigs to their wellearned win was Larry Hensley, all-star fullback two years ago. Hensley
Battenfeld hall, with Warren Lowen chalking up all the points, turned back Jayhawk Co-op 19-9. Fields and Clawson performed well for the Coop but Battenfeld5s Lowen was too much for them.
Johnson Scores Again
Many of Kansas' students are now using their education to advantage in serving their country as integral parts in the United States Army. A prize example is one of the former campus big shots who was visiting here this weekend on furlough from Camp Robinson, Arkansas—Sgt. Harold Johnson of Osage City and Dr. Belel's intramural office.
Known as "Lamplighter" or "53-point Johnson" by his college mates, Harold went into the army ten months ago as a private and is now
drawing down $126 a month as a master sergeant. Johnson capitalized on his business school degree to become a company clerk, and as a result, has advanced quickly.
Johnson was famed as an intramural basketball scorer in his undergraduate days. A sure letterman on "Phog" Allen's varsity squad his sophomore year. Johnson caught the flu and couldn't finish the season. The next two years "Lamplighter" devoted his 6 ft. 5 in. frame to stacking up points for Alpha Kappa Psi.
career was when he rang up 24 goals and 5 free throws for an individual scoring record of 53 points in one intramural game. Harold averaged better than 18 points a game for the season and was rewarded for his efforts by being chosen captain of the intramural all-star team.
Highlight of Johnson's basketball
Among Johnson's school activities were Owl Society and Sachem, junior and senior men's honor societies, Men's Student Council Representative, and assistant to Dr. Elbel in the intramural office for three years.
