Formation of a Jayhawk Knothole Club was announced today by Gwinn Henry, director of athletics at the University of Kansas.
The club will be sponsored by K.U. members of Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, in cooperation with the Kaw Council of the Boy Scouts of America.
Any boy or girl student enrolled in good standing in an elementary school or high school of this area is automatically a member. Members will be admitted to University of Kansas football games for 25 cents a game, including tax.

Old style square dances have been announced by Miss Ruth Hoover and Miss Joie Stapleton, assistant professors of physical education, as the feature attraction for 8:00 Friday night in Robinson gymnastium.
The Knothole Club members are asked to report to the Knothole gate at the northwest corner of the stadium. The plan will go into effect for Saturday's game between Kansas and Iowa State. It also will include the other two home games of the 1941 season, Kansas State, Nov. 15 and Missouri, Nov. 22. For all games, the gates open at 12:30

Seek Big Six Victory
Varsity Drills On Basic Play
Coach Gwinn Henry, yesterday afternoon ran his varsity squad through a light workout, striving to give the squad time to loosen up stiff muscles and bruises suffered in the Marquette game.
A slight shoulder injury, received Saturday night in the Marquette game, put Ralph Miller, stellar quarterback and main cog of the K.U. backfield on the shelf. At the present time Ralph is taking heat treatments and should be ready to go against Iowa State this Saturday. Bob Githens, center is also on the injured list, having a sprained knee. Paul Hardman will probably be shifted to the pivot position to replace Githens.
Gene Long, 204 pound tackle was on the sidelines yesterday as the result of an injured hip received Saturday night, but will be out for practice tomorrow.
Coach Henry emphasized running plays mixed with short passes in dummy practice. Henry also stated that the squad will spend more time on fundamentals, blocking and tackling in this week's practice, in preparation for the game with Iowa State.
Phi Psi Sextets
Romp To Easy Wins
Saturday morning three six-man team battles took place with the Kappa Sig's, Phi Psi "B" and "C" emerging as victors over the Phi Delt's, Delta Tau's, and Sig Alph's. The Phi Psi "B" team went on a high scoring spree, trouncing the Delta Tau's 30-0 with John Krum and Jim Brown tallying two six-pointers apiece.
The Kappa Sig's rolled up a 38-0 triumph over Sig Alph's "B". Jack Heisler gathered 31 of his team's points. Bob Barton passed to Paul Carpenter to give Phi Psi "C" a 7-0 win over Phi Delt "B" in a surprise upset.
Tackles Exhibit Better Defense At Milwalkee
With the Marquette, Temple, and Nebraska games past history, the Kansas Jayhawkers look to their Big Six rivals with eager, hungry eyes. Iowa State will find a tough, experienced band of scrappers facing them, when they invade Memorial Stadium this coming Saturday.
Particularly did the play of the K.U. tackles please the coaches. The weak spot in the Jayhawk line previously, the tackles came through with their best work of the season.
Steve Meade, 229 pound senior, has definitely won the starting berth at left tackle over Jack Tenenbaum, sophomore, who has been handicapped by illness. Meade was a member of the squad last year, but did not play enough to letter.
At right tackle, Gene Long, Indian, sophomore, is the starter, with
Warren Hodges, another sophomore, backing him up. Hodges, a standout on the freshman team last year finally began to display some of the prowess expected of him, in the game with
GENE LONG
Marquette. The coaches are hopeful that now he has hit his stride.
Although Marquette beat Kansas by a 33-7 score, almost all of the damage was done as passes, rather than on running plays. Whenever the Hilltoppers got into scoring territory, they went into the air.
It will be a battered team of Jayhawks that goes up against Iowa State. Three lettermen, Monte Merkel, guard; Ralph Schaake, end; and Don Pollom, guard, were unable to make the Marquette trip because of injuries. Whether or not they (continued on page five)

Miller Still 'Hot'
★★★
Despite an arm injury, and absorbing beating at the hands of the Marquette linemen, and rain (wet ball, etc.), Ralph Miller continued to keep his passing record over 500. The arm injury Ralph received at Milwaukee may hamper his aerial efforts against Iowa State this Saturday.
RALPH MILLER
Miller passed 9 times against the Hilltoppers, completing 3 for 47 yards. This brings Miller's total yardage for the season to 301, and complements to 29 in 56 attempts for a four game percentage of 518.

A GLANCE AT THE FOOTBALL WORLD
The fourth weekend of collegiate football passed in review with the usual number of upsets and surprise showings. Unbeaten, untied gridiron machines are becoming fewer and farther apart. Many of these undefeated outfits may have their records soiled this coming weekend.
Minnesota and Michigan, each bearing an unblemished record, will tangle for the little brown jug at Ann Arbor. Ohio State risks its standing against Northwestern. Texas will be seriously tested by an in-and-out Rice eleven which was good enough to nose out Tulane two weeks ago.
Georgia clashes with Alabama in the South's most important battle. Harvard will try Navy, Army must be traveling high, wide, and handsome to whip Columbia, Fordham will get more than a workout from Texas Christian, and Illinois figures to give Leahy's question mark Notre Dame team an energetic tussle. The winner of the Missouri-Nebraska contest at Columbia will be in direct line for the Big Six title.
Gwinn Henry's Jayhawkers are about due to win, and this weekend's foe, Iowa State, looms as a prospective victim. In the Cyclones, Kansas will meet a fine, experienced team but one which is lacking in reserve strength which, at present, is the chief cause for the recent Jayhawk defeats at the hands of Nebraska and Marquette.
KANSAS AND IOWA STATE
Bob Githens, first string center, was hurt at Milwaukee and Paul Hardman, regular right end, will take over the pivot duties. Bob Hagen, Hardman's replacement on the right flank, performed well at Marquee and will, in all probability, open against the Cyclones. Steve Meade, senior tackle, stood out in the Hilltopper game Saturday night and should continue to improve. Mark down a Kansas victory over Iowa State this coming Saturday.
NOTES ON THE MICHIGAN-NORTHWESTERN THRILLER
It was a real treat to see so many great football players Saturday at Evanson. Michigan was the better ball team, although Northwestern, with a couple of breaks at the right moments, could have won or at least tied the Wolverines. Both teams were in perfect condition, with a turned ankle the only injury of the game.
In Tom Kuzma and Bob Westfall, Michigan has a pair of ball tooters who could play for any team. Westfall is a compact chunk of human dynamite, running like a wild locomotive. . . . Kuzma, Tom Harmon's successor in the tailback spot, was a brilliant passer and kicker. Standing on the Michigan 35, he once punted the ball out of bounds on the Northwestern three-yard line. . . . Rogers, Ingalls, Kelto, and Wistert were Wolverine line stars. Joe Rogers was as good an all-round end as this corner has ever seen, not excepting Waddy Young or Frank Ivy, former Oklahoma greats. . . .
One could see that Crisler and Waldorf had taught their respective charges perfect fundamentals. Shoe-top tackling, sweeping blocks, and split-second timing, in the line and backfield alike, was prevalent.
In Alf Bauman, All-American tackle in '40, Waldorf's Wildcats had the best lineman on the field. Bauman played his position in an unorthodox manner, rushing straight up, and tackling high. However it was effective, as he was in on nearly every play. . . Bill DeCorrevont, Northwestern's highly publicized halfback, was big and very fast, but not as shifty as his understudy, Don Graham. Graham is a future All-American prospect, a high class triple-threat star. . .
The game was colorful from start to finish, including a swell halftime program put on by the Northwestern and Michigan bands. However, neither of these Big Ten musical units had anything on the Kansas band. Nor did their female coeds eclipse the Sunflower beauties of Lawrence, although one must admit that they were much easier on the eyes than the Nebraska fairer sex of a week ago. All in all, it was an enjoyable weekend.
