Phi Gams Easily Trouce Tekes in Feature Game
The Phi Gams lived up to preseason expectations by easily defeating the Tekes, 21-7, in Friday's feature game.
John Conley gave a beautiful passing exhibition, completing over two thirds of his attempted tosses. In the line, left-guard Healy constantly broke up Teke plays, and Phillips and Olson, Phi Gam ends, were on the receiving end of most of the ground-gaining passes.
Fiiis Threaten Early
The Phi Gams pushed to the four yard line in the opening minutes of the game only to lose the ball on downs. Surging back in the second quarter they set the Tekes back to their own 14 yard line where Reider, Fiji center, broke through and recovered a blocked Teke punt on the six inch line. Conley tossed a short pass to Olson for the touchdown; and Jim Staker, right-half, booted the ball through the uprights for the extra point just as the half ended.
The Phi Gams threatened again soon after the second half kick-off. Two quick first downs took the ball to the mid-field stripe where a beautiful 35 yard pass from Conley
to Phillips was good for another six points. Staker again booted the extra point, making the score read 14-0.
A 15 yard penalty called on the Tekes for holding set up the third Phi Gam touchdown, where from the two yard line Staker went over on a straight line plunge. He converted the extra point for his third successful boot of the afternoon. Tekes Score in Fourth
The fourth quarter saw the Tekes threaten and score for their only tally in the game. Jack Bryan, Teke left-half, intercepted a pass on the Fiji 30 yard line and skirted the west side of the field for a touchdown. Brumback made the conversion which ended the day's scoring at 21-7.
Six-Man Games
In the six-man division, the Sigma Chis defeated the Sig Eps on a third quarter interception by Sigma Chi halfback Jack Wilson, who raced 40 yards for a touchdown. The attempted place-kick was wide, leaving the final score 6-0.
In the only other game of the afternoon the Jayhawks and the Blanks battled to a scoreless tie.
"Phog" Boosts Big 'Mural Program
Now that intramurals are coming into prominence more than ever before, Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen recalls a plan to increase participation in intramurals which he advocated just prior to the financial crash of '29.
For example, intramural football teams could check out football equipment for their contests, or tennis players could check out rackets
Under the plan, each school would maintain a storehouse of athletic equipment, to be checked out to the students whenever they wanted to use it in intramural contests.
of good quality whenever an intramural match was scheduled. This would not only contribute to safety but also would encourage students to participate in a greater number of sports by eliminating an outlay for equipment.
The expense would be met by a laboratory fee, paid at the time of enrollment. Under the plan a six-dollar athletic fee for gymnasium and intramural equipment would cover a full year of supervised competitive intramural play at a cost less than the estimated cost of a gymnasium outfit for the year, Dr. Allen pointed out.
Kansans Lack Drive; Defense Is Tight
The vaunted aerial circus of the University of Kansas went down to defeat yesterday 32-0 in a game characterized by penalties and poor line play.
Kansans Lack Drive
A lack of a sustained drive on the part of the Jayhawkers was evident throughout the game. In the first period Kansas recovered a Nebraska fumble only to be held tight as Blue, Nebraska line backer, streaked through the offensive line to throw Ralph Miller for a six yard loss.
Jayhawker's Defense Tight
The second quarter saw Kansas hold the Cornhuskers in the shadow of the goalposts. Nebraska drove to the seven yard line for a first goal to go, but the Kansas line held for four successive downs in the best defense work of the afternoon. Fluker, left guard, finally knifed through and stopped the ballcarrier on the two-yard line, where Kansas took over and punted out of danger.
Ralph Miller played a beautiful game, tossing passes from every part of the field. Ulrich, left end, and Evans, playing left half, were on the receiving end of most of his passes.
Kansas, playing off a short punt and modified double wingback formation, was unable to make any consistent gains through the Cornhusker's line. The entire Jayhawk offense was built around the passing attack of Miller, and when he was removed from the game in the third period as a result of an injury Kansas was noticeably weakened.
Nebraska, using the T formation, had power to spare with three complete squads seeing action. The closing minutes of the game found them still threatening, when the third string squad pushed from the Kansas 26 to the 1 inch line in three downs. The gun went off ending the game before another play could be called.

A GLANCE AT BASKETBALL
Guest Conductor, Bill Porter
Although the grid season is barely under way, it is never too early for a few comments on the basketball schedule. The Big Six teams are familiar enough to University of Kansas fans, but the current schedule reveals a number of interesting-looking non-conference contests.
The Jayhawkers will open their season Dec. 17 in a home game with Denver University, which appears on the schedule for the first time. Denver is one of the strongest municipal schools in this part of the country, and the opener will be no breeze for the Kansans. The following night "Phog" Allen will take his team to Newton for the opening of a new gym at Bethel College. This is according to the policy of the University to take its teams to other colleges in the state to promote good will. The University of Wichita also appears on the schedule Feb. 2.
Other non-conference games are the slated contest with DePaul University, which is to be played in Chicago Jan. 31, and games with Creighton and Oklahoma A & M, last year's two top-rankers in the fast Missouri Valley conference. With one or two exceptions the non-conference games this season will be as tough as the Big Six contests. There are no "breathers" between conference games, so the Crimson and Blue will have to click from the beginning if they want to match their impressive record of former years.
BRAINS AND BRAWN AGAIN
The recent publication of the grade averages of various organizations over the hill brings to mind again the old question of athletes and their grades.
Varsity athletes are prominent on any campus, and like other prominent persons, anything that happens to them is discussed widely by the student body and often appears in the school paper. When one of the varsity eleven receives a scratch in practice, the fact is brought to the attention of everybody; but when some studious Joe College cuts his finger while slicing a lemon for his tea, no one hears about it but his roommate.
When an athlete fails to remain eligible for competitive play, because of low grades, this fact gains wide publicity. But anyone can name a dozen other students who have "flunked" in a subject or two.
In a poll conducted by "Phog" Allen a few years ago, it was found that only 1240 of the 2700 men students in the University would be eligible for inter-collegiate competition. This indicates that the varsity athlete is in the upper half of his class, scholastically speaking, even though he must spend two or three hours a day practicing his sport.
Maybe the old conception of "a sound mind in a sound body" still holds true.
