NUMBER 20
Bartlett, Ketchum Win Kansan Trips
In a whirlwind finish Miriam Bartlett of Pi Beta Phi and independent Kenneth Ketchum won the free trips in the Kansas's Holiday Excursion Contest.
Miriam Bartlett won by only 3,000 votes over Gamma Phi's Shirley Henry. Ketchum nosed out Phi Delta Theta's Ray Evans by a similar amount.
The contest was 336,929 votes short of the expected 600,000 and consequently the second place candidates will not make the trips to Miami and the Sugar Bowl game.
The two winners will travel to the Rose Bowl football game and to Sun Valley during Christmas vacation at the expense of the University Daily Kansan.
Henry Skorga, waiter in the Memorial Union fountain, ended the contest in third place after leading during the early days of the competition.
Muriel Henry, the only candidate entered by a school of the University, ended in third place for the School of Pharmacy.
Kappa Kappa Gamma's Mary Beth Dodge finished in fourth place after her brilliant rise to second place in yesterday's balloting. In fourth place for the men was Kenneth Nicolay of Delta Tau Delta.
The two I.S.A. candidates finished in fifth and sixth place. Eldon Beebe in fifth place, and Georgia Mae Landrith in sixth place.
Ahead of Landrith was Independent Ruth Kelley, and following Beebe was Joe Brown of Sigma Nu.
Votes cast during the contest totaled 265,801-131,174 for the women and 132,627 for the men. The
Three Rallies Send Team North
In three rallies in the last 24 hours the student body showed its loyal support of the Jayhawker eleven's invasion of the Cornhusker land tomorrow afternoon at Lincoln. Nearly 200 students gathered at the southeast corner of Memorial stadium at 1 o'clock this afternoon to give the team a good sendoff. Yells, songs, and a snake dance were followed by a short talk by Coach

Bartlett to Ketchum It's No Double Play
Well, Ketchum almost did catch'im a trip to Ketchum. Time, fate, and votes told the story but the prizes were wrong.
(continued to page eight)
Oustanding and public coincidence number one for the year nearly occurred when Kenneth Ketchum, Independent candidate, won the Kansas contest that will take him — not to Ketchum, Idaho—but to Pasadena for the Rose Bowl game. Ketchum, Idaho, by the way, is the railroad town, two miles from Sun Valley, where visitors must Not disembark.
Not so long ago, Ketchum (the town) was a rip-roarin and wide-open mining center. Its citizens were amazed on Christmas day in 1936 when a train load of vacationists pulled in for an outing in the five (continued to page eight)
Instead, Miriam Bartlett, Pi Beta Phi's winning candidate, will journey to Ketchum to see what connection Ketchum in Idaho has to Ketchum in Kansas.
Science in Spot Again Tonight
Jane Peake, college sophomore, will appear tonight as guest and subject of the television broadcast of the Previews of Progress in Hoch auditorium. Miss Barbara Batchelor, college junior, appeared as last night's guest. Otherwise, it's the same show and will begin at 8 o'clock.
If you missed this show last night, don't pass it up tonight. It's an hour and a half of the biggest surprises that General Motors and RCA laboratories have been able to devise. The television broadcast—and this may be your last chance to see one for a long time—will again originate outside Hoch and will be received upon the stage, visible to all the audience. Synthetic goods and plastic gadgets of all kinds are on display and will be used throughout the program. And there's the spectacle of a tiny, match-sized lamp dazzling forth 196,000 candlepower of synthetic sunlight.
Remember—it's free!

GEORGE ABEL
Ames. Captaining the Huskers in battle will be George Abe l, 200-pound All-American candidate, a starter at right guard. The Nebraska team will be led by the formidable backfield combination of big Marvin Athey at
quarter, speedster Allan Zikmund and elusive Dale Bradley at halfback positions, and pile-driving Vike Francis at fullback.
Three Sophomores Start
Against this famed quartet, Coach Gwinn Henry will throw his passing ace, 'Rifling' Ralph Miller, and his trio of sophomores, Ray Evans, Ray Niblo, and Don Ettinger.
The two respective lines average about 196 pounds, so Nebraska will have the edge here only in reserve strength. The Huskers have three rangy pass-grabbing ends in Fred Preston, all-star in '40, and either Gerald Kathol or Bob Ludwick. The

All aboard for Lincoln!
At noon today 65 Hill women were packing weekend bags preparatory to adding a bit of local color to tomorrow's game at Nebraska. The office of Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser of women, expected a number of additional requests for permission to go to the game before tonight's $^{\circ}$
to the game before tonight's deadline.
All men and women going to Nebraska will be part of a large rally to be held at the Union Pacific station in Lincoln at 11:30 a.m. tomorrow. Those students who arrive in Lincoln before the special train will meet it at the station, where the noise will begin.
More than 300 sons of the Jay-
hawk will rise at dawn tomorrow in time to grab a seat as the train leaves at 6:30 a.m. The trip home will start at 6 p.m. tomorrow and arrive in Lawrence at 11 p.m.
Cost of the trip will be $4.20 plus an ever-present tax of 21 cents, making the grand total $4.41. Since the train will not carry a dining car, box lunches are recommended.
