Women's Intramurals
By JEAN MILAM
Fifteen University women's basketball teams, including eight sorority teams, three organized house teams and four independent groups, will contend for the all - school championship.
The tournament begins tonight at ing Corbin hall and the Kappas meeting the A.D. Pi's, will, by all indications, be a battle to the finish between the Kappas and Pi Phis in the sorosity group, the IWWs and the ETCs in the independent league with Corbin hall all-powerful among the organized houses.
Last year the Pi Phis defeated the Kappas in a photo finish for the championship of the sororities, only to be defeated by Corbin hall. The Corbin hall team, led by Lenore Grizzell and Alta Bingham, then defeated the TNTs, independent winners, to claim the all-school basketball title.
The Kappas, unlike the Pi Phis, lost very few of their outstanding players through graduations; the TNTs strength was depleted by the graduation of Gerry Ulm, star forward; while Corbin hall has remained practically the same.
Two independent teams may appear as the proverbial dark horses this year. One, the ETCs, led by Miss Ruth Hoover, instructor in physical education, and composed of teachers and graduate students. The other team, the IWWs, has copped the all-school softball and volleyball championships for the past two years, and led by Evelyn Herriman, Wanda Horosco and Marjorie Rader should give their opponents a lot of trouble.
Our guess is that this year's playoffs will see the Kappas, Corbin hall and the IWWs in action.
All women who wish to attend the W.A.A. hockey and volleyball dinner Thursday evening should make their reservation immediately in the women's athletic office. The dinner, to be held at 6 o'clock in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building is not only open to W.A.A. members, but to all women interested in any form of athletics.
Union to Entertain With Yuletide Party
Nation Meyer, social chairman of the Union Activities commission, announced yesterday that plans are being made for a Christmas party open to all students from 3 o'clock until 5 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 17.
The program will include numbers by the Modern Choir, Men's Glee club, and Corbin hall English dancers. Cider and doughnuts will be served also, Meyer said.
Band For Hop Still Uncertain
No "name" band has been signed to play for the Sophomore Hop as Xet, according to Fred Littooy, dance manager.
Although January 11 has been scheduled as the night, this date is still uncertain. Littooy also announced that there will be no varsity on December 14, the date formerly held by the Hop.
Urges Caution In Extra Play
Dr. F. C. Allen, head basketball coach, today cautioned all University athletes who still have Big Six eligibility against competing in any non-University game, except as an alumnus against his own high school or junior college. Competition in any other game is outlawed by Big Six ruling. Violation forfeits the athlete's conference eligibility.
"Christmas vacation is when violation of this rule is most likely to occur," Dr. Allen explained. "There are always such a number of impromptu basketball games in which a boy is tempted to play that I believe a warning is necessary."
The conference rule also requires that conference athletes obtain permission to play baseball in the summer.
Engleman Speaks At Kappa Sigma Founder's Day Dinner
Howard Engleman, University basketball players was a speaker at the Kappa Sigma Founder's Day dinner, 8 p.m. Sunday at the Hotel Jayhawk in Topeka.

Ream, Missouri Valley referee, will be toastmaster.
Members of Kappa Sigma, besides Engleman, who attended the dinner are Larry Finney, John Yarnell, Bill Murfin, Bob Ballard, Rex Shaw, Germain Morgan, and Carlos Vogeler.
Two University Students Obtain Teaching Jobs

Check Up On Hill Love Life
The next issue of the Sour Owl, which will be out December 19, promises to give readers a chance to check up on the Hill's most prominent love affairs.
Reggie Buxton, editor, guarantees that the "love graph" featured in that issue will settle all doubts on the standings of certain couples. The Owl will also contain the usual variety of articles, jokes and cartoons.
Fifteen men in the medical detachment at Coffeyville were recently transferred and the opportunity for advancement has increased.

Medical Detachment Needs 14 Recruits
Anyone interested should see Majar Oscar S. Anderson or any medical detachment men at the armory.
Show Films After Next Mid-Week
Something new in the Memorial Union ballroom.
At 8:15 o'clock, tomorrow instead of the usual mad rush to try and get a booth in some Hill jelly-joint, Mid-week goers will lbe shown a 16 mm sound picture on how Fred Waring and his band prepare for a radio program.
Also on the program will be two reels of safety films presented by the Kansas State Highway Patrol with L. L. Richardson, patrolman, running the projector. Major Will Zurubucken, assistant superintendent of the State Highway Patrol will speak on safety council work, a field in which he has done much work.
A March of Time film titled "Tobacco Land—U.S.A." also will be shown. The entire program will last an hour.
AS WE SEE IT---
(continued from page four)
terspersed will be the opening conference game against Oklahoma in Norman, Jan. 8.
LAST WINTER when we saw Ray Evans, fine freshman football and basketball prospect, perform on the court for Wyandotte's powerful Bulldogs, runners-up for the 1940 state high school basketball championship, we tabbed him as the second-best h.s. cageman in the state. . Second to the much publicized Gerald Tucker of Winfield, who lately threw the state schools' alumni into consternation by deserting our Aggie friends up the Kaw for Oklahoma. . When Tucker went to the Aggies in early September and Evans enrolled here, many K.U. followers still thought the University had fared only second-best in the deal. . But the score hasn't quite added up that way. . Evans has already turned in a fine football season. He has beenm tabbed by Dr. Allen as one of the best basketball prospects in years. . Add to this a modest approaching that of a Glen Cunningham, a cooperative temperment, and a reasonable amount of earnest scholastic effort, and the only conclusion that can be reached is that K.U. hit the jack-pot in this instance, not the dime row.
