SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1940 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS 1. PAGE FIVI Kansas Cagers Use New Backboard Basketball's new era at the University of Kansas took shape last week when the Jayhawker cage squad under Dr. F. . Allen started flipping the leather spheroid at the new, convex, all-steel, fan-shaped backboards. "It will probably take several practices, possibly even two weeks, before the boys feel at home with the new backboards, "Phog" said. But I'm sure the new boards will be a big improvement and everyone will like them, especially the fans." Upon the installation of the backboards yesterday, practice changed form slightly in order to allow the players more chance to accustom themselves to the boards. Out-of-bounds plays will be co-featured with the new boards in this week's practice sessions as Allen drills his team toward game smoothness. Allen also announced yesterday that arrangements have been completed for the University of Kansas basketball squad to stay at the Hotel Piccadilly, 227 West 45th, when the Jayhawks go to New York for a game with the Fordham Rams in Madison Square Garden, Dec. 28. In Philadelphia, where the Kansas team will meet Temple University's Owls, Dec. 30, Allen and his cagers will stay at the Hotel Philadelphia. Phi Psi, Boy' Co-op Phi Gam, Newman Sig Ep, Are Victors In the season's most exciting intramural football games Friday afternoon, Phi Gamma Delta nosed out Alpha Tau Omega 7 to 6, Phi Kappa Psi defeated Tau Kappa Epsilon 12 to 6, and the Boy's Co-op won from Alpha Chi Sigma 6 to 0. The six-man contests were equally thrilling. Sig Alph "B" triumphed over Sigma Nu "B" 13 to 6, while the Comets downed the Jayhawk Co-op 15 to 14. Newman Club and Sigma Phi Epsilon rang up their first victories of the current intramural football season Thursday afternoon. Newman Club knocked off Pi Kappa Alpha, winner over Delta Chi, last week 6 to 0. The Sig Ep's upset the heretofore unbeaten Phi Delta Theta eleven 7 to 0. Star of the Newman club's triumph was Joe Fournier who passed to teammate Goleb for the winning margin. The Pi K. A.'s threatened several times but didn't seem to have the necessary scoring punch. Outplayed from the opening kickoff until the closing minute, the Phi Delt's muffed four scoring chances as Cooper, Kresie, and company proceeded to annihilate the boys in blue. A punt runback of 30 yards by Bob Cooper put the Sig Ep's in position to score. Two plays later Cooper snagged one of Snaveley's tosses for a touchdown. Cheatham, McGee, and Hunter were standouts for the losers while Martin, Kresie, and Cooper shined for the Sig Ep's. Phi Psi "C" won over Boy's Co-op 6 to 0 while Phi Gam "B" battled to a 6-6 tie with Phi Delt "C", Entemology Club To Hear Beamer The Entomology club will meet at 4:30 Monday afternoon in Snow hall to hear Dr. R. H. Beamer of the department of geology lecture on his insect-collecting trip in the south-west last summer. Nebraska Powerhouse--on tuition to K.U. students Harry "Hippity" Hopp, versatile Nebraska left halfback, who personally accounted for one of the Huskers' eight touchdowns against Kansas yesterday and aided materially in the scoring of several others.
