Missouri Tigers Head East To Play N.Y.U. Saturday With Only One Loss
Columbia, Mo., Nov. 6-The University of Missouri Tigers, resting in first place in the Big Six Conference, are gazing longingly toward New York and the meeting
with New York university in Yankee Stadium, Saturday. It was a devastating offensive, featuring "Passin' Paul" Christman in his favorite role, that overwhelming the Nebraskans and left
the New York university scout in an apprehensive frame of mind.
Christman tossed 12 of his precision passes and completed eight for 149 yards and three of the four Tiger touchdowns. The other Mia-
seuri score came after Christman set the stage with a pass to Stillman Rouse on the Cornhusker three yard line.
However, it was the Tiger line, consistently out-charging heavier
foes, which deserves credit for halting the Nebraska powerhouse. Time and again, the Bengal linenen broke through to bottle up the famed Nebraska deep reverses. They also held Herman Rohrig and
HOLDEN LINES By CLAVELLE HOLDEN, Kanson Sports Editor
It is a little early to give out all-conference honors, but we believe an All-Big Six eleven can be picked now that won't vary much from the one that will be announced at the close of the season.
Our mythical team is predominantly Oklahoman, with six Sooners named. Here is a funny case. We named one back that isn't even a first-stringer, Beryl Clark of Oklahoma. Clark is the leading scorer of the league, but the Oklahoma coaches have not given him a starting berth. Here is our tentative all-star team.
Ends—Shirk, Oklahoma, and Scanman, Nebraska. (One of the Orfs from Missouri might edge in before the season is over.)
Tackles—Duggan, Oklahoma, and Weiner, Nebraska. (No question of doubt here.)
Guards—Stevenson, Oklahoma, and E. Schwartzkopf, Ne braska. (Beezley of K-State might win the latter's position.)
Quarterback—Christman, Missouri. (The outstanding back in the conference.)
Halfback—Clark, Oklahoma. (This boy is our best triple threat back.)
Halfback—Rohrig, Nebraska. (The way he returns punts is really something.)
Fullback—Seymour, Oklahoma. (A big rugged boy who tynifies the fullback job.)
Nobraska is second to the Sooner, with three positions. The Tigers only rated one berth, with a chance for one more. If Missouri should upset Oklahoma our all-star team wouldn't look so hot. K-State rated the elevon man, Kansas and Iowa State failed to place a man. We deliberated for sometime on the advisability of placing Milt Sullivan in the backfield. He can do everything well, but the other boys can do it a little better, we decided.
Jayhawk enthusiasm among the grads is being aroused through meetings of the Quarterback Club at which time the coaches show motion pictures of the Kansas grinders in action. The coaches were in Kansas City Monday and last night they attended a basketball game. Topeka will go among alumni will mean a lot in securing football talent for the University.
It seems definitely decided that the football rules committee this winter will decide to move the goal posts up from the field. The team has already done so and it has
speeded up their games by giving more chance for field goals. It has been suggested that the uprightrs remain ten yards back and use a goose-neck arrangement to place the upper part of the goal posts on the goal line in an arrangement would prevent injury from collision with the steel uprights.
Wisconsin Has No 'Red Grange' On Football Team
Madison, Wis., Nov. 7—(UP)—Wisconsin Football Coach Stuhldreher isn't taking any chances of getting the University of Illinois all "steamed up" for Saturday's game against Wisconsin.
When Illinois jointed mighty Michigan Saturday, some attributed the upset to Michigan's claim its star balkback. Tom Harmon, was better than Red Grange, Illinois' famed "galloping ghost" of 15 years ago.
"I want Illinois to know," Stuhlreier emphasized today. "That Wisconsin admits it has no PLAYER in
Kansas Hasn't Won From Cornhuskers In 23 Long Years
Two K.U.-N.U. Tilt Jinxes
The question of what happens when two conflicting jinxes come together should be decided Saturday when Kansas plays Neibraaska.
The other jinx is a personal one, namely Gwinn Henry's jinx over Nebraska. This jink dates back to the 1980s. Gwinn was head coach at Missouri.
Nebraksa's jinx over Kansas has held good since 1916, that year being the last time that the Jawaharikhulu Crusaders and the Cornhuskers on the gridron.
When Henry went to Missouri the Tigers had scored on Nebraska only once in twenty-three years. The first year that Gwin was at Mizzou his team scored on the Huskers and gained a 7-7 tie.

In 1957 at Lincoln the two teams tiled, 13-13. Here last year Nehrsika won 16-7. Kansas outgained Nebraska despite the difference in the score.
If you go for more strenuous sports there is badminton.
And any time it doesn't rain is time for steak-frying, etc.
Since both Kansas and Nebraska have a jinx on their side, it may be a matter of which is the toughest jinx, in which case Nebraska would win. In the past, two years is a long time for two teams to play annually, with one of the teams unable to win a single game. The last two games have produced thrilling finishes in which the Huskers have managed to maintain their jinks. Both times Kansas has led in the series, but have Nebraska overcome the lead.
And Yet...
the class with Grange. I'll go far than that. I want them to know that Wisconsin hasn't a player that was BETTER than an Grange."

Takes Bengals East-
Corbin hall defeated the Phi's, 30 to 27, in volleyball Monday night to win the championship for the organized houses. Corbin will play IWW, winner of the independent group, to determine the all-University championship, at 8:15 o'clock tonight.
Members of the Corbin team who have been named as best players include Lenora Grizzell, ed'41; Meridied Wells, ed'49; Phyllis Struble, ph'43; and Joan Steele, c'43. Best players on the Pi Phi team bar Barbara Smyth, c'41; John Hinshaw, c'41; and Virginia Anderson, ed'40.
Early in the second half, the Beta's unleashed their famous passing attack to swamp their opponents. Hall threw a 15-yard pass to Stolland for the second touchdown, a 24-yard toss to McCaslin for the third and repeated his aerials to McCaslin for the last touchdown of the game.
In a postponed contest played Monday, Beta Theta Pt defeated the ISA-5 team, 26 to 0. Vance Hall, Beta quarterback, turned in his usual outstanding performance. His passing featured his team's victory. Stoland, Beta end, intercepted an ISA-5 pass and ran 35 yards for the first touchdown. Fees converted the extra point from placement and the Beta's led 7 to 0 at the end of the first half.
Corbin Hall Wins Volleyball Title
The final Sigma Nu tallly resulted on a beautiful 32-yard heave from Russell to Loeneker. Stephenson, giant Sigma Nu tackle, scored the Tricaster point. Learmont and Trice scoring on the defense for the Dai Tan's.
Pitching the pigskin with his left hand, Russ tossed a stroke on every throw. His first scoring pass traveled 13 yards diagonally across the field to Virgil Wise. A short time later he pegged a pass to Stipp who scored the second touchdown after making a sheeeting catch.
The genial young football coach and athletic director at the University of Missouri is enjoying fine success this fall, as his Tiger gridsrivers lead the Big Six pickup game on Sunday among the ranking teams of the nation, is the only squad to take Missouri' measure so far.

Corbin is the winner of Group I,
Alpha Delta Pt of Group II, and Pi
Beta Phi of Group III.
In a six-man contest yesterday the Hexagons triumphed over ISA8 by a margin of 6 to 2.
Harry Hopp, formerly the terrors of the conference, to a four yard average.
Paced by the brilliant passing of southpaw Jimmy Russell, the Sigma nu eleven overpowered a hard fighting Delta Tau Delta team, 19 to 0, in the only 11-man intramural football game plaved yesterday.
Yet the future looms none too brightly in the Missouri camp this week as three blocking backs were confined to the sidelines with injuries. Bob Faurot, starting blocking back, suffered a recurrence of an old knee injury, and will probably miss the N.Y.U. conflict. His status for the rest of the season is also very doubtful.
The most amazing thing about the game was the lightning-like perial attack which demoralized the Cornhuskusers before the initial period was completed. Though the Nebraskans had been warned and drilled to stop the Christman passes, their defense was like a sieve. And when they dropped back to halt the passes, "Bullet Bill" Cunningham and Myron Council ripped the line to shreds.
