Henry Orders Secret Grid Practice
Jayhawkers Drill Hard For Coming Clash With State Rivals Nov.3
With a few new tricks up his sleeve and a weather eye out for strange spectators, Gwinn Henry, canny Jayhawker football mentor, has ordered secret practice for the remainder of this week and all of next week as the Kansas gridmen prepared for their tough state school rival Kansas Angies.
The Agies will invade Memorial stadium the afternoon of Nov. 3, a Friday. The game is expected to draw a share of the thousands of people expected here for the National Cornhuskusing contest to be held that morning.
Last night the Jayhawks polished up their offense, which included a couple of new plays, in a lengthy dummy scrimmage and later ran wild against the freshmen in pass scrimmage. Eldreth
Henry expressed himself as fairly well pleased with the showing of his men against Oklahoma last Saturday, but pointed out that the toughest part of the Big Six schedule yet remains. The Jax-yer team faces Washington this week following the K-State tilt and after a non-conference clash with George Washington, meet Missouri, Nov. 25.
Cadwalader, Marvin Vanderveer and Ralph Miller, who is slated to see his first grid service of the year in the Aggie tussle, doing the throwing.
Despite the bruising entertainment furnished by the Sooners last week in their 27-7 victory, all hands came through without serious injury and Kansas to be at full strength when Nov. 3 rolls around. Kansas State tangles with Nebraska this week.
It is reported from the Wildcat camp that Elmer Hackney, the famed "One Man Gang" might be ready for the Kansasray. If not, his place will be filled by Kent Patterson, who has shown up well in games so far this season. No KU. lineup switches have been intimated to date.
Cyclones Plan To Stop 'Paul'
★ Christman Has Completed
32 Out of 67 Passes for
383 Yards
Ames, Iowa, Oct. 25—Working on the theory that if Paul Christman can be stopped, Missouri can be stopped, the Iowa State Cyclones are stressing pass defense this week.
So far this year "Tossing Paul" has completed 32 out of 67 passures for a total yardage of 383. Most of his tosses go to the Orf twins at ends or to Jim Sturmer, left half-bened. Besides doing the passing, Christian does the punting and a large share of the ball carrying. He has an average of approximately 40 yards a punt.
The main problem facing the coaches this week is to instil enough drive to carry the ball over the goal. In the last three games the Iowa Staters had plenty of chances to score, but each time the offense bogged down when the team got up to the 20-yard line.
To try to offset the passing ability of Christman, the Cyclones will use Merle Osborne's running and a stalwart forward wall. Since the Denver game, the Iowa State line has shown great improvement and has held its own in the last three games.
Line Coach Ed Bock is well pleased with the way the line has been functioning on the defense, but is stressing speed this week. Bock hopes that the line will be able to handle balance when he tries to pass.
No changes are contemplated in the forward wall. It is expected that Bob Burrell, sophomore left, will attempt to clear up the hole, after missing the Drake game.
K-State Game To Be on Friday
The Jayahawkers will play their first Friday afternoon game in the history of the University when they meet K-State here one week from
The game was moved up from the usual Saturday date because of the huge crowd that is expected here for the National Cornhusking Contest, which is to be held that morning. An event with 100,000 people will be here for the Contest.
University authorities believe the Stadium may be filled for the game According to reports from Manhattan, a big delegation of K-Staters will be here for the game.

HOLDEN LINES By CLAVELLE HOLDEN, Kansan Sports Editor
As bad as we hate to admit it, Kansas was not the last conference school to score on Oklahoma before the Jayhawks tallied last Saturday, as most of the papers have been saying. In 1937, after Kansas had beaten the Sooners 6-3, Iowa State scored a six-pointer although they lost to the Norman crew.
How many of you drug store quarterbacks really know the rules? Did you know that when you signal for a fair catch you have the right to a free kick? If a team punting from close to it's goal line get off a short kick what would be wrong with calling for a free catch then trying for a field goal. On the play there would be no line-up, scrimmage, or anything, just the kick. Most teams probably prefer to take the ball and try for a touchdown.
Jayhawkers on the All-Big Six team this year may be as scarce as victories over Nebraska. Chitwood, Sullivan, and
Amerine stand the best chance of receiving the coveted gift. Chitwood, a good defensive player and excellent blocker, is a bit short for a good pass receiver, and may miss the team on that account. Amerine is without doubt, in our opinion, the best broken field runner in the Conference. But he can't do anything but lug the ball.
Price To Speak To Math Group
G. Bailey Price, assistant professor of mathematics, will speak on "Convex Sets" at a math colloquium to be held at 4:15 p.m. today in the lounge's办公室 of强克华塔 Hall.
ling runs in the three remaining league tilts, "Dashing Dick" may win one of the halback positions. Personally we think Milt Sullivant should make it in a breeze. Anyone who follows the Jayhawkers knows that he is the power of the Kansas backfield. He is a sure tackler, a good field general, a devastating blocker, and can carry the ball with plenty of speed and power when the occasion so demands. He is definitely All-Star material.

Somebody cracked that Auburn's team is Pull-man trained in Clay and Clay Center triangle Friar Frank Luther's jacket gridron . . . They rate as it was the best high school teams in the state, even if Belleville beat Clay Center last week . . . Both teams use a razze-dazzle offense . . . Frank Thomas, late last Saturday's night-mare with Tennessee, remarked there were so many Volunteers on the field that he thought they were running out from the bench to tackle his Bama ball carriers . . . Jock Sutherland, who viewed the game from the press box, said Alabama had three men that would play on his Tennessee team . . . Which he adds is the highest compliment that he can pay a collegiate football player . . . The former Pitt tutor even went so far as to say Tennessee was the best grid team in the country, believing they could be any of the professional aggregations.

Grid Rivalry Dates Back To 1911 Game
★ Huskers Favored To Win Over Wes Fry's Eleven; Wildcats Have Won Only Twice
Manhattan, Oct. 25—Another chapter in the colorful Kansas State-Nebraska University football series which has thrilled thousands of spectators since its start back in 1911 will highlight the 1939 Kansas State homecoming festivities here Saturday, Oct. 28.
Frank L. Myers, assistant to the director of athletics, reports a record advance ticket sale and predicts a crowd capacity for the contest, the No. 1 grid attraction in this season. Because of the large sale thus far for the number of general admission tickets will be limited, Myers said.
JUST this . . . most man like a tan shoe . . . after that first "sore thumb" newness has worn off. So Freeman takes the finest tan leathers and "antiques" them with hand staining. They're lovable at first sight.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
The Huskers, unaffected in four games including one in Big Six conference competition, will enter the contest favored to win. They have won 18 of the 22 games played between the schools, but Kansas State-Nebraska games at Manhattan are noted for being close. Only
ROYAL COLLEGE SHOP
After opening the season with a 7 to 7 tie with Indiana, the Huskers upset Minnesota 6 to 0, defeated Iowa State 10 to 7 and whipped Baylor 20 to 0. The Wildcats, definitely improved over a year ago, turned back Fort Hays State College 34 to 7, Marquette 3 to 0, and Oklahoma State's record was blemished last week with a 9 to 7 loss to Missouri.
two games in the series have been won by the Wildcats. Two ended in scoreless ties.
Coach Wes Fry's pupils will be seeking revenge against the Huskers who managed to hold Elmer Huckney, fullback at the goal line several times to save a 14 to 7 victory at Lincoln last Thanksgiving day. The Huskers resorted to a field goal to win 3 to 0, in their last appearance. The defending thumping K-State 40 to 0 in Lincoln in 1956. The teams battled to a scoreless tie in 1953, but Kansas State trimmed the Huskers 19 to 7 to wind up the 1934 season with the Big Six football championship.
