OK The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XXXV LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1937 NUMBER 55 AWAIT LARGE HOMECOMING CROWD Missouri-Kansas Game Expected To Draw 30,000 Kell's Pass to Morris defeats Phi Psi 6 to 0 in Hard Fought Battle After Scoreless First Half—Allen and Durand Play Well for Losers—Game Marked by Four Penalties The Phi Gam's won the Intraurmural touch football championship yesterday afternoon by beating the Phi Gam in a four-fight battle, by a score of 6-0. The Phi Gam's scored midway in the second half on a pass from Kel to Morris from the Phi Pai 4-yard line after a sustained drive. Morris caught Kell's pass in the midst of a group of Phi Pai play-in at the end zone for a touchdown. Kell's try for extra point was blocked. The first half was an evenly fought affair with neither team penetrating beyond the other's 20-yard line save on one occasion when the Phi Gam's rushed the ball to the Phi Pai's 3-yard line, where the Phi Psi line stiffened and held for downs, Huttig getting through to break up Kell's shovel pass. The Phi Pai's immediately were put out of danger by a long spiral punt off the toe of Kline, left tackle. The feature of the play in the first half was the directing genius of Bob Plane, who collected the Phi Pai's, and the work of Kell, who was easily the sparkplug of the Phi Gam offensive. Neither team showed much offensive strength and the contest looked like a deadlock as the gun sounded for the half. Teams Find Punch The second half saw both teams opening up their offensive punch. The teams had changed sides and the Phi Gams found themselves going down hill against the Phi Pai's kellicked to Durand who returned to the Phi Pai's thirty-yard line. The Phi Pai's attempted an end run with redheaded Franklin skirting left end, but he was stopped for no gain by McLaughlin, Phi Gam right back takeoff and then was washing out the Phi Pai backs and so after two incomplete passes Kline dropped back and punted to LeMone on the Phi Gam 10-yard line. On the next play Kell能 pass to Bevins for 20 yards and he touched on the Phi Pai's 4-yard线. From this point it was first and goal for the Phi Gams, and they realized their opportunity. K e11 dropped back and shot a pass over center which was knocked down. On the second down Kell attempted to run but the ball touched Phi Psi line. On the third try, Kell again tried to pass but it was incomplete. With fourth down and still 4 yards to go for that coveted touchdown, Kell faded back and shot a bullet pass to Morris, who caught the ball while stumbling at the end zone, for a touchdown. Inspire Phi Psi's Kell dropped back to convert, but his kick was blocked. This spirted offensive on the par of the Phi Psi's seemed to inspire the Phi Psi's, as they came back with a rush. Taking Kell's kickoff, Durand returned to his own 25 yard line. On the next play Bot Allen, Phi Psi quarterback and back passed to Durand for a first down. He then played again found after passing, this time to Bowles for another 10 yards, and the Phi Psi offensive had begin to move. Playing with desperation and fighting against time, Allen again passed. This time the ball was taken by Franklin, who raced to the Phi Gam 4-yard line. By this time the Gam rooters were sensing Phi Psi touchdowns and colored their ball that line," while the Phi Psi loyalists were frenzied with Few Penalties Mark Game With the ball on the Phil Gam 4-yard line, first and goal to go, it looked like at least the Phil Pai's would come away with a tie. However Fate was not nodding in that direction, for the Phil Gam line rose to the occasion and held for downs. On the fourth down, Bob Allen elected to pass again when an open field beckoned to him. If he had chosen to run there might have been a different score, for certainly there was Japan Setting Up Own Rule Continued on page eight Begins Action Toward Establishment of N new Nation in China Shanghai, Nov. 24. (Wednesday) —(UP) Confident that a complete collapse of effective resistance in China is near, and that failure of the international Far Eastern conference in Brussels to agree on specific aid to the Chinese has removed the immediate danger of foreign interference, told he could put into effect her carefully prepared plans to make over vast areas of this eastern country on a Japanese pattern. Meantime, the Japanese army has continued to smash its way westward from Shanghai towards Nanking, China's abandoned central capital, while her air scouts ranged as far inland as Hankow. U. S. Ambassador to Hankow The planes flew over foreign war- ships on which the United States ambassador and other diplomats were proceeding to Hankow, in an effort to keep in touch with the fleeing Chinese foreign office. Tokyo reported that "seemingly prophetic press messages" from Hopei, Suiyan, Chahar, and northern Hanon provinces—in the areas of North China conquered by the Japanese army—emphasized a "burning desire" among Chinese leaders in the northern provinces to establish a federation of autonomous local governments to include all of China lying north of the Yellow river. Plan New State This federation is in line with the plan for indirect control of Maj- gen. Kenji Hiohara, North China political expert of the Japanese government to effect an impact in the so-called North China autonomy movement last year. it the federation is launched it probably will include all of Hopei and Shansi provinces, and parts of Chahar, Fuiyuan, Shantung, and Shensi. Additional areas may be added later. The proposed new state would have a population of more than 150 million people. President's Grammer Chided Washington, Nov. 23—(UP) —Whether President Roosevelt used like" instead of "as" and generally scrambled the English language on his recent western trip remained a mystery tonight; and it began to appear that the newspaper boys would have to take the rap. "Not me or I (whichever is correct)" the President said in effect today when told of the professor's letter. He explained that the offending speeches were made externo-personally and blamed newspaper correspondents who had no advance text. Prof. Janet T. Aiken of Columbia University in New York City started all the trouble when she wrote an open letter chiding Mr. Roosevelt for tossing the rhetoric with gay abandon. Fussy critics noted in her letter she used a verbless sentence. The reporters obtained stenographic notes of Mr. Roosevelt's remarks, and then shifted part of the blame back on his shoulders.

State Students Ove r Last Year's Total Registration of Kansans at the University of Kansas Nov. 1 was exactly 3,800, according to the annual check-up of students made by Geo. O. Foster, registrar. This is an increase of 102 over the number of Kansans registered a year ago, and is an all-time high for state attendance at the University. All counties of the state except Keanury have been represented for the past two years. Out-of-state registration, on the other hand, due, it is presumed, to the restoration and even raising of out-of-state fees, fell off 119, while the registration from foreign countries remained unchanged at 13. Total registration Nov. 1, then, was 4,614 this year, compared with 4,831 a year ago, a drop of 17 or over half, or more than one-half of one per cent. Principal increases were from Johnson and Shawnee counties, and the chief decreases from Missouri (down 68); Oklahoma (down 17); and New York (down from 56 to 33). Douglas county, being the home of the University, is credited with the largest number of students, due in part to the influx of temporary residents. Others of the larger counties, and their registration, are: Shawnee, 306; Wyndotte, 289; Sedgewick, 131; Johnson, 122. Haskell, Stanton, and Wallace have but one student each at the University. Burton Crane To Talk Tuesday Burton Crane, lecturer and traveler, will speak in central Administration auditorium Tuesday, Nov. 20, at 8:30 p.m., on the political, economic and social aspects of "Asia at War." The lecture is sponsored by the Student Forum Board. Mr. Crane, a former member of the Princeton Debate Club, has spent the past 12 years of his life in the Orient. For the past seven years he was financial editor of the Japan Advertiser, one of the foremost papers of the East. He was also editor of two English journals, one of which was the Trans-Pacific. He is now associated with the Columbia Broadcasting system and with the Wall Street Journal. Dr. Ray Moulton, head of the Brookings Institute, has described Mr. Crane as being an "economic wizard," and he is also recommended as a speaker by Dr. William Lydgate, American Institute of Public Opinion. Government Checks Deporting Campaign Washington, Nov. 23.—(UP) The federal government is cautiously investigating an alleged campaign to effect the deportation of two CIO officials on the ground that they are aliens and members of the Communist party, it was learned tonight. The drive reportedly is being directed against Harry Bridges, longshoreman leader and Pacific coast director of C.I.O., and Harold Prittchet, president of the new International Woodworkers union. Tigers Hold Slight Advantage Coaches Faurot and Ad Lindsey Will Shoot The Works in Final Big Six Encounter The Missouri confidence which prevailed after last year's game, and resulted in their scheduling a game with the University of California at Los Angeles just two days after the Kansas game here, has gradually disappeared as the season ended. This season, plus a decline at Missouri, has caused the dope to assume an almost even level. A homecoming crowd of 30,000 or more may view the traditional Tiger-Jawhaker argument on Memorial field tomorrow afternoon if the weather is agreeable. With turkey under their belts, n song in their hearts and doubt in their minds, the colorful crowd may expect anything other than Don Don Missouri and Ad Lindsay of Kansas, are expected to "shoot the works" in the last Big Six game of the season for the two teams. Tiger Injuries Few The Tigers will go into the game as slight favorites, despite the fact that Kansas is above them now in the conference standings. The Jayhawk slump against K-State two weeks ago accounts for the drop in the Lindseymen's pre-game stock. An other advantage other advantage for the Tigers will CALDWELL MAX RE BLOGLE action of some of *REPLODE* their stars who have been out with injuries most of the season. The Jay-hawkers, on the other hand, had good luck with their injuries until the past two weeks, and now have three or four regulars on the aling list figer Line Weight Advantage Chief Jayhawk worry now appears to be their all-around bacceal ace, Max Replogle, whose injured leg may keep him from starting. In case he does not, the Arizona Lindsey plans to send Paul Masoner, regular quarterback, to left half-back. Then Milton Valliant, regular left half, would go to right halfback and Kenneth Caldwell, 180-pound sophomore, to quarterback. Clarence Douglass, a guard after missing the Arizona game because of an attack of the flu. Lindsey doesn't expect Douglass to be good for more than a half because of his long stay in bed. Maurice Cannedy, speedy 175–pound senior, and Harlan Lanter, 185–pound sophomore, will probably see considerable action at the fullback post in case Douglass gives out. Coach Faurot will start a line that holds a weight advantage of five pounds to the man over the Jay-vesh when Godfried Rau, veteran tackle, enters the game.
