Kansas Hopes For Victory Over Sooners
Jayhawks Have Been Drilled Hard This Week For Second Big Six Conference Battle
Memories of upsets over supposedly stronger Sooner teams with a tie in 1934 and a victory in 1935, have stirred the Jayhawkers this week with ambitions to turn the trick again. To that end Coach Ad Lindsay and the rest of the staff have had to defend and hard so that it will be ready to stand the pounding of the beefy Sooner line.
Yesterday afternoon the squad spent two hours in stiff scrimmage against the freshmen. The first-string line saw action for nearly half an hour, with the exception of Hard-acre who is temporarily handcapped by a leg injury. Of the regular only Musco Sibilant and Weinbach were in the scrimmage. The reserve finished against the yearlings.
Reserves Have Spirit
The spirit and drive of some of the reserves were pleasing to the coaches and spectators, Meier being particularly outstanding with his powerful thrusts through the freshman line, and with his vicious blocking and tackling. Ebling also looked good in the reserve backfield.
This afternoon the reserves will again work against the freshmen with the varsity taking it easy. To tomorrow afternoon the squad will lumber up before entraining for Norman.
Down in Soonerland Coach Tom Stidman is drilling his men with the hope there will be no let-down after defeating Riege, and tying Texas and Nebraska in the past three weeks. However, Oklahoma's performance in those three games against three of the nation's strong teams makes the Sooners the odds-on favorites to give the Jawhawkers a good beatings
Big Six "Best" To Play
Leading the exceptionally strong Sooner line will be Pete Smith and Waddy Young, both veterans said to be the best in the Big Six, and Mickey Parks, 220-pound power-hungry junior. Parks was a regular, edging out Conkray, then a sophomore, who was named all-Big Six center last year. That season Parks made the Kansas City Star all-Big Six second team, Meier, Nebraska, who rejoiced in a recent mention, being rated over him by
Heading the Oklahoma backfield are AI Corrotta, chunky little line backer and blocker, and Webb Merrell and Woody Huddleston, punter extraordinary who averaged 18.5 yards against Nebraska with a muddy ball.
Oklahoma will have an advantage in line weights with an average of 199 pounds to the man, if the same
MORDKIN BALLET
An unusual treat is in store for the military, who are performing arts when the Mordenkirch Imperial Russian Badet appears at Avarat. The Badet also performs performances on Friday and Sat. (Maurizio Bastoni)
This highly skilled organization, which numbers 100 artists, will present three widely-discussed mini-dramas in addition to many colorful visual divertments, all tailored to the personal direction of Mikhail Mordkin.
During the past six years this former partner of Pavlova has been training American and Russian dancers in a partnership with occasional performances in New York, until his first American performance last winter of 2013. "The beauty," provided a notable success and encouraged him to revive Adolphie Adam's "Giselle" and add his signature, "the Goldfish."
The latter is a highly ambitious ambition to create a new own transcription from Alexander Calder's fantastic and poetic "Fairy Tale of Fantasy" and poetic "Gulliver's Swallowfish". It invited an elaborate costume production, designed by the great Soudekine of the Metropolitan Opera, which was attended by the Centenary celebration in honor of Russia's first national poet, who

Baton Rouge, La. Oct. 20—(UP)—Louisiana State University's chief football scout has taken to the air again.
Provides Plane To Help Scout Rivals
Dean J. P. Frame of the L.S.U. school of aeronautics, pilots J. B. Whitworth in the university-owned cabin monoplane on cross-country jumps to size up opponents of the United States in maneuvers of the Southeastern Association.
The former Alabama star who kicked a field goal and two extra points against Washington Cate in the 1931 Rose Bowl game is a firm believer in flying as an asset to a football scout. He has flown more than 15,000 miles in the last two seasons, including three games in two days.
"I get to the game site in a few hours, rested, to alert and ready to jut down anything our future opponents may do in the field." Whitworth said. "It's faster, cooler and cleaner in a plane. It makes the game easier. To top it all, from a personal standpoint, I can see a lot more L.S.U. games that way!"
Whitworth likes to fly, but has no ambition to be a pilot. Once in the air, he sometimes handles the controls for Frame.

"Shin-Plasters" Go Out
Along the Sideline By William Fitzgerald, c'39 Kansas Sports Editor
From Iowa State comes word that Jim Yelpey is going to do plenty of shifting around with his first string backfield in preparation for the Drake game this weekend. Hugh Vickersetter, 150-pound speedster from North Dakota down Saturday, will be left in the first combination along with George Bazik and Bill Lechtenburg, also second string backs until Saturday. This combination, along with Al Waile, completed 6 out of 9 passes in the last half against Kansas and Wisconsin, and finished down. Iowa State will have tough sliding this week against Drake's probable Missouri Valley champions
The two conference games this
week will see Kansas invading Oklahoma, and Nebraska going to Columbia to try to subdue Don Fauro's snarling Missouri Tigers. If the games go as expected, the Sooners and Huskers will be on top of the Big Six heap at about 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
The Jayhawkers are in for a rough afternoon Saturday at Oklahoma regardless of the outcome. Oklahoma is going to outweigh Kansas about 12 pounds to the math, and on their home field the Sooners are very young. Stitch and the Stiffen Smith and "Waddy" Young give Oklahoma two of the best ends in the conference and the rest of their line compares quite favorably with that of Kansas. Oklahoma, which outweigh Kansas in the backfield, probably will present more speed, but Oklahoma has two great kickers in Merrel and Huddleston the Sooners are rather heavily favored.
On the other hand, the Sooners will have trouble gaining through the center of the Kansas line with Boslevac, Ward, Stapleton, Anderson and Warren or Hull plugging up the holes. There is a good chance that Sullivan or Douglass may crash Kansas into an early lead, and
the Jäywahners have proved themselves to be very stubborn when they get ahead. They might even pull another Happgood to Hayes pass in the last fifty seconds to what they did two years ago at Norman. (The only factors missing this year will be Happgood and Hayes.)
Missouri is likely to give Nebraska quite an argument at Columbia Saturday, now that Oklahoma has proven that the Huskers aren't invincible. If Missouri can whip the Huskers in their year of title, with Oklahoma still presenting their major hurdle. Of course, they would still have Iowa State and Kansas to sail past, but if they got through Nebraska and Oklahoma alive they probably won't spend much time worrying about these other two teams. And they wouldn't be using a game with UCLA, at Los Angeles just two days after the Thanksgiving Day game here.
K-State also meets a Missouri Valley opponent this weekend. The Wildcats meet Creighton at Omaha and should come through with a win. The Mountaineers did against Marquette. The Manthean team has two of the best
backs in the conference in Howard Cleveland and Elmer Hackney, Hackney, a smashing backfill, seems to be following in the foot-steps of other former great Aggie backfills such as "Rambling Ralph" Graham and "Red" Elder. Their line is also coming through in fine shape and features such play spillers as Tony Krueger, Doe Beeler, and Augustus Caesar Cardarelli (Whanta name, but whatta man!)
Jolts- We figured we had lost our best two-montior Tuesday when we saw Ernie Klann running down the street *a la mahattana Ghandi*. (Blanket, three-cornered trousers and all.) Come to find out, however, it was only part of the "K Club initiation. Now that we think of it, we didn't see many of the new K men around Tuesday . . . The big question mark on the football squad is Dave Shirk, star end last year. Shirk was counted on to be the team captain, so far his usefulness has been confined to the first half of the Washburn game. Shirk's leg injury in that game combined with a foot injury he received this summer may keep the scrappy end on the bench much of the time this season.
