I figure its high time I put my head on the chopping block and play Saturday's football games right now.
Our foggy office crystal ball has disclosed the winning teams of all of the Big Eight games scheduled this weekend plus several games around the nation.
KANSAS WILL BEAT SYRACUSE...an upset pick and a precarious perch for us to climb out on according to football "experts" who also sit pounding away at their typewriters to earn a living.
The Jayhawkers have the strength and the ability to pull this one off and also have the valuable extra week's experience. Syracuse will be playing its first game of the season this Saturday. Besides, what college or university student doesn't think HIS team can wallop the opposing foe on any field of battle.
Northwestern has been picked by many as an upset victor over Big Eight Kingpin Oklahoma and this is one we will sure go along with. Hit 'em hard at the first of the season and weaken them before they have a chance to meet us. The office heretic wants to bet us a beer on this one, although he agrees with all the rest.
KANSAS STATE. still smarting after the skunking it got last week from underdog Wichita shouldn't have much trouble with little South Dakota State. If the Cats do have trouble, they should drop out of football.
Michigan also won't meet a tremendous amount of opposition in thumping Missouri. Colorado is new and will probably fall under the fast moving wheels of Baylor. Minnesota over Nebraska, Denver over Iowa State and Arkansas over Oklahoma State are our other conference member predictions.
GOING WAY OUT on our diminishing limb, we see Wichita over Hardin-Simmons, Ohio State over Duke, North Carolina over Notre Dame, Wisconsin over Stanford, Texas over Maryland and the Air Force over Wyoming.
Boston University over George Washington, Army over Boston College. Navy over William and Mary, Penn State over Virginia Military Institute, Alabama over Houston, Southern Methodist over Georgia Tech and last but not least, National champion Louisiana State over Texas Christian.
(Editor's Note: Lonesome George, who got his name from wandering alone Along the Jayhawk Trail, will appear weekly in The Daily Kansan with his exclusive predictions $ ^{2} $ of the coming football games during the weekend.)
The White Sox did their part by clinching their first American League pennant in 40 years with a 4-2 victory over the Indians Tuesday night, and the Braves took a big step in the same general World Series direction when they defeated the Pirates, 5-3, to move a full game ahead in the National League. There were several standouts in the White Sox' clincher.

The Chicago White Sox are "in"
and the neighboring Milwaukee
Braves may be joining soon to
set up modern-day baseball's closest
approach to the old-time nickel
World Series.
It costs only $2.31 (tax included) to travel by bus from Chicago to Milwaukee, about 85 miles away, and that path looks more and more like the one fans will be shuttling on during the World Series time.
White Sox Clinch Pennant

Al Smith and Jim Rivera supplied the muscle with sixth inning homers. Early Wynn, who won his 21st game, and Bob Shaw held the batting Indians in tow over the first $8\frac{1}{2}$ innings. Then when Cleveland loaded the bases in the ninth, sinkerballer Gerry Staley sauntered in from the bullpen, delivered one pitch and got Vic Power to hit into a game-ending double play.
It was a sweet triumph for Al Lopez, who had finished second the past four years, twice as manager of the Indians and the last two years with the White Sox. But it was a bitter defeat for Joe Gordon of the Indians, who officially left
Ron Michaels, triple position back-field man, has three more years of eligibility under conference hardship rules. Michaels was injured in first varsity action against Colorado last year and is recovering from a spring shoulder operation.
The Braves' victory over the Pirates moved them a game ahead of the Dodgers and two in front of the fading Giants. The Cardinals knocked the Dodgers out of a first-place tie by beating them, 11-10, and the Cubs downed the Giants, 5-4. The Phillies swept a twi-nighter from the Reds, 3-1 and 3-2.
Two KU sports clubs and the swimming team announced organizational meetings today in preparation for their coming seasons.
The University volleyball team will hold its first meeting of the year at 7 o'clock tonight in room 203 Robinson. All members of last year's squad and all persons interested in trying out for the team are invited to attend the meeting.
the club as manager the instant the final out was made. Pitching Coach Mel Harder will lead the Tribe in their remaining four games.
Three Sports Plan Seasons
Southpaw Juan Pizarro, credited with his sixth victory, helped the
KU's soccer team will hold its organizational meeting at 7 o'clock Friday night in room 306-B of the Kansas Union. Coach Gerald Keltch said today that he expects eight members of last year's team to return but that he still had several vacancies to fill on the team. Two matches have already been scheduled for the Jayhawkers according to Keltch.
Coach Jay Markley asked today for all freshmen and upperclassmen interested in varsity swimming to contact him before Monday. Both the yearling and varsity squads will start their fall drills Monday afternoon.

Braves as much with his bat as he did with his pitching arm. Ordinarily a weak hitter, Pizarro blooped a two-run double just inside the left field foul line to highlight a three-run seventh inning rally against loser Harvey Haddix.
