The 66 per cent correctness so far this season on predictions is again in danger as a weekend of possible upsets makes choosing winners very tough.
The big game of the day will be in Columbia, Mo. Unbeaten and second nationally ranked Missouri tangles with once downed Colorado. Since both teams are undefeated in Big Eight play, the probable winner of the conference could be decided in the battle.
Considering the overall strength which the Tigers have shown throughout the season, they must be listed as favorites over the Golden Buffalooes. Because of the Missouri superior defense, it should be 21-14 for the Tigers.
The battle for last place in the league takes place tomorrow in Manhattan as the Oklahoma State Cowboys visit Kansas State.
The Wildcats are considerably weaker than they were at the start of the season due to injuries—they weren't too strong to start with. Oklahoma State has shown moments of fine football and should therefore be picked to win. 21-7.
The game which could provide the most surprises may be at Ames where the Oklahoma Sooners meet the Iowa State Cyclones.
With Cyclone leader Dave Hoppmann back, I-State may be capable of greater things than they have shown the past few weeks. But, the overall power of Oklahoma should win, 21-13.
The Jayhawkers are expecting Nebraska to come to Lawrence looking for their third big upset of the season.
If KU can limp along without the full services of Bert Coan for another game they should be much stronger than the Cornhuskers. This one could be a very close contest, but it should be about time for Kansas to really open up and wallop somebody. Therefore, it may be KU winning, 28-7.

BATON ROUGE, La. —(UPI)— Louisiana State, a regular-season powerhouse, has won only once in six Sugar Bowl outings.
Strike Three
NEW YORK —(UPI)— Babe Ruth struck out 1,330 times during his career. He went to bat 8,399 times officially.
International Club Meeting TONIGHT
KU has many things to worry about when they play the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Memorial Stadium tomorrow.
Jayhawks Clash with Erratic Cornhuskers
The main problem with which Coach Jack Mitchell and his team must contend is well summed up by Mitchell, "They play a good game about every other week. This could be their week."
9:00
Last week the Huskers were slaughtered by Missouri, 0-28. The week before they were surprise winners over Army.
This erratic Nebraska squad will face the Hawkers with a rugged defense—their best weapon this season. Mitchell also said the Nebraska pass defense is good to back up their mobile front line.
Following Movie
Offensively Nebraska lacks drive. They have a fine backfield, but in their 39 games they have scored more than two touchdowns only twice.

DALLAS, Tex. — (UPI)—When Southern Methodist defeated Ohio State 32-27 in 1950, the Mustangs completed 25 forward passes to establish a record for Southwest Conference teams.

Students!
Thornton, the leading Nebraska ground gainer, with better than a four-yard-per-carry average, is the inside threat for the Huskers.
The Nebraska team, which will probably be in its best physical condition of the season, has a solid line led by 225-pound left tackle George Haney.

The other tackle is 232-pound Roland McDole.
The guard slots are filled by 225 pound Tyrone Robertson and 185 pound Dick Kosier.
The Husker center is another giant. 210-pound Mike Tingleloff.
At the end spots will be Bill Comstock at 195 pounds and Don Purcell who weighs just over 200.
One of the Big Eight's top full backs, 190-pound Bill "Thunder" Thornton, will also face KU.
With KU's leading ball carrier, Bert Coan, far from being at full strength, the Jayhawker offense will be far from their peak potential.
"We are going to have our hands full," Mitchell said. "It will take a good team effort. One good chance we do have is if they fumble like they did against Missouri. Otherwise, it will be a good game."

THE PARTY WEEKEND: ITS CAUSE AND CURE
Well, my dear girls, the first thing to remember is that your young gentleman is far from home and frightened. Put him at his ease. You might, for instance, surprise him by having his mother sitting in a rocker on the station platform when he gets off the train.
With the season of party weekends almost upon us, my mail of late has been flooded with queries from young inmates of women's colleges wishing to know how one conducts one's self when one has invited a young gentleman for a weekend, so let us today take up this burning issue.
Next, what kind of corsage should you send your young gentleman? Well, my beloved maidens, orchids are always acceptable. So, indeed, are phlox and delphinium. In fact, most any flora will serve. Do try, however, to avoid carnivorous plants.
If you find, my esteemed fillies, that your local florist has run out of stock, do not be dismayed. Make a corsage out of paper. But pick good, stiff, durable paper—twenty dollar bills, for example.
Remember at all times, my fond wenches, to show your young gentleman courtesy and consideration. Open doors for him, walk on the traffic side of the path, assist him to the punch bowl, zip his parka, light his Marlboros. (What, you ask, if he doesn't smoke Marlboros? Ridiculous, my precious nymphs! Of course, he smokes Marlboros! Don't you? Don't I? Doesn't everybody who knows a hawk from a handsaw? What other cigarette gives you such a lot to like? Such easy-drawing filtration? Such unfiltered taste? Such soft pack or flip-top box? No other, my sweet minxes, no other. Marlboro stands alone, and any man worthy of you, my estimable damsels, is bound to be a Marlboro man.)
If you will follow the simple instructions stated above, my good lasses, you will find that you have turned your young gentleman into a fast and fervent admirer. There is nothing quite like a party weekend to promote romance. I am in mind of a party weekend some years ago at Miss Pomfritt's Seminary for well-born females in West Linotype, Ohio. Serafina Sigafoos, a sophomore at this institution, majoring in napkin folding, sent an invitation to a young man named Fafnir Valve, a junior at the Joyce Kilmer School of Forestry, majoring in sap and bores. Serafina had been ape for Fafnir since high school, but Fafnir preferred a girl named Gelia Fleshwound, the high school drum majorette who once threw a baton so high she impaled a southbound mallard.
Anyhow, Serafina sent an invitation to Fafnir, and he came, and she showered him with kindness and cuff links, and then he went, away, and Serafina sat anxiously by the mailbox, wondering whether she would ever hear from him again. Sure enough, two weeks later she got a letter: "Dear Serafina, Can you let me have fifty bucks? Yours, Fafnir."
Whimpering with ecestasy, she ran to the bank and withdrew the money and mailed it to him. From then on, she got the same request every week, and as a result, she became very well acquainted with Ralph T. Involute, teller of the West Linotype Bank and Trust Co., and their friendship ripened into love, and today they are happily married and live in Stamen, Oregon, where Ralph is in the extruded molasses game and Serafina is a hydrant.
Every weekend is a party weekend with Marlboros—or Marlboro's unfiltered companion cigarette—mild, flavorful Philip Morris. Try the newest Philip Morris—the sensational kingsize Commander. Have a Commander—welcome aboard!
