Game Produced Stars
In 1941 he 162-pound halfback led the Jayhawkers and left his name in Kansas football history. His name was Denzell Gibbens. He is now present assistant athletic business manager and tennis coach. Gibbens returned a kickoff 83-yards for a touchdown and ran 14-yards more to score the winning points as Kansas won 20-16.
1947 Score the Biggest
Back in 1920, A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg, now KU athletic director, kicked two extra points and passed for one touchdown as Kansas defeated Kansas State 14-0.
The game moved to Lawrence in 1935 and KU upset favored Kansas State 9-2.
KU, K-State Rivalry Produces Top Action
This Saturday he will watch the Jayhawkers try for their third win of the season at the expense of the Wildcats.
The annual meeting between the two teams has always been spirited. There is every reason to think this year will follow the pattern.
Kansas has won 35 of the 55 games played between the schools. There have been three tied games. Kansas has scored 840 points in the series. Kansas State scored 430.
In 1932 Coach Adrian Lindsey's Jayhawkers won 19-0 at Manhattan to complete a string of winning every game played away from Lawrence that year.
Kansas won every game from 1906 until 1924 in the series. Kansas State broke this losing streak with a 6-0 victory in 1924.
Kansas rolled to its greatest margin ever over the Wildcats when it won 55-0 in 1947. The game was the 23rd straight loss for Kansas State. It had all the aspects of a free-for-all.
Don Fambrough, present freshman football coach, kicked several extra points in that game.
The 1949 Kansas team defeated Kansas State 38-0. Forrest Griffith was the KU star.
All America Ray Evans led the Jayhawkers to victory in 1942 with his running and passing. The final score was 19-7.
Coach Henry Shenk's team made it three straight over the Wildcats in 1943 with a 25-2 victory. Shenk
St. Benedict's Takes Fifth in NAIA
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — (UPI) — Weekend upsets shuffled most top ten ratings of college football teams by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, but Northeast Oklahoma with its 7-0 record stayed in the lead.
Williamette of Salem, Ore., and Arizona State of Flagstaff, which have shifted positions regularly all season, switched again with Williamette going into second place and Arizona State into third.
Unbeaten Missouri Valley College of Marshall, Mo. (5-0) moved into fourth place with unbeaten St. Benedict's of Atchison, Kan. (7-0) taking over fifth.
is now associate professor of physical education.
The story was the same in 1950 when the Jayhawkers won 47-7. The Wildcats finished in the Big Seven cellar for the eight consecutive time.
HOSE GAME LAST
Last year they won more quarterback Duane Morris three in desperation pass to Homer Floyd with eighteen seconds remaining on the clock. Floyd romped past three would-be tacklers and scored to win the game 13-7. John Peppercock threw a key block to send Floyd on his way.
A Close Game Last Year
Bobby Marshall injured his knee and Wally Strauch suffered a fracture of his right hand to take KU's first and second quarterbacks out of action.
Ivy League Back Repeats
This year Marshall will play again, but Strauch has graduated.
NEW YORK —(UPI) —Tom Skypek, Cornell quarterback, has been named the Ivy League's "back of the week" for the second straight week. Skypek, a Chicopee, Mass., predentory senior, scored two touchdowns against Princeton and set up two others in a 34-8 upset.
Every year about this time, football fever grips Boulder, Colo. When the Buffaloes meet Oklahoma, everything else is forgotten.
Two years in a row, the Buffs have come close to knocking off the kings of the Big Eight, but they have never quite finished the job.
Coach Ward makes no secret of the fact that his team points toward the clash with the Sooners. There is an element of revenge for the Buffaloes who lost a heart-breaker 13-14 last year at Norman.
This is the year of years for coach Dal Ward and his men. They are undefeated. They rank ninth in the nation in the latest Associated Press poll. They lead the conference standings with a 4-0 record.
Two years ago at Boulder, the Buffaloes slashed into a 19-6 lead over the national championship Sooners, only to falter and lose in the final period 27-19.
The Buffaloes have another reason for wanting a win this year. There is an excellent chance that the winner will represent the conference at the Orange Bowl.
Buffs Primed, Ready To Stampede Sooners
Orange Bowl For Victor?
Saturday's game is not the last for either team but no other conference team appears strong enough to challenge them.
Both teams warmed up for the big clash with victories over Big Eight opponents last Saturday. Oklahoma swamped Kansas State 40-6 and Colorado beat Nebraska 27-16. The Buffs had a tough time with the surprising Huskers at Boulder and did not take the lead until the
fourth quarter. The Sooners used breaks to good advantage to pull away from K-State in the last half.
Wilkinson Concerned
Coach Bud Wilkinson of the Sooners will not commit himself on Saturday's game. But he expressed his concern over the power of the Buffaloes.
"We have gone to Colorado four times," he said. "We have never won by more than one touchdown. One game ended in a tie.
"We have taken a lot better teams in the past than this year and we play the best Colorado team they've had."
Buffs Lead in Points
The league-leading Buffaloes are tops in scoring in the Big Eight with 156 points and have yielded the fewest points—31 in five games.
The Sooners are second in both departments. They have scored 150 points in the same number of games and have given up 36.
Colorado holds victories over Iowa State, Arizona, Kansas, Kansas State and Nebraska. Oklahoma has won from Kansas, Kansas State, West Virginia and Oregon, while losing by one point to Texas.
The first intercollegiate basketball game was played with William Jewell College on April 3, 1899 and was won by KU, 19 to 3.

STUDENT SUBVERSIVES REVALED AT K. U.
By "Smiley" Joe
Lawrence, Kans. (TNE) — It was revealed today by Joe Koollmann, famed chief of the campus police, that signs of subversive activity have been brought to his attention. Investigation by the Kansas chapter of the F.B.I. and the A.S.C. Un-American Activities Committee has uncovered several indications of an organized movement centering in the Kansas Union.
Large mobs of students have been observed congregating in the Trail Room on Wednesday nights, ostensibly for dancing, but this is assumed to be merely a cover operation to conceal their actual purposes.
Actual organized meetings going under the name of the "Poetry Hour" are being held on Thursday afternoons at 4:30 in the Music Room—right under the nose of university officials! This Thursday the meeting will be conducted by Prof. A. C. Edwards who will supposedly speak on "Verse Drama." A high official reportedly stated that "the best way to fight this menace to our security would be to attend these meetings and find out exactly what is going on here."
Two more possible front activities have been discovered. At 7:30 last night a suspicious looking group met in the SUA Craft Shop for silk screen lessons. A spokesman for the group stated that they would continue these night-time affairs until the Christmas holidays. One of their prime objects is the production of Christmas cards and the like—an outright denial of the right of the democratic, completely American businessmen of this area to make a decent living.
In addition, a series of six two-hour bridge lessons will be initiated next Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Card Room, the fee being only one dollar for the series. This obviously is an attempt to undermine our economic system by severely undercutting the price ordinarily charged for a service of this nature.
A Note from the Editor: You, too, have probably noticed this activity at the Union. If you haven't, why not give it a look—you may not find subversives but you'll certainly have a good time.
