Oklahoma Tops UP Grid Poll For 2nd Week
NEW YORK—(UP) Oklahoma, Michigan State and Georgia Tech retained the 1-2-3 spots today in the United Press college football ratings, which placed three Big Ten conference powers among the first five teams
Michigan moved up four places to No. 4 and Ohio State clung to the No. 5 ranking.
South Well Represented
The Southeastern conference also was well-represented with Mississippi and Tennessee, two newcomers among the week's top 10, in addition to Georgia Tech.
Mississippi advanced five notches to eighth, while Tennessee vaulted all the way to 10th from a tie for 23rd last week. Texas Christian (6th), Pittsburgh (7th) and Southern California (9th) were the other teams in the top 10.
Oklahoma, which turned in its 31st consecutive victory by walloping North Carolina, 36-0, was an overwhelming choice for the top spot by the 35 leading coaches who rate the teams weekly for the United Press.
The Sooners, rated tops in the nation last year, should have little difficulty making Kansas State their 32nd straight victim next Saturday.
Michigan v. Michigan State
Michigan v. Michigan State The week's top game, however, shapes up between Michigan State and Michigan, the nation's second and fourth ranked teams. Michigan State received two votes for the No. 1 ranking this week, the Wolverines were the top choice of three coaches.
Army headed the second 10 group, moving up four places from last week. The Cadets were followed in order by Texas A and M, SMU, Navy, Minnesota, Baylor and Illinois. There was a three-team tie for 18th place among Notre Dame, Miami (Fla.) and Iowa.
In all, 29 teams received points this week. Others were Stanford, Duke, Oregon, Syracuse, Maryland, Purdue, Wisconsin, Vanderbilt and Yale.

The Central Intercollegiate conference goes into a full slate of conference games this week with defending champion Pittsburg, which has won three straight games, playing at St. Benedict's Saturday in quest of another title.

Defending champion College of Emporia already has taken the lead in the Kansas conference with two wins. Kansas Wesleyan and McPherson each have one win and Friends has a win and a loss. The other four each have one loss.
College of Emporia beat Baker, 35-18, last week. Friends edged Ottawa, 14-13, Wesleyan beat Bethany 39-7, and McPherson blanked Bethel, 20-0.
Pittsburg and Fort Hays, which got its first win under coach Wayne McConnell last week, were favored in their games with the Washburn-Emporia State affair listed as a near tosup.

SORRY, NOT THIS TIME—John Francisco, KU's starting left-half and leading ground gainer against College of Pacific Saturday, pulls away from an unidentified Tiger tackler. Francisco gained 77 yards in 15 carries against the strong West Coast team.
Maglie, Ford To Pitch First World Series Game
By UNITED PRESS
NEW YORK—(UP)—Sal Maglic, the key factor in Brooklyn's last ditch pennant triumph, and Whitey Ford, the Yankees' clutch southpaw, were expected to draw the pitching assignment today for Wednesday's World Series opener at Ebbets field.
The first round of women's tennis and badminton tournaments has been extended to Wednesday. Miss Ruth Hoover, associate professor of physical education, asked women players to turn in the scores of their games.
Both managers, Walt Alston on the Dodgers and Casey Stengel of New York, indicated they would name their starting lineups after their clubs work out this morning.
Maglie, who won 13 games for the Dodgers after they obtained him from Cleveland last May for slightly over the waiver price of $10,000, said he "would be ready, if needed."
Women Tennis Scores Due
"I can do it all right, my arm feels fine." Maglie insisted.
But Alston felt that the 39-year-old right hander needed four days rest between starts. If he goes Wednesday, he will have had only three since he hutched the Dodgers to a 6-2 triumph over the Pirates on Saturday.
Alston reiterated that he wanted "To go with a guy who will keep the ball low."
The 16th modern Olympic games at Melbourne, Australia, are the 310th recorded Olympia games in the history of competitive athletics.
Unless he has a last minute change of heart, there seemed little doubt that Stengel would go with Ford, a 19-game winner.
If he decides to rest Maglie another day, he said he would start either Clem Labine, Roger Craig, or Carl Erskine, all right handers. He seemed to lean toward Labine, who beat Pittsburgh 3-1, on Saturday, meaning that his 27-game winner, Big Don Newcombe, would not get a shot at the American League champions, until the Friday game at Yankee Stadium.
"I guess it's pretty obvious I consider him my best and that he would be my opening game pitcher," Stengel said with a wink.
Final Warning For IM Teams
Beta took to the air to hand Phi Psi a 32-6 defeat yesterday on field five. Simpson passed to Newlin for the first touchdown of the game and Simpson booted the ball through the uprights for the extra point. Simpson completed three touchdown passes to Greenleaf, Lander, and Newlin in the third quarter. Landers kicked the extra point. A touchdown pass from Simpson to Landers completed the days scoring.
The passing combination of Rocky Leiker to Bill Amos accounted for 18 of the 24 points scored by Oread over Foster in an Independent A game. Steppe pitched out to Leiker for the remaining six that gave Oread a 26-0 victory.

This is the third and final warning. Intra murals are widely read on the campus and deserves good coverage, but KANSAN reporters need the help of the various houses.)
The ancient Olympics set aside two days for religious ceremonies.
MARKING ON THE CURVE...
AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT
Twonkey Crimscott was a professor. Choate'Sigafos was a sophomore. Twonkey Crimscott was keen, cold, brilliant. Choate Sigafos was loose, vague, adenoidal. Twonkey Crimscott believed in diligence, discipline, and marking on the curve. Choate Sigafos believed in elves, Jayne Mansfield, and thirteen hours sleep each night.
Yet there came a time when Twonkey Crimscott—mentor, sage, and savant—was thoroughly out-thought, out-foxed, out-maneuvered, out-ployed, and out-witted by Choate Sigafoos, sophmore.
It happened one day when Choate was at the library studying for one of Mr. Crimscott's exams in sociology. Mr. Crimscott's exams were murder -plain, flat murder. They consisted of one hundred questions, each question having four possible answers-A,B,C,and D.The trouble was that the four choices were so subtly shaded, so intricately worded, that students more clever by far than Choate Sigafoos were often set to gibbering.
So on this day Choeat sat in the library poring over his sociology text, his tiny brow furrowed with concentration, while all around him sat the other members of the sociology class, every one studying like crazy. "What a waste!" he thought. "All this youth, this verve, this bounce, chained to musty books in a musty library! We should be out singing and dancing and smooching and cutting didoes on the greensward!"
Then, suddenly, an absolute gasser of an idea hit Choate. "Listen!" he shouted to his classmates. "Tomorrow when we take the exam, let's all — every one of us — check Choice 'A' on every question — every one of them."
"Huh?" said his classmates.
"Mr. Crimscott marks on the curve. If we all check the same answers, then we all get the same score, and everybody in the class gets a 'C.'"
"Hmm," said his classmates.
"Let's get out of here and have a ball!" said Choate.
So they all ran out and lit Philip Morrises and had a ball, as, indeed, you will too when you light a Philip Morris, for if there ever was a cigarette to lift the spirit and gladden the heart, it is today's new Philip Morris—firm and pure and fragrant and filled with true, natural, golden tobacco, lip end to tip end.
... We should be out singing and dancing and smoothing
Well sir, the next morning the whole class did what Choate said and, sure enough, they all got "C's," and they picked Choate up and carried him on their shoulders and sang "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" and plied him with sweetmeats and Philip Morris and girls and put on buttons which said "I DOTE ON CHOATE."
But they were celebrating too soon. Because the next time shrewd old Mr. Crimscott gave them a test, he gave them only one question—to wit: write a 30,000 word essay on "Crime Does Not Pay."
$ \textcircled{C} \mathrm {M a x} $ Shulman,1956
"You and your ideas," they said to Choate and tore off his epaulets and broke his sword and drummed him out of the school. Today, a broken man, he earns a meager living as a camshaft in Toledo.
At the top of the curve of smoking pleasure, you'll find today's new Philip Morris. So, confidently, say the makers of Philip Morris, who bring you this column each week.
