Around the Big Eight

Head KU basketball coach, Ted Owens, has said, "this year's squad is younger and less experienced than last year's, but the boys have just as much physical equipment as last year's players had."
On the Jayhawk basketball roster this year are seven sophomores, three juniors and three seniors.

Saturday's loss to Oklahoma State ended KU's seven year consecutive victory string against the Cowboys. Before the 10-7 loss, the Jayhawks had a 19-5 series record against Oklahoma State. In the overall series 11 games have been decided by a victory margin of one touchdown or less.

It looks as if Walt Wesley, KU's all-America basketball player of last year, has a definite chance as the starting center for the Cincinnati Royals. The Royals' regular center of last season, Wayne Embry, has been traded to Boston and the Royals' other postman, Connie Dierking, is not considered as much an offensive threat as Wesley. Cincinnati coach Jack McMahon says Wesley will be a good pro when he gains
a little experience and a little weight.
"We're playing a defense of movement," says Oklahoma defensive tackle Jim Riley. "Everything is quicker, quicker, quicker."
Things were quicker for the Sooners last Saturday—mostly Notre Dame touchdowns.
Laws, Ellsworth blank opponents
In Independent A football Tuesday shutouts were the rule as the Laws blasted Pharmacy 37-0, and Ellsworth beat Templin 6-0. Joseph R. Pearson forfeited to McCollum.
NROTC defeated the Exrucuiators 25-0 in Independent B football action.
The Fraternity B results were:
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, 33, Pi Kappa Alpha, 13; Sigma Nu #2, 6;
Sigma Phi Epsilon, 0; and Beta #1, 14, Phi Kappa Psi, 7.

Here are 7 knotty problems facing the Air Force: can you help us solve one?
1. Repairs in space. If something goes wrong with a vehicle in orbit, how can it be fixed? Answers must be found, if large-scale space operations are to become a reality. For this and other assignments Air Force scientists and engineers will be called on to answer in the next few years, we need the best brains available.
2. Lunar landing. The
2. Lunar landing. It exact composition of the lunar surface, as well as structural and propulsion characteristics of the space vehicle, enter into
this problem. Important study remains to be done—and, as an Air Force officer, you could be the one to do it!
3. Life-support biology. The filling of metabolic needs over very extended periods of time in space is one of the most
fascinating subjects that Air Force scientists are investigating. The results promise to have vital ramifications for our life on earth, as well as in outer space.
4. Space orientation. The orbital problems of a spacecraft, including its ability to moneuve over selected points on the earth, are of vital importance to the military utilization of space. There are plenty of assignments for young Air Force physicists in this area.
5. Synergetic plane changing. The ability of a spacecraft to change altitude can also be crucial to space operations. Where but in the Air Force could Sc.B.'s get the chance to work on such fascinating projects right at the start of their careers?
6. Space propulsion. As our space flights cover greater and greater distances, propulsion—more than anything else will become the limiting factor. New fuels and new propulsion techniques must be found, if we are to keep on exploring the mysteries of space. And it may well be an Air Force scientist on his first assignment who makes the big breakthrough!
7. Pilot performance.
Important tests must still be made to determine how the pilots of manned aerospacecraft will react to long periods away from the earth. Of course not every new Air
comes involved in research and development right away. But where the most ex-
cliting advances are taking place, young Air Force scientists, administrators, pilots, and engineers are on the scene.
A good way to start is through Air Force ROTC. Superior students may qualify for Air Force scholarships. Many colleges and universities also have a special 2-year Air Force ROTC program. For details, contact your nearest Air Force representation, or mail the coupon today.
