KANSAS
Beware Buskers! Jayhawks
pick Oklahoma
The 27-7 walloping that Okla
homa gave the Jayhawkers left
your Roving Reporter stunned. He
thought that Kansas was favored
to win the Big Six crown this year.
With his faith shattered, he
sought the answer to the question
uppermost in his cerebric cavity:
"Who will win the Big Six, and
why?"
Joe Zishka, the first man to be
approached concerning gridiron
capers, replied thusly: "All I know
is what I see in the papers, but
I think Oklahoma will take the
title. Nebraska might possibly up
set them." Oren aptist had a sim
ilar opinion. "Nebraska is strong,
but I'd sooner pick the Sooners."
Dean Rogers likes the Cornhusk
ers. "Nebraska over Oklahoma,"
he said. Wayne Brunton said, "Ok
lahoma, because of their strong
line."
By this time, your reporter was
getting discouraged. He spent last
Saturday afternoon listening to the
K-State-Mizzou game and thought
h- really heard a ball game. But
so far, no one has even considered
either team.
Luther Buchele was very much
undecided aa to who would win
and why. His answer was, "I
don't know, and I don't know
why." And come to think of it,
that is a good answer. At leajt,
he didn't pick the wrong team.
Jim Bell penned the following:
"The Sooners will win In a breeze.
They are too far above Big Six
calibre this year."
" lary Lou Randall thought for a
moment be'ore replying, "I don't
think, I know Oklahoma will win.
Mary Schultes was likewise on
the Sooner bandwagon. "Okla
homa, they're the best in the west
by test," she said. Mary Garrison
has the following impression of
Oklahoma: "They've got a big,
smashing line that mows down
their opponents."
Clyde Singer went out on a
limb, or so he said. "I pick Mis
souri, because I like an underdog.
Oklahoma should win, but Paul
Christman, with a little luck, could
de-spoke the Sooner covered
wagon."
Ralph Kingsland replied, "Okla
homa. Their big line is too much
for the other Big Six teams."
And that's that. Apparently,
university men and women believe
that the first team to defeat Kan
sas in conference play will win the
rhmninnsliin. Your Roving Re
porter, the copy-cat, also picks
Oklahoma, wun me wiusuuu
gers having the best chance for an
I upset. Kansas State is strong and
will be in there pitching all the
imp. Nebraska, in spite of her
on.n win over miahty Baylor,
doesn't seem to be popular. But
there are bound to be upsets.

Three ages of man . . .
milk to whisky
Milk bottle, coke bottle, and
whiskey bottle are the three stages
in the development of ordinary
man.
The fortunate students in the
drawing classes of the art depart
ment substitute scotch and cham
pagne bottles for their whiskey
bottles.
Of course their only interest in
these bottles is in drawing them,
but it's nice to think about any
way. When the art student starts
out and is asked to draw milk
bottles, life looks pretty drear,
when he is advanced to coke bot
tle drawing, the outlook is some
what improved, and when the
peak in bottle design scotch and
champagne bottles is reached, the
student is beside himself in glee.
Then he finds that after some
time of drawing intriguing bev
erage bottles, he will be allowed
to draw nudes. Who wouldn't like
a small amount of that? A long
term of it would be too trying on
the nerves.
Drawing bottles and nudes isn't
the only thing done in this amaz
ing place, though. A visit to the

"Neither," he answered softly.

. '. McEvoy compares . . .
story to rabbit
"All forms of writing are basic
ally the same," Joseph P. McEvoy,
writer for the Saturday Evening
Post, Hollywood, radio, and the
author of numerous books, said in
an Informal discussion to the stu
dents of Phillips Russell's creative
writing class and visitors yester
day. A person who begins to write a
story, should have something to
say or not try to write at all, Mc
Evoy stressed.
"A story is like a rabbit running
for Its life, with the audience as
the dogs," he continued. "The
rabbit doesn't run in a straight
line, neither does a story. Finally
the rabbit comes to a stone wall
that it can't get around. This is
the climax In the story. How the
rabbit gets away," McEvoy said,
adding, "is the situation that gets
the audience."
The climax often bluffs the
"Unless we play better football
than we have been playing there is
little prospect of our winning an
other game this season."
This is Bernie Bierman's glum
outlook for Minnesota's football
squad as he spoke to more than
500 quarterbacks at their weekly
Wednesday bundle in the Union.
"We are going to meet at ileast
two teams that are stronger than
Ohio State Northwestern and
Michigan," said Bierman. "Iowa
and Wisconsin aren't far behind.
"Last Saturday our boys had the
fighting spirit, but the Ohio State
team was much more alert and
faster. Yet from the physical an
gle, our team played a swell game.
The speed and alertness our team
lacks are essentials that must be
developed."
Commenting on the officials at
Saturday's game, Bierman said,
"The officials weren't deliberately
dishonest, but were lax and wiry
Inefficient. They seemed to be the
only disinterested spectators in the
whole stadium."

'Free ittie fiddles' . . .
lose their privacy
Even the private lives of fish
are invaded these days. When
spawning time comes around and
a young fish's fancy lightly turns
to thoughts of setting down to a
home, members of fisheries field
classes look in on mama and papa
fiddie.
A special course offered bien
nially by Dr. Lauren Donaldson,
Instructor of fisheries, concen
trating its field work on watching
the spawning of red fish and sil
ver salmon, measuring water con
ditions, and noting the progress of
young fish.
Favorite haunts of the class
members are several small and se
cluded creeks which feed into
Lake Washington. An old "fishln'
hole" tucked away in the woods
may find class members perched
on the shore, notebook and pencil
at hand taking minute observa
tions. All kinds of technical con
ditions must be taken Into
consideration; water heights, tem
peratures, and places where the
fish build their nests.
Only two or three "show places"
for observing the spawning are
accessible for field courses since
farmers have been cleaning up
some of the old swampy stamping
grounds. Of the most popular is

Saunders is still in his twenties
himself, yet he refers to college
students as "kids." They make
interesting subjects, according to
him.

relate, want to know about grades,

Evoy said. The only difference In
the two are that the writer has
months to work out the solution
while the audience has only a few
minutes.
"What you have to say will dic
tate the form the story will take,"
McEvoy said, when asked In what
style the story should be written.
"Style is a natural and steady
growth," he added.
When one writes, McEvoy con
tinued, he ought to be able to close
his eyes and visualize the charac
ters as they appear in the story,
then they are alive.
The writer must learn to "look
at things and see them," he pointed
out, "and listen to people and hear
them." Why do people say the
things they say; what is behind
their statements; do they mean
what they say, and numerous other
little points that seem unimport
ant, McEvoy added; first find out
what makes people tick.
