Another intramural tournament
went by the board when the WAA
was forced to abandon the bowling
tournament because of the short
age of pin boys at the bowling
alleys. It seems that war jobs
are more attractive to the pin boys,
so we'll have to do without a
bowling tournament for the dura
tion. First round table tennis matches
are being played off this week.
The tournament is planned so that
if one round is completed each
week, it should be finished before
the Christmas vacation.
Nebraska ball practices have
been going on .this week. The

Kenfield went on a quarter sneak
around end to the 1 yard line.
Nebraska nearly lost the ball on
the next play when Kenfield
fumbled, but recovered on the 3.
With the fourth down coming and
three to go, Kenfield called upon
Big Buzz Hollins to deliver, which
he did with a straight buck into
the middle, that cracked the Kan
sas State forward wall, as he went
over to score. Ellyson missed the
conversion, and the score stood at
Nebraska 13, Kansas State 7.
The remainder of the first half
was more-or-less a see-saw affair,
the only scoring threat appearing,
when Gus Eager took a short punt,
eluded several would be tacklers
and went about 40 yards to score,
only to have the play called back
on another roughing penalty.
Slow Half.
The second half, although slow,
saw both teams rolling up plenty
of yardage on the ground, and then
when getting down into scoring
territory, attempting to score, on
passes, only to lose the ball to
the opponents. Nebraska defin
itely had a better time of it,
though, as the yard stick shows,
and missed two more scoring
chances than did the Wildcats.
Twice, men were standing in the
end zone awaiting passes, only to
drop them, and muff the score.
Kansas State made a valiant
effort to overtake the slim margin
held by the Huskers, and it was
only through the fine line play of
Bill Hill and Jerry Jacupka that
the Scarlet thwarted the hard
charging bids of Baton and Macon.

The two teams didn't meet in the

the D. G.'s want to show the Tri

they have this year.

Squad Cut to 23
AMES. Ia.. Nov. 6. The Iowa
State college varsity basketball
squad has now been cut to 23
players and drills have gotten
under way in earnest for the first
games in December.
As a nucleus for his 1943-44
team, Coach Louis Menze has
three major letter winners from
last year's squad, all of whom are
stationed here as members of the
college navy V-12 unit. They are
Ray Wehde of Hoistem, leading
Cyclone scorer last year, and his
twin brother, Koy, and uene uui
man of Mason City, defensive re

Another major letter winner
from last vear Charles Gradoville
of Fort Lyon, Colo., completed his
V-12 training here Saturday and
was transferred to another navy
station. The only other man rrom
last year's squad who is now out

Notre Dame
Licks Army
Striking like greased lightning,
the Fiehtin' ' Irish of Notre Dame
combined a crushing ground and
aerial attack to score in the first
four minutes of the Army game
at Yankee Stadium in New York.
The remainder of the first half,
the gallant Army team held off
the Irish, and threatened twice
themselves, only to lose their
golden opportunities through
fumbles.
It was the brilliant passing Lu-
jack that accounted for the first
tally of the Irish, and sparked the
surprising 26 to 0 defeat that No
tre Dame handed the Army.
After being held 6 to 0 for the
first half, Frank Leahy's green
clad wonders, came back Impress
ively to show the 70,000 or 80,000
fans that they were probably the
greatest team that the Irish, or
anyone else for that matter, ever
had. Taking advantage of every
scoring possibility, the Irish
smashed, passed, and outplayed
the Army boys all over the field
in the second half, and shortly be
fore the final gun, they pushed
across a last tally just for good
measure, to make the score

ATOs Win
Football
In one of the finest exhibitions
of football during the current
intermural football season, the
ATO's outpointed a stubborn Sig
Chi outfit 12-2 for the intra
mural football championship.
The game began with both
teams showing flashes of scoring;
power. The ATO's found pay
dirt first as Jim Nicola shot
bullet pass to Korf, who took the
ball on the Sig' Chi 25 and raced
the remaining distance for the
score.
The next Tau touchdown came
shortly after the kickoff, as
Dvorak shot a long pass to Jean
Puntzen, who stepped across the
last white stripe for the second .
tally. In a short time the half
ended with the ATO's still lead
ing 12-0.
' The second half proved to be a
seesaw affair with the Sig Chi's
marking up the only tally in a
safety that came late in that pe
riod. Martz, Kearney and Bell
did plenty to aid the Sig Chi
cause, while Nicola, Dvorak, Punt
zen and Korf were carrying the
majority of the ATO load.
More Games Likely.
The game completed the intra
mural schedule. However, "chal
lenge games" will probably be
played in the near future. Other
intramural events are being
planned by the intramural man
agers. Schedules will be announced
later.

and at the same time that they
may assist the transportation
lines to make proper provisions
for carrying for student travel
during the holidays.
Students are reminded that
the Christmas vacation begins
on Wednesday morning, De
