University of Arkansas alumni,
who no longer can stand the strain
of watching Razorback backfiekl
men pass from inside their own
20 yard line, want the Arkansas
legislature to save them from
apoplexy.
The Arkansas Gazette reports
that "a powerful lobby" of gradu
ates haa been formed to force
passage of a state law making it
illegal for Arkansas teams to pass
from within the danger zone. Fines
of S5 to $25 would bo Imposed on
the quarterback and head coach
for each Infraction, scaled accord
ing to the outcome of the illegal
venture.
Tch! Tch! what would the re
ward be for completions, touch
downs, etc., resulting from these
Illegal ventures?
DePaul university, whose bas
ketball team will appear here
toward the close of the home sea
son, is having only mediocre suc
cess on the court. Iowa, Purdue
and Santa Clara arc among those
teams that have licked the Blue
Demons, while Penn State fell be
fore the DePaulians last week.
The DePaulia, student paper at
xne scnool, recently published a
score chart, showing what future
DePaul opponents were doing on

Sophomore guard who dumped In
eight field goals against K. U. the
other night, is one of slickest play
ers In the circuit. He scored 19
points against Southern Methodist
in an early season game, and al
tho he hasnt pulled a Lusctti yet,
he bids fair to be among the top
ten scorers In the conference by
the end of the season.
At the Jayhawk-Wildcat game
last night, halftime entertainment
was provided by an adagio dance
group, sponsored by the K. U.'s
department of physical education.
Iowa State is sending a full

four minor letter winners from
last year will be with the 10 or 11
men traveling to Omaha Saturday.
Intramural basketball won't

look forward to adding that crown
to their interfrat achievements.

Methlnks that maybe the Sig
Nui and the Fiji will meet in
the finals In a game that will be
at good as a varsity game...
only because it will be free of
course.
Brock and Scherer for the
Fijis should be a couple hard to
stop, together with the other Phi
Gam skyscrapers. Steeves, Wolf,
Campbell and perhaps Bus
Knight will toss for the Sig Nus,
and should play a "Jackson
high" style of basketball.

Bill Anahu, Hawaiian end of Santa
Clara., was invited to participate.
But William is a junior, so lust

play next year, but that he wanted
to finish out his college competi
tion, so will refrain this year.
