Nov. University of Oklahoma Soonors kept in the running the Big Six conference football championship by sweating out a 27 to 13 victory over an out- manned but courageous Kansas college Wildcat team here today. The bruising contest, fought before S.OOO Parents' Day fans in ideal football weather, produced touchdowns and thrills in each quarter Only two penalties were assessed. against Oklahoma for off-sides on kick offs. Oklahoma's touchdowns, one in each quarter, came on two short bucks by halfback George Brewer, a -14-yard pass play from Barrel Royal to Jim Tyree, and a one-foot.

plunge by Wilbur Jones. In its 24th consecutive defeat. Kansas States scored on two spectacular pass plays. One came, in the first quarter on a pass from little Dana Atkins to end Clarence Branch. Branch counted the other Kansas State touchdown early in the fourth quarter on a pass from Harold Bryan.

Atkins Is Star Oklahoma turned a Kansas State fumble into a touchdown five minutes after the opening kick off. Sooner tackle Homer Paine recovered Bryan's bobble on the Kansas State 39-yard line and the Okla- hcmans needed seven plays for the score, Brewer slicing off tackle for the last two yards. Dave Wallace, the Sooners' ailing halfback, kicked the first of three points after touchdown. Atkins, 155-pound quarterback who stood cut as the greatest performer on the field today, ran back the following kickoff from his own 7-yard line to the Wildcats' 47. Atkins and Tom Chi 1st- opculos drove to the Sooner's 47.

Atkins threw a long pass to Branch who caught the ball 12- yards from the goal and scooted across. John Rapacz, Oklahoma's great center stopped another Kansas drive four-yards short of the goal by intercepting Atkins' pass, from there the Sooners moved to their second touchdown. Brewei got it from the four. Go To Air Oklahoma waited until the last two minutes of the third period to boost its lead to 21-6. Stopped on the ground.

Royal caught the Wildcats' secondary flat footed and shot a long pass to Tyree who caugTit the ball on the seventeen and scored standing. Wallace added his third and final point from placement. Early in the fourth quarter, the Wildcats had the ball on their own 45-yard line. Three flankers swept to the left and Atkins shot a pass across to Bryan who started back across the turf then passed to Branch in the open. Delbert Ehret kicked the point.

Oklahoma marched the next kickoff back for a touchdown, Jones scoring on fourth down from the one-foot line. Orangemen Take To The Air Brennan Stars As Irish Bid Army Adieu, 27 To 7 Nothing In Rules To Keep Girl Off Boys' Grid Team STINNETT, Nov. 8 A 120-pound girl will play right tackle for Stinnett high school next Friday and Coach Truman Johnson thinks she'll do all right. When, the girl, 16-year-old Frankie Groves, asked the privilege of performing for Stinnett at the line position, Coach Johnson was a little dubious. First, he wasn't sure what the rules said about it.

Next, he didn't know what her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Groves, would say. So he thumbed the Texas interscholastic league rule book and could find nothing that said a girl couldn't play football. Then he asked her parents and they declared if shcL wanted to play it would be air right with them.

Frankie, who thinks woman suffrage should include the masculine sports, says she has football all her life. She's only five feet, four inches tall but she's quite an athlete. Last year she played basketball on the school's girls team and liked it immensely but says right now it's the pigskin game that interests her. Tech Slate Clean With Navy Defeat BALTIMORE, Nov. 8 Georgia Tech cashed in on its one big opportunity in the fourth quarter today to pull out 16 to 14 victory over Navy's of ten-brilliant but just as often luckless football team on the muddy gridiron of Baltimore's municipal stadium.

The Yellow Jackets saved their undefeated-untied record when they recovered a Navy fumble and turned it into the winning touchdown on a long forward pass. It was Tech's seventh straight victory this season and perhaps the toughest as the two teams kept a crowd estimated at 35,000 on edge, throughout the game. Leading 14-9 and presumably playing safe in its own territory, Navy elected to try a wide encl run on a pitchout play. As Bob Schwoefferman swung wide, George Brodnax, Tech end, kled him so hard he shook him loose from the ball. Brodnax recovered it on the Navy 35.

Two plays later Jim Patton passed to Jimmy Southard on the five yard line and he galloped across with the winning touchdown. In the last analysis it was a field goal by Dinkey Bowen that gave Tech its winning points. Doubts European Dire Emergency CORTEZ, Nov. 6 (fl 5 Senator Hugh Butler, (r-Neb.) said in an interview here that Europe undoubtedly needs help, but "I doubt if a dire emergency exists." Butler asserted that "we should feed the starving -Indians in the southwest before attempting to feed Europe." The Nebraskan, who has been attending public lands committee hearings in the western states said these proved that "western water rcsouz'ces must be developed if we expect to feed the. growing population.

Our population is growing faster than the tilled lands." The special session of congress, called for Nov. 17, cut short the hearings. Butler, chairman of the public land was accompanied by Hugh Brown, chief clerk of the public lands committee, and former Kearney, newspaper owner. Scoring Combination Found By Iowa State DBS MOINES, Nov. 8 Iowa State's Cyclones, their power shackled for six straight games, broke loose today for a 366 victory over Drake.

Iowa State, twisting the Bulldog tail with increasing pressure as the game progressed, won the 47th renewal of the long series as it pleased to pile up the widest margin since Drake took the 1937 battle 30-0. The Cyclones scored their first touchdown on four plays from the Drake 34 yard line after five minutes of play. Thereafter it became a-Drake rout as the-hard- charging Iowa State linemen put the clamp on Drake offensive gestures and paved the path for their own ball carriers with vicious blocks. Iowa State was ahead 30-0 before Drake scored on a 71-yard march late in the game. The Cyclones, with three minutes to play, got that touchdown right back on the most exciting exhibition of the homecoming contest.

SOUTH BEND, Nov. 8 Notre Dame's undefeated fighting Irish bade a boisterous farewell to Army in their historic se- lies with' a crushing 27-7 victory as a shamrock-named lad, Terry i Brennan, personally humbled the' outclassed Cadets before a shivering record crowd of 59,171 at Notre Dame stadium today. The courageous Cadets were stunned by Brcnnan's 95 yard touchdown run with the opening kickoff and never regained their poise against the inspired Irish. The Irish opened the finale of this famed 34 year rivalry ap- parcntly set on gaining full meas- ure of revenge for the war time 59 to 0 and 48-0 plasterings by the Army. Cadets Score With a spanking new offensive attack which piled up 361 yards by rushing to Army's 168, the Irish shot their real wad in the first period with two touchdowns, both counted by Brennan and then pecked away for the other two touchdowns in each last two periods.

The Cadets, suffering their 23rd defeat against seven victories and four tics in the memorable series which started in 191,3, gained some small measure of consolation in scoring their only touchdown against a Frank Leahy-coached! team in five meetings. That came in the final period I when fullback Elwyn Rowan, a i gallant worker all of this frost- bitten afternoon, bulled over from the one yard line to cap a 56 yard Cadet march. Lujack Laterals The Irish threw everything but the goal posts at the Cadets in their march to their sixth straight victory. Brilliant quarterback Johnny Lujack flipped surprising new laterals and sent such Irish speedsters as Bob Livingstone and Larry Coutre, who scored the other two touchdowns, and Emil Sitko and Mike Swistowicz hammering through the Cadets for big' chunks of yardage. But the real big noise in the thunder the Irish shook down from their football was Terry Brennan, 19 year old 173 pound phantom from Milwaukee, Wis.

The Irish, who now have Northwestern, Tulane and Southern California remaining to hurdle in a charge to their second straight national crown, were in complete charge after Brennan followed his brilliant long run with a three yard slash for his second touchdown to cap an 80 yard Notre Dame scoring march. Mizzou Beats Duke 28 To 7 Biggest Score Ever Amassed Over Blue Devils. DURHAM. N. C.

Nov. 8 Missouri put on its high-flying Big Six scoring act today and spoiled Duke's homecoming; day celebration, 28-7, before a crowd of more than 25,000. It was the largest number of points any foe has ever foiled up against a Wallace Wade-coached Duke eleven. Previous high game in 1931 with a 25-2 loss to Tennessee. Slow Start Coach Don Faurot's split-T circus, opened slowly and did not score in the first quarter, but after that tallied twice in the second, and cnce in each of the last-half quarters.

There was a marked superiority by the Mid-westerners in net yartla rushing, 302 to 93 yards. Missouri made good six of 18 passes for a net yardage of 72; Duke, nine of 14 for 78. Duke was superior in punting with an average of 50.7 to 29.9. After five minutes of the second quarter the Tiger show began with a 34-yard drive. Dick Braznell, turned left end for 19 yards, and Nick Carras took a handofff over left guard to the Duke 12.

Wilbur Volz carried to the five, and then Carras smashed over center for a touchdown. Bob Dawson made good on the first of ris-four points after touchdown. Duke immediately marched back up the field for 80 yards and its only score. With George Clark running outside tackle and Fullback Paul Stcphanz, spinning nicely, the Blue Devils moved to the 14-yard line. Nere Clark rolled his own light end behind excellent blocking for a touchdown.

Steph- enz, placekicked the point. But here the Tigers put on the act which took the heart out of the Blue Devils by scoring in five plays. Quarterback Hal Entsminger and Howard Bonnett were the ringleaders in the drive. With the ball on the Duke eight, Entsminger, faking neatly as if to run his own right end, rifled a lateral r.c Bonnet who went over standing up. United Nations industries used about 11 short tons of industrial diamonds between 1939 and, 1944.
