PAGE SIX How Destroyer Boric Fought Nazi Sub to Death Too Many Wives K. U. Loses Turkey Day Tilt 22 to 7 Junction City, Nov. 26. (AP) Kansas Universitys passing attack provided plenty of thrills but not enough points and the.

Fort Riley CRTC team took the Thanksgiving day football tilt 22 to 7. With Bob George doing the passing and Charles Moffett most of the receiving, Kansas completed 20 of 40 attempted passes and held the interest of 4,000 fans. The soldiers, mid-wTestem service champs, had too much power in their forward wall and stymied Kansas ground attack. They had the offensive most of the first half and punched over two touchdowns which, plus a safety, gave them a 16 to 0 halftime lead. Kansas played on even terms the second half, holding the Cen-tuars to one touchdown and scoring one of their own.

The Kansas tally was set up by a 30-yard pass, George to Kelleher, which carried to the one foot line. George went over on the second play. For the soldiers. Caywood scored two touchdowns hnd passed to Ford for the third. (V.

S. Navy Sketch From NEA Drama of the death fight between a U. S. destroyer and a Nazi submarine is captured in this drawing by Coast Guard Combat Artist Hunter Wood. Just after the destroyer Borie rammed the surfaced sub, a searchlight is played on the U-boats conning tower and seamen on the U.

S. vessels deck begin firing at the enemy wiih deck guns and rifles. Dead on the deck of the submarine lies a German hit by a knife thrown by a Borie seaman, while Nazi in searchlight beam has been hit by empty shell case. Both vessels were sunk in the encounter. Arraigned on two counts of bigamy in Kansas City, city court, Thomas Robertson, whose stated age of 17 is being questioned, offers virtually no explanation as to why he married three different young girls within four months, not taking time to sever legal ties between marriages.

AP) Unbeaten Tulsa's hopes for a bowl Invitation grew dimmer today despite yesterday's crushing 61-0 conquest of Arkansas that marked the Golden Hurricane as the leading southwest football power.

Signing of the Texas Aggies, who had Just lost to Texas, to place thrice-beaten Louisiana State in the Orange Bowl was a big surprise to Tulsa fans and eliminated what had been regarded as a bright opportunity for the Hurricane. That left only two spots open in the Cotton and Sugar bowls but the Texas Longhorns, host team in the Cotton Bowl, were said to be opposed to inviting Tulsa. The Hurricane's chances of going to the Sugar Bowl for the second straight year apparently hinged on the outcome of Saturdays game between Southwest Louisiana Institute and Randolph Field. Reports from New Orleans indicated that if S. L.

I. was able to fashion a decisive victory over the Ramblers, it would be invited to play Georgia Tech in the Sugar Bowl. Otherwise, the bid likely would go to Tulsa. Henry Frnka, the coach who made little Tulsa a bowl name by winning Sun and Sugar Bowl invitations in ills first two years with Hurricane, said weve finished an undefeated season and if the bowl committees want us, were available. We cant write our own invitations." Ottawa Youth Council Sponsors Ottawa Teens Topeka, Nov.

The government would appropriate sums equivalent to the employer and employee tax contribution. Many Not Covered Before Wagner said that only about half the men in service are covered by existing state unemployment insurance programs, because they were engaged in farming or other excluded occupations, and that even those covered piobably would find the payments inadequate.

He cited that a majority of the states pay a maximum of $15 a week and that the minimum goes below $5 in nine states. May's bill, which the Kentuckian said had the backing of the White House, calks for payment of a maximum of $300 to those who have been on active duty six months or longer. Men who have served less than six months but more than four months would receive $200 while those with less than four months service would get $100. The first $100 due would be payable immediately upon discharge or relief from active duty. The balance, if any, would be paid in two equal monthly installments.

Men discharged or relieved since December 7. 1941, and no longer in service would be paid their mustering out compensation one month after enactment of the legislation. The legislation provides for payments to the surviving widow, minor children, or parents of men who die before receiving their pay. Veterans of the last war received mustering out pay of $50, which was deducted from bonuses provided subsequently by congress. The 'bonuses were calculated at the rate of $1 for each day of domestic service and $1.25 for each day of foreign duty.

The average bonus was less than $1,000. Committee members said they believed no bonus legislation would be necessary after this war because of increased allotments now paid to dependents, higher pension rates, more liberal mustering out pay, and projected unemployment compensation.
