-Features of Season Wichita comeback in football after a disastrous start is praised by Parke Carroll in the Journal-Post as he gives the Shockers an edge on the Southwestern -Builders this week and a good chance to tie for the Central title Carroll well known official "Somewhat less than one month ago greatly saddened about what was happening and what was likely to happen to Wichita the boys sat themselves down in a righteous glow and with a sob in every syllable wrote a number of very arresting passages about the outrage that had been visited upon Al Gebert that it matters but It'S about time to call in the outfielders on that one if not with the idea of making -amends at least to return what' taken That of course would be very generous but then it pays to be broad and such a warm impulsive nature would be the talk of Kansas Near Tie for Title "Briefly a lot of the newspaper boys were wrong about Wichita although at that Gebert was bright enough to pay them no heed which generally speaking is a good Idea He has taken the club that lost so convincingly to Fort Hays State and brought it along within one game of an assured tie for the Central conference championship is expected to win that one over Southwestern Friday night In Winfield "What happens then depends upon Pitt Gorillas who meet Hays November 14 and Emporia Teachers Thanksgiving All of those teams have a

Two Snap $350 Southern Teams and Princeton Still Hats': Excellent Chances for Nomination NOTRE DAME ON SPOT BY ALAN GOULD (Associated Press Editor) NEW YORK Not TAP) Notre Dame the people's choice for pigskin pre-eminence as well as the Rose Bowl and the laurel wreath may need a fresh supply of punts prayers and passes this Saturday No doubt Head Coach Elmer Lay-den has advised his young men to discard the dippings they have been collecting this week and concentrate on the job of besting Northwestern The loss of Andy Pilney Notre all-America candidate for backfleld honors makes the task no easier It seems Pilney will return to the football wars by the time the Irish play Army but this will not be so important if Northwestern is ndt disposed of in the meantime It requires Imagination rather than statistics to suggest North western has a chance to upset Notre this Saturday at South Bend The Irish should win any way you figure it but the Wildcats are in a fine spot to spring the big gest reversal Northwestern under Lynn coaching has been getting better each Saturday The team threw a Scare into Minnesota and licked Illinois in its last two starts It has nothing to lose and can shoot the works against Notre Dame whose best teams invariably have found the Wildcats tough to beat The rush to nominate Notre Dame and California for the Rose Bowl may prove to be premature elsewhere unbeaten Bears also are on the spot in their game against Huskies Washington was picked early this fall to top the Pacific coast list only to be knocked off by Stanford 6 to 0 Tbe Huskies are not only eager but well equipped to retaliate at expense They have a great running back in Byron Haines considered among the three or four best on the West coamt and a line likely to give the Bear

that Princeton should draw the top ranking over Notre Dame among the team until events ie1- at prove otherwise1 seems to have aroused considerable debate nothing strange or unexpected in this plenty of room for argument to continue and It need not be confined by any means to the Tigers and the Irish No one who has seen Princeton doubts it has the material and the power to match any team in the country Now that It has become oiled and pollshei nothing in the East to compare with it particularly in backfleld talent Only a handful of colleges in the Midwest South and Southwest can offer any zeal rebuttal in manpower The Tigers started to dick three weeks ago after a slow start They reached their peak In handing Navy the worst defeat any sailor team has absorbed since the gay nineties The East has not seen any such devastating display of power In big league competition since Knute lost Notre Dame team annihilated Pennsylvania by 60 to 20 at FTonUin field In 1930 So much for the Tigers whether or not you like them for the No I spqt at this stage at the proceedings Tills Notxv Dame team looks by all odds to be the greatest since that 1930 combination but no steamroller Aggressiveness and superb passing combined with fine spirit nd coaching have brought the team along Perhaps It could play a return match with Ohio State and win but ire happen to be among many observers of the battle at Columbus who doubt it The main thing Is that the Irish did meet their biggest test successfully Minnesota North Carolina tbe Southwest and the Pacific coast will have plenty to offer before any attempt at a final ranking is made The South is comparing this year's North Carolina powerhouse to Rose Bowl champions The Tarheels cannot be overlooked In any discussion of this winter's postseason prospects for New Sugar Bowl battle as well as Pasadenans festival on New day Game May Hinge on Lines Where Kansas Is Said to Have Great Strength SOME CLASSY ENDS By WII1TINEY MARTIN IAhocUM Pnu BUfC WKM) KANSAS CITY Nov F)It will hi line with mil the yielding qualities of a marble statute against a backfleld which must slow down to keep pace with a jackrabbit when Nebraska and Kansas meet at Lin- coin Saturday in a Big Six football game that has all the earmarks of a championship encounter Kansas has the line Nebraska has backfleld When they meet something is to happen Comparisons are misleading but certain facts stand' out which can not be overlooked in figuring the Kansans' chances against the Coro-huskers or vice versa That Nebraska has the best set of backs in the conference Virtually is conceded That Kansas has a better forward wall than Nebraska may not be conceded but is probable Nebraska has played four conference games and has scored 58 points The Jay hawks have played two conference games and nave scored 16 points However' the Kan-' sas goal line is uncrossed Two touchdowns have been scored against the Compuskers one of them more or less of a gift The 'Nebraska backfleld Lloyd Cardwell Jerry Lanoue Bam Francis and Henry Bauer or Johnny Howell is a high-geared combination liable to score against any team any time Kansas has some excellent backs in George Hapgood John Peterson and Red Harris but as a combination the Kansas back-field is' not generally rated to match the Nebraska quartet in power speed deception and precision Line Is Good From tackle to tackle the Kansas line appears to have an edge Nesmith McCall Phelps Sklar and Vogel spell bad news'for any ball carrier who comes their way The ends appear about equal with any slight edge going to Nebraska Be role Scherer was an all -conference wingman last year and Les McDonald was on the second team However in Rutherford Hayes and Wade Green Kansas has a classy pair of iwlngmen particUalrly on 1 The game looms as a great punting duel between Sam Francis and Kansas Fred Harris The Jayhawks kicker generally was conceded to he the best in the conference early in the season but Francis kicking in recent games has left little to he desired Decpltethe acknowledged rigidity of the Kansas defense the Corn-huskers eeefn to have the edge chiefly beeause their diversified offense combined with exceptional speed' enables them to out-trick the defense or run around it Only Kansas State could hold the Nebraskans scoreless and in the light of prior and subsequent developments that remains one of the unexplained mysteries There la little to choose in team spirit The Jayhawks with their real chance for a title since 1930 naturally are keyed to a high pitch of optimism1 However the Com-buskers fresh out of a title as a result of their defeat by Kansas 1 State' last year are no less eager In their desire to regain their lost laurels Tradition calls for Nebraska to hie doubly tough at home However Kansas won its last game from Nebraska at Lincoln That was in 1916 Showers Denies Any Interest in One Night Shows Declaring "Wichita wants only one amateur boxing tournament a

have' every jeason to feel highly elated at the success attained this year by the stables of the well-known local enthusiasts Moriarty and A Derby It has been many a long year since any Wichita stable came home from the races boasting of a record as Imposing as that established by these two well-known stables who were so capably handled by the clever reinsman and trainer Everett Osborne A final cheek on the active campaign by the candidates raced by Osborne shows that the various members won a grand total of no less than 30 races This showing ranks the stable well up with the top winners ct the year not only from the Mid West but in the entire country and also places Trainer Osborne' right up with the toil racer winning drivers of- the 1935 season for out of the nearly 1000 trainers who drove races the past season the number that won as many as 30 races constitutes a very small and sdect group 1 Digging down into the statistics of their campaign one finds that the members started in no less than 79 different races Of this number they won a total of 30 were second in 18 third in 18 fourth in live" won money but were unplaced in the final summaries In six and outside the money in the 79 races on but two occasions a record that must be considered far above the ordinary to say the least Notable Record The real significance of this showing is best seen when it is noticed that out of the 79 starts the stable members made that they were either first or second in no less than £8 Of them a record that very very few racing stables ever have attained Heading ths gran 9n Is test grand Martin 3 owned br Dr Ranch of Britton 8 who In 10 races was eight times a winner and twice second for the boat record mode bx any two-year -old pacer In the entire country for the IMS season Tho

no doubt But fix Colts races during the season took faster records thex being Jack Ekla Worthy Orattan ttlrcrdals 3:64 ft and Helr-at-Orattaji 3:06 and of these five two are Western owned as both Worthy Orattan and Heir-at-Orattan are both the property' Cf CfeosM of Tulsa Okie It also max bo said that of these five colt taking records faster than ths Wichita flUr they were all trained and
