It was perfect cross-country weather for the crowd of over 500, who had assembled in the Stadium to witch close to one-hundred competitors start and finish the gruelling test—the moat popular of the intra-mural sports. Placing next to the D.U.'s in team standing was the Kappa Sigma team, whose runners came in grouped around twentieth place. Behind the Kappa Sip in team order are Sigma Phi Delts and XI Omega. The dramatic Incident of the day waa suppUed by young Kenny Mcpherson, a student or the University KU1 High School, who on being granted permission to run in the race trained for a week and a half and ran third—Just "behind Lee and Davidson. There waa leas of a spread this year than last—the two and three- quarter-mUe teat run over quar- er of a minute faster than last year and waa made slightly tougher by reversing the route. Said Doug Lee aa he leaned against Bob Davidson for the Photographer "It was the toughest rave I ever ran." The race, organized by M. L. Van VUet and Harry Franklin, ran off vary smoothly. There wsa no confusion at either start or finish, a coral effect being made by hurdlea at the end of the course to make sure of correct order in taking results.

Varsity were determined to redeem themselves after their unimpressive debut last Saturday, and proceded to out-shoot, out-run, and out-pass the scrappy Fliers. "•Tomorrow night, they play the __________________________ feature game at V.A.C. gym when they take on Nate Singer's Stacy club. If they scuttle the Shoemen, they will be In the ooay position of having beaten every team in the league except Shores and wtil be solidly perched at the top of the league ladder. On the basis of Wednesday's dash, they should have Uttle trouble with Stacy's, as the latter club are rated no better than Lauries (another Varsity victim), by the five league coaches..... OAME CLOSER THAN SCORE The game last Wednesday wan considerably closer than the 53-30 score indicates. For three periods the Thunderbirds led the Air Force boys, but not by anything Uke tne huge margin they finished up with. The reason tor this is found in Coach M. L. Van Vliet's latest strategy which ls to divide his club Into two teams and play each team for half the game. The FUers had a hard enough time battling one Varsity team but to engage two of them, a fresh one every quarter, was a Uttle too much. After dropping behind 13-8 at the end of tiie first quarter, Air Force played on even terms with the CoUeglans for the next two periods, to go into the last canto behind 32-24. In this last session, the men of Mayers finaUy wilted under the .terrific pressure that they had sustained and vainly watched Varsity pour in 21 points to the FUers' 8. TWO COMPLETE SQUADS As mentioned above, Mr. Van VUet divided his boys into two squads. The first one of these (guards StUweU and Yorke, centre Bakken, and forwards Sykes and Hayward) played the first quarter and roUed up thirteen points to their opponents' six. The other five (guards Franklin and Johnson, centre Kermode, and forwards Barton and Robertson, came out for the second quarter and gathered six points to the Air Forces' Ave. The third session saw the return of the starting five who played on even terms with the Airmen, each side getting thirteen points. The fourth quarter completed the nosedive of the Fliers. It would be hard to pick the Individual star of the Thunderbirds. They ail played well, no man getting leas than three points. It the time ever comes, when Coach Van VUet has to pick five regulars, he wUl have no easy task. There wm only one-point difference between the points picked up by his two lines, Messrs. Franklin, Johnson, Kermode, Barton, and Robertson picking up twenty-seven points to the twenty-six gathered bj Stilwell, Yorke, Bakken, Sykes, and Hayward. e SHUTTLEWORTH TOPS There was no question as to who starred for the Air Force. Big Jim Shuttleworth received that honor with ridiculous ease. He sunk one-third ot the twenty-one field goals he attempted and converted four of his eight free shots. He was the one thorn in the Varsity flesh and Kermode and Bakken, who aren't exactly slouches, couldn't touch him. The rest of the Mayers' men weren't much problem to their Varsity cheeks, although they were dead game and hustled aU the way. • Here are the scores with pts meaning points, pf personal fouls, afg attempted field goals, cfg converted field goals, Afs attempted free shots, cfs converted b— shots.
