KANSAS CITY, Nov. 1O-Coach
Dewey Luster and his University OF
Oklahoma fcotballers will be anx-
iously studying the health chart on
Missouri's Bob Steuber this week
and every reported Steuber ailment
will be fresh cause for alarm.
All last week the Steuber stories
were bluer than a private assigned
to K. P. duty on payday. The i'm
preston was that if he could locate
all his arms and legs in time for the
Nebraska game he would drop in,
probably as a spectator, for the
show.
Wounded Steuber Is Tough.
Despite shoulder that was only
about halfway repaired. Steuber
hung around for 33 minutes playing
time at Lincoln, long enough to
score a couple of touchdoWns and
decorate an offense that rolled up
1854 yards through better than fair
Nebraska line.
Apparently wounded Steuber Is
harder to handle than a we'll one.
The Tigers seem to lose couple
of players every week. This time 1t
is Center Jack Keith and End Jack
Lister who are out, both with broken
arms.
All other players injured in that
26-6 victory over Nebraska are ex-
pected to recover in time to play
against Oklahoma in Norman Sat-
urday.
One Other Loop Game.
There will be one other conference
game this week. Kansas, which
each week is finding new muscles,
and how to use them, goes to Iowa
State. A victory of the Jayhawkers
would assure them of fourth place
in the Big Six, not bad showing
for a team which started the sea-
son with 61-0 hammering by the
Iowa Seahawks.
Nebraska goes east to play Pitts
burgh and Kansas State meets In
diana. Neither is expected to have
much fun. particularly Kansas State,
whose only consolation after seven
consecutive lickings is that the sea-
son ends November %.

fans will have to wait at least an
other month to get an answer to
the question of who will manage the
Detroit Tigers next year.
General Manager Jack Zeller,
back at his desk at Briggs Stadium
today after a months vacation,
brushed aside all talk that Del
Baker would be succeeded by Steve
O'Neill or any one else. In the first
place he wouldn't say whether
Baker will leave at all.

ONeill, former major league
catcher and former manager of the
Cleveland Indians, piloted the
Beaumont farm club to the Texas
League pennant last summer, and
many insiders believe his reward
will be another chance in the big
show as Bakers successor.
