Football Not To
Blame For Death
Of Wisconsin Boy
Chicago, Nov. 14. flJ.R) Nei
ther the game of football, its
players, Its rules nor its equip
ment, can be blamed for the un
fortunate death of Allen Shafer,
17-year-old University of Wis
consin football player, Ma. John
L. Griffith, Big Ten athletic
commissioner, said today as he
prepared to leave for Madison,
Wis., to attend Shafer's funeral.
Commenting on the death of
Shafer, who received a fatal In
Jury In Saturday's Wisconsin
Iowa game, Griffith said that
"his age was not a factor In his
Injury, but it was an unfortu
nate accident which cannot be
traced to the participation of 17
and 18-year-olds In collegiate
varsity football.
"Boys of the same age, 17 and
18, are fighting for our country
and the reason we are doing so
well on the battlefields Is that
these young boys can take it and
give it better than the older
men," he continued.
WAR BOND SALE URGED
FOR ARMY-NAVY GAME
New York. Nov. 14 (U.PJ
Ray McCarthy, director of foot
ball at Yankee Stadium and the
Polo Grounds, today advanced a
suggestion to make the Army
Navy football game a success
from' the standpoint of selling
war bonds, even though the
powers that be in Washington'
fail to sanction transfer of the
game from the comparative ob
scurity of Annapolis, Md., to
New York or Philadelphia.
McCarthy wired the treas
ury department, which has re
quested transfer of the game
so that the sale ot war bonds
could be stimulated by selling
them for admission to the con
test, urging that every person
who listens to the radio broad
cast of the game pledge them
selves to buy bond, '

SPOIL RECORD OF
MIDWEST LEAGUE
By Bam Smith
(UP Staff Correspondent)
Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 14.
(U.PJ Because of the kicking toe
of big Jim Kekerls, the veteran
Missouri tackle, the winner of
the Big Six conference flag chase
this season will have no perfect
record. v
Big Jim stepped up wlthVhe
clock ticking off the last 30 sec
onds of the Missouri-Oklahoma
game at Norman Saturday and
spun the football through a gusty
high wind and square between
the uprights to give his mates a
2141 tie with Oklahoma and
thus blot but not damage too
seriously the Sooner escutcheon.
Four Kickers
That brings us to the point of
a worthwhile discussion, polnt-
after-touchdown kicking. Mis
souri with its Jim Kekerls has
no one-sided claim to this art
in the midlands circuit this year
There are four yes, count 'em
dead-eye boys who can be count
ed upon about 98 per cent of the
time to ring the one-point bell.
Kekerls and Dub Wooten, -the
veteran Oklahoma end, matched
toes at Norman and each had a
perfect day. The three kicks by
Wooten brought his season's total
to 19. Kekerls, three made him
16 for the year to date.
Iowa Man Tops
But the top man cf the quar
tet was Meredith Warner, the
Iowa State back. 7arnt'r kick
ed one in the Nebraska same to
make him a 20-point man in that
department. Fourth place in the
standings was Bill Chestnut, who
drop kicks, rather than using the
placement approach. Bill has
been good for 14 so far, limited
more by his team's shortage of
touchdowns than an innacurate
toe.
Twice this year Missouri has
called upon Kekerls and his toe
after ball luggers scored to tie
the top navy-staffed teams of
Oklahoma and Iowa State in the
midland circflit. Each time Ke
kerls bas been good for three-for-three.
That, partner, Is kicking under
pressure.
GUN CLUB PLANS
