Oklahoma BIost Wrecks Kansas NORMAN, Okla, Nov. l. Oklahoma. a gathering football storm in the Big Six Conference, blew down Kansas, 38 to 0 before 1000 fans today in its first impressive display of power aground and lightning by air. Indian Jack Jacobs, who last week upset unbeaten Santa Clara with his passing and kicking, passed to Oklahoma’s first touch down in the opening period, then showed his greatest display of power running in the final period when the Sooners plowed over for two more counters. In the meantime he scored himself in the second period and passed to another score a few minutes later.
