Be eees of Soowcren! and Great
_ Freshman Squad Make Outlook Rosy
on Mt. Oread.

 

By PARKE

Kansas. goes on the spot against Nebraska Saturday night in Lincoln
and if those young roosters from Mt. Oread survive it may be the start,
| of another victory march that won't stop until ‘old. age catches up with a
‘bunch of kids now shaving only the first and fifteenth of every month.

While most of the conference has been gazing pensively out the
window at six K, U, lettermen and sympathizing with the Jayhawkers
cf next year when sophomores mature at Missouri, Oklahoma and Iowa
State, Kansas: slipped: in young» replacements and is set for at least

three years ahead.

Fred Pralle, guard, arid Sylvester Schmidt, center, will be the paly
men graduated from this year’s®

regular group. Four of the party
‘of thirteen are juniors and seven
sophomores. The freshman squad
is the greatest.in a decade with
Howard Engelman of Arkansas City
and Ralph Miller of Chanute ready
to step in as regulars the day they
become eligible. Bob Allen, son of
the Kansas coach, is a better pros-
pect than his brother, “Mit,” who

squads a few years back. Steve
Renko of Wyandotte and Bill Bun-
sen. of Shawnee-Mission, big and
active, would be welcomed by virtu-
ally any other squad in the league
but they will have a hard time let-
tering next winter.

-“Doc” Allen has been coaching
for 27 years. He has won 19 cham-
pionships and tied for two. Since
1929 in the Big Six conference he
has been out of the money only
once, gained: five titles, tied with
Nebraska last year and finished sec-
ond twice. .If he wins remaining
games from Nebraska and Missouri
it may be a long time betore the
string is interrupted.
Power Next Year.

Schmidt, this letter nucleus met be

available next winter:
