Already we have lost two out of our three first games played. This is as
many games as we lost the whole season last year == two out of 20¢ We will
lose ewmenel more games this year. The Oklahoma Aggie games were very similar
to our experience with Drake last year. We lost to Drake University of the same
conference later in December by about the same difference in points. But we
play these early season games for experiences

Our final goal, of course, is the Big Six Conference championship play
which starts January Tthe Personally, I would rather lose every pre-season
game on the schedule than to lose a Big Six championship gamee I do not look
for a very bright season this year so far as winning the championship of the
Big Six is concerned. However, it has been ten years since we have really had
* an bad season. Ten years ago we lost 15 out of 18 games playede

Perhaps due to the fact that Kansas has won championships the last few
years many experts are picking Kensas again this wali No team can lose an
uncomparable Pralle and a versatile Schmidt, the quarterback, without feeling
their losse The veberans on the Kansas ulate are not going welle The
sophomores are showing much promises We have been unable to find a man who
could spark the team as Pralle did last year, and we miss Schmidt's steadiness

Henry Iba's team at Stillwater is a good team this year, but any time a
Kansas team makes but 7 out of 20 free throws there is no need to look further
for the reason of the defeate From the field Kansas shot 65 times and hit 66
We beat ourselvese But these defeats are good things if analyzed intelligently.
Very few of the Kensas followers last year at the beginning of the season ex=
