Jayhawkers Prepare For Battle With K-State
After narrowly escaping defeat at the hands of two definitely weaker teams, the Jayhawkers have returned to the confines of Robinson gym to recoup their forces for the Kansas State battle at Manhattan Jan. 26.
No regular drills were held Tuesday and none are scheduled until Friday. The layoff is forced by finals.
Coach Phog Allen intends to continue drilling the squad on all phases of the game. The Jayhawkers fell off in the free throw department against Nebraska as they dropped in only 13 of 22 but they proved to be the victory margin. KU went in the game as the nation's third proficient free throwers with a 72 per cent average.
The Kansans seem to have been spent since romping over Oklahoma here Jan. 5. Since then the team has stubbed its toe against Missouri and Nebraska on a tiring and near-disastrous road trip.
The journey proved to be a grind for the Jayhawkers who went into the tussles as AP's pick of the nation's best team. The games came after a week's absence from competition and both opponents were fired-up for the all-victorious Jayhawkers.
Coach Allen feels that the team was too intent upon preserving its perfect record and not focusing its efforts enough upon the individual victory.
"Instead of playing to win, the boys played to keep from being beaten. They are conscious of their winning streak and subconsciously are becoming defensive minded instead of rising to an offensive pitch." Coach Allen said. "I don't think it will affect the K-State game."
Bill Lienhard, who has been slightly bothered with an injured groin muscle, saw considerable action at NU and should be at full strength against the Wildcats.
JIM IVERSON. 5-foot 10-inch senior, is K-Stater's second highest scorer with 172 points. He canned 15 games and led the Wildeo's latest victory.
Cap'n Fearless Fraley Finds Crucial Housing Shortage
New York—U (P. U.) - Florida hotel rooms usually are at a premium but old Cap'n Fearless, the poor man's Moby Dick, didn't know until after a trip to the National Motor Boat show today, mates, just how crucial is the Southland's cabana crisis.
One gent has spent $71,450 just to put a roof over his head for the baseball training season.

Tonight's CIC baseketball feature throwing together Washburn and St. Benedict's at Atchison will spoil one of the loop's two unblemished records.
Washburn is 3-0 in the conference and 6-5 for the year, while St. Benedict's Ravens have an excellent 7-1 record for the season and a victory in their only CIC game. Betting on either club tonight would be shaky.
The CIC has come up with several good teams this year, besides the Ichabods and the Ravens. Fort Hays State can show a 10-3 figure for its work to date, though it is only $ \frac{1}{2} $ in the league. And Southwestern of Winfield has won seven of its 10 starts and in CIC play is 2-1.
At Emporia State, the situation is different. The Hornets are green and the going has been rugged for them. Int eight starts they have los seven times, including twice in the conference. Pittsburg State's Gorillas have a 6-5 mark for the year and 0-2 in the CIC.
Hays and Emporia meet tomorrow night at*Emporia. Washburn will entertain non-conference Omaha University Friday at Topeka and Saturday's card will catch Emporia and Kansas Wesleyan meeting at Salina, and Pittsburg and St. Benedict's mixing at Atchison.

don't call him "Poor Lou." You should be so fortunate.
For the big job at the motorboat show is a 48-foot wheeler promote yacht and Perini took one look and bought it. Which is a nice way to be able to look, too, instead of wondering whether you can afford a new set of oars for that rowboat tied up at the creek.
Of course, they have the oars available at the boat show, and just about anything else you want from propellers to popcorn. But harting a course through all three oops of four is now known imitated and sensick pills ready at hand, old Cap'n Fearless was looking for the upausal.
One thing which struck me, and quite a few other staring landlubbers, was the provocative figurehead from a British ship built in 1820. Wearing the grandmother of all plunging necklines, it is known as "Sally." Soil, it would be called "My Friend Irma." From the collodetle, early 19th century prudishness was greatly exaggerated.
Avast from there, and I did, was a collection of scrimshaw which proves that a sailor's life isn't all it's cracked up to be. Scrimshaw is whale bone carving and the guys who did this intricate business couldn't have had a girl in every port to keep their minds busy.
