Jayhawkers To Play St. Joseph's Saturday Night
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's fast stepping Kansas basketball team will attempt to stretch its winning ways to three when they play the St. Joseph's Hawks in the second half of a doubleheader in Philadelphia's Convention hall Saturday night.
The game will be the first of a three-game eastern tour that matches the Jayhawkers against two
of the nation's best teams, St. John's university and the University of Kentucky.
Saturday's game will be K.U.'s second meeting with St. Joseph's. Kansas' great 1941-42 club defeated them 63 to 38.
The tour will be K.U.'s test to see if they are to remain among the nation's top teams in national rankings. Kansas' three eastern opponents, with the exception of St. Joseph's, rank among the top ten.

K-State To Play Utah State In New Fieldhouse Saturday
The K-Staters will have only one day of rest from a strenuous road trip which has taken them 'against Long Island, Ohio State, and Purdue in five days. Following the big opener with Utah State, the Gardner men will tangle with Wichita Dec. 12, Indiana Dec. 16, Wisconsin Dec. 18, and Springfield College Dec. 21 before the Big Seven tourney Dec. 27-30.
Manhattan, Kan.—Kansas State open a five-game home stand Saturday night in its new 13,000-capacity fieldhouse when Coach Jack Gardner's cagers meet Utah State with tipoff time slated for 8:15.
After dropping a 59 to 60 game to Long Island university, Kansas State rolled past Ohio State at Columbus 68 to 51 and beat a good Purdue club 60 to 44 on an eastern swing that ended Wednesday night.
The Wildcats' chances for success in their rugged 24-game schedule still are uncertain. Gone are such stellar performers as all-American Rick Harman, two-time all-Big Seven center Clarence Brannum, and playmaker Lloyd Krone. Holes set by their graduation will be hard to fill.
Eight lettermen are back this year headed by regulars guard Ernie Barrett and forwards Jack Stone and Ed Head. Four top sophomores, a squadman from last year, and two junior college transfers make up the remainder of the 1950-51 squad.

One of the biggest problems facing Gardner is the center spot where the graduation of controversial Clarence has left a big hole.
Lew Hitch, a 6-7 one-year letterman, is the No. 1 pivot man right now, but needs to pick up aggressiveness to rebound on a par with some of the top centers K-State will face this season. Sophomore Dick Knostman, a 6-5 all state prospect from Wamego, has been looking good and could move into the starting lineup with some time under his belt.
Big gun in K-State's attack this winter should be Barrett, a 6-2 185-pounder who should rate all-American consideration this winter. The Wellington senior was second only to Harman in scoring last year with 241 points. He notched an even 100 field goals—mostly on quick one-handed push shots—for a 40 percent shooting average.
Then there's Ed Head, the Los Angeles, Calif., six-footer whose coil spring legs make him a scourge on the backboards. A dislocated shoulder kept Head sidelined the first seven games last year, but he made up for lost time when he got back into action.
