HURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1950
Along the JAYHAWKER trail

The Kansas-Iowa State game Saturday is expected to break all single game attendance marks for the series between the two schools (at Ames) and for the stadium as well. Some 20,000 fans will crowd into the stands at Clyde Williams field for the Cyclone's homecoming game with the Jayhawkers. This stadium has facilities for a normal capacity crowd of 18,500.
Merl Ross, Iowa State athletic business manager, said Monday that the record-breaking homecoming crowd will be the largest in the school's history.
Reading between the lines, this all looks like a busy afternoon for Coach Sikes' young team. Teams are always "up" it seems when they play for the oldtimers in a homecoming game. Coach Abe Stuber has several outstanding sophomores who are helping to provide the Cyclones with a fine balanced offensive club, one which is considered improved over the 1949 team that downed K.U. here 19 to 6.

This week's Weekly Gridiron Record published by Athletic Publications, Inc., Minneapolis, Minn., contains some football facts that should be interesting to Jayhawker followers.
On their probable scores sheet we find the Kansas at Iowa State game rated a 13-13 tie—indicating the game is rated a tossup. Well, we see the game about the same, but think the Jayhawkers will have enough extra in excellent conditioning and the "desire-to-win" to win a high scoring game . . . say by a 27 to 20 margin
In the publication's game analysis, the following appears on the Jayhawker-Cyclone game. "Another Big Seven contest pitting the league's two dark horses. Both clubs own one conference win—each defeating Colorado by one touchdown. The Jayhawkers
have a better ground game (Charlie Hoag) while the Cyclones have an edge in the passing department (Bill Weeks). A vote for the team with the greater potentialities—Kansas in a very close win."
The Missouri at Kansas State game analysis is as follows in the publication. "The question here is—not whether Missouri can win, but if the Tigers can score at all. Two games and eight blanks for Don Faurot's impotent Tigers. Against Kansas State the drought should end. Missouri has eight regulars back from the 1949 team and should outclass Ralph Graham's young Wildcats." We're sorry to say but it looks like more trouble for Coach Graham's case of "nervous indigestion."

The Kansas football team will depart for the Iowa State game from the Union Pacific railroad station at 7:52 a.m. Friday. The team is scheduled to arrive at Des Moines at 1:10 Friday afternoon and set up headquarters at the Kirkwood hotel. Coach J. V. Sikes will send his squad through a light drill at Drake university stadium Friday afternoon.
The team will depart from the Kirkwood hotel at 11 a. m. Saturday traveling via chartered bus directly to Clyde Williams field at Ames.
Following the game, the team will return to the Kirkwood for dinner. The team will board their pullman cars later in the evening and depart from Des Moines at 2:25 a.m. Sunday, arriving in Kansas City, Mo., at 7:30. After breakfast, the team will depart for Lawrence at 9 a.m., arriving at the Union Pacific station at 9:39 a.m. Sunday.

"A send off rally for the team is planned for 7:35 a.m. Friday," Don Hull, head cheerleader said today, "and we want to see every student down to meet the team when it arrives back Sunday morning. There will be a rally in the lobby of the Kirkwood hotel in Des Moines at 10:45 Saturday morning. An alumni-student luncheonally is also planned at noon in the Cyclone Cellar at the Iowa State Memorial student union building at Ames," Hull said.
Here are some Jayhawker odds-and-ends. . . This week's Associated Press grid poll lists K.U. in a tie with Drake University for the 35th spot. . . Oklahoma ranks No. 3 and Nebraska is moving up fast, now ranking 23rd.
The life of a college football scout is usually considered one of the most undesirable because he almost never sees the team he scouts for in action (the home club) . . . We think maybe K.U. assistant coach Hub Ulrich drew a better than average assignment for this weekend. He will get to see one of the greatest double-headers ever scheduled in college football at Dallas, Texas, in the Cotton bowl.
In the afternoon Texas, ranked No. 4, plays the Oklahoma Sooners (No. 3) . . . Saturday night Hub will be taking notes on the Oklahoma Aggies, K.U.'s opponent here next Saturday, when they play the country's No. 2 team, Southern Methodist.
A send-off rally for the Kansas football team will be held at 7:35 a.m. Friday at the Union Pacific railroad station. "This Iowa State game is a 'must' in the KU. win column, and we want to really give the team a big send off." Don Hull, head cheerleader said today. "We will have another rally to welcome the team home at 9:35 Sunday morning," Hull said.
