Kansas Opens Eastern Swing
Before entraining for Cincinnati on Tuesday, Coach Allen had this comment concerning his team's 60 to 52 win over Purdue. "Carby's play was most impressive and en- uprooted the defense," he used of Jack's fine rebounding and all-around play against the tall teams we will meet in the East."
A win over Coach John Wiethe's favored Bearcats are to encourage to Kansas fans and get the Allenmen into the win column as they open a rough 4-game eastern swing.
Coach Phog Allen's Jayhawkers will be out to break the University of Cincinnati's 13-game winning streak tonight when they clash in the Cincinnati Garden.
"Students showed a fine school spirit in backing the team and helped them to win." Allen said. "The team and coaches appreciate such fine student support as it can do much toward helping us to a successful season. I feel this year's team will play some great games, but we still need considerable improvement on our defense to be classified as title contenders." Allen added.
Dr. Allen is expected to lead with a new starter tonight in forward Jack Carby, six-foot seven-inch sophomore, in hopes of adding defensive rebound power as well as height under the Kansas basket.
Coach Wiethe's high scoring Bearcats will give the Kansas defense a severe test tonight. Cincinnati averaged 80 points in winning their first two starts and looked even more powerful than last year's club that finished with 23 wins and five losses. The 1948-49 club averaged 67.5 to rank ninth in national team offense. In five contests the Bearcats rolled past the 90-point mark and this year will use a near all senior squad in trving to better last year's records.
In forwards Ralph Richter and Capt. Dick Dallmer, the Bearcats have two of the top shooters in the Midwest. In little Al Rubenstein, five-foot ten-inch guard, they have what they call a second Ralph Beard. They have nine of last year's top scorers back.

Affable Marvin Small Begins Planning Statewide KU Drive
Affable Marvin Small threw his arms in the air and said, "Lawsy,
what do you want to interview me for?"
The newly appointed general as-♥
sistant alumni secretary paused from outlining statewide alumni plans, unbuttoned his gray flannel suit coat, and made himself comfortable in a chair in the alumni office. The 6 foot 2 inch former varsity end still looks trim enough to play football.
Small was a political science major. He played football for Kansas in 1946 and 1947, and was noted for his speed and pass-catching ability. In the 1946 Oklahoma A. and M. game he blocked a point after touchdown attempt to give Kansas a 14 to 13 victory. The same year he caught a 54-yard pass from Ray Evans to score the first touchdown against Missouri. Kansas won, 20 to 19.
"My wife and I like this section of the country very much," the amicable Southerner commented. "We have moved to Lawrence as soon as possible."
The 26-year-old assistant general secretary, whose humor keeps his associates laughing, was born in Gadson, Ala. He enrolled at Vanderbilt university in 1941. After playing one year of varsity football he entered the army air corps in December, 1942. He served with the first unit during which he discharged a lieutenant in December, 1945. In 1944 he was married and now has two daughters Susan, 4, and Diane, 3.
Mr. Small, who was graduated in 1949, now lives in Mission. He was employed by an insurance company Kansas City. Mo., before he was hired as a university. His duties will include all phases of K.U. alumni activities.
The 1949 senior class president has made talks at K.U. alumni meetings in Oklahoma and Kansas since he graduated. In November he was elected secretary of the Kansas City chapter. He also served as "chief quarterback" of the Kansas City Quarterback club the past fall.
Mr. Small is a member of Beta Theta Pi, social fraternity.
His Name Was Orange,
But Actually Was A Lemon
Detroit. Mich.. —(U.P.)—Orange Francis Lashbrook is now just plain "Fred."
Mr. Lashbrook, 32, told the judge that his name was "very embarrassing to me, my wife, and our two kids."
"Everyone calls me Fred," he said. "I'd like to make that my permanent name."
The sympathetic judge granted his request.

MARVIN SMALL
Los Angeles—(U/P) T r a f i c i judge Roger A. Pfaff's stirring lecture on the perils of having no tail light affected truck driver Ralph Lanese, 41, so strongly that he insisted on paying a suspended fine.
“Your honor,” he said yesterday, “I want you to know that this appearance in your court has been a great experience. I want to pay the $5. I want to give it to you.”
Settlement Is Shortlived
Lecture Causes Violators To Pay
Parker, Kan—(U,P) A 740-pound Christmas present from a summer vacation acquaintance is on the way to an Oregon amateur woodcarver.
Judge Paff, who had suspended the fine after Lanese proved his right to fight was repaired, turned the $5 owed to the National Safety Council.
Osage Orange Post To Be A Present
It is an Osage orange post, nearly 2 feet in diameter and more than 6 feet long, with the address of Harold H. White, Medford, Ore., burned on one end.
Cut on an Eastern Kansas farm, the heavy load required a $30.80 freight shipping charge.
The giver is Byrd C. Burham, Kansas City, Mo., who met Mr. White the past June and learned the Oregon farmer had worked with many kinds of wood, but never with the Middle West Osage orange.
Cleburne, Tex. — (U.P.) — Things looked amicable when police arrested two men for fighting and one made cash bond for himself and then signed a bond for his opponent. The men left together, went to a point near the city limits and started fighting again. They were gone by the time officers arrived, apparently having finished their differences.
