KU Plays Washington U.; Hopes For Seventh Win
An old feud between the Kansas Jayhawkers and the Washington Bears will be renewed Saturday night in St. Louis. It will be the first meeting between the two clubs since 1928 but the 51st in a series that started in 1909. Kansas has won 40 games in the series.
Claude Houchin, high-scoring Jayhawker, is expected to be a constant
Claude Hauck, in the fight to the Bears in what looks to be a close game. Other tentative starters for K.U. are Gene Petersen, Jerry Waugh, Harold England, and Bill Sapp. England is on the doubtful list because of a charley horse received in practice last week. Maurice Martin will start if England is not able.
Both teams have lost to Nebraska. Tuesday the Bears pressed Nebraska all the way before going down, 45 to 48. The game was tied six times and Washington showed a rugged court crew with a highly concentrated scoring offense. Three men tallied 39 of the 45 points with Don Barker, center, garnering 14. Fifty-one fouls were committed.
Kansas, on the other hand, went down 34 to 52, in a smashing upset. However, the Jayhawkers showed improvement in defeating Missouri Tuesday, and the Cornhusker upset must be considered an upset.
Houchin is leading the K.U. scoring parade with 124 points this season, an average of 11.2 points a contest. It is the first time since 1938 that a guard has held this position. Houchin is 29 points ahead of runner-up Petersen who has tagged 95 to date.
In running up his lead, Houchin has had only one big night, that against tough Purdue, hitting for 17 points. But the tall backliner is consistently reaching the double figures. He has been the Mt. Orcader's high scorer four times and tied with England once out of 11 starts.
The Jayhawkers will be seeking their seventh victory. They have been defeated four times. Washington has a record of four wins against five defeats.
Kansas' 10 top scorers are:

K-State Has Ailing Team
By UNITED PRESS
Winner and still champion among the crying-towel coaches of the Big Seven basketball conference today was Jack Gardner of Kansas State.
In preparation for K-State's game against Colorado (0-1) at Manhattan, Saturday, Gardner had (1) placed all his starters on the doubtful list with afflictions and ailments ranging from chills to arthritis, and (2) bemoaned the fact that two of Colorado's best, Bob Rolander and Carl Besemann, should be playing on his team. Both are from Kansas.
Gardner gained early recognition this season for his public utterances when he said Easy Ed Macauley of St. Louis couldn't carry the shoes of Kentucky's Alex Groza.
