Foul, to a great extent, are keeping the Jayhawker basketball team from making sweeping victories over opposing teams this year. A large proportion of the opposing team's score in each game is accounted for by Jayhawker fouls.
Let's look back on the scene. The first game with Warrensburg saw 24 Jayhawker fouls, (the score was 45-2'). The Olathe game saw only 17 fouls, (the score was 65-61).
The boys are just now warming up and no doubt will get on the ball when Big Six teams are met each week beginning Jan. 5. The Jayhawkers cannot afford to throw away points in clumsy fouls.
The main difficulty facing the Jayhawkers at present is the flu epidemic which has already placed a cloud around five men and is threatening to touch every man in the first 15.
And in the Rockhurst game still fewer fouls were made—only 16 with the score 59-45.
Gib Stramel, forward, and Wendell Clark, guard, hit the bed after the Rockhurst game, Dean Corder, substitute center, missed that game because of flu. And Charlie Black and Owen Peck still are not up to par after their siege in the hospital. What this will do to the starting lineup Friday is still not known.
The offensive record for the Jayhawkers has shown up considerably brighter than their defense. The Jayhawkers have amassed 169 points in three encounters, an average of 56 points per game.
