Denver Gets Ready For Kansas Contest
The Pioneers of Denver university, definitely disappointing to backers in their season opener against Colorado college last Saturday, underwent an extra-intensive workout this week, in preparation for tomorrow night's contest with Kansas.
"We weren't ready," was Coach Clyde Hubbard's explanation of last week's 12-0 defeat.
"But the situation may be different against Kansas," he added.
Number one on Hubbard's list of things to be happiest about is Johnny Karamigios, "the galloping Greek from Cherry Creek," who is back on the squad after an attack of intestinal flu and a slight concussion received in the Colorado game. With Karamigios back, the Denver backfield should be in better condition.
George Miller, one of Denver's likelyest-looking tackles, arrived back in camp two days before the Colorado game, and will be ready against Kansas. Ed Schneider, another tackle, who has been sick since his arrival at school, will be in condition for the Jayhawker fracas.
The Denver line hasn't been very highly regarded at any time, and last

week it showed some definite weaknesses. The best defensive work of the night was just six inches from the goal line, when the Colorado Tigers were held at that spot on the fourth down—but it was a backfield man, Bob Hazelhurst, who brought down the ball-carrier just short of a touchdown.
Hubbard's problem this week has been to get these potentially good players ready to meet the Kansans.
