K.U. Faces Rockhurst Seeking Victory No.2
The Kansas cagers are set to defeat for a second time the Hawks from Rockhurst college tonight on the floor of Hoch auditorium. Rockhurst lost to the Jayhawkers last week in Kansas City by a score of 47 to 23.
Fighting spirit of the squad is high "Thog" Allen, basketball coach at the close of last night's workout said. But he added that the men are not in the best physical shape because of an exhausting Navy strength test taken yesterday by the V-12 men. Many of them will be stiff and somewhat weakened tonight.
Baska's Absence Felt
Bob Malott, son of Chancellor Mallot, visiting on the campus, worked out with the team Monday and will be on the bench tonight. Malott played for Kansas last year.
The Jayhawkers will also miss Jim Baska who suffered a broken collar bone in practice Thursday.
Tonight the K.U. bench will seat a newcomer who, according to Coach Allen, will probably see action tonight. Ray Lance, who played three years for Pittsburgh Teachers, has joined the squad. Lance is the son of John Lance, basketball coach at Pittsburg.
Rockhurst has been on the road since they were defeated by the Jayhawkers last week. They lost a game to the Herington Air Air Field Saturday night, 35 to 53, and bowed before a mighty Wildcat team last night at Manhattan, 45 to 65.
Rockhurst on Road Trip
A list of only eight men carried the burden for Rockhurst last night with Quinlan starring at guard. After tonight's game the Hawks will head back to Kansas City for a rest.
Coach "Phog" Allen has indicated that he will start Gordon Reynolds and "Whitey" Carlson, forwards; Charlie Moffett, center; Herb Heim and Everett Hill or Kirk Scott, guards.
Eph Markey, Warrenburg Teachers and Chalmers Woodard, Southwestern college, will officiate.
