'Mit' Allen Drills 21 Frosh Cagers
Trying to duplicate his father's tactics, Milton "Mit" Aller is whipping his freshman basketball squad of 21 members into fine shape in hopes that he can schedule a few games during the season for his charges.
This year's squad, while not as potentially strong as last year's entire team, has a few players that show just as much promise. Otto Schnellbacher, highest scorer in Kansas high schools last year, is proving\*
himself a classy little center. And his "littleness" stretches to 6'1" which he used to the best of advantage as he became high scorer with 10 points in the recent Varsity-Freshman contest which the Varsity won, 25 to 17. Brill Looks Good
Bill Brill is the outstanding guard prospect on the team. He hails from Wyandotte where he teamed with Ray Evans. Brill's greatest advantage is his knowledge of fundamentals and his capabilities as a parser and floor man.
Other men showing up especially well at this stage are Armand Dixon, California-shooting forward; Kenny Thompson, speedy little offensive threat; John Short, all-state guard from Salina; Bob Siddons, South Dakota flash; and Stan Hansen, smooth-playing Kansas City, Mo., prospect.
Army Teams Approached
"Mit" stated that he has been trying to schedule some games with neighboring army camps. Before he can complete arrangements, however, permission must be obtained from the Big Six athletic council. This is done to protect the eligibility of his players.
The boys that are regularly turning out for practice are Kenny Thompson, Paul Carpenter, Bill Brill, Walt Verbanic, Ed Sayers, and Larry Stream from Kansas City, Kan., Stan Hansen, Bill Bauer, and Floyd McHenry from Kansas City, Mo., Armand Dixon and Lewis Musick from Hermosa Beach, California; Harold "Sparky" McSpadden, Lawrence; John Short, Salina; Bob Corder, Welda; Warren Jacks, Pratt; Otto Schnellbacher, Sublette; Bob Groom, Wichita; Herb Kauffman, Topeka; Robert Heaston, Baldwin; Bill Forsyth, Medicine Lodge; and Bob Siddons, Platte, South Dakota.
BIG SIX TEAMS
(continued from page four) the Doane college Tigers from Crete. Neb. 57 to 43 at Manhattan. The game was characterized by ragged play and numerous fouls, 24 were called on Doane and 16 on Kansas State.
Dan Howe, K-State center, was the high scorer among his teammates, making 11 points. Wayne Weber, the Tiger's lanky center, ran away with individual scoring honors of the game with a total of 26, counting nine field goals and two free throws, scoring on setup and tip-in shots mostly.
The starting line-up for K-State had four letter men and sophomore Bruce Holman. When K-State gained a margin, Coach Jack Gardner sent in his inexperienced talent, with six sophomores seeing action.
Iowa State, co-champion of the Big Six had a "rough" night before defeating a good Coe college quintet 46 to 33. Capt. Albert Budolfson, an-conference forward for the Cyclone's last year, led the scoring,

ringing up a total of 13 points. Iowa State led 17 to 11 at the half and was never overtaken.

8,000 Expected At Grid Clash In Manhattan
Five thousand soldiers from Ft. Riley will be on hand tomorrow to watch the first "Sunflower Bowl" grid game when .the championship Ft. Riley Cavalry eleven tangles with the Kansas College All-Stars in Manhattan.
The soldiers from Ft. Riley will cheer the Army eleven as one body, firmly believing in the slogan "United we stand, divided we fall," but not so with the Kansas football fans who will come to Manhattan Saturday, for each All-Star will have his own home town rooting section.
With the home towns of the other stars expected to follow McPherson's example, the Manhattan USO benefit game promoters are regretting they left one star off the All-Star roster. They forget to pick an All-Star cheerleader, Aerial Attack Planned
The Kansas College All-Stars hold their last practice session this afternoon. Eml Listen, head coach of the All-Star staff, has stressed the use of a fast versatile aerial attack this week, forwards and laterals being a major part of this plan. At the quarterback position "Kayo" Emmot, Washburn's great backfield star, has been calling signals. Ray Rokey, Kansas State's quarterback, will alternate with Emmot tomorrow afternoon.
In the line Max Timmons and Larry Timmons playing at right and left guards are showing up as the blocking aces, both men weigh near 200 pounds and both think blocking is fun. Baker's Larry went to the Baldwin school as a highly touted high school backfield star, only to have Emil Liston make a great college guard out of him.
8.000 Fans Expected
Six of the All-Stars plan to enter the air corps after graduation. Among the air-minded football stars are Keith Caywood, Emporia State's Little All-American halfback; Don O'Connor, St. Benedict's leading scorer of the Central conference; Larry Timmons, Baker's star guard; Dick Rees, College of Emporia guard; Everett Steiner, Kansas Wesleyan end; and Raymond "Squeak" Myers, McPherson center.
USO officials predict that a crowd of more than 8,000 fans will be on hand tomorrow afternoon in the Kansas State Memorial Stadium to witness the first Sunflower Bowl game.

Hall got set for a medium-long shot and the Whites had two more points. The Reds then took over as "Red" Ettinger pushed in a one-handed shot from the middle and Hub Ulrich finished the game by caging a drive-in from the right side. Final score: Whites, 14; Reds, 10.
Fundamentals occupied most of the time before scrimmage started. Faking and pivoting were emphasized as well as maneuvers for a guard on close-in tactics. After rebound and defensive work and a few short passing drills, the squad engaged in scrimmage.
