Henry Has An All-American Hub Ulrich Near Perfect
"An almost perfect end" is Coach Gwinn Henry's description of Hubert Ulrich, big University of Kansas wingman. And the veteran mentor is not one for throwing praise around lavishly.
The only possible flaw anyone could find in Ulrich's play is his pass catching. While he is a good receiver, his play in this particular department does not measure up to his exceptional work in other things.
As a defensive end, Coach Henry rates "Hub" as the best he has seen in many years. Getting Ulrich completely out of a play is something which simply isn't done.
Ball carriers soon learn that it saves a great deal of trouble to cut back on plays at Ulrich's side of the line, rather than to try to run around that end. Efforts to skirt the Kansas left end usually end in losses of from five yards on up.
Blocker after blocker will hurl himself at Ulrich on wide plays, but to no trail. The 200 pound senior wingman just brushes them off and keeps running the play toward the side lines, until either he makes the tackle or
HUBERT ULRICH
one of the Kansas backs comes up to spill the ball carrier for a healthy loss.
Power plays run toward the Jayhawk left end find "Hub" standing his ground like the Rock of Gibraltar. Frequently he gets the ball carrier, and if not he can be counted on to have taken care of the interference.
The result has been that Kansas' opponents this fall have shown a decided tendency to run most of their plays at the right side of the Kansas line. They don't care to have anything to do with Ulrich a all.
On offense, he is a superb blocker and a whirlwind down the field under punts. "Hub" played blocking back his freshman year and that experience has meant much. Fast down the field under punts, he is certain death on his tackles.
"Ulrich has every qualification for a great football player," says Coach Henry. "He is cool, never gets nervous and has a fine spirit both in games and in practice."
Typical of "Hub's" play was the fact that after Oklahoma had beaten Kansas 38-0 last week, sports writers called Ulrich the outstanding defensive man on the field.

Sophomores Lead Big Six All-Star Parade
With the Big Six schedule better than half-way finished, many valley linemen and backs have already captured headlines and hold the present edge on other participants in the race to capture all-star ratings. Some of the pre-season highly regarded players have failed to live up to expectations and others who were unknown at the season's opening have blossomed into standout performers.
LIGHTWEIGHT! SMART Here's first choice with campus men who are style leaders on the "Hill."
Five sophomore backs will be pushing the veterans when the pencilpushers began to evaluate the respective backfield men. Junior Golding, Sooner speedster; Ray Evans, Kansas' all-around ace; the sensational Mike Zelznak of Kansas State; little Maurice "Red" Wade, Faunot's climax runner; and Nebraska's blond dynamo, Howard Debus, can match the juniors or seniors any sports writer would care to put up.
Missouri's touchdown twins, Bob Steuber and Harry Ice, will be hard to leave off any all-star selection. The Cornhuskers' have a swell trio in Allen Zikmund, Dale Bradley, and Vike Francis. The Kansas Aggies have a high class fullback in Lyle Wilkins. Ralph Miller, Jayhawk triple-threater, boasts one of the finest passing averages in the nation. Oklahoma's Orv Mathews and the great Indian tailback, Jack Jacobs, shouldn't be overlooked.
Sold by University Men
Darold Jenkins, M.U. captain, looms as the best center in the conference, with Fred Meier as his closest rival. Standout guards are "Fats" Harris and Mitch Shadid, Oklahoma; George Abel, Nebraska; LaVerne Lewis, Iowa State; Bob Jeffries, Missouri sophomore; Ed Huff, Kansas State, and Bob Fluker of Kansas.
Tackles Roger Eason and Howie Teeter of Oklahoma seem to have no peers. However, down in Columbia they say that Norm Wallach is a greater tackle than either Haas or Wetzel of the title-holding Tigers of '39. Nebraska's Herndon, a star a year ago, has been injured this fall.
General consensus of opinion of officials and coaches is that "Hub" Ulrich is the classiest end in the league. Other flankers who have excelled todate are Bert Ekern, Missouri's exceptional pass-receiver; Fred Preston, Cornhusker top-notcher; John Heggen of Iowa State, and "Snorter" Luster of Iowa State, and "Snorter" Luster of prize sophomore, Jim Tyrree.
Mid-season stars: Ends-Urlrich of Kansas, Ekern of Missouri; tackles Wallach of Missouri, Eason of Oklahoma; guards—Abel of Nebraska, Shadid of Oklahoma; center—Jenkins of Missouri; quarterback—Ice of Missouri; halfbacks—Jacobs of Oklahoma, Steuber of Missouri, fullback — Zeleznak of Kansas State.
