ALLEN'S TALK---would throw the Allenmen into a tie for the conference championship with Iowa State and eliminate all chances of landing in the Western playoffs.
Jay James will start things off in the morning with stickers and signs proclaiming "Rally Today," then will arouse students from their books and classes at 10 o'clock with yells in the halls of Frank Strong hall and the library.
Chief Wahoo in Charge
The program will be under the guidance of Big Chief Wahoo, (C.C. Carl) a witty redskin from the wilds of the downtown business district. The Big Chief will be aided in keeping the ball rolling by skits and stunts put on by the more talented members of the Ku Ku club, and by the music of Clyde Bysom's and Clayton Harbur's bands as each tries to outdo the other in whipping the students into a proper frame of mind for the big game.
The climax of the celebration will be a talk by Caoch Allen on "Your Team and Mine."
K.U. MUST WIN--would throw the Allenmen into a tie for the conference championship with Iowa State and eliminate all chances of landing in the Western playoffs.
Upset Chances Small
Chances that Bruce Drake's Sooners might pull an upset, however, are growing smaller day by day. Already crippled by the loss of six-foot four-inch Paul Heap, regular guard who suffered a broken hand last week, the Sooners received another blow last night when A. D. "Ug" Roberts, prominent sophomore forward, suffered a gashed forehead in scrimmage.
Several stitches were required to close the cut and physicians said that Roberts might not see any action against Kansas.
Big Hugh Ford, the southerner's six-foot, six-inch center, is also on the injured list with a bad charley horse, but should see considerable action.
No Jayhawk Overconfidence
Despite these injuries and the fact that the Sooners are currently in the throes of a seven game losing streak, there are no signs of overconfidence in the Jayhawk camp.
"We are working as hard for our game with Oklahoma as we would if playing Indiana for the intercollegiate championship again." Coach "Phog" Allen remarked yesterday as he sent his cagers through offensive paces on the Hoch auditorium floor.
"Even though Oklahoma is crippled and has lost seven straight games, they are still dangerous. We are looking for a tough battle." Team Not Ready to Quit
In addition to defeating Oklahoma, Kansas will also have to score victories over A. and M. and probably Creighton University of Omaha to be considered for one of the four playoff slots.
As for the N.C.A.A. playoffs, Allen explained that he favored calling it quits after the Jayhawkers' closing contest with Oklahoma A. and M. here next Tuesday, but said that he had left the matter entirely up to the members of the team who so far have expressed a desire to play in the affair if they earn the right to do so.
Scheduled to open in the place of Sophomore Guard Marvin Sollenberger, who is slated to see no more service this year because of glandular fever, is T. P. Hunter, the black haired lefthander, who has performed capably at forward
and guard all season.
Hunter to Guard Ford
Allen said he would put Hunter on Ford, who is one of the loop's toughest under the offensive basket.
"Hunter being an Oklahoma boy, ought to have plenty of fun guarding Ford," Allen exclaimed.
The remainder of the lineup will remain unchanged with Howard Engleman and Charles Walker or Vance Hall at forwards, Bobby Allen at center and John Kline at the other sentinel.
"O.U. Mentor Bruce Drake will probably open with Garnett Corbin and A. D. "Ug" Roberts at forwards, Bill Bentley, a six foot three and a half inch footballer at center and Allie Paine and Bill Richards at the guards.
On Roundtable Debate British Aid
Whether or not the United States should undertake all-out aid to Britain immediately will be the subject discussed by the University Roundtable at 9:30 o'clock over Station KFKU.

Early Varsity
The second of the new 8 o'clock varsity dances will be held Saturday night in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building, with Clyde Bysom and his band furnishing the music for the party.
The dance will be a celebration of the hoped-for victory over the Oklahoma Sooners the night before and the resulting Big Six basketball crown, according to Fred Littloy, varsity dance manager. Pessimism does not enter into advance plans, he added.
