Fearful ...
DR. F.C. ALLEN
With the warning that "we fear the Aggies," Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen will send his fighting Jayhawkers into their big Six fray with Kansas State tonight favored to carry off their sixth consecutive conference triumph.
sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
When the Jayhawker football fan takes a late afternoon peek inside Memorial stadium these days where the University of Kansas grid staff is putting a spring practice vanguard of 35 huskies through some new offensive maneuvers then scans his hip-pocket roster of returning material, he can see a shaft of light through the clouds that have blackened Mt. Oread gridiron fortunes for the past five years.
For when official spring drills open next Monday and a full squad of Gwinn Henry taught footballers appear, the Kansas football fan will be seeing the first respective amount of material since Henry and his two aides, Vic Hurt and Harry Lansing, took over the Red and blue football rudder two years ago.
Main material reservoir will be a talent-loaded freshmen squad, nearly all of which came through the scholastic scrimmage unscathed.
Leading the yearlings when the squad begins to exchange elbows and knees across the line should be four backs of note and at least three linemen of superior ability. Ray Niblo, who bids to rival Ralph Miller in airlane wizardry, is 195 pounds of halfback, from whom Big Six will hear much before the '41 season is over. His equally illustrious running mate, Ray Evans, former Wyandotte high school star, is another great prospect of all-around ability.
Much of the tough line-backing job probably will fall to another freshman back, scrapy "Don" Ettinger, a 195-pound blocking back, or Ralph "Cresty" Childs, a thick-shouldered dreadnaught from Kansas City. Childs, a guard on last fall's frosh, is at present cavorting in a fullback role

Eight Champs Returning To Defend Track Titles In K.C. Saturday
Phi Psi's Topple Teke's; DU, Beta Win Close Ones
By CLINT KANAGA
With Jim Sealey, Psi long shot artist, "hot," Phi Kappa Psi knocked Tau Kappa Epsilon out of first place in Division I 26 to 19 in last night's most important intramural contest Delta Upsilon also robbed Carruth Hall of their share of first place in Division I by Winning from them, 29 to 26. Phi Kappa Psi, Delta Chi and Sigma Alpha Epsilon now hold joint shares of the leadership of Division I. In a rough and tumble battle, a fighting Delta Tau Delta five forced the highly touted Beta Theta I team to an overtime before losing 21 to 19. As a result of their hair-raising triumph, the Betas retained their position of second place in Division II. In the evening's other game, Alpha Tau Omega, paced by the Arthur brothers, Bill and Charles, wor easily from Phi Alpha Delta 27 to 19
Psi's Win Handily
All even at 12 points apiece at halftime, the Phi Spi's, with Hodge and Sealey hitting, moved ahead 20 to 14 at the third quarter, and won in a breeze 26 to 19. Ulrich, Teke for- (continued on page five)
DALE DEKOSTER
Cyclone Standout
One big reason for the sensational late season drive of Iowa State's Cyclones is Dale DeKoster, who bids fair to be the outstanding sentinel in the Big Six this year. DeKoster ranks second only to Gordon Nicholas in the Cyclone scoring this year and is a fine defensive player. Louie Menze's club defeated Missouri in Columbia last night, 49-29 to climb into undisputed possession of third place in the loop standings.
With eight of last year's champions returning to defend their crowns, the annual Big Six indoor track and field meet in Municipal Auditorium at Kansas City this Saturday will be one of the classic athletic events in the middlewest this winter.
Most railbirds name Missouri as the team most likely to give Nebraska trouble, with Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, and Iowa State battling for third place.
Nebraska, with title holders in four events, is regarded as a heavy favorite and stands an excellent chance to repeat its 1940 performance and spread-eagle the field.
Chief source of Missouri strength lies in the legs of Captain Marshall Reeves, who has kept the half mile honors a private possession for the past two years. Thaine High, Kansas State distance man, returns to protect his two mile run laurels.
Two other Cornhusker aces, Bill Smutz and Harold Hunt, will be back to guard their titles in the 60-yard low hurdles and pole vault respectively.
The lone Kansas winner in 1940, J. R. Jones, has hopes of repeating in the broad jump, but team mate, Bob Stoland, who won that event in 1939, may edge him out.
Gene "Red" Littler, the great Nebraska spinner of Sugar Bowl fame, will be out to duplicate his showing of last year when he captured the 60 and 440-yard dashes.
A crack Iowa State mile relay quartet of Doug Graves, Ernest Dahl, Marvin Haugelbak, and Joe Taylor, is returning intact and will attempt to better the Big Six record of 3.28 which it set last year.
All the matches were singles, and only men participated. Those playing, in their respective positions were Joe Davison, Perry Petterson, Charles Ham, David Holmes, Bud Heiberg, and Glenn Mize.
The University top six men in the table tennis brackets trounced the College of Emporia team here Sunday afternoon in the fourth intercollegiate match of the tournament, by winning five matches out of six.
Netsters Trounce C. of E.; State Next
The next intercollegiate match will be with Kansas State next Sunday afternoon in the Memorial Union game room, in which four top men and two top women will play.
Word has been received of the death of Dr. Eugene E. Ebling in Lindsborg Sunday night. Dr. Ebling was the father of Raymond and Donald Ebling, former basketball stars at the University.
Heart Attack Fatal To E. E. Ebling, Father Of Ray and Don
Doctor Ebling, a 54-year-old dentist, died of a heart attack.
Mermen Drop Finale To Ags
Gene Nelson gave Jayhawk swimmers their only first place, as they dropped their final dual meet to Kansas State, 60 to 22, in Robinson gym pool yesterday afternoon.
Friday morning the mermen leave for Lincoln, Neb., for the Big Six meet, to be held there Friday and Saturday.
In conference competition Kansas failed to register a win. They dropped two duals to Oklahoma, two to K-State, and one each to Nebraska and Iowa State.
Iowa State, defending champions, will likely be in for a hard week-end, with either Kansas State or Nebraska slated to take over the Big Six swimming crown.
