Lace Tigers Kansans End Two Year Losing Streak On Columbia Floor
By CLINT KANAGA
Phog Allen's scrappy Jayhawkers entered the Tiger's lair at Columbia Friday night and emerged unscathed with an important 35 to 24 victory. Three seniors, Howard Engelman, Bob Allen, and John Kline tasted their first win in three years in Brewer field house.

WHEN AND if Kansas winds up it's 1940-41 basketball season in another N.C.A.A. Western half playoff championship in Kansas City next month it will undoubtedly come face to face with the current top ranking club in the collegiate business: Arkansas U. . . . And the mighty Razorbacks, who are undefeated to date in collegiate play are a club to make any coach concur with "Phog" Allen in screaming for a 12-foot basket. . . Their starting lineup, spearheaded by lanky Johnny Adams, averages over six-feet four-inches, remains the same even after two substitutions. . . . Adams set a new Southwest conference scoring mark Friday night with a 36-point assault on the goal as the Porkers steamrolled Texas Christian, 67-42.
ONLY CLUB to defeat the southernners this year is the National A.A.U. champion Phillips 66 five, whose height bring the 10-foot basket practically within eye level . . . Even the awesome Oilers, however, dropper one contest before taking the last two in the team's three game series both by close scores.

The Jayhawkers' triumph over Missouri strengthened their hold on first place in the Big Six conference. The Kansas record is five wins and one loss.
Game standouts were Allen and Vance Hall for Kansas, and George Constanz of Missouri. Allen's quarterbacking of the Kansas five was near perfection and Hall turned in a fine all-around performance. Constanz, the Missouri sophomore, was the outstanding man for the losing side.
"Rope's"Average Drops
Rope's Average Drops Howard Engelman, Kansas' All-American forward, who is leading the Big Six scoring race, suffered a decrease in his point-making average from 20.4 per game to 19.0.

Mills picked up another point on a charity toss and Ralph Carter, Missouri guard, sank a side shot to put his team within two points of Kansas. Engelman then hit a jump shot giving Kansas a 9 to 5 first quarter lead.

Kappleman To Star Camp This Week
A trial in a class AA baseball league is in store for Francis Kappelman, former Jayhawk catcher, when he reports for spring training with the Hollywood Stars at Elmore, Calif. this week.
Kappelman played three years of varsity basketball at Kansas and was an All-Big Six guard selection in 1936. For the past two seasons he has been first string catcher with the Salina Millers in the Class C Western Association. He was sold to the Pacific Coast League club last fall.
This winter Kappelman has been assisting "Phog" Allen and Gordon Gray in drilling the varsity and freshman cage squads and started at guard for the alumni in the alumni-varsity game. During the past month he has been limbering up his throwing arm in Robinson gym in preparation for the coming campaign.
Cats Primed For Upset Triumph
Coach Jack Gardner will bring a bunch of determined Kansas State Wildcats to town Tuesday night in an attempt to snap the Jayhawk's twenty-five game home winning streak. The game is scheduled for 7:30 at Hoch auditorium.
The Aggies will have little respect for the Allenmen's Big Six mark of five wins and one loss. "The test the Jayhawks are leading the league means nothing to us," Gardner said. "We defeated Oklahoma when they were in first place. Neither do we take any stock in the home court jinx story. We came closer defeating Kansas last season than we did at Manhattan."
In the previous meeting this year the Jayhawks trounced Kansas State 46 to 41 at Manhattan, when the Wildcats were unable to cool off Howard Engleman, who poured 23 points into the basket.
The Kansas State team with a record of three wins against five losses, is out of the pennant race, but it still has a chance to spoil the records of some of the contenders, including Kansas.
The Jayhawks will give away both weight and height in the game. Only one man the Kansas State starting lineup weight less than 180 pounds. Three of the starters are 6 foot 1 inch tall and the other two stretch to 6 foot 3 inches.
Aggies Are Hefty
In contrast with this, three of the Jayhawk regulars weigh only 165 pounds apiece and the starting line-up does not quite average 6 foot 1 inch.
