Eyes On Them . . .
Howard Engleman
Bob Allen
Herb Gregg
Certain to claim most of the scoring spotlight when Jayhawk meets Tiger in their important Big Six tussle in Columbia tonight are Kansas' Howard Engleman and Bobby Allen, who currently rank one-two among the conference scorers and Herb Greeg, five-foot eight-inch Bengal dynamo, who is the Missourians' leading point-getter.

Nine times out of ten when a first place team meets a last place team, your grandmother could pick the winner. But the tenth time will be coming up tonight when the Jayhawks play Missouri's Tigers at Columbia.
Kansas will carry the Big Six conference lead into the fray, while Missouri is wallowing in the cellar, but that does not tell the whole story. Although the Tigers have lost six conference starts this season, they have never been badly beaten. There is one game that they fight for every year, and that is the game
sports AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
As usual wily "Phog" Allen has an answer for another wayward jibe at Kansas University athletics.
Last fall just before Gwinn Henry's Jayhawker footballers journeyed to Columbia to do battle with a massive Tiger in their annual "Franksgiving" day tussle, M.U. Coach Don Faurot came forward with the statement that he had never played on or coached a team which had suffered a defeat at the hands of a Kansas eleven.
Faurot played on Tiger clubs that whipped the Jayhawkers in 1923 and '24 and has coached his alma mater to four victories and one tie since he took over the gridiron reins at Tigertown. Hence we see that his record is clear of football defeat.
Can Mr. Faurot produce another Christman or Starmer next year to continue his unblemished football record against the Kansans or will he merely hope for a last laugh chance tonight in the form of a stunning upset when a tattered Tiger five meets "Phog's" Jayhawkers in Brewer Field house?
In rebuttal "Phog" now points out that although Faurot has always played or coached on a victorious Tiger football eleven, he never saw his beloved Bengals down the Jayhawkers in basketball while he was in school. In 1922-'23 Kansas won both games by counts of 21-19 and 23-20; in '23-'24 the scores were 16-14 and 30-17, and in the '24-'25 season, Kansas won by margins of 23-22 and 33-17.

The Allenmen subdued the Tigers, 48 to 41, after a hard battle the first time the teams met this year. But that game was played in Hoch auditorium, while this one will be

held in Brewer field house, the lair of the Tigers, who are famous for their toughness on the home court. Upset The Aggies
Monday night, the Missourians showed other Big Six teams what kind of treatment they might expect at Columbia, by downing Kansas State, 30 to 28.
With tonight's game, Kansas will be entering the second and stiffer half of its schedule. The Jayhawks must face every team in the league again and Missouri, Iowa State, and Nebraska will have the advantage of home courts. Oklahoma and Kansas State will be dealt with at Lawrence.
Lynn Bedford, 6 foot sophomore, has taken Bangert's place at forward and probably will open there tonight. Little Herbie Gregg, who racked up 17 points against Kansas in the first game, has been shelved with a foot injury and Don Harvey has seen considerable service at his position. Edwards has been nursing Gregg along however, and will have him ready to play tonight.
With his last place team riddled with injuries and scholastic troubles at mid-semester, Coach George Edwards has been forced to develop his reserve material. Arch Watson and Keith Bangert were declared ineligible and Edwards has been alternating George Constantz and Roy Storm at center with favorable results. Storm was the hero of the Kansas State game, firing in the winning goal in the last second of play.
Gregg May Play
According to reports from Columbia, both Storm and Constantz have minor injuries, and Captain Martin Nash will open at center. Loren Mills, 6 foot junior, and Ralph

Table Tennis Team Meets C. of E. Sunday
The University Memorial Union men's table tennis team will play matches with College of Emporia table tennis men here at 2:30 Sunday afternoon. The following Sunday both the men's and women's teams meet Kansas State for a return match in the Memorial Union building.
Scott May Miss Missouri Meet
Ted Scott, chunky Jayhawk sprinter, may not make the trip to Columbia tomorrow for the dual track meet with Missouri, Bill Hargiss, varsity track coach said today. Scott, who placed second in the 60-yard dash last week, pulled a muscle in practice recently, and is also "under the weather" with a bad cold.
But the Kansas distance corps will be bolstered by Don Thompson, letterman who was kept out of the Kansas State dual meet following a tonsillectomy. The Jayhawks failed to place a man in Thompson's favorite event, the half mile, in the K-State meet.
Ed Linquist, varsity fullback, is a new addition to the shot putters, who will make his first appearance in the Tiger meet.
The team will leave Lawrence at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning after breakfast at the Eldridge hotel.
The following will make the trip to Columbia:
Darrell Mathes, Bob Stoland, Don Pollom, Kenneth Hamilton, Orlando Epp, Dick Edwards, Don Thompson, Clarence Miller, Ralph Schaake, Fred Eberhardt, Albert Poznik, Bill Beven, John Mitchener, Jim Cordell, Larry Finney, W. F. Jack, J. R. Jones, and Ed Linguist.
Kappa Beta Holds Initiation Services
Four members of the Men's Interfraternity Council left the Hill yesterday for a two day convention in Norman, Okla.
The delegates who attended the regional conference were Bob Farmer, Sigma Chi; Bob McKay, Delta Upsilon; Bill Cole, Beta Theta Pi; and Stan Stauffer, Phi Delta Theta. The convention will last today and tomorrow.
Phi Psi's Wallop PAD's 32-19
In the only intramural contest of the evening, Phi Kappa Psi redeemed itself for the 1-point defeat at the hands of the A.T.O.'s two days ago, by winning from Phi Alpha Delta, 32 to 19. The Phi Psi victory was the sixth in eight starts.
The first quarter ended 12-10 in the Psi's favor, with Breen, P.A.D., gathering 8 of his team's points. Halftime found an increased Phi Psi lead of 20 to 12. The P.A.D. five closed this margin in the third quarter to six points, the score being 25-19. The final period found an increase of seven more points to the game winning total of the Phi Psi's.
Hodge paced the victors with 4 goals and Breen, P.A.D., topped both teams with 6 baskets. Sealey, Phi Psi, and Widner, P.A.D., turned in fine all-around performances.
