Villanova Wildcats. . The Jayhawkers Must Watch Basca, Behot, and Rosato. . Why the Kansans Are Doing Their Sightseeing In Washington This Week.
Maurice J. "Clipper" Smith does some talking about his Villanova Wildcats whom the Jayhawks will engage under the lights of Philadelphia's Shibe Park tonight:
"We had a real ball team in those Baylor and Detroit games even if we did lose. The rounding of Nick Basca into condition and the return of Joe Behot to action will bolster our running and passing game fifty per cent. Basca's passing and Behot's receiving were the features of our opener, and both of these kids can run quite a bit too, don't forget.
"We're counting on Sal Rosato to continue his improvement at fullback. A big, fast boy can be a lot of help when things begin to get tough out there and that's the kind of fullback we've needed for several years."
Some Jayhawk fans have been wondering why the Kansans will make a trip to Washington D.C., following the Villanova game when they'll be in the capital city again just two weeks later to play the George Washington Colonials. Here's the answer: Five days after Gwinn Henry's athletes tangle with George Washington they are scheduled to meet Missouri at Coumbia. Thirty-six hours probably will be necessary for the trip home following the George Washington contest. Desiring to give the Jayhawks all the time possible to prepare for Missouri, Kansas officials arranged the sightseeing trip two weeks earlier. The men from Mount Oread will hop a train out of Washington as soon as their game is over.
2-Mile Race Cancelled
Coach Bill Hargiss announced today that the 2-mile meet with Missouri has been cancelled. The race was to have been held between halves of the Missouri-NYU football game at Columbia.
For Golden Jubilee--any Kansas team been able to score more than one touchdown on the Sooners.
Jayhawks, Sooners Meet In Homecoming Battle
The golden anniversary of football at the University of Kansas will be celebrated here Nov. 9 at the Homecoming game between the Jayhawkers and the Powerful Sooners of Oklahoma.
Four hundred and fifteen games were played by the Jayhawks in their first 50 years of football. The records show 233 victories for Kansas, 147 defeats, 35 ties. In those games Kansas teams rolled up 5661 points, while their opponents were scoring 3279.
Played Baker First
Nov. 22, 1890, a Jayhawk team stepped out onto the gridiron at Baldwin to clash with Baker University in the first football game in Kansas history. They lost that day, 22 to 9, but undiscouraged, the Jayhawkers went ahead to become a power in those early days of football in the Middlewest.
That first season of football at Kansas saw the team playing three games, losing the first two and then coming back to win the final contest of the year. After losing to Baker, the Kansas eleven also was downed by the Kansas City YMCA team 18 to 10 before gaining revenge on Baker in a 14 to 12 triumph at Lawrence.
New Homecoming Foe
Fifty years later the Jayhawkers are introducing an innovation in Homecoming, in that for the first time Oklahoma will be the gridiron foe on this particular occasion.
Missouri and Nebraska have been the Homecoming opponent on alternating years always before, but this fall Oklahoma replaces Nebraska in the favored spot.
Back in 1903 Kansas and Oklahoma began football relations and the rivalry is unique in that the two schools have played every year since. Even the World War did not stop the Jayhawks and Sooners from playing, Oklahoma rolling up its most one-sided victory, 33 to 0, in 1918.
Rivalry Began in 1903
The 38th meeting of the two teams finds Kansas holding an 18 to 15 edge in the rivalry. Four of the games have been ties. Oklahoma, however, leads in points, with 344 to 335 for Kansas.
Once again Oklahoma boasts a stout defense. Not since 1930 has
