The subject for today's sermon is "What Happened to the Kansas Basketball Team, or How Good is Missouri?"
Last Thursday night the Tigers outclassed the Jayhawkers even more than the 42 to 31 score indicated. That particular evening they were twice as good as Kansas, but that doesn't mean they have the best does it mean the Big Six championship will follow the football crown to the Athens of Missouri.
The Jayhawkers stunk over at Colombia, and I am sure all the boys had taken a shower just the night before. Ordinarily just they are not the least bit offensive (possibly no nm intended here).
Coupled with their unfriendly relations with the basket, the Kanawa were passing the ball poorly and the defense was ragged. Time went on as the Tigers would whirl right by big guard for a shot close range.
Can't Hit Gift Shots--
Just to give you a little more idea of how cold the Jayhawkers were they hit only 5 out of 16 free throws which must have been a new low in theft. They were as they were. 10 degree outdoor Brewer field house.
As for Missouri, it displayed a solid potent team. Bill Harvey, Clay Cooper, and Martin Nash (all listed at 6 feet, but hardly looked it) and this little Herb Gregg really frolowed around. They looked plenty early in their careers, so I rather imagine that received crowd of 5,500 thinks it has a world-bester to take up where Paul Christian and Company left off.
It's going to be a forlorn Tiger-town when reports come from some city like Norman, Oka, or Manhattan, Kau, or Lincoln, Neb, or Lawrence telling how Clay Cooper and Bill Harvey were missing jump headphones during Missouri Tigers' breakup into second place.
Lobsiger a Honey---
The fans at Columbia won't believe it, because they think their Bengals are invincible, but that's what's going to happen.
In John Lobserig, Coach George Edwards has a boy who would star in any kind of company. He really come that Tiger team. But the rest are just a bunch of kids of average height. You know Kansas. That howling, partisan crowd carried the team along as much as anything else.
Even though the Jayhawkers were trailing 38 to 18 after 33 minutes of the game, I still think they have plenty of stuff to come back and win the title—providing they all start playing the ball they are capable of and no dissension crops up in the ranks.
It is hard to figure how a team could look so good against Oklahoma's powerhouse, then turn fright against Kansas State and Missouri, be that old puzzle of Kansas and Kansas basketball teams.
Buccaneer Team Still Unbeaten
By Clint Kanaga, c'42
Harold "Lamplighter" Johnson went on another scoring junt Friday night, breaking all existing intramural point-getting records for a single game. "Lamp" gathered 24 field goals and 5 free throws for the grand total of 53 points. It might also be added at this time that Johnson's team, the A.K.PsI's, remained unbaten winning from the Mississippi Meteors 78 to 13.
Another powerhouse in the same division as the A.K. Pa's is the Buccaneer outfit. Thursday they slaughtered Rock Chalk, 72 to 18, and yesterday won by forfeit from the Dunakin Club. Bourne was the high man in the Rock Chalk game, tallying 21 points. The Buccaneers record is five victories against no defeats.
With Linn and Johnson pacing the attack, the Hellbounds downed the Dominies II, 17 to 13. The Jayhawk Co-op win a close, hard-fought battle from the Hexagons II, 25 to 20. The A.T.O. "B"队 scored its first win of the season over the Delta Chi "B" 24 to 6. Hexagons I turned in its fourth triumph in six starts, walloping the Alpha Chi Sigmas, 55 to 7. The Gibbens brothers, Denzil and Chester, were outstanding for the Hexagons L.
Now for the forift column. The following are the games won by default. Kappa Sigma over Delta Umahion ISA-1 over Ohio Idbahodes, Phi Gam "B" over Pi K.A. "B", and Dhi Belt "D" over D.U. "B".

BRICK'S ON THE HILL
PENCHARD: "Here it is Sunday — and that Kansan man's after an ad again!
ON THE HILL
"Well our food advertises itself --so just tell K.U. guys and gals we appreciate their business."
The most versatile basketball player in the Big Six conference, that's Bruce Voran, Kansas cage star.
Bruce Voran Loop's Best In Role of Utility Man
The good looking, black haired Jayhawk ace never plays less than two positions in any game and he doesn't really feel he's done a good night's work unless he plays all three positions.
In three games this year, Vorn has been in the starting lineup and each time he has started at a different position Against Oklahoma A. and M. he was a starter at guard. The second S.M.U. game found him starting at center and in the clash with Missouri he was in the starting lineup at forward.
BRICE VORAN
**Can Vioran I am Moving Shooter?**
Paradoxical. Vioran is too good to move when he is moving most of the time. Since Voran can play an position well, Coach F. C. Allen usually holds him out of the starting lineup until he determines where Bruce can be used to best advantage in that particular game.
The Jayhawk guard-center-forward ordinarily plays most of the remainder of the game after he is inserted in an contest. Frequently he plays more than most of the men who start the game.
A brilliant guard on defense, Vor-
an is a real headache for fast-forward. He is very speedy for his 180 pounds and as is quick as a snapping around him just it is not done.
Averaged 15 At Pretty Prairie
Bruce played at Pretty Prairie
High School where he was a sensa-
sion at center. He played the post
scoring position in the game and
him an average of better than 15
points a game his senior year.
Kansas does not use spot plays, with the result that Voran's pivot shots did not do him much good until he learned to hit them without using the backboard. Now he has the knuckle of doing that and throws them from the sides. This is his favorite trick at forward.
As a rebound man, Voran probably is as good as any six-foot player in the conference. His weight enables him to hold his position firmly and he goes up on the backboard in beautiful style.
Folk Dances For Halftime Entertainment
Thirty-two students from the social dancing class of the department of physical education will present a program of Cowboy Round and Western Square dances between halves of the Kansas-Nebraska basketball game Tuesday night. The program is under the direction: Miss Jane Byrn, instructor in the department of physical education.
The dances are done along with the currently popular fox-trot and offbeat steps of the modern ballroom. The dances will include such numbers as "Captain Jinks," "Rye Waltz," "Oh Susannah," "Nursurvous, and Take a Ladder." Ohio between the entertainment this season has included George Lupfer, student jugger; community singing led by Eugene Crabb, with Mrs. Dorothy Enlow Miller at the organ; the University band and baton twirlers, and Goa-Hi game between small boys.
Beat Nebraska!

Jayhawkers Work Hard For Huskers
★ Dr. Allen Sends Charges Through Pacces in Effort To Shake Them Out of Doldrums
Dr. F. C. Allen just about ran the legs off his Jayhawk cagers yesterday evening as he attempted to shake them out of the slump they've been in the last two games and prepare them for the tough assignment they have here Tuesday night with Nebraska.
Every man was hitting the hoop during the hour scrimmage, but it was a couple of days late to do any good in the Big Six standings. It took them to connect that led to their downfall at Columbus Thursday night.
Don Ehling tossed in nine baskets and Ralph Miller and Dick Harp were right behind with eight and in the practice game yesterday.
In the starting lineup Coach Harold Browne will have one 6 foot 7 inch center, and two 6 foot 4 inch guards. However, the team suffered a severe blow last week when Don Fitt, star of the outfit, underwent
an operation for the removal o water on the knee.
Harry Pitcaitleh, is leading the Huskers in scoring, but he doesn't possess the all around ability of Fitz. The Big Six basketball program is going to be cut short this week as the players begin to think of things academic. Tomorrow night Kansas State plays host to Iowa State, and the only other game besides the one here will mit Nebraska and Oklahoma at Norman Saturday night.
Kansas State---at Oklahoma City U.
an All-American center at Southern California in 1932, Williams also was hired here after coaching at Classen High School and Oklahoma City U.

Open Sesame! A Tale of the Forties
For decades men have sought that combination. Men in college have looked to the future and have searched for the elusive doorway steps which are delivered into unproven schemes for opening doorways to customers.

Finally the course of fate and history brought college men and business men together and made them dependent upon each other through the same combination!
down the years one combination arose and became recognized universally as the doorway between merchant and consumer.
