Henry To Oppose One of His Star Pupils
Gwinn Henry who gave Missouri a "golden era" in football, will send a team onto the field against the Tigers for the first time Saturday afternoon.
When the Jayhawkers line up for the opening kickoff they will be opposing a Missouri team coached by a man who played under Henry at Columbia, Don Fauru.
In 1925 the Tigers won the Missouri Valley championship and their season's record was six games won, one lost and one tied. The single loss was to Kansas. Fullback on that M.U. team was Don Faurot.
Other conference championships were won by Gwinn Henry's Tigers in 1924 and 1927. During the four
year stretch from 1924 through 1927, Henry's teams won 25 games, lost only 6 and tied 3.
Now finishing his first year as head coach of the Jayhawks, Gwinn Henry will face his former pupil, Faurot, for the first time Saturday. Macklin is a heavy favor to win the game, but the history of the series has two schools and the wily tactics of Coach Henry prevent anyone from conceding the game to the Tigers. Kansas bases its hopes for a victory Saturday on a dazzling airlift attack, one of the best means of accomplishing an upset. The Jayhawks boast three fine passers in Ralph Miller, Frank Bukaty, and Eldirc Cadwalader, who will do plenty of pitching against Missouri.
DON FAUROT-COACH
Miller, one of the finest passers in the country, has been able to play a total of only 34 minutes this season due to a knee operation this summer. However, when he has been in the game, he has been very effective. Of 26 passes he has thrown, 19 have been complete.
Opposing Miller and the other Kansas passers Saturday will be another great passer, Paul Christian, Missouri's ace. *Pitching Paul*'s passes have accounted for the staggering total of 775 yards this fall. He has thrown 120 passes, of which exactly half were complete.
Christman was very prominent in the Tiger victory over Kansas last year and will be watched closely by fans. Christman ran a punt back 78 yards.
for a touchdown against K.U, and tossed a pass to Starmer for the other tally.

HOLDEN LINES
By CLAVELLE HOLDEN, Kansan Sports Editor
The University basketball team has been invited to play in New York this season but, owing to a completed court schedule, athletic authorities turned down the offer. In the invitation, sent to Dr. F. C. Allen recently, the Jayhawkers were asked to play two games, one in White Plains, N.Y., and the other in Baltimore. A complete schedule of double-header college basketball games is being arranged for these two cities by Don Spencer, a New York city promoter who is furnishing a little competition for Ned Irish's court battles in Madison Square Garden.
For the two game series the Jayhawkers would have received an $800-guarantee and a 15 percent privilege if gate receipts reached a certain point. The letter stressed the educational benefits the squad members would receive by taking the long eastern trip. Thus far the following schools have signed contracts to play: Oregon, Stanford, Duke, Oklahoma A. & M., Florida, Yale, Navy, and Loyola. (The Jayhawkers have regularly scheduled games with Oklahoma A. & M, and Loyola.)
It was announced last fall that Kansas would meet Ohio State on the gridiron in 1940, but it appears now that no such game will take place. (To which we say—Ah-men. The Buckeyes are one of the strongest teams in the Big Ten and are definitely out of the Jayhawkers' class.) Conflicting schedules will probably result in the cancellation. Pittsburgh announced yesterday that the Panthers have signed a contract to play Ohio State on Sept 26, the day Kansas thought they were going to play the Buck eyes.
According to a Columbus paper, Kansas made arrangements to play on a certain date, and then notified Ohio State authorities a conference game had been scheduled for that date and asked to be released from contract. Athletic Director Henry has been trying to settle the matter. He wrote to Ohio State recently, but has not yet received a reply.
Comparative scores mean nothing this year. By all rights they should still be adding up the touchdowns Michigan should have scored on Illinois, but the Illini won and gave the dope bucket a boot.
Here are the comparative scores of Kansas and Missouri in the Conference this fall:
The downtown quarterbacks didn't give Jim Yeager's Cyclones aghost of a chance to defeat K-State, but when the final whistle sounded Iowa State was ahead 10-0. (Wildcats defeated Kansas 27-6 and the Jayhawkers won from 1-State 14-0, which should have made K-State 35 points better than the Cyclones!)
Kansas 14, Iowa State 0.
Kansas 7, Oklahoma 27.
Kansas 6, Kansas State 26.
Brasica 7.
Missouri 21, Missouri 6.
Missouri 7, Oklahoma 6.
Missouri 9, Kansas State 7.
Missouri 27, Nebraska 13.
Which makes it look bad for the Jayhawkers. But let us present an argument for the Common and Plain.
The Jayhawkers lost to the "22 points - better than" Missouri' Nebraska team 7-0, which by good old mathematical reasoning makes Kansas 15 points better than Don Dauroff's Tigers.
Jayhawkers. But let us present an argument for the Crimson and Blue. Missouri lost to Ohio State 19-0. Ohio State beat Minnesota 23-20, making Minnesota 16 points better than the Tigers. Nebraska bested Minnesota 6-0, which of course proves the Huskers are 22 points better than the Bengals from Columbia.
(For the sake of accuracy and not ARGUMENT, we announce that in actual piay Missouri trounced Nebraska 27-13.)
