Sooner Coach Has High Scoring Court Quintet
- Offensive Is Big Threat of Coach Drake's Cagers With McNatt, Carbin and Musch In Lineup
They Lead The Invading Oklahomans
Coach Bruce Drake, youthful Oklahoma basketball tutor, will pit a star-studded and powerful scoring team against the Jayhawkers tomorrow nigh t. Drake's "Boy Scats" are now riding in first place in the conference with five wins and two osses.
Big Six Cage Lead Hinges On Kansas-Oklahoma Game
The Sooner's starting lineup consists of four juniors and one sophomore. And each member of the first team is a potential game-winner. There are really first-year seniors, and the Schoffler is scholarly a junior as a result of spending one year at an Illinois school before matriculating at Norman. The other new man on the Oklahoma team this year is Garnet Corbin, a former all-state high school court star from Classen high school in Oklahoma City.
JIMMY McNATT
The pivot post probably will be held by Vernon Mullen. Herb Scheffler, a big rangy 6 feet 3inch lad, is nursing an injured ankle and probably will not play. In the previous meeting between the two schools Scheffler controlled the rebounds off both backboards.
MARVIN MESCH
The forward line of the Sooners is undoubtedly the best scoring combination in the conference, Jimmy McNatt and Corbin. McNatt was selected for all conference honors last year and will probably repeat. In a game with Iowa State last Saturday night he made 29 points to break the Big Six record, and the team would finally hold by Omar "Bud" Boylan an Oklahoma boy who set the mark against Kansas several years ago.
Marvin Mesch, junior guard, is another one of the Sooner's candidates for all-conference recognition. Mesch rates as one of the best defensive men on the squad and also scores plenty of points with his famous two-handed jump shot. Teamed with Mesch is Marvin Snodgrass, a blond-headed junior, who moved up to a first team belt before having a second team. Snodgrass takes the position vacated by the graduation of Bill Martin, the "sparkplug" of last year's aggregation.
Roscoe Walker starter on last year's team has her to take a seat on the bench to make way for the sensational new men, Scheffler and Corbin. Oklahoma also has two other good men in Gene Roop and Ben Kerr, both juniors, who lettered last year, to use if the occasion should demand it. In fact the Sooner coach could start his second team without weakening the Oklahoma cause too much.
Bruce Drake is serving his first year in the basketball coaching profession this year. He accepted the position after Hugh McDermott voluntarily resigned last year. The team under him gave him training under McDermott.
He was the star of the powerful Sooner teams of 1928 and 1929. In the event he should pilot his team to a conference title he will be the first basketball coach to win a championship in his first year of coaching.
VERJAN MULLEN
Listen as the Oklahoma start lineup these five Sooner stars head the invading forces which men, Dr. F. C. Allen's Jaybawkers in Hoch auditorium tomorrow night. McNatt and Corbin will play forwards, Mullen will replace Scheller at the center post, while Snodgrass and Mesch will carry the defensive load at guard. This is virtually the same Oklahoma team that defeated the Jaybawkes at Lawrence
MAINTAIN SMOODGREAS
O. U. Question Mark
HERB SCHEFFLER - CENTER
star center of Bruce Drake's conference leading Oklahoma Sooners, who will be hampered in the game in Hooch audition to learn to make injury which probably will keep him out of the starting lineup.
Ise Tells Future Teachers to Learn Enjoyment of Life
We have become such a busy people that we have forgotten how to enjoy ourselves, said John Ise, professor of economics, in his talk Wednesday on the "Philosophical Problems in Consumption." Professor Ise addressed a group of about seventy at a tea given by Pl Lambda Theta, education sorority, in the Memorial Union building.
Professor Ise found the worrying of Americans distasteful. "We hardly have time to eat, and we certainly do not habit of conversation," he announced.
Ieas was of the opinion that participation in a great number of University activities is a good example of scattered energy. However, such business may keep us too busy to get into any trouble. It is certain that we would like to stir around so they will not have to sit down and bore themselves.
Ise believed that we have the faculty for making ourselves an uncomfortable as possible. For vacations we drive long distances in automobiles, go hunting in swamps, or sit on banks fishing.
"If people were left to themselves," said Ise, "they would adjust themselves to maximum comfort instead of being in a state of extreme activity." He added that although man has essential needs, most of his needs are fulfilled and he can no happier for their satisfaction. But he must race to acquire these needs so as to beat or impress his neighbors.

Jayhawks Must Win To Remain In Title Race
- Clash to Be Home Finale for Phog Allen's Crew; Kappelman, Corlis Senior Squadden
THE STARTING LINEUPS
Kansas Pos. Oklahoma
Miller Corbin
Ehling F McNatt
Allen Mullen
Harp G Mesch
Corlis G Snodgrass
With a good chance of gain- possession of the 1939 Big Six basketball crown as the reward for victory, and practical elimination of title hopes in a loss, Kansas' fighting Jayhawks will battle Oklahoma's spectacular "Boy Scats" in an all-important court clash tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium.
A Jayhawker victory Saturday night would throw the standings into a tie between Kansas and Missouri at five wins and three losses each. With tough Missouri in the way after Saturday night's home final, "Phog" Allen's cagers still would have a chance for a share in this bidding. A loss, however, means a finish in second or third place.
An Oklahoma victory means a sure share in the title spoils and probably the Big Six championship.
The Sooners will have two tail-enders, Nebraska and Kansas State to meet after the Kansas fracas and chances of defeat by these two opponents are at a mini-mum.
LYMAN CORLIS
Coach F. C.
Allen plans to
start Lyman
Coris, stellar senior, and Dick Harp. close guard junior, at guard;s Don Ebling and Ralph Miller, junior and sophomore, respectively, at forwards and sophomore Bob Allen at center. Howard Engleman, cotton-thatched scoring ace, is also slated to see plenty of service, but has apparently left his starting role to Eboli who turned in a great performance against Iowa State last Monday.
Anticipating the outstanding Big Six game of the season on the home court and one that may either make or break the Jayhawkers title hopes, there will be a rally held at the basement tomorrow night at 7 o'clock.
Advance ticket sales indicate a tremendous amount of interest for the last home game of the season between the Jayhawkers and Sooners, and the pre-game rally will roll off the time to an evening of basket-ball, hence the climax or climax of the Big Six race for Kansas.
Corli, Kansas' nominee for all-Big Six honors, and Harp have been drilled hard this week in preparations for the Oklahoma game. The bardement of Oklahoma's two sasens-
tornal forwards,
Barnet Corbin
and Jimmy McNatt
also aid in the
attack.
Kansas fans are hoping that Ebling will turn in another such performance as he displayed against the Cycles and that.
Miller and Allen will continue to play the good ball they have displayed most of the year.
Corlis, along with Lester Kappleman; substitute senior "quarterback" will be playing in his final home game of his basketball career. They are the only three-year lettermen on the squad.
