Huskers Can Spoil Claim To Clear Title
A Kansas Loss Would Give Sooners a Chance To Tie for Big Six Championship
When the Kansas Jayhawkers tort out onto the court at Lincoln Saturday night to meet the fourth-place Nebraskans, they will be facing their last year's Waterloo, though in a slightly different position.
Last year's situation, with the league-leading Jayhawkers, holding 7 victories and 1 loss, facing the second-place Cornhuskers, with 6 wins and 2 losses, gave the Nebraskas a chance to pull into a first-plACE tie. They took full advantage of that chance, and in a rough-and-tumble game, pulled the Jayhawkers to their level. 37-32.
Kansas Meets Huskers and Tigers
The Jayhawks had lost an early-season tilt to Kansas State in an overtime upset, ushered in the Nebraska had dropped games to both Kansas and Oklahoma in early contests. Each team had a victory on the conference schedule, and Nebraska went on to trim Iowa State, while Kansas polished off on Missouri to end the conference race in a tie.
This season has a familiar appearance, as Kansas has this one game with the Nebraska co-champions to pass, and the final tilt with Missouri. Should the Jayhawks lose to Nebraska Saturday night, they will be dropped into a tie with Oklahoma and will need to beat Missouri to be assured of a co-championship with Oklahoma this year.
Since the beginning of the Big Si conference races in 1929, Nebraska and Kansas have been at each other's throats for first place in four of the 10 seasons of play. In 1931, II and 1936, Kansas ended up in the top stall, with Nebraska pressing at second position; and in the past season, Kansas and Nebraska ended in a deadlock for first place. This year, Kansas would be in competition for the first spot, but can do damage to the Jayhawks by bouncing them out of an undisputed championship.
Records in Favor of Kansas
In looking back over the past records since 1929, this seems to be Kansas' year to take both Nebraska titls, having already passed the first of this season. In 1929, Nebraska won both games, but in 1930, Kansas came back to take both games. From there, the uniform appearance seems like clockwork. In 1931, the games were split, 1 and 1; the next two years gave both to Kansas; and 1937 saw another split of the two games. If the records are not to change, give both titles to Kansas. In the 9% seasons of Kansas-Nebraska play, Kansas has won 14 to Nebraska's 5, and a victory Saturday night would give the Joyhawkers three-fourths of the games since the conference was initiated.
Kansas Geological Survey Issues Mineral Circular
Geology of Rawlins and Decatur counties, Kansas, with special reference to water resources, is the title of a mineral resources circular (No. 7), just issued by the Kansas Geological Survey from its headquarters at the University. The bulletin was written by his brother, who he left some months ago on a leave for special work in South America but has just come from the printer.
The bulletin points out that even in the drought of 1934 the water situation did not become critical in these northwestern Kansas counties, and adds that drilling has disclosed a considerable increase in depth. This deeper water, and in some parts of the two counties, water from shallower wells, is being used successfully for irrigation projects.
Along the Sideline
By Dale Heckendorn, c'39 Guest Conductor
Fred Praille again headlines this column, this time with mention of the first all-something or other honors that have come his way this season. The members of the Southwestern University team have selected their all-opponents team for the present season, and at one guard position is Praille. Praille's running mate at guard is Chet Mitchell, star of the Fort Hays State football team, and Arkansas, one of the outstanding players in the Southwest conference. The forward posts are held down by Keth, Warrensburg Teachers, and Krueger, Oklahoma A. and M.
In commenting on Pralea's selection the Winfield Courier has the following to say: "Fred Pralear, star KU, guard, is the other defensive player. Pralear is fine on defense, and is one of the leading scorers of the Big Six conference. He is one of the main cogs of Dr. F. C. Allen's University of Kansas team, leader in the Big Six race at the present."
Richard Pine, a former Kansas student who resides in New York City, was an interested spectator at the New York Athletic games last Saturday night. Pine, an acquaintance of Glenn Cunningham, sent the N.Y.A.C. game program back yesterday. He asserts that an error was made clocking in at 12 p.m., the relay in which Cunningham carried the baton under the colors of the New York Curb Exchange.
Some timers caught the Curb exchange fly in 0:50 flat, but Pine writes that a correction had been made and the accurate time was 0:49.6. In the feature Baxter Mile all three watches gave the same time of 4:08.6 which is unusual as many timers have difficulties in showing like times while clocking sprinters in the shorter races.
While deliving into past track events the British Empire games held at Sydney, Australia, are brought to mind. Many new Empire records were established and one recognized world mark was sur-passed two weeks ago as 30,000 cheering spectators were given a thrill of a life time by athletes from every part of the empire upon which the sun never sets. Australia placed first in the great cinder carnival while a strong Canadian team finished second.
Lavary, South African hurdle, stole the show as he swept home ahead of a fast field to win the 120-yard high hurdles in 41.4 flat to beat the recognized mark of 14.14 lift by oFrest Towns of Georgia. Lavary's time failed to equal Towns mark of 6.13.7 set at Olio, Norway, but O'Reilly of the University of Michigan has also been caught in 6.14 at the United States Western Conference Championships last May.
James Alford of Wales breezed through the mile in 41.6 to shatter Jack Lovebok's record of 4.128 established in 1934. The 440-yard dash was won by Bell Roberts of England and he recorded in the record-attempting smashing spree.
The pole vault and the shot put marks full far below the standard of United States weight men. In breaking the pole vault record of 12 feet, 9 inches, the winner cleared the bar with a jump of 38 feet. The champ tossed the iron ball 47 feet, 6 inches, while the second place man could only hit 45 feet, 9 inches.

Two of Best Games This Season Remain
Battle With Huskers Important in Big Six Race; Tiger Clash Is Traditionally 'Big'
Two of the best games of the season remain on the basketball schedule of the Jayhawkers. Nebraska's Cornhuskers will be played at Lincoln Saturday and next Thursday Missouri, the Jayhawks' traditional rival, will come to Lawrence for the final game of the season.
The game with Nebraska will be the most important of the two to the standpoint of conference standings. The 3-1 victory-Missouri game is "The Big Game."
The clash with the Tigers will be the 98th meeting of the two schools in basketball. Kansas has won 60 of the games and Missouri 37. The game will provide Jayhawk fans a final chance to see their league leading team in action, Kansas not having played at home since Feb. 7.
The ticket sale for the Missouri game is the best for any of the Kansas home games this year and the biggest crowd of the season is expected. At total of 1200 seats at 75 cents are on sale, but orders should be placed immediately to obtain the best seats, according to a statement by Earl Falkenstein, secretary of the athletic department.
Immediately ahead of the Jayhawk jaggers lies the tough game with Nebraska. The Cornhuskers downed Kansas at Lineback last year and will be out to repeat that performance. Beating B娜斯拉 on its own court is far different from beating her away from home.
This was demonstrated in the Huskers' games with Oklahoma several weeks ago. Nebraska took a 48-33 beat at the hands of Kansas at Lawrence, lost to Oklahoma at Norman and then four days later smashed Oklahoma 52-42 at Lincoln. Saturday's game will be the final game of the season for Nebraska and the last game of the college careers of four OL players: Bob Purson, for OL Fred Ehough and Elmer Dohrmann. It is expected that these four veterans will put everything into the game in an effort to make up for their disappointing showing to date.
Only two Jayhawks will be playing their last game against Nebraska, Fred Pralle, guard, and Sylvester Schmidt, center.

New York, Feb. 23. —(UP)—Baseball's armchair pilots sady predict that the pennant hopes of the Detroit Tigers rely on the doubtful return to form of pitcher Lynwood "Schoolboy" Rowe. But.-Manager Mickey Cochrane and company point to the 19 other pitchers listed on their roster for 1538, cross their numbers and chorus, "There's our flag."

Detroit Expects Pitching Staff To Be 'Tops'
PHONE K.U. 66
Taking Cochrane at his word, a survey of the present pitching lineup, with a nucleus of four veterans, shows that even if Rowe does fall, the Detroiters' hurling corps is strongest in the American League.
Gill turned in 11 victories to top the group and should be a potent factor in the Tiger drive, Polffenberger, who is already listed among the Tiger holdouts, won 10 and lost 2 after joining the club in June. His ultimately good work last year made him certain of a starting position.
Wade Upset Johnny Allen
Wade and Coffman each won 7 games. Wade's chief claim to fame is his one-hit, 1-0 victory over Johnny Allen in the last game of the season in 1937. Allen had won 15 straight and was attempting to
Bad Year for Bridges
Not grouped as established veterans but nevertheless among the more experienced hurriers are George Pottenberger and Jake Wade.
Kennedy, for whom Cochrane traded the popular Gerald Walker and subsequently weathered a storm of abuse from irate Dertoff fans, should easily be one of the pitchers in the loop. In his freshman yard with the White Sox, he won 11 games and during the next season—1936—was a sensation. He won 21 and lost 9, to finish second to
Righthanders Elden Auker and Roxie Lawson top the quartet on the basis of the averages. Auker, who won 17 and lost 9 last year, topped the staff in the earned run ratings with a mark of 38.8. Lawson, with 18 wins against 7 defeats, had the highest percentage with 720.
The slender veteran, Tommy Bridges, and Vern Kennedy, former ranking righthander of the Chicago White Sox, complete the Big Four. In 1937 Bridges had one win with his team and two with the Tigers. He won 15 and lost 12 and finished 18th in league earned run ratings.

The Big Apple hasn't entirely disappeared as the University of Kansas dancers may have imagined. At a recent ice carnival at Princeton, after the more serious and colorful events had passed by, the students gathered club play on an exhibition of the Big Apple with shines by the more apt of the skaters. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs also appeared in one of the spectacles, with races between the Dwarfs.
Dana X. Bible has now received another kind of publicity as evidenced by the fact that the Daily Texan gave him a big write-up when he refused to play the part of the sultan in a recent campus production where his football team was cast in the role of a harem. Guess he's too busy with the 15 sections of the game he has didTexas in order frankly to dig up football prospects and sell them on the high ideals of the University of Texas. An alumnus is at the head of each section.
