Jayhawkers In Determined Drive
Coaches Are Not Afraid Of Overconfidence as Tilt With Kansas State Draws Near
The game Saturday with the Kansas State Wildcats will be a crucial test for the Kansas Jayhawks, now in the midst of their most determined drive for the Big Six team that secured, in winning the title.
A defeat for the Jayhawkers would throw Nebraska into the lead and make them almost certain to win the championship, an exclusive championship. On the other hand, if Coach Ad Lindsay can keep his squad from letting down, Kansas would need only a tie with Missouri to be certain of at least sharing the win.
Keep Players Keyed Up With such importance attached to Saturday's fray, the coaching staff realizes that the job cut out for them is to keep the players keyed to the game against the mighty Cmuchkens.
Overconfidence is not fearful, for every Kansas rooter realizes that the Aggies are going to be plenty tough, and perhaps no one realizes it more than the players themselves. Reports all season have indicated that the K-Staters have some of the best material in the conference and that their mediocre showing so far has resulted from a failure of this experiment, which will be expected. Chances are that the Wildcats will find their spark this week and will play the game they are capable of doing.
If this happens, and if the Jay-hawkers maintain the pace they set last week, the Memorial stadium will be the scene of a real battle, such as the one two years ago when Kansas managed to hold a 3 to 2 lead up to the last of the game and then scored a touchdown in the final moments to increase the margin to 9 to 2.
That year the Agnies were led by their great fullback, "Red" Elder. This year they will be headed by Howard Cleveland, hard-running, shifty quarterback, who is termed by many the best backfield man in the Big Six this year. Seconding Cleveland will be a new Kansas State star, sophomore fullback Hackney, appropriately called the "Mustang," who has shown such promise as to make the most avid Wildcat fans forget the past feats of "Rambling Ralph" Graham and "Red" Elder.

Workouts for the second this week
are designed of drill on fundamentals.
Charging, blocking,
passing, and pass defense occupied
most of the time at the practice session last night.
Right now the squad is in the best physical shape it has been in since the first game of the season, and the coaches hope to be able to take full advantage of this fact Saturday. Chitwood turned his ankle in last night's drill but should be ready to go by Saturday.
The squand is in good shape, with only Hardcure and Boisleave being absent from practice last night. Boisleave is expected to return to uniform this afternoon, and it is possible will be out older later in the week.
Used Car Figures Amazing
Indianapolis—(UP) — Two-thirds of the motorists in the United States have never purchased a new car. There are 25,000,000 car owners in the United States, yet only 9,000,000 have bought new cars.

Along the Sideline By William Fitzgerald, c'39 Kansas Sports Editor
The Kansas-Nebraska tie showed he Huskers out of the first ten teams in the nation, the Associated Press press showed yesterday. Nebraska dropped to number eleven position in comparison with the sixth-ranked Oklahoma team.
The number one and two teams changed places as Pitt took over the top position and California dropped to second as a result of their scoreless tie with Washington. Alabama is in third place with Fordham in fourth. Right now it looks like Pitt or Alabama, and California in the Rose Bowl, but a lot can happen (probably will) in the next two weeks.
Baylor took the biggest drop. When Dana Bible's downrodden Texas team upset the previously unbaten Bears they skidded from four place all the way down to thirteenth place. He skidded alone for a week or two, now that he has disposed of the Bears. (Some joke, eh followers!)
Saturday should produce some fancy cavorting on Memorial field with such backs as Howard Cleveland, Elmer Hackney and others from Manhattan doing their tricks along with Max Replogle, Clarence Doughton and company. In fact, Cleveland's cavorting could be very serious, as he described during a game at Manhattan. The Agnieszka had a Roman holiday that day and will certainly be trying to repeat Saturday.
There really seems to be little reason why they shouldn't repeat. The Kansas team will be almost the same as the one that couldn't catch Cleveland last year, and Howard hasn't slowed down or the Jayhawkers haven't speeded up much. The answer lies in the new spirit the
Kansas team has been displaying the Lindsay charges haven't been laying back and letting their opponents pin their ears back without an argument. The Jayhawkers have even done quite a lot of ear pinning on their own hook. Last year the players did that, but what thing and that what they got. Saturday they will be looking for a scrap and that's what Kansas is going to put up. The answer seems to lie in whether Howard Cleveland has a enough on the ball to run wild anyway. If he has, the Jayhawkers will not be in a place where he's game one. One thing is certain, Kansas will be facing a more versatile back than they last weekend.
Jayhawk Jolts: The announcement of the death of Robert Ardrey, former track star, was a blow to his many friends here on the Hill. In Ardrey and Roy Noble, Kansas had two of the top-notch pole vaulters in the Big Six two years ago. Ardrey death followed a prolonged illness.
High Blood Pressure Leads to More Deaths
St. Louis, norm. 9.-(UP)-Degen creative heart disease is increasing in the United States, according to Dt. Fred M. Smith, of the University of Iowa School of Medicine, but the cause of the disease is unknown.
"We also know the disease in some instances is hereditary." Dr. Smith told the International Medical Assembly here.
"Hypertension—high blood pressure—overworks the heart, imposes upon it an extra load, produces a breakdown of the arteries, and an ultimate collapse of the heart." Dr. Fletcher's conclusion is cause of hypertension is unknown.
Basketball Drills Start
Varsity and Freshmen
Start Practice Monday
Under Coach Allen
Treatment of high blood pressure, Dr. Smith said, involves plenty of rest and sleep and "keeping the patient's mind off his aliment."
More than twenty players have been reporting to Dr. Forrest C. Allen for basketball practice. Official practice started Monday and there is a scheduled game between the varsity and fresh, Dec. 3.
More players will report for practice when the football season is over and a team with a dash and drive will face the prospect for Kansas this year.
