The Huskies, with five games won and two lost, remain a very definite threat to the Kansas队. While they may not be able to topple the Jayhawkers from first place, they still have a chance to spoil the perfect record built up by the Kansas men. At present, the Kansas team remains one of the few major college teams in the country with an undefeated record. The University at the hands of Tempe. Crucial Game With Nebraska Apparently the real test for the Jayhawks is to play Nebraska the team goes to Lincoln to play Nebraska The two teams are almost on a par in their scoring abilities, Kansas has averaged 37.5 points per game and Nebraska 371. However, Kansas holds opponents to 23.9 points per game while Nebraska's opponents have averaged 30.3 point. The 36 points scored by Oklahoma against the Jayhawkers last week were scored against the team this year. Three of the six teams in the conference are definitely out of the race for first place, as they have lost more games than Kansas has remaining in its schedule. Oklahoma is in third place, having won two games out of five and have a chance to see they will have a more crack at the Jokwahers. Missouri and Iowa State are tied for fourth place, each having won two games out of six. The Cyclones have played both of their games with the Kansas team, but the Tigers still have one remaining. Kansas State in the Cellar Kansas State, whom Kansas meets next Saturday night here, is the sole possessor of the cellar position, and will be the first to despite the fact that it possesses two of the leading scarcers in the conference, Groves, who was all-conference center last year, and Al Burris. Although the Wildcats have been doing so well for years, a point where they may be expected to cut lose any minute. If the time should ever come when their two high scarcers should be "hot" at the same time, it would be too bad for their opponents.

Clyde Coffman Comes Here For Short Workouts Over Weekends Alumnus Decathlon Star Is Training for Olympics Clyde Coffman, former University of Kansas track star, is beginning in earnest to train for the Olympic tryouts which are to be held soon. Although now employed in the State Highway Commission office at Tupeka, Coffman manages to come to Lawrence on weekends for short workouts. Because of the cramp put on in his training by bad weather lately, Coffman has been forced to work out on the inside track at the Kansas stadium. In order to enable him to practice pole wailing last Saturday, he set up the standards, bundled up and ran a few lengths of rope for him, then immediately to vault, using a pole which had been hurriedly brought from the warmth of the stadium. three kernels in Troyons At the time, that university that the University of Kansas will have three of its former students prominent in Olympic tryouts. Other than Coffman, Glenn Cunningham and Elwyn Dees are preparing for a try for Olymphus. Three Kansans in Tryouts Cunningham, who was defeated by both gene Venzek and Joe Mangan in the Wannamaker mille recently, will try trying for a comeback in the travails. Lawson Robertson of Pennsylvania, head Olympic coach, says, "Cunningham, regardless of that setback, still is our greatest miler and potentially the best bet for the Olympic 1500." Robertson declares that Cunningham's record surpasses any other over the last three years surpassed by any of any other miler, here or abroad. Fears Milers Run Too Much Robertson fears that the milers will injure their Olympic chances by too much wearing competition among themselves before the tryouts. The campaigns ahead of the milers look like a chance to win a mile of the Boston Athletic Association; next Saturday, the Baxter mile on the New York Athletic Club card; the National A.A.U. championships, the eastern intercollegiate, and the Knights of Columbus meet. Venkze, Robertson's own pupil, failed to make the Olympic games years ago after just such a campaign. Kansas' third competitor for Olympic honors, Dees, is now serving as trainer for the University of Kansas basketball team and finding time for working out also. Cold weather is also hindering his work in training, but he plans to get into fine shape soon. The Kansas City team would have served as a good trial for both Coffman and Dees, has been indefinitely postponed. JAYHAWK WRESTLERS LOSE TO CORNHUSKER TEAM, 32-1 The University wrestling team journeyed to Lincoln last Friday night and took the short end of a 32-0 score. The Nebraska Cornhuskers seemingly were getting revenge for the basketball defeat the Jayhawks forced upon them a few weeks ago. The Kansas team was without a man in either the 118-pound or the 128-pound class and in entering the match gave Nebraska the odds. The team did not return to Lawrence until Monday night because of the heavy snow that made it impossible to travel on the highways. Childs, Anneberg, McComwell and Brunn lost close decisions while Boutz and Ericsson lost their matches by falls to the Husker grapplers. The team will go to Columbia Friday night and try and win a trip to Missouri at the expense of Missouri. Read the Daily Kansan want ads.
