"MUST TIGHTEN DEFENSE'
Dr. Allen Disgruntled Over High Scoring Average of Jayhawker's Opponents in Present Season
KANSANS SCORE HIGH
KANSAS GREYHOUNDS
TO MEET FLYERS FRIDAY
Something is going to have to be done about the Kansas basketball defense at once, says Dr. F. C. Allen, basketball coach at the University of Kansas.
Friday evening, Feb. 1, has been designated as Suburban Night at the Pla-Mor Ice Palace, when the Kansas City "Greyhound" winners of the American Hockey Association title last year and permanent holders of the Skelly trophy, meet their state rivals the St. Louis "Fleyers" in another slam-bang ice battle.

When Kansas State scored 37 points Saturday night in an attempt to surpass Kansas's 43, it was the first time in three years that a team, conference or non-conference, had scored that many points against the Jayhawkers. The last previous time was in 1932 when Iowa State won a game from Kansas 37 to 29.
Kansas State's 37, coupled with the 36 Oklahoma scored to win the second game here, and the 29 Missouri made against Kansas's 40 there the first of the season, have been getting too far above the 31 opponents customarily been allotting to opponents.
Opponents Average 27.5
In fact, in the 17 games played in the 1934 season, 26 was the maximum obtained by any opponent, and that only once, by Oklahoma in a non-conference game. Four games went to 25 for the opponents and three to 24.
"Keep the opponent's scoring average in the 'teens'. Dr. Allen urges his men. The average points per game for our opponents is almost double what it should be this year, declares the coach. To date, the Kansas players have allowed their opponent 27.5 points per game as compared to all-season average of 25.3 for last year.
The average opponents score for the last few years are as follows
25.2
26.4
23.6
99.5
In conference play this season, Kansas has not only scored more points than any other member of the Big Six, but also has the highest average score, an even 39 points. Oklahoma's average per game is second, at 36-5 1/2. Nebraska 34 2-3; and Iowa State fourth with an even 32.
On defense, Iowa State has a slight shade, one-sixth of a point to be exact, the Cyclones having held opponents to an average of 27.1–2 while Kaukauna' op-ed Oklahoma. One of the heavy-sectoring teams, has held opponents to 33.1-6 points.
Ratio Is Indicator
The real strength of a team is the ratio between its offense, as represented by its own scoring, and its defense, as represented by the lowness of the opponent's scores. This ratio, or the number of points scored to the opponents' 1 point, is in the lead, with a point and three sevenths by opponents. Iowa State is next with one and one-seventh, and Oklahoma has 1.09. Others scored less than opponents.

With the Kansas home season coming into a close on Feb. 11, the Jayhawkers are faced with a severe test as they fight for another Big Six championship.

With the showing so far not so brilliant, Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletes and basketball coach, realizes that something must be done especially about the Kansas defense. When Kansas State scored 78 (29), it surpassed its surpasses Kansas 43, it was the first time in three years that a team, conference or non-conference, had scored that many points against the Jayhawks. The last time was in 1932 when Iowa State defeated Kansas 37 to 29. Kansas State, Oklahoma, has now above the scores Kansas has originally allotted to opponents.

Filson says: "After a long 'lab' session, dissecting and drawing detailed diagrams... spending hours over a microscope... you get pretty well worn out. I keep a pack of Camelis beside me. For, with such exacting work, it's a great relief to smoke a Camel any time I'm tired and quickly experience a delightful return in energy. And boy! Do those Camelis taste good!"
