KANSAS SQUAD AWAITS BATTLE WITH COLORADO
Light Concluding Practices Including Skull Session Topped Off by Stress on Pass Defense
OUTWEIGH INVADERS
With all pre-game preparations completed, "Ad" Lindsay and his current Jahyawk gridron crew await their first taste of outside competition tomorrow after an 2:06 break when the team returns from practice on the opposite end of Kansas field.
Kansas Line Heaviest
A colorful ceremony of dedication of the newly-named stadium field will precede the opening game, with Ralph McGuire in charge. The commander of the American Legion and a member of the Kansas board of regents, making the dedication address. Many other notables of American Legion attend the event and present an act in the ceremony.
Tomorrow's season opener will be against opposition of unquestioned strength, the westerners boating veterans for every position. Advance reports from the Colorado school have been of the optimistic variety, especially concerning the backfield situation. The Coloradors will, however, be outweighed in the game. South Saunders is expected to use, averages only 180 pounds. Only one man in the starting lineup weights more than 200 pounds.

New Student Activity Ticket Swells
Attendance at Football Games
Without the Services of a Coach. Thirteen Players Had a Victorious Season
Ames, Iowa, Sept. 28—All indications point to a crowd of about 7,000 spectators for Iowa State's opening game with Luther with Ladder on State Field Saturday.
Kansas crushed its first decade of football by having an ever-evictorious team in 1898 under the tutorage of Fielding H. "Hurry-Up" Yoy. Yet lapsed later and produced the wonderful teams of Michigan and at least two others, University. It might be well worth remembering that Benny Owen, former coach at Oklahoma
The new activity tax in force at the Cyclone institution has provided every student with a ticket for the game. That, and the announcement by the athletic department that all school children will be admitted free, is expected to bring one of the largest first-game crowds in recent years.
K-Angles to Have Guests
Demand for tickets for all of Iowa State's home games, particularly the one with Iowa on Oct. 20, is increasing rapidly. The demand for the Hawkeye-Cyclone battle has been so brisk, that the west side of the stadium has been sold out to the 30-yard lines, and the cost side to the 60-yard markers.
Mhattan, Kama, Sept. 28- Tentative arrangements on "guest day" for the 433 Kansas State football season call for presence of high school binds of the state at the game with the University of Missouri, Nov. 10, and for Boy Scouts at the game with Iowa State College, Nov. 24.
In 1894, the present football field was given to the University by Colonel John J. McCook of Lawrence. The field still bears his name. To celebrate this event the University authorities authorized H.W. Cowan, a minister from St. Joseph, to act as director of physical education and chaplain and to become the first paid football coach of this school, Mr. Cowan having during his college days at Princeton, had plenty of football knowledge and experience.
It was in the fall of 1850 that thirtieth he-men (they had to be) reported for the first football practice. These pioneers of Kansas football had no school, and it was not until a pariment acted as manager of the team for its first season of play.
The equipment was very heavy and poorly padded. There were no headgears or shoulder-pads. The University furnished only twelve or thirteen players, so a few were required for a new player to report unless he could turn himself on his own equipment. The first form of head-gear was introduced about 1454. It consisted of a belt that covered the front of the helmet and one sleeve across the top of the head. Equipment was limited because the University awarded the suits to the players upon graduation (or retirement) along with their diplomas. Needles were also great as a dress-up aid.
During the first decade from 1890-1895, Kauan had 54 games, lef 18 and beil 2. This triumph was at the expense of the University of Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Missouri and some smaller schools in this territory. Perhaps the outstanding victory came in 1892 by the sense of 29-4 and of leuws in 1895 and 1857 by respective scores of 67-9 and 62-6.
For four seasons the team was directed by different faculty members, including Dr. E. M. Hopkins of the English department. The games that were scheduled these first four years were from 1974 to 1980 and present date is Lawrens High School.
HARRIS
In the gay nineteen, college spirit was not remandant that it was necessary to construct a team to win the football teams. This force did not always remain standing during the battle of a Kansas-Missouri game. Interest in football continued to rise one year after.
This Conference lasted and grew until 1928 when six of its members, including Kansas, withdrew to form the Big Six Conference of today.
over Notre Dame by a sword of 24-5 in 1904. All of this lead to urge Kansas to take part in the organizing and becoming a member of the Missouri Valley Conference which was organized in 1908.
It was during the period of Missouri Valley play that Kansas became more famed and scheduled games with Army.
Injured, viewed teams of the country, leading teams of the country, and for Kansas football became very evident in the years which followed the World War. It was then that from 50 to 120 men answered the coach's call for opening practice. Equipment was perfected; stadiums were built, stars were recognized roles were played, coaches earned the game and still possesses the thrills of the pay numbers.

Expense Lies in Loss of Ticket Revenue Allen Says
Broadcasting of University of Kansas football games will cost the athletic management $1,000 a game in lost revenue, or $5,000 for the season, said F. C. Allen, director of athletics this morning.
"Further evidence that broadcasting privileges are valuable is shown," Dr. Allen said, "by the fact that Henry Ford has just agreed to pay $100,000 for the exclusive privilege to broadcast the games of the baseball world's series. The University of Kansas has broadcast this year, and yet the athletic management has never received one thin dime, either from listeners or broadcaster."
Kansas, in common with the other Big Six schools, did not broadcast football games last year, but there was so much demand from alumni and friends of the University, at a distance, that the University, when the Big Six lifted the ban
on broadcasts, decided to return to the air.
"I am anxious as anybody to please the distant alumni," said Dr. Allen. "but I am old-fashioned and a businessman—a non-profit corporation—ought to pay its obligations to its bondholders. Nebraska has returned this year, and has sold, I am told."
"We have tried to meet the reduced purses of our patrons by reduction in prices, but we still don't offer this Colorado game, the top price is $1.65, including tax. In addition to these prices, they are free."

Jayhawk Juniors Organized
Grade School Children to See Games at Reduced Prices
Thayer Boardman, gr, Kansas City, Mo, has plans almost completed for the organization of the Jayhawk winters. More than 300 Jayhawk Junior tickets have been sold to grade school children of Lawrence. These tickets include admission to the five home football games and the Kansas Roe College game. A group will select a cheerleader to lead the group of youth Jayhawkers at the game with the University of Colorado tomorrow. The group will be coated in a special section which will be roped off for them at the north end of the stadium.
Athletic Board to Meet Tonight
The University Athletic Board, which will have its quarterly meeting tonight, will include among those present two new members elected last spring by the Men's Student Council, Dicla Wella, c37, and Gummar Mykland, c34. George Nettles of Parsons, who was nominated by the alumni association for President, will chair financial matters which will comprise the principal business discussed.
Price alone means nothing without the support of provable worth—and surely of later satisfaction!
