Frame in Preparation
for Scrimimage
Tomorrow
For tomorrow afternoon's scrimmage, which will begin at 3 o'clock, Coach Adrian Lindsey will pick teams from his squad of 33
Members of the white team will be Antonio, Tonyo, Glinnamangue, Lina Otero, Lucas Laiu, Laub, Liley, Linton, Laden, Miner, Mitchell, Moore, Peterson,
Members of the red team: Clawson, Decker, Dees, Dews, Farris, Harris, Hammers, Hammers, Kell, Lamster, McCall, DeanNemish, Oe Nesimann, Pits, Phelps, Seigle, Stuckey, White, and Wakins.
In addition to this work, the coach put his men through a series of offensive drills. The damp weather failed to drive the gridsiders inside, and instead they worked out on a specially designed drum crew had hooked up. The machine was built to accommodate two line-men who presumably would be taking out a single opposing lineman. The machine lasted through about half an hour, but was unable to withstand the terrific assaults of the heavier Kansas forwards.
The workout that Couch Adrian Lindsey gave his Jayhawkers last night was a scriumption in every sense of the word except that no tackles were made. The blocking and running of plays brought into action of the bodily contact that a regular scheduled game would.
Another Stiff Drill
Lindsey indicated that the workout this afternoon would be as intensive as yesterday's. Both days' work were the final bits of preparation for tomorrow afternoon's exercise which will form an adequate check on his material.
Up to now the starting line-up has remained somewhat of a guess, but gradually the outstanding players are coming to light.
At center, either Watkins or Phillips will be the starter. For guards McCall and Sklar are outstanding, and Deca and Dean Neasmith seem to have the edge on tackles. Clyde Mcleod, 230-pound sophomore, may get the call, but the 15-year-old junior is sure to be a first string substitute in the event he does not start.
Need Another End
At end, Mile Chawson is sure of a place, having been moved over from tackle where he started for the Jay-hawkers for the past two years. The other end is about a toe up among Dick Wells and Gray.
In the backfield, the puzzle is as
mystifying as ever. Unable to know
what combination would work the best,
Lindsey is still experimenting. The
situation tomorrow may clear up the
situation somewhat, at least Lindsey
hoops so.
White, Stukey, Neumith, Leander, Ginnacheng, Antonio, Hangell, Kapp, Peterson, Harris–take your choice, only require a starting place for Gle who apparently be the best backbone to the Jollawakens have this year.
Jayhawk Jabs
J. MERLE TICKYFORD, 33
Each year Fiction House, Inc., issues an illustrated Football Annual, which is admittedly "A Coast-to-Coast Review of the (year's) Football." Included in the features of this now-grown-popular magazine are the Stars of the Year; the All-American Checklist; grid reviews the Magazine; The West, The Coast, The Midwest; The Middle East; the Last,
Each year every team of note in the United States comes in for its share of glory and comment, Kansas among them. The Jayhawks, rather weaker in some departments than usual this year, nevertheless, have caused some comment in this magazine that is worth reprinting.
First, in a section entitled "The Stuns of 34", in which only outstanding players are listed, Milo Clowen, third-year letterman on the Jayhawk squad, a former tackle this season converted into an end, comes in for his share of praise, along with such other Big Six Stats, Oklahoma, tackle, and Franklin Meer. At center, Clowen is given a big hand Says the Football Annual of him:
"The coaches who directed the destinies of football teams that engaged the

The Illustrated Football Annual, a magazine which each year lits true outstanding players of the past season and those who are expected to star in the current one, names four Kansuars on the All-America check list. this year: Oleo among the quarterbacks, Ewyn Dews as a guard, and Milton Clowson as a tackle.
In a supplementary list, which includes the sophomores who are expected to star during the 1844 season, the name of Clyde Moore, giant turtle, appears on the cover.
Kansas Jayhawks in early contest has fall—all among them, they remember, was Notre Dame—advised their quarterback Michael Mrehringer was not Peter Mrehringer they warned, as was much unhelped full kick on as the Olympic wrestling mat.
Lindsey hole Milton Clawson into the first game—there Milton remained throughout the 10-game campaign to harass and confound every team that faced him. He all over coached Lindsey remarked, "He is the great touch tackler I ever coached."
"Run 'em off the other tackle!" the saches counselled but there they errd. . Without expecting very much. Ad
"Milo Clowen is big and rough and powerful. He weighs 155 and looks like a football man. . . All last season he seldom gave enemy back a chance to
meet him. He whammed forth to extend his own greeting—in the backfield of the starter enemy. It was he—he and Mehringer—who built up the Jayhawk's reputation for having one of the best players in toughest defensive lines extant. . . .
Already the coaches of various teams will engage in the teamwork key to teamsters are willing to do. We need them, when we meet Kansas, keep away from them and have a better chance of enjoying the game's game.
Kind words those, for Mr. Clinton,
and words that are likely to prove
not so much a compliment to the gentleman
as a prophetic commentary on the part
he will play in keeping Kansas alive in
the Big Six conference this season.
Next in line is the All-America checklist, a list which in one sense of the word doesn't really mean much, but in the other is worth looking at. The list is compiled by Parke Davis, well known sports writer and official, and in the words of the Football Annual is a list of "the names of football headliners of the season now beginning as selected by leading experts from coast to coast." In order for each position, the men are required watching and who may have something to say in their favor when the best performers of the season are selected.
Three Kansas men are listed. Under the guards, the name of Elwyn Dews Big Six shotgun champion, appears, although Dews will probably be shifted to a tackle this year. Milo Clawson, is listed as a probable tackle, although his probable position this year will be end. Under the guards, the name of last year, is listed at quarterback, and he probably will play halfback. Other Big Six players from Oklahoma, Kansas State, and Nebraska are mentioned, but Iowa State and Missouri are omitted.
Large Freshman Squad Turns Out for Practice
In the list of probable sophomore stars of 1934, a supplement to the above list, appears the name of Clyde Moore, the 250-pound Kansas tackle who is pretty certain to letter this year. Moore, two Nebraskans, and one man each from Oklahoma and Kansas State, represent the Big Six in this section.
Another Jayhacker, the only Kansas back mentioned in the annual, comes in for his share of the verbal decorations. "The guy who was written," one of the
Casini and Plaskett Prepare Yearlings for Scrimmage
Sixty-nine freshmen answered the first call for football practice Thursday afternoon, when Forrest B. "Frosty" Cox started work with the yearlings. Twelve or 15 more had already checked out suits, giving promise of a freshman squad of between 80 and 100.
This afternoon is being spent in getting statistical information about the candidates, checking height, weight, experience, and the like, and by the first of the week "Frosty" and his assistants, Casini and Plaskett, will be putting the freshmen through regular practice sessions.
As soon as the personnel of the squad is determined, the coaching staff will arrange a program for each day's practice, and as soon as possible bring the freshmen to the training room to give the Variety the opposition it needs to develp into an scoring machine.
Yesterday's drill saw the linemen and backs divided into separate groups for charging balls and practice in carrying the ball and tackling.

Midland's finest backs," which is saying a great deal.
Although the Football Annual ranks Kansas sixty-seven among the hundreds of football teams, the rank is not as bad as the first glance indicates. Such teams as Notre Dame (76h), Cincinnati (90h), Louisville (85h), Dartmouth (84th), and Pennsylvania (114th) make the Kansas ranking a bit more bearable.
Ramblers Will Wear White Uppers With Blue Stripes
California to Change Suits
Getting away from the traditional gold and blue jerseys of California teams in the past, Coach Jimmie Hole's Rambler eleven will sport white uppers with horizontal blue stripes on the front and five blue stripes about each arm in their contents this year, according to the Daily Californian.
Variety jersias will retain the same style jerias as those used last year. Blue uppers with gold striped enriched sleeves will serve for home games while white uppers with representative blue striped sleeves will be used in encounters on opponents fields. Freshmen will also wear blue.
Ames Finds Three Passers
Iowa State Expects to Take to Air With Strong Combinations.
Ames, Iowa, Sept. 21.—Spectators at Cyclone drills yesterday were given a demonstration of the extensive aerial attack that Coach George Veenker plans to use this fall. The entire morning was given over to passing offense. Three competent passers have been recovered in Allender, Pope and Neal. That will end the ends and in the backfield. With the binations, and the new passing rule, the Iowa State eleven is expected to take to the air frequently this season.
