PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1929 Muddy Field Fails to Quench Spirits of Jayhawk Team Entire Squad Has Snappy Practice to Prepare For Nebraska Conflict Despite the handiplack of a rain drenched field Coach Hargus' band of Jayhawkers underwent an intensive drill yesterday evening in preparation for their game with Nebraska Saturday. Last night the team practiced in the practice facilities held this week and was devoted to dummy scrimmage and drill on new plays. The entire squad took part in a snappy practice, and it with enthusiasm displayed by the men while going through their pieces is any indication, that they are still ready to team when it takes the field against Kansas Saturday. The men were heartened by their victory over the Iowa State Cyclones last week and a determination to put Nebraska game in the victory column in civic action. A comparison of the average weights of the two teams show that they are exceptionally well matched, if the Nebraska team took the field against Missouri is the one that lost. It would be even more its onslaught. The team of both schools will have a line averaging around 195-pounds while the comparison of the backfield weights show that Kannas may have a slight advantage in this department, outweighing the Nebraskans' 5-pounds to the man. If the teams are as evenly matched as the poundage figures indicate there is a strong possibility that both teams will rely extensively on theirerial attacks to bring them victory. If the field wins, they can be happy knowing that the passes of each team have an even chance for success the winner will be a toss up The Kansas squad 33 strong will leave Lawrence Friday morning at 7:30 on a special train of the Union team, which arrived for lunch, and arrive in Lincoln in time for a workout Friday afternoon.
