PAGE FOUR THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MONDAY, JANUARY 2, 1028 Basketball Squad Spends Vacation in Practice Drill Inconsistency in Scoring and Offense Largely Responsible for Aggie Win Returning five days early from their Christmas vacation, members of the Jayhawk basketball squad put in some hard leaks toward reaching the United States while other students of the University were still enjoying Christmas cheer. Final scrimmage before the next contest war, Washington university has beaten Georgetown nine-nine over noon between two picked teams which have been working out against each other since last season. "The team shows fine floor work, lots of fight and very good team work," said Dr. F, C. Allen, Jayhawk coach, this morning. "However, the team still prefers inconsistent in scoring and the offence in general is still weak." It was this weakness which was largely responsible for the dropping of the opener here with the Kansas Agnies Dec. 16. In the last two practice last week, scrimmages between the "Whites" and "Blacks" were held. The squad by Doctor Allen, furnished plenty of excitement and opportunity for both sides. On the White team Newland and Thomson were forwards, Henderson center, and Jeffrey and McGuire guards. The Purple team was made up of Hill and Gsell, forwards; Hauser center; and Burton and Maney guards. Art Lawrence is on the injured list with a bad foot, and co-aptain Jip Hill has been suffering from hemodision. Heuderson is out with a bad shoulder. Bal Jeffrey, diminutive Kansas guard, is showing decidedly the best form in all departments of the game, but he wasn't McGuire, who has been playing the other guard with Jeffrey, is full of fight, but his small size, coupled with that of Jeffrey, makes the Kansas defense work against large opponents. Burton, only all-Valley man back on the squad, is improving but has not met much of the pressure. The last two practices have shown him up to much better advantage than he has at any time. "Rub" Thomson, a newcomer from Central high school, Kansas City, who broke into the Aggie game with a formidable attack, is weak on defense as yet. Kansas was defacted in the first basketball game of the year, Dec. 16, when the Wildcats from Argentine dropped to 4-2. The difference was that the Aggeni were hitting the basket with more regularity. Kansas Drops First Game Ragged Basket Shooting Gives Aggies Victory Bob Manley was the star for the Kansas team. This fighting guard displayed all he could get through," to the basket, he weaved, passed and dribbled the ball through time after time. He was a leader on the court, taking several times during the game. Shots were wild, playing was rugged and passes missed, as is usually the case in the first baseman position, but that same fight that has taken the crimson and blue into six valley championships. With a strong second team, the first team during the remainder of this week, the Washington Bears are expected to fall before the Jayhawks when they reach the new and updated floor Friday night.

No overcool protected him and he was not wearing a coat when wind whistled around his inadequately covered legs and swept across his hair. He had been deprived deeply dressed for the cruel winter weather which had caught him out without his hat, over cool or rub out. The throng hurried past him, their heads down and their chins snugged into the breasts of their coats. They were not hurtheart, they were merely crying, and they held up a warm room ahead and cheerful companionship. No doubt they would have pitted the old man had they only thought, but they did not think—that they were sympathetically, saw his pitiful condition and feeling the few small coins in my pocket, mourned that I could not help him. I was sorry for the cold, I wanted to stay cold and undoubtedly longing for an overcoat. I felt a thrill of admiration for the indomitable pride which kept him from seeking aid from those who passed. I admired and resolved something to help him—when I could. Yesterday, I saw the old man again for the first time in several days. It was with true thankfulness in my heart and a better clothed. He had a new coat, I wondered who had befriend him. I had to help him. But I did wish to myself that his benefactor would be amply rewarded. I was truly glad to see the old man had Huh? What?
