THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2. 1927 PAGE FOUR Basketball Squad Works Diligently for Championship Valley Competition to Be Keen This Year; Allen Starts System Plays Soon The University of Kansas basketball team is rapidly rounding into its season, struggling for the Missouri Valley League championship year. For six years straight when the basketball season came to a close the Cincinnati and Blue team were in the lead. This year competition will be very keen and the Jaylawhoppers will have a team of linebackers, Kansas Agries, Nebraska lumberers and the Missouri Tigers. By the laws of average Kansas is due for a victory, but the average has been broken by Jayhawker quintets in years past and prospect for a winning team this season. The men are working out daily and rapid progress is being made. Coaptain Hill and Barton are polished athletes. They have trained their muscles to send the ball where they look; thus they have been making a good percentage of their There are but two more weeks of practice until the season starts when the team meet the Kaneah team in Des Moines. The "Pooh" has already started the men's scrimmage and in a few more days a system of plays will be given to the A squad of over thirty men are furnishing the material for the team and some of 1st year's freshmen are showing up well. Co-captain Burton has been working out in the center position. He knows who is behind him and who always counts in the scoring will probably hold down the position of the most aggressive. No first team has been picked no year and all probability the team will be compelled to men. These are, co-captain Hill, captain Burton, Jeffrey, Newland, Kenneth, Newland, Smith and Hill are all at facades and Jeffrey, Burton and many others are showing up well are Henderson at center, Urbana at forward and Siebel at center. Chances to Repeat Last Year? Victory Are Dim Haskell Eleven to Tulsa Coach John Thomas and assistant coach John Levi with 24 Hucklebraves left last night for Tula Oklahoma. The Tulsa team played Saturday. Last year the Indiana defeated the Tuba team by a score of 27 to 0 but this year their chances of repeating this score is much less than last season. John Thomas, the mentor, a former University of Chicago back, has developed a team from almost totally green material. When he started the team, it was one letter man on his sound and a log of last year's second string man. This year the football season of the Haskell Institute has not been as successful as in previous years, but considering the difficulties that continue to the present day of the season the outcome has been in a large degree successful. The game Saturday will be played on McNulty field in Tulsa. The Has kell band will accompany the team. Practice in the last week has been concentrated on line plunging and signal drill particularly, and although the fiddles have a hard grip Saturdays are better for this kind of show as good if not better form than in any of the other contests this year.
