PAGE FOUR THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8. 1927 Fray With Aggies May Decide Hopes of Jayhawk Bird Kansas' Ability on Foreign Courts Has Availed Much in Past Battles Battles If the University of Kansas is to remain as one of the outstanding contenders for the final valley leadership in the basketball race, the Jayhawkers must come through with a victory over the strong Kansas Aggie quinnies in the game between the two teams at Manhattan on Wednesday night. The Jayhawkers may go into the game without the services of one of their regular guards, Balfour Jeffery, regular guard, suffered a bad scab wound in Monday night's practice. However, Doctor Alen believes he will heal sufficiently to allow Jeffery to enter the fray against the Argies. Kansas Has Even Chance Kansas Has Even Chance Despite the possible handicap of the loss of Jeffery the Kansas team will choice against the Agings. In the recent games that the Kansas have played, a noticeable improvement has been prevalent in the squad's play. In fact, it seems that the Jayhawks are coming back after a poor start at the first of the season. This has done in the last two years and a valley this was won on each occasion. Doctor Allen's court warriors have an enviable reputation for being one of the greatest teams in the country for away-from-home games. During the few less seasons the dayhawkers have risen to great heights when they played teams on a foreign court at a crucial occasion. The results of this game may cause a possible shake-up in the valley standings. If Kansas emerges victorious she will make a jump from seventh place to a tie with the Oklahoma Aggies for fourth place. Their standing, if they win, will be three wins and an Annie败将 will defeat the lower Farmington with No Nebraska for sixth place with three victories and three defeats. Defeat Means Elimination Defeat Means Elimination A Ja Hawyjah defeat will put the Kansans hopelessly down in the valley race. They will still be in seventh place and their percentage will be eight percent. Agggies, on the other hand, will have six of eight hundred and will be one of the leading contenders in the race. One feature of the game between the two squads is that both teams are well represented with Kansas City men. The Aggies have Skruski, Osborne and Mertel while Kansas can boast of Captain Schmidt, Petersen, Burton, and Gordon of the regulars that are from greater Kansas City. One reason that may be assigned to Kansas playing better on a foreign court is that all the floors in the valley except the one in Robinson will have four players. The local court is only 42 feet wide. Thus, when the Jayhawkers are away from home they are able to pivot and pass through their opponents' deceleration of the mismanagement of the narrowness of the court prohibits much speed in this style of play.

Young Alpha Tau Omega Sport Notes Drake overcame a 6-point lead in the last five minutes of play in their game with Washington last night and scored a 25 to 22 victory. The Bulls did not win, but the Bears rallied desperately in the last period and outclassed their opponents until the final five minutes of play. Meyers of Drakes was high scorer for his team with a total of 12 points, and 7 defeated Washington with a like number. "Young" Stribling in the first bout of Tex Rickard's heavyweight elimination tournament, last night won a 10 round victory over Edie Huffman. The bout was rough and bruising and Stribling added nothing to the prestige he lost due to his defeat by Paul Berlenbach last summer. With the score tied until the last two minutes of play, baskets by Yumberr and Bacchus enabled Missouri to defeat Grinnell 20 to 16 last night. With the score tied, half, but Grinnell rushed the Tigers off their feet in the last half and played on even terms until the Bengals scored their final two baskets, with 6 points and Chase held a total of 8 to be high scorer for Grinnell.
