Kansas cannot afford to rest this season and will have strong opposition in the Valley. Missouri, Oklahoma, and Amles will all have strong teams and are the ones that will contend for Valley honors. With seven of the eleven letter men of last year, Kansas has had four members of last year's all-Valley team, Kansas is the hardest hit of any of the Valley schools. Offense Weak The offense is weak, according to Coach Allen, and will have to be improved before Kansas can count itself strong. The defense is good as **is the floor work so far**, but there are several other phases of the game that has been needed. **Men are not hitting the noop with the amount of precision desired and in need of practice along that line.** Serimimage yesterday showed a decided improvement over practices earlier in the week. The defense lost six of those games, the scoring down to a minimum. Captain Black, and Mosby, members of last year's squad, are finding themselves and are getting in basketball from following the football season. This has helped improve improvement and proving strong contenders for first string positions. Full Squad Not Yet Practiced So far there have been no practice games, but at full strength. Several men have been excused to take part in the inter-organization track meet and two other regulars on the first other regulars on the first string have been out at work. Wilkinson is not attending a convention at Pittsburgh, Pa., and Bengarde, who broke his hand in practice, has been unable to work out. Sanborn and McLain, both members of the football squad, have not been a feet and will be out for a few days. Improvement is steadily being shown, according to Doctor Allen, and the squad should be in condition and ready for the first game. The Hillary aggregation. Several players who have been handicapped for various reasons will be able to work out regularly at the first of the games and will be ready for the first game. Sideline Sidelights Basketball got under way Saturday night. Missouri met the K. C. A. c team at Columbia, Ames played Minnesota at Minneapolis, and other teams throughout the country in pre-season games. Kansas will take off Jan. 5 when the Jayhawks journey to St. Joe and meet the Hillary five. Playing on the Hillyard队 are George Roby, and John Wulf, former worehouse squares uniform and sill, Valley men. Forest DeBernardi, former star on the Jahawkher freshman squad, will also wear a Hillary uniform. The three Kansans are the nucleus of the Hillary team and men to be feared on the court. Gerald Smith, Kansas fullback, has a believe-it-or-not record that few can equal. He has never had a punt blocked and never kicked out of the game, but he played called for such a kick, in his three years of college football. Nebraska sends Kansas a remembrance of the Homecoming day and Stadium dedication during which celebration Kansas held the Huskies to a scoreless tie. The spirit which is behind such a gift is typical of a big school used to doing things in a big way. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Huskers had every right to be disappointed that they did not dedicate their Stadium with a view of the game. They should take a lesson from the school at Lincoln. There were no charges of unfairness and dirty playing emanating from the Nebraska camp. Kansas held the Huskers because they fought—as they fight on every occasion—no more, no less. Traditional rivals, the act of the Nebraskans will go far towards building up good feeling and keeping sportsmanship paramount in the valley. Kansas will work for short shots this year. Spectacular shots from the center of the court are barred. Ability to break up the opposing unseen ball under the basket is better than individual shot shooting from center. Eighty freshmen responded to the call of Coach Owen Frank at the University of Nebraska. The yearlings will be drilled through the Christmas holidays, according to news stories from Lincoln. Coach Allen announces that the Jayhawk squad will be entertained while in Lawrence during the vacation. They will also be taken to the University of Kansas and will stay at the new K. C. A. C building in Kansas City. Open Dates Left for Aggies and Missouri Schedule Nearly Complete The Kansas football schedule for next year has been entirely filled with the exception of Oct. 18.
