Jayhawker Ranks Weakened by Flu At Critical Time

With the basketball team in a bad shape physically, Conch Allen is depending upon the morale of the team to carry the Crimson and Blue to victory against the Tigers here Wednesday evening.
Influenza Weakens Squad
About two weeks ago the influenza attached Frederick, and soon after that Mosby was stricken. Rupp was the next unlucky person, while at Lincoln, Bowman, stellar forward, had an attack, from which he has never fully recovered his voice. Wulf and Ackerman have also been weakened the past few days by attacks in New York. The flu is bothered with a severe cold. In fact, the entire squand in is a weakened condition abscessly.
Wednesday night's game will undoubtedly be one of the greatest games in basketball history, for the reason that it was established a new Valley precedent.
Never in the history of basketball in Missouri Valley has any team had an all-victoryoung season, and the record for this is the highest of psychology. The question is whether Missouri, with a chance of merely tying for the championship will have a finer morale than the first-place game to break all Missouri Valley records.
"There is danger," says Coach Alient, "that the student feeling on the Hill will have a bad effect upon the team and make them overconfident of victory. Too much expression of confidence on the part of students is not likely to help during the football season of 1920, when, after holding Nebraska to a 20-20 tie, we were defeated by Missouri at the Thanksgiving game. The team in its weakened condition needs the moral support of the University, but not such expressions of confidence that would mean the loss of victory. However, we are going into this game with the determination to win."
Ticket Sales Over 2500 Mark
The ticket sales indicate attendance without basketball parallel in the Middle West. All of the 2700 seats in the gymnasium have been sold. Missouri is bringing down a band and a large body of students with every intention of carrying home the honor and preventing K. U. from realizing her precedent-breaking desires.
Razzing Might Cost Game
Cheerleader Warns Against Any Inopportune Cheering
"We are going to have a hot and heavy contest with old Mizouz on the basket court tomorrow night," said Cheerleader Miller today. We as Jayhawks have always been good sports and always will be. I think the sportsmanship this year is worth it. If we want to keep it up, Especially do we want to be good sports at the game tomorrow night.
"I do not want to curb the enthusiasm of this contest, but I do want to warn the students to be careful and not forget themselves. A slight breach in the cheering might mean the losing of the game for Kansas, or a loss of the home team if the cheering is not held in check at the proper time.
"This is the last basketball game of the season and the one that tells you for Kanaan and Missouri, so let's all conduct ourselves in the proper manner and pull for the team at every moment of the contest. At the end of the game everyone makes sure the room until the Crimson and the Blue has been sung and a [um-spitting Rock Chalk has been given."
For the luv o' mike, fella, don't rizz Mizou tomorrow night. It's mighty poor sportsmanship for one thing. And for another thing it makes Quigley rather sore and it is likely to draw a foul throw for the Tigers. So please don't donate the animal anything.

C meet when he went 12 feet 6 inches, although finally beaten by McKown, who set a new world's record. It is very likely that he will carry off a first in this event.
Graham will be entered in hurdles, broad jump, and high jump. He has developed into the best prospective hurdlers that Kansas had had for many years, and Cox and Co. will be at Urban Norton will be the all-round man from Kansas. He will enter in the pole-vault, high jump, shot put, broad jump, 75-yard dash, 75-year high hurdles, and half mile run. He will probably be high point man from this section of the country at least.
Fisher will be entered in the dashes in addition to his work in the mile-rely if that team is taken. He must do both, and the son, the 300-yard dash. Although he has been doing well in the middle distances lately, he is a dash man that will be able to place high in the meet. Tom Poor in the high jump is one of the best players, he took first at Kansas City at six feet, but using a fourth trial, it not allowed in competition he went 6 feet 1-8 inches. His form has shown continual improvement and he should doable to six three Illinois.
Matthews will probably be taken with the squad. Within the past week he has increased his heave of shot but put by slightly over three feet.

"Phog" Allen is counting more on mental condition to defeat the Tigers rather than physical, as the K. U. squad has been under the weather with the "flu" for the past few weeks.
One year ago, the standing between the two teams was exactly the opposite to what it is now, and the question before the house is whether or not they will play in the final into the Tigers as Kansas did unto them last year in the last game.
Bowman, has not been used very much in the games with weaker cams on account of "hit" contracted in quadraflexquad was on the last orion trip.
As, for thrills, H. L. Menkene "SmartSet or Captain Billys famous publication will be tame entertainment for one who sees this game.
Say, boy! Doesn't that make you feel good? And it shows that basketball is fast making its place in the hearts of the sport living pubile.
Over 2,000 applications for seats for the game tomorrow have been returned to the applicants.
Some may say that the statement to the effect that it will be the biggest game in basketball history needs qualifications. But they fail, to realize that Missouri Valley Conference basketball, on the whole, ranks as high, if not higher, than any in the country.
R.O.T.C. to Three Camps
Local Unit Men Will be Given Practical Training
The local unit of the R. O. T. C. will be represented in three camps next summer when the call for summer training for student officers is heeded. Twenty men will go to the Montana Venture, Mo.; fifteen men will attend the basic Coast Artillery camp at Fort Snelling, Minn.; and two men will answer roll call with the advanced Engineers at Camp Coster, Mich., while six men will shoulder the basic Engineers at the same camp.

The plains have plenty of plain plains get a chance to see Phoebe and Hampton of the Civil War fame and Yorktown of the Revolutionary period. Close to Fort Monroe is Norfolk and Rampton Roads where the many ships and a large station.
Last year at Camp Custer, Mich,
the advanced engineers from the
local unit ranked first in standing
among the advanced corps, and
the basic men from Kansas ranged second
in the basic units.
At Fort Eustia, where advanced men are given practical aerial observation work, Major Harold D. Burdick, founder of the local unit and for four years the P. M. S. & T., is adjunct. At this fort the advanced men also get railroad artillery training.

Illinois Enters Angiers For Relay Competition
Sport followers will have a chance to see Angers, holder of the American record in the pole vault, perform here at the Kansas Rams, April 21. Angers, whose record heavier is than its opponent, was benefited by Illinois. This school will also send either a mile or a four-mile relay team to this meet, while it is possible that Ayers, Illini's crack agristripper also waived his sent word that they will have entered either five or six men in the special events as well as relay teams in the quarter, half and mile events. It was an Iowa defended the Kansas relay team at the K. C. A. C. meet February 17.
