THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Bulldogs Smarting With Defeat, Meet Jayhawks Tonight Drake Scintillators Expected To Put Up Stiff Battle Against Valley Leaders A determined squad of court athletes from Drake will try tonight in Robinson gymnasium to do what no Valley team has been able to do yet this year—beat Kansas. Smarting under a 32 to 18 defeat earlier in the season, the Northern invaders stand a good chance of getting revenge. Conspicuous among them is Boelet, captain-elect of next year's football team and all-Valley halfback. He has a peculiar style of dribble which even Endacott was unable to handle. Three times White forward dribbled past "Endy" and neatly spun the ball through the basket. Drake Forward Dangerous Wilhelm, the other forward, is, if anything, more dangerous. He, also, made three goals from the field and made third in the Valley individual Another Bulldog star is Devine, cousin of the great Aubrey Devine, remarkable University of Iowa athlete and all-American quarterback in 1921. This Devine of Drake is a vigorous and hard player. It was due mainly to his efforts that Waldo Brewton with a crippled leg, a black eye and a sore arm, and the former was in the game only ten minutes. "A Vigorous Playing Bunch" Ven Alken is the center who kept John Wulf from connecting with the basket or ever coming near it. He didn't stop him. John's chance of squaring up matter The other Drake guard is Charrett, who is a hard, consistent player. He is often replaced by O'reghan brilliant sophomore quarter-back, who scored the winning points against Kansas in the game last fall. "They are a hard and vigorous playing bunch," said "ShoP" Allen this morning. "They never seem to tire, and are fighting harder at the finish then at the start. At Des Moines the score at the end was 4-1, our favorite but they came back and outplayed Kansas in the last half. "They seem to be in an-and-out team, playing one game like champions and another like high school boys. They beat the Agagios 50 to 23 the most lop-sided score against them this season." Bowman Has Laryngitis Kansas will start the same team as usual, except for the probable sub situation of Wostemeyer for Bow man, as Waldo is suffering from lar yngitis and several injuries. Freedrick, who was "out" with the fit w able to take a light workout yes tuesday and he may get in the game. "Our plays need to be perfected and better executed," continued the Kansas court mentor. "Perhaps the position of leadership has allowed a little carelessness to creep in. Our plays have been miscarrying of late; the men have not yet recovered from the strenuous northern trip, the Missouri game, and examinations. However, physicals they are required. We will be one of the hardest of the season. The Bulldogs fought hard at Des Moines, and they are likely to fight harder on a foreign court." Old Student to Speak Between halves Dr. James Naimi smith will speak on the origin of the game of baskettball, and Frank Lindley Wenner the class of the 72 who is at present studying for his degree in engineering, will also talk The much-agitated question of try-outs for cheerleaders will be settled following the talks when any aspirants for the position of University cheerleader will be given the opportunity to "show their stuff." Those wishing to try out must see Virgil Miller or "Phog Allen" beforehand. "Seven Keys to Baldpate" To Play in Junction City Eight students of the University left this morning with the "Seven Keys to Baldage" company, which is to play in Junction City tonight and tomorrow night. This group of players is the same one which played here for the local American Legion some time ago.

On Friday and Orkham at Norman on Saturday. Nine men were taken on the trip. The squad is in perfect condition following the Oklahoma struggle here, and the Buildings are hoping that they may be able to stem the onus of Coach Allen's Kansas Jayhawks, who seem to be having their own team with every team in the conference. When the Jayhawks visited Des Moines nearly a month ago, they snowed the Drake men under during the first half, but the latter braced and held their opponents to a 12 to 9 score during the second if they were sooon are going good Friday night, they should give the Jayhawk a run for its money. The Oklahoma game will also be a tough one for the Blue and White. The Sooners displayed their wares enough at the Drake gymnasium Tuesday night to convince local followers that they a real basketball team. The locals will have a little edge, because of the long trip to Iowa. They're apt to be stale following their journey back to Norman and the Bulldogs may catch them in a slump.
