THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN K.U. AMONG LEADERS IN BASKETBALL RACE Jayhawkers Practice This Week for Contest Monday With Washington U. TIGERS TO FIGHT TONIGHT Cornhuskers Meet Another Undefeated Five--Aggies Just Getting Started ... - Week-end Games in Valley. * Friday night. * Missouri at Nebraska. * Grinnell at Drake. * Saturday night. * Grinnell at Nebraska. * Washington U. at Manhattan. * tan Ames at Oklahoma. ... With no games scheduled for the Jahewhawk five this week-end the main interest in the Missouri Valley races settles around the battle between Missouri and Nebraska, to be played at Lincoln tonight. Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska are setting the pace in the Valley race, each team having won two games and lost none. Either the Tigers or the Cornhuskers are slated to fall by the wayside this evening. The fact that Nebraska took Ames to a 21 to 14 defeat has rather worried the Tiger five in that it was entirely unexpected. In this game, played on the Ames court, the Cornhuskers showed a sterling defense and a fair offense. The Nebraska team with two veterans on the squad is playing a hard game according to all reports. While both teams defeated Washington, the Tigers in previous games have shown a greater scoring power than Coach Owen Frank's Nebraska five. However, in years past the Cornhuskers have had a faculty of upsetting when playing against the Missourians, and this fact has made Coach Ruby rather wary of the Nebraska team. Drake has the edge over Grinnel in their game this evening. The Plo neers lost all three games on their southern trip losing to the Kansas Aggies, to Coach Allen's men and to the Sooners. The Drake men while losing to Kansas made a much better showing than Grinnel, and in ad ditition the Sooner team under by a 49 to 15 score. The games Saturday night are not no as much interest. Nebraska should have no difficulty in taking the Grinnell men into camp. Ames, according to dope will come away from North Carolina via a view. The battles between Tuskenburg, U. and the Kansas Aggies will give a line on the strength of the Aggie five. Washington suffered defeat at the hands of both Nebraska and Missouri, although she put up a good fight against the Tigers. The Manhattan team has only played one Valley game but in all probability the Aggies will walk off with the victory Saturday evening. The Kansas team went through a hard workout Wednesday and Thursday, after their victory by a narrow margin over the Drake five. Wednesday the Varsity and the freshmen mixed for a sharp battle, while yesterday the second squad mixed it up for about thirty minutes. A stiff practice will beheld tonight and Saturday in final preparation for the game with Washington Monday evening. M. L. Eaton, e24, will not be in school next semester.

Allen, coach, that the varsity basketball squad has been materially reduced owing to the fact that several men had broken training rules. "I am not asking the men to do anything that I do not do myself," Coach Allen said this morning. "I observe the training rules with the men." "When a man goes to the varity sheds and checks out equipment, by his very act he automatically agrees to live up to the rules." Dr. Allen continued. "I will keep医学者 men on my squad rabbit than let any man play who will not train. The coach says we must announce the announcement which they made this fall and I am doing my part in reducing the squad. "In the past the University of Kansas has had the name throughout the Valley of not observing regular training rules. While most of this Valley rumor and talk has been without any foundation, however, yet the coaching department feels that it has been lax in the nast." The basketball squad has been unusually large this year, Coach Allen desiring to allow all men a chance who would really work. However, he is determined not to tolerate any man on the squad who willfully breaks training, even if it be at the cost of a championship team.
