THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
KANSAS-DRAKE GAME OPENS VALLEY RACE
Initial Valley Conference Battle on McCook Field Saturday
HARD FIGHT EXPECTED
Will be First Gridiron Struggle With Drake Since 1915
Kansas will open her Missouri Valley schedule Saturday afternoon McCook Field, with Drake University.
After having played the two opening games according to the usual custom, the Jayhawks will go up against real competition in the race for the Missouri Valley championship. Going with full stern ahead, the Jayhawks are nearly ready to get out of the shallow water and into the deep treacherous currents of the main channel of Valley football.
**CHRONICALLY** THE showing of the Kansas squad in the game with Washburn, Dr. Allen said, "I am neither discouraged nor ashamed at the early season's showing. It only means we will have to work that hard for us." The playing might have been a bit off form but the men were perhaps a lot overmaniac. I will say as I did of the Washburn game, that we are objecting a hard battle, but are willing to play the game I will pick the winner."
Kansas has not met the Drake eleven on the football field since 1915 when the Builds got down under the feet of Coach Occlitt m3 to 50.
This season the Des Moines machine has been doped as a strong contender for the championship rag, having in their line-up all of last year's veterans. Opening their roster included Penn College in an easy game. Last Saturday the Christians went up against Coach Zupkke's Illinois steam roller and was flattened to the extent of 41 to 0, a score not counted
Drake will probably use straight football, not much open field work, and very little passing.
PIGSKIN PATTER
By "Cap" Garvin
It took just six men to get Harry Kane down Tuesday evening, when he lugged the ball twenty yards.
Then along comes Mandy on the opposing side and tooted the pigskin back over the same twenty yards.
We are going to take a lace rope down to practice and see if we can keep Higgins from going through the opposing line.
"We see by the papers" that Drake is coming to visit us Saturday. All we can say is that, Drakes or Ducks, they had better bring along an extra clean collar, 'cause there might be some dirt fly.

There was not a woman at practice Tuesday.
Kenny Welch does not seem to have time to go around the ends, he just wades through the center of the pitcher for his four to twelve yard gains.
In prognosticating the Emperor game we made the rash statement that we would beat Emperor at least 21 points, and then along comes the Washburn game and we predicted that Emperor will contribute to the Drake contributions. Well, neither side will make over 150 points. But it will be a close game.
Kansas has beaten Drake in five of the six games played by the two schools.
A scout from Drake watched the Kansas-Washburn game Saturday.

TWO VARSITY SQUADS BATTLED FRUITLESSLY
Elevens, Piloted by Lonborg and Bunn, Were Unable to Score Last Night

Kane and Spurgeon are "Finds"
Of The Week—Squad Has
Recuited Woody
The presence of two complete teams, either replaceable, in toto, or in any part, by the other, was shown to Kansas fans Tuesday night when two eleven of the football squad, twenty-two men of better than ordinarity Varsity caliber, battled forty-five minutes to a scoreless tie.
John Bunn and Arthur Lonborg were the pilots of the opposing teams, and the equality of their lines, backs and headwork was shown in the fact that neither, by changing the signals, by straight football, or by the aerial game, was able to push across a counter. Lonborg and Lonberg are staging a battle royal for the pilot position but he has been able to oppose ability over the other. Bunn runs his team a trifle the faster, but his open-field strategy has not had the dependable quality of the Lonborre brand.
IVY OUT WITH INJURY

bell, Bell and Reed at ends, Captain Nettes and Sneedur at tackles Smith and Jones at guards, and Hart at center. Bunn's team made just as good headway as their opponents and was composed of Harry Kane, Prexy Bomon and Shimon, Shimon, McDowell and Duncan, Davson and Hale, tackle; Higgins and Woody, guards, and Gordon Saunders, center.
These two lineups, with the addition of "Red" Ivy, star end, who is out of the game with a slight injury, represent practically the cream of the team. It is not the Kansas which the Kansas队 which goes up against the Drake Buildings next Saturday will be picked. Warren Woody, star guard from the 16 and 17 Kansas teams, is in again in a uniform this summer, and will hay all summer to keep in condition.
SPURGEON AND KANE SHOW WELL Two new "finds" in the varsity ma
terial of this week are Tritran Spurgeon and Harry Kane, backfield men who have been pulverizing the defenses of opposing lines in scrim. He is one of those who Normal is just working into form, and his heavy line plunging is making all sorts of holes, while Kane, with a queer sort of jerk running, has been slipping past more tacklers than are placed in for the football rules book.
The Drake team is expected to play a defensive game largely, and several new formations of offensive, ground-gaining plays are being worked on by the squad. The game with the Wash-omin Ichabods last week, which the Jayhawkers were able to take by a score of only 0 to 0, is making the team look stronger than before work, and the best leaks of the season are going in this week in a final effort to polish off the Bulldogs by a big score.
The Finest Style Lines
A:milkman in a country town was brought before the local court to answer "You are charged," said the magistrate, "with selling adulterated milk. Have you anything to answer to the charge?"
"Well, your honor," replied the milkman, "the night before it was raining very hard, and the cow that gives livestock is the cow must have got wet through."

It is in the woolens, the patterns, and colorings, but it is especially in the calibre of the tailoring that gives our clothes the custom made character.
We are insistent on the fact that our suits have the cut which genuinely distinguishes a man.
