KANSAS AND AGGIES
SEEKING THIRD PLACF
30th Teams are Confiden'
Final Basketball Games of Season Here Tonight and Wednesday
K. U.'s Defeat of Haskell Gives Hopes—Farmers Defeated
Tigers
In the last two basketball games on the season, the Kansas Aggies will come to Lawrence tonight and Wednesday in an earnest endeavor to annex third place honors in the Missouri Valley conference. With Missouri University assured of first and second places, the fight is now centered on third place.
"It will be one of the greatest battles, Kansas followers of basketball have seen in years, and I have no alibi whatever to offer for the boys," he said. "I am the most officer of athletics, this morning, 'talked with Coach Chevenger.' I Manhattan last night at midnight. He is confident and says that if Kansas wins it we be good playing; if that loses we be shaped and shape and can find no excuses."
By winning both games of the pres- nter series, Kansas can have thir- dbirth in the conference, with the Ag- resting in fourth.
The Agkeys come to Kansas; fresh from an even break in a 2-game series with the Tigers, who have beer beaten but once during their season of eighten games. According to statistics, the Farmers have a bit of the edge in comparing their results with Missouri and the K. U. scores with Missouri and the Northwestern advantage of playing away from home and against old rivals.
The Kansas five had no trouble in defeating Haskell Monday night at the Athletic Carnival. The first guard was only used during the first half. Miller who has been showing a come back of his old form will probably be used and has one of the games, the Rams and Haskell, doing better than at any time during the season, will no doubt contribute their share of the scoring.
