9 1 7. DECEMBER 20,1917. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN --- Daily Varsity-Freshmen Fights Bring Out Good Material for Basketball Although Coach Hamilton has made no attempt to pick a squad from the host of candidates who have been reporting every afternoon for basketball practice, he has had an excellent chance to get a line on the men from their play in the Varsity-Freshman scrimmages and those players who have been showing the best form in the league to represent the Crimson and Blue against the Camp Funston soldiers here January 10. Outlook for Other Conference Teams Poor—Kansas' Chances Bright Kansas prospects are probably as good as those of any other Valley team, with the possible exception' of Missouri, where a veteran team will represent the school. Both the Ames and Kansas Aggies have been greatly weakened on account of the win and fatigue that follows, but they return to school. The Jayhawker forces will have to be built around Captain Dutch Uhrlaub and Scrubby Laslett. Uhrlaub was chosen as forward on the second all-Valli selection last year and Laslett was one of the scrappiest guards in the conference, and with these veterans as a nucleus, Coach Hamilton is excited that he quintet that will give the other Valleys a fight for the conference title. Uhrlaub, who was shifted to guard when practice began several weeks ago, has returned to his old position at forward and it is likely that the team will be back in the season. The other forward is a tosup, with Miller, Bunn, Fearing, Lonborg and Keeler as the leading candidates for the position. Miller is a good goal shooter and Burn and Fearing are the best squads for the squad. Mathews has the edge on the job at center although Hoeikvam is press him closely. Davis and Stephenson have been alternating as Scrabby Lasley's running mate while Knochen and Knoles are other guards who are seen showing up well. K. U Students Will Entertain The K. U.
