Kansas Won Eleven Straight Games From Ames Since 1908
"We are going to give all we have to win both of these games," was Captain Fat Nelson's last remark as he boarded the train last night with the other eight Jayhawker basketeers and Coaches Hamilton and Clark, bound for Ames, Iowa, where they will clash with the Aggies in their first Missouri Valley conference games of the season.
Coach Potty Clark said that he believed that the Jayhawk quintet would win by a margin of ten points on each game if the men would play the game they have been playing in the practice scrimmages. He said, in addition, to begin to handle the ball like the goal-tossers of the big Western conference. Rook Woodward is also developing a lot of fast floor-work and guarding.
HAWKINS PRESENT
Coach W. O. Hamilton was a little pessimistic over the outcome of the game, and said the men would have to play their "dardest" if they took both of the games. He added, however, that the Jayhawker quintet had been beating the Ames five with great regularity, and that he could not remember just when the Cyclones had won a game from Kansas. It was evident from his conversation that he expected that the game would be close and hard-fought from start to finish.
The Ames-Missouri games last Friday and Saturday are responsible for much uncertain feeling about the outcome of the games. The fact that Ames broke even with Missouri is evidence enough that the Cyclones have some good money and Aldrich and Aldrich are old men on the Ames five and are expected to show up well in the game this afternoon and tomorrow.
KANSAS HAS WON ELEVEN
The practice and scrimmage yesterday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium showed a lot of improvement in some of the new players. Fast floorwork, close guarding, and good goal-shooting were features of the scrimmage. All of the men are in tip-top condition.
The records of the Ames-Kansas games give the lauches to Kansas. Of the eleven games which have been played between the schools since 1908 the team was all of them with pointage of 436 as against 252 for Ames.

SPORT BEAMS
The Southwestern College basketers stopped off here yesterday afternoon, on their way to Baker, to see the Jayhawk squad in action. One of the men on the Southwestern university team was assistant coach of the freshman basketball squad in the University last year. They played Baker last night.
The hardest games on the Jay-hawker schedule are likely to be the Aggie games which are scheduled to be played in Robinson Gymnasium next Tuesday and Wednesday. "The Aggies have beaten us more than any other team," according to Coach Hamilton.
For the first time in many weeks, the women's class basketball teams had the exclusive use of the Gymnasium last night. The men's squad went to Ames and did not get to practice in the evening before train time.
It is reported that the swimming pool was filled with fresh water Tuesday night.
The women are very enthusiastic over basketball, according to Coach Hazel Pratt. They play for the benefit they derive from the game and not so much for personal honors and pop culture because there have been out to make the various teams while the men have fallen far short of that number.
The Uhrlaub family is well represented in Jayhawker basketball circles with three fast players. Julius Uhrlaub is the oldest of the brothers and is coach of the freshman basketball squad. Rudolf and Ernst are twin brothers and are on the squad this year. Rudolf is one of the best men on the team and has starred in the two non-conference games, while Ernst is one of the best centers on the squad.
A report from Manhattan says the Aggies have not scheduled a series of games with Nebraska at Lincoln this year. This does not mean the Aggie five will not play the Nebraska quintet this season and the Aggie two between the schools to be played at Manhattan February 14 and 15.

K.U. SQUAD WEAK IN HIGH HURDLES
Rodkey Calls for More Men-
Distance Men Going
Good
More men are needed for the high hurdles, according to Rodkey, captain of the track team. Winn is the only veteran hurdler back this winter, and his best event is the low hurdles. Outside of Smith, a new man who is working faithfully, no other man can compete. All new men should come out at once if they intend to do the high sticks, because the Normal meet is only a week away.
Rice will not be able to do any jumping for a week. The Normal meet plan is that you should have to jump again. Rice fell on his left arm while pole vaulting Tuesday and his elbow and arm were sprained worse than they first appeared to be. Treweke and Miller old men doing the high jump now.
Taylor and Atwood did some good pole vaulting in their last workout, both vaulting under the cen-foot wall that actively gravitated you so early in the season and indoors.
Sprowl, the miler, did the quarter in 59 seconds yesterday afternoon. Rodkey ran a quarter in 57:2. Welsal and Murphy both did some good dash work. They are both out for the mile relay team. Davidson and Rustenbach were running the shorter dashes evenly and both did some fast work.
More men are needed for the shot putting squad. Rinker, Dillon, Reitzel, O'Leary, and Groene did some good work in their own' events.

SMALPOXL DANGER PASSING;
LA GRIPE IS SPREADING
The danger of a spread of smallpox seems to be passed, as only one case has been reported and this was over a week ago. Eighty-five students have taken the vaccination against it at the hospital. The students with chicken-pox and measles in the isolation hospital are recovering. The authorities say they are not certain that there will be no spread of the measles. No

and hats—will be made up in the very latest styles—pinch-backs and plains.
MY SPRING SAMPLES ARE HERE
Come In And See For Yourself
The cases of la gripe are not serious, although there are many of them. The cases are doubly difficult to handle because quiz week is so demanding and the deterrence must not give up to the disease and miss out on the finals.
