KANSAS EXPECTS TO WIN OVER SOONERS
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS FRIDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 30, 1914.
Jayhawkers Confident of Victory on McCook Field
Tomorrow
Kansas expects to beat Oklahoma tomorrow. Three times, 1911, 1912 and 1913, Benny Owen's Sooners have sprinkled salt on the Jayhawk's tail, and tomorrow they will be in Lawrence to try to repeat the offence. But but Kansas coaches, players and rooters believe the tune will be changed tomorrow afternoon and the Sooners will go home defeated.
Kansas is crippled and will meet the visitors with several substitutes: Lindsey, the Jayhawker punter, will not wear a suit while James, the powerful linesman probably will camp on the sidelines. Captain Detwiler injured his leg again last night but hopes to carry the ball Saturday. Minor injuries will rest
retard other Jay-
hawkers,
including Stryker
Coolidge, Gray
and Keeling.
CAPTAIN
DETWILER
Red Craig and Herb Coleman probably will start the game as halves to coach Brady, but Coach Wheaton and he were undecided who to use as fullback, Captain Detwiler was slated to work, but his injury was not critical. Detwiler will start as quarterback.
This line-up looks stronger than the Oklahoma team. The Sooners are stronger, but they have them to weaken before the heavy Kansas backfield, but what the Sooners lack in weight is much up their sleeve as much in muscle. Speed is the secret of Owen's machine and it will make the Wheaties hustle to down the long ends to run to victory.
Keeling has recovered from bruises in the Aggie game and will pass the ball tomorrow. Guards will be Strother and Helverson, while Burton and Graft will play the tackle positions. Coolidge will cover right end and Rebeck end.
The serimimage work this week will light and far from satisfactory. McCarty's many leaks in the Kansas defense and scored on them relied on backfield backleaf learned several new plays this week. The Wheaton will put the last two on these formations this afternoon.
The forward pass will be a mainstay of the visitors' attack tomorrow unless Kansas amuthered. Aggie passes Saturday and should do the same to Oklahoma, who have speedy backfield nor a man like Capshaw who throws a football like a baseball. Tomorrow a game promises. Toomre would Bond says, "Kansas ought to win."

SOONERS DETERMINED TO WIN KANSAS GAME
Oklahoma Fears Jayhawker Beef but Feels Confident of Victory
Norman, Okla., Oct. 30—Determined to avenge the overall defeat in the hands of the Texas Longhorns, last week, the Sooner football squad left today for Lawrence where they will meet the Jayhawkers Saturday. The team has manifested more than usual vigor in scrimmages this week and is in good shape to meet the Kansans. Although the Oklahomaans went through a severe test in the Texas game last week, every man on the squad
CAPTAIN CLARK
and with few exceptions the Sooners are the captain Billy Clark is the most seriously injured Sooner, but Captain Billy Clark is the condition today. Geyr came out of the Longhorn game in good shape, his older brother him considered before the big game, but in practice not been bothered by the injuries and will be able to punt for the Sooners tomorrow.
With recent games against two heavy teams, he styles of play, the team by this time is like a collection of what to expect from Coach Owen has set his men to work with him. He's a big score against
the jayhawkers. Attention has been given in addition to trying out a few new plays, to a slight variation in defensive tactics with the team as an able disguise of being scored on by any open play style of the ball.
Kansas football is the only factor which causes Oklahoma to fear the outcome of tomorrow's game. With an opponent of approximately 75 percent showing up well and the linesmen have been holding like a wall. When they met the heavy Texans, the linge gave way and it is the fate of Jawahyer beef which makes the outcome uncertain—because the Sooners have Kansas bested or open football.
There are twenty-five student volunteers in the University at present. Next Sunday they will be in charge of the young people's meetings at the Congress Center, during the week of November 8, the world's day of prayer, the band will meet at 6:30 every morning for worship.
