Doctor Allen Has Creditable Record With K. U. Teams
"Phog." Former Student Coaches Basketteers Through Fourth Championship
Winning the Missouri valley championship for the fourth consecutive time, and having only five losses in the last five years, is the record of Dr. F. C. Allen's K. U. basketball team. The University of Kansas can justly be proud of the record that Dr. F. C. Allen has become director of the University's athletics and head basketball coach of the University.
"PhoP" was a Kansas student during the years of 1906 and 1907. He was elected to the basketball capitancy for the season of 1907, but, unfortunately, was unable to play during that period.
Doctor Allen first coached at the University of Kansas during the seasons of 1900 and 1910, before going to Warrington in 1913. During these two years his teams won valley championships. In 1904, he was a member of the K. C. A. C. quintet that held the world's record championship.
Allen Succeeded Hamilton
Doctor Allen was a successful coach at Warrensburg Normal school of
Warrenburg, M. prior to his coming to Kansas the second time. He turned on championship a b b school as he has been in the habit of doing at K. U.
A new athletic director was needed to the fall of 1010 when the team won a national athletic director a
that time resigned. Doctor Allen was chosen to succeed Hamilton over a field of four candidates for the position.
Made Head Coach in 1920
At the first of the 1920 season Doctor Allen was the freshman coach of basketball. In the middle of the season he overcame his position over his position to "Ploe" and for the first time he was the head coach of K. U. basketball. During this season he played in the valley by winning out of their 16 games. This was a noticeable improvement over the previous basketball seasons. Missouri administered the award.
Due to the resignation of McCarthy, head football coach of 1919, Doctor Allen became head football coach in the fall of 1920. The Kansans experienced a successful season and finished third in the valley standing. The Jayhawks placed fourth in the football standings for the season of 1921.
Since that time the K. U. basketskeers have established an enviable record. They have won four straight championships and two defeats in a single season.
The basketball season of 1922 saw the initiation of Doctor Allen's championship basketball teams. The Jay-hawks and Tigers finished in a deadlock for first place. Each team won one defeat on each tactic at the hands of the other.
Unusual Record Established
The Jainhawkers old rival, the Tigers, have been defeated by the Kansans nine times in conference battles and have not managed this period. Only Oklahoma, Washington, and the Kansas Aggies have taken the long end of the score against them.
During the seasons of '22, '23, and '24, Kansas established an unusual record that promises to stand for a long time in valley circles. Thirty-four consecutive games were won by Kansas, and one game came the Dajhawks by a close score.
Doctor Allen has developed some of the best known of the K. U. basketball stars. Since his coming to K. U. as head basketball coach, not a year has passed. Jayhawkers placed on the all-valley basketball team.
The grand total of the games won and lost by K. U. and her valley opponents, for all time, is as follows:
Games Won in Iowa Games Won in
Aurora ... K. U.
Algeria ... 11
Argentina ... 6
Gabon ... 19
Guyana ... 6
Mali ... 10
Mozambique ... 20
Nigeria ... 14
Oklahoma ... 12
Qatar ... 13
Howard Fish, student at the University of Kansas that year, is on the Hill visiting with friends. He is doing dramatic work at Denver now, and is connected with theaters there. While at the University, Fish was dramatic master of the K. U. team that debated Oxford. He will attend Yale University next fall to study dramatics.
Missouri Defeats Bears in Last Three Minutes
By defeating Washington last night 24 to 12, Missouri broke a tie for fifth place and sent the Bearns down to sixth in the valley after winning most of the game, but the Bearns tied the score in the last five minutes of play 21 to 21. A field goal and a free throw won the game with two goals in the last three minutes of play.
Total of 552 Points Scored by K. U. Cagers in Victorious Season
Petersen Is High Point Man 1926 Team Shows Better Scoring Ability
Eleven of the 23 members of the K. U. basketball squad who got into games, were responsible for the 552 points scored by Kansas in the game, for the fourth successive time, the undisputed championship of the Missouri valley conference. Figures have just been released from the official score book.

When the sixth annual Missouri Valley indoor track meet gets under way, the Missouri Valley Indoor Track Association is one of the greatest collections of sprinters the Missouri valley has ever created.
who won third in the valley meet last year; and Scharnweber of Grinnell.
With the exception of Lindsay of Oklahoma the same men who placed last year in the indoor or outdoor environment will again see action at Iowa State.
Among these valley sprinters are Locke of Nebraska, who won both of last year's meets; Farley, Missouri's indoor sprint ace; Wonguol of Kansas meet; Rae, Missouri's outdoor meet and fourth in the outdoor meet; Rooney of Kansas, who finished second
Locke's record of 9.6 for the 100 yard dash last year points him out as the outstanding college sprinter of today. This time equals the world's record but was not allowed because of a long wind that was blowing at the time.

League Game Is Probable
Before leaving for Oklahoma City to referee an important basketball game, Dr. F, C. Allen, coach of the champion Jayhawkers, reiterated the rules and rules of the champions of the Big Ten or the Eastern league was a probability.
Valley Champions May Schedule Post-Season Encounter
Neither of these two leagues have finished their schedules and their respective champions have not been decided so anything definite on the postseason series is impossible at this time. In the Big Ten it appears that either Illinois or Purdue will finish on top, while in the Eastern race, Colum
The University of Arkansas has been mentioned as possible opponents for the Missouri valley champions, but this year the University is bright as for the others. The Razorbacks, however, have a formidable record and are recognized as the champs.
