Dr. F. C. Allen has not definitely decided what lineup will start for Kansas. Schmidt and Wilkins came out of the Nebraska contest with a first-round start, but the starting tonight. However, Captain Ackerman, Peterson, and Gooden are practically sure to be in at the start, with the other forward position between Schmidt, Eagle, and Campbell, who are guard between Wikile and Bolgard.
The doors will close at 7:25.
