Kansas basket ball followers may have their first chance Friday night to see the Jayhawks in action, as Coach W. O. Hamilton is trying to arrange for a game between his men and the Washburn College five of Topoka. The Washburn quintet is one of the fastest in the Kansas State Conference. It held the Kansas Agnies to a 36-20 score about two weeks ago and defeated the Haskell Indians last week.
If the game is arranged, it will be played in Robinson Gymnasium at 7:30 o'clock, the usual time set for all the games on the home floor this year. Coach Hamilton does not believe his team can afford to remain idle this week and as the Washington University quintet of St. Louis, which was first scheduled to play a pair of games here this week, cannot make the trip, Washburn probably will be played instead. The Washburn aggregation has one fast forward in Swede Lindell, a former Topek high school star, and three or four other letter men make up the rest of the team.
TIGERS SCHEDULED NEXT
The Missouri Valley basketball season will open here next week with two of the most important games as the Missouri Tigers are scheduled for Friday and Saturday on the home floor.
Every member of the Kansas team is in good shape after the Ames series and the men will be ready for the Tigers. The Varsity scrimmaged an hour with the freshmen last night and came out winner, although the yearling 16am was given a handicap of twenty points. The score was 48-37. The Varsity is a heavy scoring machine when working smoothly, as was shown in the first game against Ames last week, when the combination piloted up fifty points more than was scored against Ames in either of the Missouri games.
BENNETT SHOWS UP WELL
With Bunn and Mill, playing the regular forward positions and Harmus and Lonborg held in reserve, and Matthews at center, the scoring end of the team is well taken care of. Bennett proved conclusively in the Ames games, and especially in the first one, that he is not only a steady defensive player but a strong cog in the team's offensive. He scored twenty points in the first game, something very unusual for a guard, Mason, although he has not had as much experience in college basket ball as the others, is a
scraper and a cool, heady player and fits in well with the rest of the team. Bunn can be slifted to guard, if necessary, and either Lonborg or Harmes can take care of the left forward position. Lonborg scored twice from the field after he had taken Bunn's place in the second Ames game.
Banquet is Planned For K.U. Football Men
A banquet in honor of the football team will be given shortly according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Customarily the football letters are awarded at the annual banquet, but plans for doing this have yet been made this year.
"I see no reason why the football men at the University of Kansas should not be given letters this year as in any other year. The athletes in other schools are getting letters. The K. U. athletes should be awarded letters and sweaters. I would like to see somebody on the Hill start a fund to purchase sweaters for the men," said Jay Bond, Varsity football coach.
The men will probably elect a captain at the banquet. The most likely candidate is Stem Foster who played at quarter.
K. U. and Iowa Aggies Perhaps Only Valley Schools to Play
Kansas Will Schedule Spring Baseball Games In Series of Three
The University will have a baseball team this spring and will play the games in series of three according to announcement today by W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Coach Hamilton saw Clyde Williams of Ames while in that city with the basketball squad last week and scheduled two series with the Iowa Aggies, one to be played here and the other at Ames.
Kansas and Ames will probably be the only Valley schools to play baseball in their athletics until '20, when they will try to put a team in the field again. Baseball is usually a financial loser here but will be continued as long as competition appears in the Valley, according to Coach Hamilton.
"I will have charge of the baseball men and think we will have a good bunch out this year. Most of the men on Varsity last spring are in 'school and several of the best men on the first year team last season will be out for places on the University team this spring," said Jay Bond today.
The Kansas battery will find no trouble in the three game series this spring with four good twirlers on the squad. The staff is well balanced with Harms and Pierce, left handers, and Slawson and Marxen, right handers. Slawson was the only winner on the Varsity last spring and the other three twirlers were working well against the Varsity and are valuable men. Bunn will be back at his old position behind the bat. If the staff
gets in hot water, Ruble can be brought down from Rosedale for the series.
Harms or one of the other twirlers can be used at first base when not on mount duty. Cherry, last year's star first baseman, died in a training camp last fall. Isenberger who won his letter at second is in school and MacLood of the first year team is back. Both are good infelders. Stem Foster will be back at his old place at short stop. Steam is a fast man and the mainstay of the team. Lenbont will be back at third. He whips the ball over to the initial sack with a snap that saves many a base hit.
pounding out the hits in his old time form.
Weltmer who acted as captain of the team last season is back and will work in the outfield. Oyster will be back in the field. Smith, the hardest hitter on the squad last season, will be out for the team. Smith was ineligible last spring but will be back
With these men out for baseball the Ames Agrics will have an all around finished team to work against. Games may be scheduled with some of the schools of the state conference if they play baseball.
