FIRST REAL TEST ron KANsANs

LAWRENCE. Kan. Oct. 5-tSpeCiaLl-
The first game OF the season that viii any
ways near test the strength OF the Kansas
foot ball machine will be STAGED mere, ON
hcCoOk field next Saturday. when the jay
hawkers will meet the eleven from the Onl-
Yerstty Of Oklahoma. The Sooner PLAYERS
always put up a game fight. ana WINE
they have never scored on Kansas in hair a
close. This season Oklahoma has a team
largely made up Of veterans and al! re
ports confirm the statement that II Is
stronger than the team that held Kansas 10
a IL to Q score last fall.
This morning Coach Kennedy said: Il do
not think that the men OF Bennie owens
can defeat Kansas, but l am AFRAID that
they will score on us and give us such a
hard run that we will have TO use some
OF u new, pet plays to gain a Nlet9Is:
year to the fact that not a single scout
from the ranks Of the opposition saw any
Of our new plays. because we did not have
TO spring them until the big games. It Is
my policy 10 keep something as a surprise
for all the teams that we meet. For that
reason / hope that we will not have 10
extend ourselves to beat Oklahoma"
The game Saturday will be a good index
TO the real strength OF Kansas. The two
games already played have been easy VIC
tories, but the opposing elevens were not at
all classy. As IL was, in the game with ST.
MaTy's last Saturday. kennedy's subs,
whom he considered almost as good as the
regulars, showed up poorly. Unless these
secohq team men are whipped into shape
soon Kansas will have a hard time taking
even the early games.
So far the students here are enthusiastic
over the eleven. As a simple matter OF
dope, Kansas seems to have everything in
the Missouri valley outclassed. While the
Jayhawkers have been busy rolling up
huge scores. Nebraska was playing South
Dakota a s to s game, Iowa was being de-
feated by Minnesota Il to 0 and Missouri
was having a hard time defeating Mon
mouth y to s
When Assistant Coach Mosse was shown
the results of the games In which the flu
ture opponents Of Kansas were parties he
made the following statement: The scores
OF the games go to show that Kansas, as
last year, has the best team. 1t probably
is a fact that today Kansas could defeat
any team in the Missouri valley. but the
merits Of the different teams will materially
change in the next few weeks. and it is
only idle waste Of time to speculate as to
the future"
