only One Regular to X. U.

Coach Phog Allen, basketball men
tor at Kansas university. has a job on
his hands this season, in moulding a
quintet around Captain Dutch" Uhr-
laub, which will be strong enough to
play the stiffest schedule of games in
years.
The Jayhawks have taken on a big
contract this season, and Uhriaub is
the only regular from last year who
reported for this years outfit The
schedule comprises four games with
Missouri. four with the Aggies, and
two each with Drake, Ames, Grinnell,
oklahoma and Washington. The
schedules:
Drake at Lawrence, January Z and 8.
Ames at Ames, January IA and Is.
Grinnell at Lawrence, January II
and %.
Missouri at Columbia, January Is
and 20.
Kansas Aggies at Lawrence, Febru-
airy and 5.
Washington at Lawrence, February
Kansas Aggies at Manhattan. Feb
ruary Is and 10.
Missouri at Lawrence, February
25 and 26.
Oklahoma at Norman, March
and 5.
AItho Uhrlaub is the only regular,
four other last year letter men have
checked out suits. George Rody.. fast
forward, is handicapped by his 1872
pounds of weight. Kenneth WEIGH
also small and light, can hardly be re-
ferred to as Handicapped by his
smallness'' because the little fellow
smeared many rival line when play
ing fullback with the K U. gridiron
warriors. However, "Kennie" doesn't
show quite as much proclivity toward
the indoor soprt. Roy Bennett has
not been in a suit for two seasons, and
Scoop Olson was in just enough games
last year to win his letter. In lieu of
these reasons, "Phog" is looking to
his freshman material, for some big
things. Speaking of big things"
Long John" Wulf, six feet six inches
in his stocking feet, is freshman at
the university this year, and halls from
the John James high school, in Wash
ington state. He trails an enviable
record in basketball behind him, and
if the short fellow can place at the
center position. Uhrlaub will be shifted
to guard.
All in all, Kansas is in a serious
way. Every other school in the val
ley seems to have an edge on the dope,
and unless Phog can again accomplish
a miracle. Kansas will have rough
shedding thru the basket ball season.

Coach E. S. Liston of Baker reports
himself in quandary over the Metho-
dist chances.
Not a letter man in school," writes
Liston. Every man on last years team
graduated last June. His only hope
lies in the freshmen and sophomore
classes, altho few juniors and seniors
have had on suits before. Liston
shows his usual aggressiveness, tho,

some of the conference contenders

Some Record for Kingman.

their total score reads: Kingman, SAL

record, and their average weight is

Kingman boys. IA to. Kingman's 81.

Coach j. H. McQuerry has undoubt-

in high school any more" Kingman

1orty-Five Try for Paramount.


Forty-Five Try for Paramount.
Kansas conference basketball seems
to be making good start in different
sections. and several coaches are get
ting right down to hard practice al
ready.
Coach w. d. Elfrink, of Paramount
writes an encouraging letter concern
ing his basket-tossers. The Wheat
shockers began their practice on the
5th, and forty-five men reported. Phil
Strauss, who gained fame in the west
ern part of the state while attending
Newton high school, by his ability to
shoot baskets. is this years captain.
He will hold down the center position.
Strauss is a mighty player and gives
his opposing center lot of trouble in
getting the tips. Otto Kliewer, who
played a guard position on the Wheat
shocker quintet last year, is again on
the court, and will make some trouble
for other contenders- Kliewer ran a
close race for the all-state position at
guard last year. and is the fastest man
on the Paramount five. Frank Jones,
last years captain, is again in the
game. and will probably play one of
the forward positions. Gardner and
Snyder. both last years letter men.

thinks his team will leave behind an

Not that l really believed Horace
could be permanently pried loose from
his fixed habits. for he's about as
skrtshy as they come. His favorite
slogan had always been. No equal
suffering for me-" meaning the hyme-
neal moose. Also he'd had a lot OF
practice in dodgin' the net, as you can
imagine.

she's quite a remarkable girl. I.
I've found out a lot about her lately.
We'll, Well" says l. Been look
ing her up in Who's Who'?
We've been having long talks.
says Horace, and she has been tell
ing me how she happened to take up
nursing. 1t seems that her father
used to be in the wholesale liquor
business up in Sprlngheld, Mass he
was one of those chaps who didn't
believe that prohibition would ever
come and so when the great drouth
did descend it caught him with most
of his capital tied up in bonded liquor.
Then his business petered out and
there he was with big family and
no income. Peggy was right in the
middle of a musical course at the
Boston Conservatory-she sings very
well, you know-but she quit all that
and studied nursing. Plucky of her,
eho It's no joke, this hospital work.
Long hours and very little pay for the
first year or so. But she's stickin to
it and doing her best
mods careless. "a lot of 'em seem
to like the life" says l.
I'm sure Peggy doesn't" says Hor-
ace, although she never makes a
complaint. But just think what it
means to a girl like her. Why, here
she has given up her music. her
friends. everything, to trot around
waiting on lot of whiny lnvalids
and disabled grouches-such as !, for
example. That's what l call tough.

near as a man can be who's just had
his plumbing revised and is still
wearin' a silver tube in his side. But
it had all come so sudden, and Horace
has had SO little experience along that
line that he's had d big scare thrown
into him.
Also" adds Mr.. Robert. "he ap-
pears rather indignant that such an
outrageous thing should be visited on
him"
gather that Horace seems to think
that long standin' conspiracy to put
him on the fritz has come to a head
in this final attempt and he don't know
just who to blame for it. Course, he
puts most of it on the doctor. who
has ordered him to lie fat on his back
eat but baby food. He's some sore on
the nurse. too, and has confided to Mr..
Robert that she's a cold-blooded,
heartless female who spoons cruel
into him with no more feelin' than
she would have in film an oil stove.
And how he's ever going to stand two
or three weeks of this he don't know.
II fear they're going to find Horace
rather difficult" says Mr. Robert,
shruggin' his shoulders. "He has been
so accustomed to having his own way
about everything, you see
Anyway. it showed up the kind of
a friend Mr.. Robert could be in a
pinch. Almost every day he finds
time to dash up tor a few minutes
with Horace, and when he cant get
there himself he never leaves for
home at night without sendin him a
chirky message. And the things he
thinks of to cart up to him--fiowers
and magazines and cheerin' books and
new puzzles. Now and then he'd send
me.

that I begun noticin' a change in

Horace seems quite interested in it,
windin' it up and watchin' it work.

And the work is too hard for her.
She's rather a frail little thing. Think
of lifting me half dozen times day,
and running back and forth from the
diet kitchen, three flights down! She
shouldn't be doing it. I'm trying to
make it as easy for her as l can by
not asking to be moved often and go

you shaking your head that way"
Il didn't know you was worse

But I'm not worse" insists Horace.
I'm feeling fine. and getting strong
every day. The doctor tells me I'll
be out in another week, which will
almost be a record recovery. Most of
it is due to Peggy, too And by the
way. Torchy, l wish you'd do a little
