Six juniors and five seniors will comprise the University of Kan sas' starting lineup Saturday, when the Jayhawkers take the field against Nebraska. At end will be Hubert Ul rich and Ward Crowell. Ulrich, a 19 year old junior, stands 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs 194. Crowell, a sen ior shifted from guard, had never played end before until "spring practice. The starting tackles will be two men who alternated at right tackle last fall, Jim Holloway and W. J. Jack Holloway, who scales In at 216, i3 now playing on the left side of the line, while Jack is doing business at the same old stand. Fine Kansas guards. At guard, Coach Gwinn Henry has a pair of men he wouldn't trade for any guards in the con ference, Quido Massare and Jay Kern. Massare, a Pennsylvania boy, Is now in his third year as a regular, while Kern, who hails from Gary, Ind., is a junior and in the starting lineup for the second season. B e spectacled Don Pierce holds forth at center for the J a yhawks. "The man from Mars" played ball last year as the KU first string center and now that he can see is doing a whale of a job back ing the line. Quarterback for Kansas is Mar vin Vandaveer, a junior from Wel lington. He is a fine play caller. IIMUI Kl a t. lass i uuun the passer for the team. Versatile backfield, At halfback, Coach Henry will start two A-l ball carriers, Ed Hall and Jake Fry. Hall is a power runner, who drives into the line furiously, while Fry is the elusive type of back. Both men stood out in last week's victory over Drake Ed Suagee. Indian boy from Oklahoma, is the Jayhawk s regu lar fullback. Suagee did not play much the past two seasons, but is going strong in this, his senior year. Game captain for the Jayhawks Saturday will not be named until shortly before the contest by Coach Henry. It is taken for granted, however, that it will be either Massare or fierce. ouu seniors and are in line for the hon or, Inasmuch as Hall and Suagee, other senior standouts, already have been game captains this fall. Yep, some 44 years ago, KU beat Nebraska at Lawrence; those Jayhawks are overdue .QUI DO MS$& By the Olde Tymer. Forty-four years ago Kansas de feated Nebraska at Lawrence in football. Since then, no Jayhawker eleven has ever turned the trick on the Kansas home field over a Husker team. The score of that particular game 44 years ago was 8 to 4. In 1896, Grover Cleveland was president of the United States. The Spanish-American fueding was about to shift into high gear. And again, it was the time of the Gay Nineties. Kansas wins four. The Huskers and the Jayhawks have played every year since 1896 except for a two year layoff (1904-05) and the Kansas lads have defeated the Nebraska boys only four times all on the Corn husker state od. It's been since 1916, however, that the Kansans have failed to win a victory either on Kansas or Nebraska sou. In the last few years, Nebraska has been hard pressed to come thru with a victory. In 1937, the Huskers scored a touchdown late in the game against an underdog Jayhawk eleven to come out of the scrap with a 13-13 tie. The Huskers had to wait until the last two minutes of the 1938 game to pull out a 16-7 victory. Close games of late. In the "good old days," the Kansas-Nebraska gridiron battles often ended in a fight. Each school charged the other with "dirty tac tics" and some games ended with the coaches taking their teams off the field before the game was fin ished. But now, it's a different story. Sportsmanship prevails and con gratulations are showered on the winner. Kansans are wondering if this will be THE year. Twenty four years of drouth-filled years of having never beaten Nebraska are bound to back water sometime. Forty-four years of never beat ing Nebraska on Kansas soil is also bound to come to a halt some time. All Nebraskans hope, na turally, that this won't be THE I year. Sig Eps, Delta Upsilon win I-M football cames Thursday afternoon saw five in tramural games played, three in the fraternity leagues and two in the barb leagues. League 4 had two games in the fraternity sched ule and one in league 1. The lat ter, between Acacia and Phi Kappa Psi, was not scheduled but was a hold-over.

Pankonin and B. Green accounted for the 13 points. Fraternities are again re minded to keep a list of outstand ing opposing players to be turned in to the DAILY at the end of the season.
