ALLEN FAVORED T0 WIN BIE SIX CHAMPIONSH Nearly Everybody Con-| cedes it but Dean of Coaches Himself By CHARLES GRUMICH ‘ Associated Press Sperts Writer | KANSAS CITY, Jan. 7—It will take one of the greatest upsets in years to prevent the University of Kanszas from running its string of Big Six basketball championships to five straight, in the opinion of all the conference coaches except one —Dr. F. C. Allen of Kansas. The five rival coaches point to the return of the champion Jayhawk team of last season virtually intact and to a promising group of sopho- | mores, including a 6-foot-7 center. ! Dr. Allen, dean of Midwestern coaches and pilot of 12 champions in 17 campaigns with Kansas, isn't con- | ceding himself anvthing. “Now that tney'vi awarded it to Kansas, all we have to do is play | for it,” he says. ‘ /ing members of the 1934 cast are equally among Kansas, Towa State night of December 28. the fight. al tional News Photo.

Since the dynamic Keogan took | over the destinies of Notre Dame’s basketball, his teams have been outstanding, meeting some of the stiffest competition in the nation, but this year's assignment is a tough one. In the first place, early season practice was handicapped by the absence of two of the most prom- ising veterans, both of whom are members of the football team and gridders were in California. They are Marty Peters, center, and Don Elser, guard. Both stand six feet three inches tall and tip the scales at over 200 pounds each. Keogan plans to build his attack around them. The only other lettermen on hand when the call went out for basketball practice were John Ford, forward; George Ireland, guard; Capt.-Elect John Jordan, a forward who has been shifted to guard, and Joe O'Kane, forward.

After the traditional opener against Kalamazoo and another practice tilt against Albion, the j Irish embark on a 23-game sched- ule that includes Stanford, at home and an invasion of the East when such teams as Pittsburgh, New | York university, Holy Cross will be encountered. In the Big Ten Notre Dame has scheduled Northwestern, Minneso- ta, Chicago, Ohio State, and Illi- nois. For the first time in several seasons neither Purdue nor Indi- ana from that section of the Hoos- ier state famous for its basket- ball teams, appears on the Irish card, but a home-and-home se- ries has been arranged with But- ler college, always a strong con- tender for all-Indiana honors. Last year the Irish played a 24- game schedule, winning all but four of their encounters. However, two of their defeats were at the hands of their old rivals, the Pitt Panthers, and as a result this year's two-game series with Pittsburgh promises to top the card in inter- est. - >-os - v — Sport BY ALAN GOULD BABE RUTH continues on his merry vacation trip around the world—unconcerned about his base- ball future, if any. While Ruth is content to wander afar and rest his case on his ulti- matum—to manage a major league baseball team or retire from base- ball—the owners also go about their business free from any apparent distress. But the baseball fans, the ones who make club owners possible, are very much concerned in knowing how the Babe will fare in his wait- ing game with the league owners. ‘They cannot understand why six- teen major league owners are not clamoring for his services as man- ager. They even go so far as to sus- pect some sinister plot to keep the Big Boy out of the game.

These things are foreign to baseball and | perhaps unnecessary. A real pennant | contender will do the trick in most | cases.

For all I know the Babe might prove a dismal failure in handling | @ ball club, but I don't see how any | club could fail to cash in on his | reputation at least his first season |at the helm. Until he fails as a manager it is only fair, on the strength of his baseball record, to assume that he can fill the bill. If Judge Emil Fuchs really feels he must find some means of keeping his Boston Braves in the race for the favor of the Boston fans, he can have it without causing the whole baseball world to throw up its hands in dismay as it did when he men- tioned grayhound racing. All he need do is to sign the Babe to manage his | Braves. It's a natural! Ruth began his big league career in the Hub City. If you wan: a testi- monial as to his personal popular- ity in that city consider the amaz- | Ing demonstration on the occasion of his farewell game in Boston last season. Feecling they were ringing !dnwn the curtain on his brilliant playing career, fans stood and cheer- ed him for fully 15 minutes after he had departed from the field. He would be a popular manager in Boston—and Boston shouid be one of the best baseball towns in the country. TYme was when it was the best. Baseball and Babe Ruth are even —neither owes the other a thing. But if the baseball club owners are short-sighted enough to pass up the golden opportunity the Babe offers it is unlikely they will be able to solve their other problems. - |Wife Hurled Trays, Then Gave Apologies NEW YORK, Jan. 7.
