The University of Kansas basketball team will face Notre Dame in Chicago on December 20 to open the 1936 season. Kansas and Notre Dame met in Kansas City in 1923 with Notre Dame winning, and Kansas previously visited San Francisco for games with California. Dr Forrest C Allen arranged the Chicago game after declining an offer for Madison Square Garden due to Big Six dates to be set at Lincoln. A football opener with Notre Dame is also planned for South Bend on September 28. Normal exports of American grown barley tobacco are only about 3 percent of the total crop.
