UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
THEWOODBURYS AND AMMONS QUIT TRACK
Last Year's Stars Will Not Try for Team This Season.
HEAVY LOSS TO KANSAS TEAM
All Three Men Were Certain Poin Winners in Missouri Valley Athletics
The hopes of the Kansas track enthusiasts were dashed last night when the Woodburys and Ammons failed to appear in the Baker meet. For some time it has been rumored that the men did not intend to compete for the Red and Blue this year, but the story was not credited, as the men had in the past season been the mainstay of the Red and Blue, and the idea of their withdrawal had been too painful to entertain.
Ammons has decided to star on the diamond this year and is working every night in a baseball suit. The Missouri Valley rule which prohibits participation in more than two sports each year will keep the football captain out of track if he succeeds in placing on the base ball sound.
The Woodbury boys are staying out of athletics this semester because of
Ammons is the holder of the University discus record with a throw of 116 feet, 7 inches, made in 1910. In competition last year he was one of the most consistent winners of the Kansas team and placed in every meet in which he was entered. In the Nebraska meet he scored first in the shot and second in the discus and in the Missouri Valley Conference meet he repeated the performance.
Tod Woodbury holds the University records in the high hurdles, the low hurdles and the pole vault. He was a ten-pointman in any meet in which he entered, as he could place in the hurdles, the vault, and generally in the high jump. In the Convention Hall meet last year he took fifteen points; in the Nebraska meet thirteen, and in the Missouri meet on McCook he scored thirteen. He was the only man to break a University record while a freshman, setting a new pole vault mark in his first year.
Buzz Woodbury is another, who has not failed to place in a meet since he entered the University. He ran in both the high and the low hurdles, and Buzz Woodbury was good for a place in the broad jump in nearly every meet.
DEFI TO COLLEGE FIVE
Faculty Goal Tossers Hurl Challenge in Students' Teeth
The worm has turned.
A group of the more athletic, inclined professors of this institution, downtrodden for years, the butt of student wit, pictured as a group of bloodless and emotionless creatures by rising cartoonists, have resolved to show the boys.
The secret is out.
The faculty has privately organized a real basket-ball team, under the tutorage of a no less distinguished person than Dr. James Naismith with the avowed intention of collecting a few stray scalps from the College basket-ball team.
Boldly the pros, came out of their hiding places this morning and hurled the following defi at a bunch of surprised but not yet frightene College men: "We the members of the faculty basket-ball team, thereby challenge the College basket-ball team of this University to a game of basket-ball to be played in the gymnasium at half past four o'clock some afternoon in the near future suitable to all parties concerned."
As yet little is known of the strength of this team beyond the fact that a group of the professor have been holding secret practice in the gymnasium for the last several weeks. It is rumored that several old stars will appear in their line up so who can tell what the result of the fractas may be?

BASKET BALL TEAM INTO FOREIGN LANDS
Leave Tomorrow on Four Days Trip to Decide Southern Championship.
The basket-ball team leaves at 8:15 tomorrow morning on a four days' trip to play the last conference games of the season with Missouri and Washington universities., These games are expected to be the hardest of the schedule, and though it will only be necessary for the Kansas team to win two out of the four games in order to cick the ball, they must win both the formation of the Missouri Valley, the men will have to fight hard for every point obtained.
The Jaykawkers will arrive in the Tiger hair tomorrow afternoon and will play there Wednesday and Thursday nights. While Captain Stuckey believes that his men can take both of these games, he expects some hard rough playing on both sides. The team will leave for St. Louis Thursday night after the game and will play the first game with the Pikeways Friday evening. The outcome of the games with the Washington boys is especially doubtful. When Coach Hamilton's men mixed with them on the home court last week they put up the hardest game of the season and they were at that time tired out after a long trip and a strenuous schedule. This time it will be the Jayhawkers who will be at the end of a long trip and on a foreign court and their most classy playing will have to come to the lead if they wish to come out in the lead. Nevertheless the Kansas men are playing their best at the present time and the team feels fairly confident of carrying off the southern division championship with honors. The team will leave St. Louis at 11-30 Saturday night.
The following men will make the trip:
Coach Hamilton, Stuckey, "Red"
Brown, Boehm, Smith, Snyder, Baldwin,
Hite, and Greenlees.
Thursday, March 29th the basket ball team will journey to Manhattan and play the Aggies one game. From there they will go to Lincoln, Nebraska and will play two more games with the Cornhuskins on their home court. These latter games are not on the conference schedule.
INDUSTRIAL FELLOWS
LECTURE IN KANSAS CITY
Edward Weidlein and Ward Tillotson
Addressed the American Chemical
Society Saturday Night.
E. R. Weidlein and E. V. Tillotson, who hold fellowships in the Industrial Chemistry, department, addressed the Kansas City Section of the American Chemical society, which held its February meeting at the Kansas City Y. M. C. A. last Saturday night.
The subject of Mr. Weidlein's address was "Adrenaline, Its Sources and Chemical Nature." Following this lecture he gave an informal talk on "Whale Fishing in Labrador," illustrated with lantern slides, made from pictures taken in New Foundland by Mr. Weidlein.
Dr. Olinger will start a class in "Missions and World Problems" at Westminster House at 4:30 Tuesday afternoon. All who are interested in this important subject are urged to join the class.
Mr. Tillotson talked upon "The Relation of Some Physical Properties of Glass to Its Chemical Composition."
Out in Montana they call them "does." That sounds a whole lot better than "hen" and isn't near so threadbare as "co-ed."

KANSAS ATHLETES DEFEAT METHODISTS
K. U. Easily Wins First Indoor Meet of the 1912 Season
THE RESULTS DISAPPOINTING
Hamilton's Men Showed Strength in Distance Events But Were Weak in Dashes.
At the first indoor track meet of the season held in Robinson gymnasium last night Coach Hamilton's men ran away from the Baker representatives by a score of 64 to 29 This was the fourth annual meet to be held with the Bakerites and as usual was nothing more than a large tryout for the Kansas men. The showing however was poor and the boys from Baldwin scored more points on the Jayhawkers than in previous years.
One mile, Patterson first, Merry second, time 4:45.
Patterson, Murray, and Hazen showed up most prominently for the University of Kansas, while Parker and Martin scored the most points for Baker. The meet started out with Coach Scheerher's men pushing the Jayhawkers strong and at the end of the fourth event, the quarter mile, the score stood 16 all. It was in the dash events where the K track enthusiasts fell short but in the long distance and field events they pulled rapidly away from their weaker opponents. It was in these latter events that Patterson, Murray, and Hazen showed forth their promising qualities. Patterson did exceedingly well in the mile and half mile, while Murray showed wonderful endurance in the two mile. He gained four laps on the other entries in this race and broke his own indoor record of 10:21. He made the distance last night in 10:17:4.
25 yard high hurdle, Hazen first Martin second, time 4.1.
Captain French was in his usual form last night and cleared the bar in the high jump at a height of 6 feet. Hazen also made good in this event, besides taking first in the high hurdles. The four lap relay race was one of the hardest fought events of the evening and was lost by Coach Hamilton's men in the las lap.
The events and their results were as follows: 25 yard dash, Parker first, Babb second, time 3:3.
Quarter mile, Martin first, Smiti second, time 58:2.
25 yard low hurdle, Parker first Hazen second, time 4:1.
Half mile, Fairchild first, Patter son second, time 2:12.
220 yard dash, Davis first, Parker second, time : 24.

COLLEGE TEAM TOURS
Basket Ball Five Will Play Four Games on
Trip.
YOUR OLD FRIEND
The College basket-ball team left this morning for a four days trip through Kansas.
On tomorrow afternoon they will tackle the highly touted Aggie freshman quint at Manhattan. The Aggies are expecting all kinds of trouble as they are laboring under the impression that the College five is composed of men who have played their Missouri Valley allotment and are therefore ineligible for the Varsity squad.
On Wednesday the College travellers will meet the terrible Swedes of Bethany. The Lindsborg crowd met and defeated the College boys in Robinson gym recently and the prospects are that they will repeat the dose.
Thursday the game will be played with the Minneapolis Athletic club Earl Woodward ex-captain of the K U. squad is the leader of the short grass team and will do his share in keeping the Kansas visitors busy.
On Friday night the team will meet Washburn at Topeka. This is the game that they are most anxious to win and which promises to be the hardest contested struggles of the trip, in an earlier game played or the local court the College defeated the Blue 32 to 30.
The following men will make the trip: Brown, Beamer, Crawford Branine, Eisle, Kent, and T. Smith Coach Jay Bond will accompany the team.
Ex-Football Man From Baker Here E. M. Mulvaney, of Baker University, visited Friday at the Sasnak house and investigated the course of Law given at the University. He was on his way to his home in Salida, Colorado, but will probably enter the University next fall. Mulvaney played right guard on the Baker football team for three years.
