Kansas Captain Will Enter High Jump at Relay Carnival
Captain French of the Kansas track team will represent the Jaya-hawk athletes at the Pennsylvania relay carnival this year. He will be entered in the high jump and performances thus far this season give the K. U. star a place in that event. No other Kansas entries will be sent unless some of the men develop rapidly between now and the time of the meet.
The tenth annual intercollegiate and interscholastic relay carnival will be held at the University of Pennsylvania the last Saturday in April. A letter has been received by Coach W. O. Hamilton inviting entries from the University of Kansas. The letter asks that a relay team, besides the names of men proficient in other lines of athletics be entered. This will not be done however, as the University has not enough men in this branch of track athletics to make it a success.
This track meet held annually at the University of Pennsylvania is one of the largest in the United States. Last year 250 teams were entered and it was necessary to give out over 1000 contestants' tickets to accommodate all who attended. Two records were broken and all other records were closely tied. There are so many colleges and universities represented in this event that all records made are considered as American championship records.
K. U. SHOOTERS OUT
The Kansas Rifle Club Has Fallen by the Wayside
The Kansas University Rife Club has evidently fallen by the wideside. At least they have failed to appear in their usual place in the also ran column for the past three weeks, and the supposition therefore arises that they have ceased to be a going concern.
Massachusetts Aggies defeated North Georgia, 938 to 931.
Princeton and Massachusetts Agricultural College remain tied for first place with eight victories and no defeats in the Eastern Intercollegiate Rifle Shooting League, while the University of Iowa with seven matches to her credit and no losses is at the head of the western league.

927 to 907.

WOMEN ATHLETES ASK FOR MORE GYM ROOM
Seventy-five Basket Ball Aspirants on a "Ten-girl" Court
Court
Womens' athletics at Kansas University must have more room," said Dr. M. L. Johnson this morning." The membership of the Woman's Athletic Association has increased to a point where a new gymnasium is not only accommodating most of the members but an increase in the teaching staff as well."
"It seems as if every girl in the university has suddenly become aware of her safety."
"Over seventy-five aspirants are out for the basket-ball team and as only ten girls can be accommodated on the narrow limits of the down-stairs court a visitor to the girls' side of the gymnasium will see the sorrowful sight of a bevy of girls vainly imploring the coach to run them in just for a minute."
Tennis follows basketball with nearly fifty enrolled, while base ball ranks next in popularity with an enrollment of thirty-five. The enrollment in the tennis team as follows: track, twenty-five, swimming twenty-three, and soccer twenty.
THE GRIDIRON IS TOO SOLID.
Frozen Ground Causes Postponement
Winter Cause at Wisconsin
Grown up at Wisconsin.
Because the field at Camp Randall was too hard to permit playing football with safety to the players, the mid-year winter game between them and Richard's football class at the University of Wisconsin, scheduled for today, was postponed until March 9. At that time it is hoped the ground will have thawed sufficiently to allow the Badger mentor's proteges to engage in the first real spring exhibition football game ever attempted by any college. The cancellation of the football game today caused a postponement of the opening of the midwinter sport carnival until tomorrow, when a toggabank contest on the University slide will inaugurate the season.

A. A. U. HELPS KICK SUMMER BALL AROUN'
Sweaters, sweaters, Jerseys, big discount at Smith's News Depot.—Adv.
Threatens Breach With Colleges if Strict Rule Is Given Up
After the college faculties, conferences and other governing boards had finished kicking the summer baseball players around the campus for the steenth time they have received reinforcements.
Moral support has arrived in the form of a loud wail from the officials of the A. A. U. who are inclined to believe that the growth of summer ball among college players has been cutting down the athletic material of the Amateur Athletic Union.
The Athletic clubs even go so far as to say that if the college teams in the west open to the summer baseball players there will be a complete break between the two.
The new Big Eight Conference rules will not work any hardship on the athlete while in college in any meet sanctioned by the A. A. U. but the rub will come after graduation when it will be impossible for him to play again as an amateur athletic club, and strictly professional clubs are scarce.
According to the rules of the A. A. U. an athlete becomes a professional the minute he competes with a professional and that would include semi-pro teams or other teams on which any member is paid. It will make no difference whether the college athlete himself receives any money as he steps out of the amateur ranks the first time he competes with professionals.
"I do not know what action the National A. A. U. will take should any case come before it," said Everett C. Brown, who is prominent in the Western Branch of the A. A. U., "but should I be asked to vote on the eligibility of a man who has competed with professionals regardless of whether he received money or not, I would be compelled to declare the man a professional. An amateur might not be financially benefited by playing with professionals, but the suspicion would be strong just the same, and we want to avoid the appearance of evil.
"The A. A. U. has nothing to do with any action taken by colleges, as we have especially kept out of college baseball, but naturally should a college man wish to compete in any meet sanctioned by the A. A. U. we would naturally have to look up his record, and if that record showed that he had competed with professionals he would be barred.
"Now there is a distinction between competing against and with professionals which should not be lost sight of. A college team might compete against a professional team without professionalizing any of the members, but it is different when the men compete with professionals. Allowing a man to compete with professionals, or those who take money for exhibiting their skill, would have the effect of putting temptations in his way and the A. A. U. has always frowned on that practice, as it is practically impossible
to prove whether or not money has been paid out or received."
Some Fine Distinctions
In the past the colleges and the A. A. U. have never been able to meet on a common ground except in isolated cases. There has been friction continually and the charges have been made that the A. A. U. has been too lax in the enforcement of amateur rules. New officers of the A. A. U. think that the shoe will be on the other foot should the different faculties of the college conference back up the action taken Saturday. A number of the minor colleges had previously taken action in regard to summer ball, letting the bars down without specifying with what kind of teams the college athletes could play.
NEW RULES WILL STAY
Yale Football Captain Believes Changes are Permanent.
Captain Jesse Spalding of the Yale football eleven, believes that the rules which have been adopted for next fall will be a success. He said today that he thought that they would be a permanent code, and would provide plenty of scoring. He said:
"Last fall coaches and captains were compelled to lie awake devising an attack. None was found by anybody that divulged a scoring play for the decisive games. The season of 1911 vanished without a scoring play. I predict that there will be plenty of scoring in 1912. The new rules make tallying easier, and the coaches will spend their time during the season planning a defense rather than an attack.
"The new rule relating to the forward pass at the end of the field was unexpected by most football captains. I had little idea that it would be adopted, but I have no wish to condemn it. There is considerable uncertainty, however, as to how it will work out. It is likely to assist in more frequent scoring."
