UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SLUFFED A GAME TO THE KANSAS AGGIES Stuckey's Stars Lost to the Manhattan Grangers 33 to 28 Bv Staff Correspondent. In a fierce basket battle the Jay- hawkers were defeated by the Aggies at Manhattan last night. The score was 33 to 28. In the second half the Kansas men worked well and scored point for point with the locals but could not overcome the lead held by the Agies. A rebound in Calhoun's California last minute of play made the game certain for the Agies. The Kansas team started the game in a slow fashion and did not wake till the middle of the first half when the Farmer lads had a good lead. Hard work and perseverance led to KU team within two points of their opponents at the close of the period. Stuckey played the best game for Kansas. Brown was so well covered by Whiple that he was unable to do his accustomed service in making field goals but made six free throws for his team. McCallum and Whipple were the particular stars of the Aggie Aggregation. Agges G. F. FT McCallum, f 5 2 0 Sanders, f 5 1 3 Hehn, e 4 2 0 Whipple, g 4 3 0 Holmes, g 0 2 0 15 10 3 K. U. G F, FT.

STAR AT ILLINOIS "Butch" Cowell Making Good in His First Year Athletics "Butch" Cowell who was a star preformer on the 1910 Kansas football team is making good with a will at Illinois University this year. Cowell played a tackle on the Freshman-Varsity team there this year. This team is composed of men who have earned their athletic letters in other schools, but who are spending their first year at Illinois and are therefore not eligible for the varsity there. Cowell was one of the five men who were chosen from a squad of 27 to receive a letter this year. This recognition points to Cowell as a strong candidate for a Varsity position next fall. After the close of the football season Cowell went in for swimming and made the Freshman-Varsity water polo team. While members of this team are not eligible to compete in conference contests the freshman eligibility rule is suspended in meets with the aquatic representatives of the Amateur Athletic Union. In the contests with the Athletic Club and in that with the Missouri Athletic Club of St. Louis, Cowell has replaced one of the regular members of the Illinois team. In all probability this means a place or the squad next year. For receptions and parties see Wiedemann's for the refreshments - Adv. Fresh salted almonds at Wiede man's.—Adv.

Realizing that the presence of Charles and Harold Woodbury on the Kansas track team this year will decide whether or not the team will be successful in defeating the other schools in the valley, the track men have signed a petition to Mr. Woodbury, the father of the Kansas City athletes that he allow them to reenter athletic. Since the Woodburys announced that they would not compete for Kansas this spring on account of parental objection, there has been a lack of interest over the track work and there have been misgivings felt by Coach Hamilton and the members of the squad over the prospects. Without Tod and Buzz, the pole vault and the hurdles, which had been practically ceded to the Jay were to be the weakest points of the team. On the other hand should Mr. Woodbury consent to the petition and allow his sons to run for Kansas, track prospects will be as bright at as any time in the history of the school. In contrast with previous years the Jayhawks are showing up strong this year in the distractions. DR.WM KUHN TALKED ON MEDICAL PROFESSION Says More Opportunity for Doing Good is Offered Than in Any Other Occupation. "The Appeal of the Medical Profession" was the subject of the talk before the Y. M. C. A. last night by Dr. William F. Kuhn of Kansas City. "The Medical profession," said the doctor, "offers a man better opportunity to be a success in this world than does any other occupation, if you mean by success the amount of good one can do. The man must be physically morally, and mentally equipped and then the victory is his." "The profession," Dr. Kuhn continued, "has made rapid advances in the last fifteen years. The man who enters the profession now must have college training. A direct result of this is that many graduates out of school only five years are leaders, and those who became doctors before a thorough education was demanded must take the background."

"Scully" Waugh, president of the freshman class has issued a call for freshmen track men to start work for the handicap meet to be held March 18. In the first year class are several men who have won distinction in the track athletics of other schools and the outlook is very promising for the team of 1915. Among the freshmen who promise to shine on the path are "Herbic" Coleman, in the weights, "Dutch" Martin and John Hamilton in the dashes and hurdles and Leonard Hurst in the pole vault. Hurst is an especially valuable man in his event, going over the bar at over eleven feet at the present time. The meet will give an excellent opportunity for the 1915 men to get in line for varsity track next year and will also be a great aid to the 1913 team in preparing for their season.
