UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
GRAPPLERS CHOSEN FOR A. A. U.MEET
Jayhawkers Will Be Represented in Four Weights Saturday Night
The grapplers except in the light weight who will represent the University of Kansas in the wrestling tournament of the Western Association of the Amateur Athletic Union to be held in the K. C. A. C. gymnasium Saturday night, March 9, have been chosen and will leave for Kansas City Saturday morning. The light weights have not yet been chosen and the decision of this class is hanging between two wrestlers who will meet on the mat tomorrow afternoon. The men who won out in the preliminaries and who will be sent to Kansas City are as follows: Heavy weight, Hemphill; welter weight, Early; middle weight, Roberts; light weight Humes or Smith The tryouts were held in the gymnasium this last week and the men were chosen from the best two out of three falls. All of the classes were fairly well represented in the tryouts and the men sent are representative in this line of sport.
While this is the first tournament of its kind to be held in Kansas City, Dr. J. A. Reilly, director of athletics at the K. C. A. C. club hopes to make it an annual event. That interest in wrestling has taken a big jump towards the front in all of the conference schools, is proven by the fact that three of the largest Missouri Valley schools will have men in this meet. Nebraska will send four or five men, Missouri at least two and Kansas four. The meet will be open only to amateurs and the amateur rules of the A. A. U. will be rigidly enforced. The athletic club will have eight or nine entries and probably that many more will be entered from other organizations in the city.
C. B. Root, director of the wrestling team, said this morning, "I believe that our team has as good a chance as any to win the tournament Saturday night. While the game of wrestling is comparatively new at the University of Kansas the men have taken to it with a great deal of interest and are capable of making a good showing against an amateur grapplers in the Missouri Valley. At this is the first event of the kind ever held it is probable that the men will not make as good a showing as they will in future years; but it will nevertheless be excellent training for the team and will give them some good pointers for next year."

TAKE TWO LOOKS BEFORE YOU DRINK
Student Reports Flies and Bugs in "Pure" Distilled
Water
Prof. H. Louis Jackson, head of the department of food analysis, is of the opinion that people are beginning to take an increased interest in the things they eat and drink "We receive samples of food much oftener than formerly". Professor Jackson said. "It means that the food adulterators now have the people to avoid as well as the inspectors.
A University student who has been buying distilled water from an up-town grocery store noticed that the large bottle often came to him unsealed but thought nothing of it until he received one which had a few bags and flies resting on the bottom. He reported the matter to Prof. Jackson and an afildevit has been made out against the distilling company. The case will be taken up by the State Board of Health at Topeka.
"It is a great encouragement to us in our work," said Professor Jackson, "to see that the people are beginning to take an interest in the law and its enforcement. People do not commonly understand the adulteration law as applying to food stuff that is dirty. When it is understood that dirty milk and tainted meats are covered by this law, we expect to have even more work to do. We want the people of Kansas to understand that there is a place where their food can be tested."
Y. W. C. A. IS FEARING
A DEFICIT OF $200
The report of the finance committee of the Y. W, C. A. shows that the Association is in danger of coming up at the end of the year with a deficit of two hundred dollars or more. The amount of the deficit only about $200 for the $400 counted on from the student members has been received from the 300 student members.
Only $800 Collected to Meet a Budge of $1,000. But Membership day Will Sweell the Amount.
It takes about $1,000 to keep up the various departments of the association, including social activities, missionary department and practical service work. The University Y. W. C. A. employs a regular student secretary, supports a campus government and centrifies toward the partial support of a University of Kansas girl working as Y. W. C. A. organizer in Calcutta, India.
The budget for the running expenses of the association is estimated at $1,000 a year. This money comes from several sources; this year the committee estimated $350 from the sustaining members, about $250 from the Alumni luncheon and last years May Fete, and $400 from student members. The shortage in this last named fund however is causing the trouble but the Finance Committee hopes to make up this deficit shortly, as an active campaign is already on foot to get all members to pay up their dues and pledges by March 6 when a membership day will be held at Myers hall.
Jayhawker's Success Lies in Playing in Conformance to Conference Rules
WILL NEBRASKA USE NEW "KANSAS DANCE" HER BLOCK SYSTEM? FEATURE OF KIRMESS
"The outcome of th. Missouri Valley Basket-ball championship games between Kansas and Nebraska will depend to a large extent on how strictly the officials enforce the rules concerning Missouri Valley basket-ball," said Coach Hamilton this morning.
The rules referred to are those concerning whether the style of playing shall be the no-contact game in which the men are supposed to play the ball and not the man, or the present system used by Eastern teams, which is nothing less than modified football. At a meeting of the Missouri Valley officials last fall an agreement was made by all of the schools playing under Missouri Valley rules that the teams should play the no-contact game. This prohibits all holding, blocking with the hip or shoulder, running into a man or rough playing of any sort. If the presiding officials allow the "block system" of playing to be used in the championship games the Kansas basket-ball players will be greatly handicapped, while on the other hand Nebraska playing this style of basket-ball will suffer an equal handicap if the rules concerning the Missouri Valley style of playing are strictly enforced. It is a case of two teams playing an altogether different style of basketball either of which will be greatly handicapped playing the other style of game. Nebraska seems to be the one in the wrong as she is not keeping the agreement she made to play under the Missouri Valley rules.
The neutral court has not yet beer chosen on which to play the third game. As the authorities were not able to secure Convention Hall in Kansas City the game will either be played at Manhattan, Omaha, or on some other court in Kansas City Representatives from Kansas and Nebraska will meet at Kansas City Saturday and flip to see on which court the first game is to be played
ATHLETIC KANSAN WON
Young American Won Cup in English High School Meet
O'Leary won first place in the high jump, broad jump, and the hundred yard dash, scoring 25 points which was 15 more than his nearest competitor. For these, he was given a loving cup, on which was engraved the events that he won and the records which he made.
Dorman O'Leary, son of Prof. R D. O'Leary of the department of English, attended Oxford high school last year and won the Junior cup The Junior cup is awarded to the boy who wins the most points in the annual track meet which is compulsory for all students of that school.
America's young athletes are as far superior to these European competitors as are the adult preformers The latest example of this was given last year by the performances of a Kansas high school boy in England.
The junior cup, which he was awarded, is to be kept one year and then passed on to next year's winner. When anyone scores a total of 50 points during their attendance at school, they are given a cup similar to the Junior cup, which they may keep.

"The Kansas Kirmess" is the name given by the Women's Student Government Association to their entertainment in April.
A special feature of the Kirmess will be the Kansas Dance. The Queen of the Dances will be enthroned in the center of a huge sunflower. The dancers will circle about her to form a sunflower chain.
"The idea was suggested to us," said Miss Beulah Murphy, persistent of the Association, "by the daisy chain which is one of the most picture-que parts of the May-day festivities at one of the eastern colleges. But we want to make this Kansas dance 'typical of the Sunflower State.'"
The Queen of the Dances will be selected from the Senior class, and her attendants from each of the four classes.
