THE FRESHMEN WON THE HANDICAP MEET
Scored 35 Points to Seniors 26 in the Inter-Class Games
SURPRISE IN THE POLE VAULT
Cramer, a New Candidate For Track Honors Won The Event With
The meet was interesting throughout though there were no records broken. Good time was made in all the distance races in spite of the fact that the saucer track is eighteen laps to the mile.
The freshmen won the handicap meet held in the gymnasium last night scoring 35 points to their nearest competitor's twenty-six.
The surprise of the meet was the work of Cramer in the pole vault. Almost unknown to Kansas track followers the winner of this event vaulted eleven feet. He was not expected to reach any where near this distance and was given a 9 inch handicap over Hurst, who was expected to take the event.
The half mile was an exciting event. Fairchild at scratch overcame the leads given other competitors by the handicapper and won easily in 2:13.
In the two mile, Murray ran a plucky race, against Edwards who won the event, but was unable to overcome the three quarter lap held by the winner. Edwards handicap was not solely responsible for his victory as he won a clever, heady race.

DR. JOHNSON CALLS WILL PLAY SEVEN
OUT WOMEN SWIMMERS GAMES ON M'COOK
W. A.A. Will Organize Teams and Compete in Water
Sports
with the coming of the first warm days the Women's Athletic Association is branching into new fields, more appropriate and attractive for the time of year. The members are now organizing themselves into first and second swimming teams.
The young women of the University of Kansas have been slow in taking up this form of sport, but this has been due partly to the lack of interest of the instructors and partly to the limited number of times during the week when the pool is open to the members of the fairer gex. However under the direction of Dr. Margaret Johnson, head of the Women's Athletic Department, regular swimming classes are to be opened and all the women of the University who have any ambitions or ability in this line of sport are urged to come out.
The classes will be held every Monday and Thursday at 4:30. Yesterday afternoon a large crowd was out and all showed great interest in the formation of the teams. A number of them showed exceptional ability for swimming and Dr. Johnson believes that more expert girl swimmers in the University may be discovered if they will only come out.
It is planned at the present time to hold several matches of water pole and water games later in the season. If enough interest and ability is shown an exhibition will be given during the aquatic fete which is an annual event during commencement week.

"Big Eight" Schools Displeased With Summer Ball Compromise
Our orange ice is made from fruit
Wiedemann's.—Adv.
The results obtained at the special meeting of the Western Conference which was held recently at Chicago will probably not be lasting and the trouble which has upset the association all fall and winter is only stayed for the time being, inasmuch as the decisions arrived at were all in the nature of a compromise. In so far as clearing up the summer baseball evil is concerned, the action taken was nihil.

Compromise
CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS HELP WANTED
One of the most important pieces of legislation, however, was that making possible the passage of matter pending before the conference by a majority rather than a two-thirds vote. Minnesota, however, was unable to force the adoption of a summer baseball rule making scholarship the only basis of eligibility. The members of the Conference stood evenly divided upon the question and Minnesota was unable to force the issue. The compromise effected provides for the following rules:
Lost and Found.
WANTED -A steward at 1328 Ohio
Bell phone 2236 2t
LOST—A hat near gym Saturday night. Return to Kansan office.
A rule allowing students to play ball on summer town or semi-professional teams without compensation for services, students not allowed to play on any team under the national agreement or in outlaw leagues.
For Rent.
Modern furnished room for two students, 1011 Tennessee.
Gave power to faculties to reinstate athletes who have lost their eligibility through minor infractions in occurrence rules before entering college.
Repealed resolution prohibiting intersectional contests
Adopted employment of persons receiving pay from professional baseball clubs for services in any capacity.
}
Universities will be allowed three weeks to investigate eligibility of their players after protests are lodged.
Like all compromises it satisfies no one—the advocates of the amateur rule of eligibility can hardly consider it satisfactory since it is a departure from a time honored fetich which claims the allegiance of so many; the advocates of a purely scholarship basis find little in it to comment since it does not clear up the situation as a purely scholarship rule would clear it up.
It leaves just as many causes for
misunderstanding as exist at the present time—protests will still be possible and the temptation to lie and deceive will only be reduced slightly, since with a fair interpretation of the word "minor" the new rule will only clear technical infractions of the rules.
It can hardly be construed as permitting a man who has played baseball for money to become athletically clean by means of an immunity bath. Moreover, it opens up an entirely new field of difficulties and misunderstandings in regard to what shall constitute a "minor" infraction of the rule and the question of the comparative liberality or strictness of the various faculties which will be called upon to interpret this rule
