UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN FOOTBALL MENU FOR HURRIES EASTWARD 1912 SEAON IS READY TO SAVE HIS GAME The Jayhawker Gridiron "Gladiators" Will Meet Eight Opponents TIGERS IN THE GRAND FINALE Scene of Sooner Game in Doubt St. Marys and Baker Changed Positions on Schedule The Kansas University football schedule for 1912 is practically settled. Eight games will be played. The single problem that still remains for the season is whether the Kansas-Oklahoma game will be played here in Norman. If the game is played here the Washburn contest will be in Topeka again this year. It is probable however that the Oklahoma game will go to the Sooner homestead as the annual affair has alternated regularly between the two schools since relations were first commenced. ST. MARY'S MOVES TO FIRST PLACE. ST. MARY'S MOVES TO FIRST PLACE. The surprise that Baker sprang on the K. U. gladiators last fall, together with the apparent weakness of St. Mary's, has led to a change in the relative positions of these two schools on the University schedule. St. Mary's will open the schedule on October 5. The Methodists will appear the following week. SCHEDULE LIGHTER THAN MISSOURI'S Drake and the Manhattan Aggies have also exchanged positions. The order of the remaining games on the schedule is the same as last year. The trouble that threatened with Washburn was easily settled as the Topeka school felt that the Kansas game was more important than any other on the schedule and was glad to make the change that was necessary to secure a game with K. U. The schedule this year, though it embraces the leading universities of the Missouri Valley and of the Kansas schools in this section conference, appears to be much lighter than that of the other big schools of this section. Missouri meets every team in the Missouri Valley Conference, while Nebraska plays Michigan, Minnesota, Ames, and Missouri, as well as Kansas. These facts, coupled with the careful makeup of the Kansas bill of fare, make it appear that the Kansas team already has the advantage of condition in the coming season. The biggest games of the season will be the Kansas-Nebraska and the Kansas-Missouri contests. The first of these battles will take place in Lincoln November 16. The annual struggle with the Tiger will be staged in Lawrence November 23 and will be the final game of the season. THE SCHEDULE. THE SCHEDULE. October 5—St. Marys at Lawrence.

The Rules Committee Will Try to Abolish Block System and Adopt No-Contact! Style. On account of the recent action taken by many of the Colleges of the East concerning the abolishing of basket-ball because of the rough style of playing in vogue a special meeting of the Rules Committee has been called to consider a change in the rules. Dr. James Naisimith of this University, a member of the Rules Committee left last night for New York where the meeting will be held the early part of next week. Before leaving Dr. Naisimith said that the Committee would probably take some definite action as to whether basketball should be played as the no-contact or the blocking style of game. As many of the Eastern Colleges decided to drop basket-ball on the grounds that as it was then played it was nothing more than a prize fight it is probable that the Committee will rule that the officials henceforth make the teams observe the no-contact game. By no-contact game is meant the style of playing observed by Kansas and the majority of the Missouri Valley teams during the past season. In the no-contact game a man is not allowed to rough his opponent by blocking and shouldering as is allowed in the system now in disfavor in the east. Nebraska uses the block system. Dr. Naismith has been making inquiries since the close of the season as to the view in this matter taken by the schools in the Missouri Valley Conference concerning the style of game, to be played. With but few exceptions they desired that either the no-contact style be observed or basket-ball be abolished. PROF. HOPKINS SPEAKS AT ANN ARBOR FRIDAY Goes to Tell the Schoolmasters' Club About Work of Committee Prof. E. M. Hopkins leaves the city this evening for Ann Arbor to deliver an address on Friday before the Michigan Schoolmasters' Club on "The Present Status of the Teacher of English." This address will embody the results to date of two years' work of the Modern Language Association committee of which Professor Hopkins is chairman, and will outline work remaining to be done which will require perhaps another year for completion. The committee is acting with the endorsement and support of two national organizations of teachers and the direct cooperation of school officers in every state. It has just printed 10,000 copies of its final questionnaire on the comparative cost of the teaching of English and other secondary school subjects, and the results should be ready for publication before the end of the present year. "The preliminary report of the committee on the present conditions of English teaching" is now in its ninth edition, and has reached a total of almost 15,000 copies.

Misiouri Baseball Games Have Chinese Baseball Team Will Missouri Baseball Games Have Been Temporarily Abandoned--"Wet Grounds" On account of the wet condition of McCook field and the lack of out door practice for the varsity it is probable that the baseball games with Missouri which were to have been played Monday and Tuesday of next week will be postponed to either the 8th and 9th or the 10th and 11th. This action was taken by the management of this University after seeing that it will almost be impossible for either team to show their real strength on a field which at present is nothing more than a lake. If this arrangement can be made it will probably better Kansas prospects. At present the varsity boys have had but two out door work outs. Dr. J. N. Van der Vries, who recently left the University on account of his health, reports that he is gaining in weight and strength, and hopes to be able to be in good condition to re-enter the University next fall. Professor Van der Vries is still trying the open air treatment, and with Mrs. Van der Vries will remain in Texas until entirely well His address is Belen, Texas. DR. VAN DER VRIES IMPROVES IN SOUTH LAST SUNDAY SCHOOL GAME The final series in the Sunday school basket ball league will be played this evening in Robinson gymnasium. There will be a double-header between the Congregationalists and Methodists and the Presbyterians and Baptists. The first game will be called at seven thirty finals in The Basket Ball Game in The Gym Tonight. CHI OMEGA WILL CREATER FOUNDERS' DAY, MARCH 30 Send the Daily Kansan home.

Chinese Baseball Team Wil Meet Sherwin's Squad April 18 The students of the University of Kansas will have a chance to see a Chinese baseball team in action here on April 18th when the Ah Sings will try to make life miserable for the Sherwin hopeful. The travelling Orientals represent the College of Hawai'i, of Honulu, Hawaiiian Islands. The men who compose the team are students in the Agricultural and Mechanical Arts departments of the College. The Hawaiian team will arrive in the United States March 28. After a short rest they will begin their schedule with two games against the University of California team. After meeting the leading College teams on the Pacific slope the travellers will invade the east. That the Chinese team is a real baseball machine is shown by the fact that they are the champions of the Islands and have defeated every team of any consequence in Hawaii. They have also taken the measure of the majority of army and navy teams they have met and have defeated several organizations of travelling players from the United States.
