UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
A BLACK EYE FOR THE JUNGLE KING
Jayhawkers Won First Baseball Game Erom the Tigers 8 to 2
AMMONS THE BATTING HERO
Performance of Kansas Team in Initial Appearance Points to a Successful Season.
Sherwin's baseball hopes made their bow to the University fans and a number of Kansas editors yesterday afternoon. They proved to be real hopes too, for they aweup with such force on the Missouri Tiger that one of the beast's optics was sadly discolored.
The score of the battle was 8 to 2. In the very opening sessions of the meeting, after two were down, the fireworks started. Coolidge gave a life and Hicks singled him to third. Captain Ammons, one time football and track hero, then placed his name on the roll of baseball fame by slamming the ball against the left field fence. By the time the Tigers had relayed the ball home Rock-Crusher was decorating the bench with a satisfied smile on his countenance and the official scored her chalked up three scores for Kansas.
RESULT OF GAME NEVER IN DOUBT
From the time that Ammons turned loose his huge swat till the last man fell there was no question as to the result of the game. Kansas in general and "Jack" Walker in particular had the visitors' number. It was only in the sixth innning that the Tiger showed his teeth; the rest of his efforts were confined to feeble growls.
In that period an error and two hits, together with Hall's clever steal of third base brought two twisting players across the plate for their only scores.
The Missouri team appeared to be a weak hitting aggregation and were especially feeble in that department when hits were needed badly. When they did get on bases however they worked well and also showed ability in the field.
CAPTAIN HALL STARRED FOR MISSOURI
Captain Hall led his team in all around baseball. He made two hits, stole a pair of bases, scored one of
the tiger's two runs, and accepted his nine chances without an error.
Walker, for Kansas, pitched a steady game and had the visitors under control at all times. He allowed but six hits and gave but one pass to first, this when Taylor stepped in front of one of his slow ones.

Fill Out the Application Blank and Jump Into the
Bucket
Since the whitewash system has been adopted by the Missouri Valley Conference the Conference eligibility committee have arranged a regular blank form which the candidate for reinstatement has to fill out and present to the committee.
The men will be requested to answer the following questions, and on these answers the restatement to full amateur standing, if a violation of the rule has occurred, will depend.
Name in Tun Home address.
Name of institution and when matriculated.
Represented above institution,
when and name sport,
Represented other institutions,
presented other institutions,
If you participated as a member of the team, not connected with an educational institution, state when,
where and the name of the organization.
Are you acquainted with the Amateur rule as defined on page 20, Missouri Valley Conference Hand Book?
State frankly and to the best of our knowledge whether you have ever violated the above mentioned rule. If so state plainly and frankly, the name of organization concerned and the general nature of the violation.
The above signed statement of the baseball players will be sent to the Committee on Eligibility of the Missouri Valley Conference and they have full power to decide as to whether a man can play or not. The committee is, chiefman, D. W. Morehouse, University. Prof. S. W. Beyer, Iowa State College, and Prof. D. W. Morehouse, Drake University.
NO MORE WRESTLING
Lack of Support in Other Valley Schools Is The
Cause.
The attempt to put on a dual meet with Missouri has fallen through because of the failure of the Missouri student body to take sufficient interest in the sport to support a wrestling team. As none of the other schools of this division are actively interested in this sport it is probably that no further attempts will be made to secure matches for the Kansas Meat Eaters.
Unless the unexpected happens the University grapplers have reached the end of their schedule. Their hard work in preparing for the tournaments that they hoped be staged this spring has been in vain.
Coach Root however expects that in the near future wrestling will be made a Missouri Valley Conference sport.
TO SEND THREE TEAMS
Kansas Will Enter Eleven Mer In Des Moines Relay Carnival.
Kansas hopes will probably look better in this meet as some of the men who were unable to run in the indoor events will be able to run in this meet. Coach Hamilton is also expecting to develop several runners from the squad of green material which has been showing up well in practice.
The events entered will be the half-mile, mile and two mile relays. Each will be a four man event and it is in the center some of the men in two events.
The Kansas track team will have eleven entries in the Missouri Valley Relay games at Des Moines, April 20.

FRENCH TO COACH THE WINFIELD HIGHS
Kansas Captain Will Teach History and Athletics in Southern Kansas
The Winfield Free Press of April 8th, says:
"Captain French of the Kansas University track team has been secured by the Board of Education for the athletic coach for the school next year. He is the best all around athlete at K. U this year and has the reputation of being a fine coach and there is no reason why this school should not turn out a winning team in every season of the athletic season as they have the material and with the aid of a coach there is no school that ought to be able to win 'from them.'
"He will be the instructor in history to fill the vacancy left by the retirement of Miss Eddy who has held that place for the past three years. If he had been with the school earlier in this season the basket-ball team would have gone to Lawrence and returned home with Miss Eddy, which is already a victorious looking one would be in a better fix. The school has been without a coach since his withdrawal of Hermas Facold."
