Plans for the twilight baseball league are maturing rapidly under the direction of C, C, C, Carl, the Judge Landis of the league. The final meeting before the start of the season was scheduled for last night. A report on the business transacted was not yet available this morning.
The general plan of the league will be the same as that of last year. Either four or six teams will be entered. At the last report, only four teams had signed up: The Jayhawkers, the Crimson and Blues, the KU's, and Haskell. The first two teams named will be made up in university students, one in charge of Dr. Forest "Phog" Allen, other under the management Coach George "Puts" Clark. Two other teams may be on the league, the Kansas Telephone Company Employees, and the Six-Hundred Block Merchants.
SIXTH FIRST of games the season will be played the latter part of this week, either Thursday or Friday evening. There will be either two or three games scheduled for each of two evenings during every week for the remainder of the Summer Session. After the season gets under way the games will come regularly on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6:15 o'clock. The University field and the diamond at Haskell Institute will be used for the games. The list of official umpires will be announced later.
RECORDS BROKEN AT CHICAGO
Rogers of K. U.Scored In Big Meet
The last big track meet of the season was held Saturday in Chicago. Only two men from the University of Kansas were entered in this contest, Carey Rogers, captain-elect of next year's roquefort competing in the pole vault, and Paul O'Leary running the quarter mile. Captain Everett L. Bradley of this year's team was unable to go to the meet because of business engagements which demanded his attention.
This meet, which is held every year as the last event of the collegiate track season, attracts the best athletes from all over the country. The meet this year was unusually fast and a number of records of former years were smashed. Among those was the broad jump record. In this event, the record of Georgetown, who succeeded to be the greatest athlete since Jim Thurpe, exceeded the former record by almost a foot, jumping 24 feet and 3 inches.
Rogers of Kansas scored the only Jayhawk points in the meet, tying for third place in the pole vault. O'Leary, the other Kansas entry, run a good race but failed to place in the 440-yard run which went in unusually good time.
Many Bathers Enjoying Plunge in Potter's Lake
Each afternoon sees a continual procession of bathers crossing the campus to Potters Lake. They come from all directions and in all sorts of conveyances to enjoy a refreshing plunge. It is estimated that nearly one hundred and fifty persons use the lake each day.
Ordinarily a life guard is maintained at the lake during the swimming season, but his services have been dispensed with this summer. The old diving tower no longer stands at the north end of the lake, but in its place a diving board has recently been erected, and numerous rafts and logs help to make the swim enjoyable.
No Classes on the Fourth
No Classes
In answer to the many queries about classes on the Fourth of July, Dean Clinton, director of the summer session says that no classes will be held on the day of the Fourth. There has been some rumor that classes would be dismissed on the Monday before the Fourth also, but this is not true. One day only will be allowed as a holiday.
The University of Colorado has just recently created a department of journalism in the College of Arts and Sciences. A full time instructor will named to assist the head of the department. It is expected that eventually the equipment will include a complete printing plant. The increase in journalism facilities is largely due to efforts of Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic fraternity.
Citizens' Training Camp Still has Vacant Places
The War Department of the United States has extended the time limit for applications to the Citizens' Military Training Camp to be held at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, August 13 inclusive. It was announced that all applants will be in by May this time limit has now been extended to June 30.
The War Department points out that a number of men from here may be interested in the citizens' camp.

HUGE CHIMNEY BEING BUILT
Concrete Stack at Power Plant Going up Fast
The new chimney for the University power plant is mounting skyward at the rate of four and one-heft feet every day. After the work has progressed further, nine feet will be added to the height of the structure daily. The chimney will be a block of concrete 257 feet high standing on a block of concrete twenty-sight feet square and five feet thick.
Professor Hoole of the Department of Engineering, University of Wisconsin, was the original designer of the monolithic reinforced concrete chimney which has been in general use for power plants for the last ten years. The concrete is run into forms four and one-half feet high and is forced with rods twenty-five foot long. These rods are of various heights that one extends through at least four sections. The inside of the chimney will be ten feet in diameter at the top. At the bottom the walls are nineteen and five-sixteenth inches thick, tunnelling to a thickness of five inches. The Weber Construction Company is exclusive builders of chimneys's power plant houses, have the work will be completed about August
The old brick chimney will be left standing until next winter when it will be razed. If it were not for the possibility of damage to buildings nearby, the chimney would be tipped over, or "felled," but the risk is thought to be too great, hence the slower and safer process of tearing away the bricks one at a time will be followed.
History shows that hazing has been practically unknown at the University of Kansas.

N. C. Establishes Precedent in Laboratory Courses
North Carolina, in carrying out its $50,000,000 highway program, has introduced a departure that promises to set a swift pace for other states to follow. To qualify its mer for the inspection of bituminous粉料, Stats Highway Commission has established a short course in bituminous laboratory and plant instruction. The course takes the men into the interior for a week to learn tests of materials and to attend lectures on this type of construction. Later the men go to the asphalt plant for instruction in plant inspection and then on the road to learn construction methods.
The men are secured largely from the different districts into which the
work of the State Highway Commission is divided. They will be located in the district they came from and the only need for any change will be in the demand for emergency inspection from another part of the state.
