Spring Workouts In Football Start
Spring football practice for Jayhawker gridders will get underway officially at 4:00 o'clock Monday afternoon, Vic Hurt, assistant varsity coach, announced today.
Spring practice is limited to six weeks by a Big Six ruling and this will find the last practice being held the day before the Kansas Relays. University-Wide Call for Players
Players may start checking out suits at 3:00 p.m. and limbring-up exercises will be conducted until the entire squad is suited up for workouts an hour later.
Forty-two boys who have played football, either freshman or varsity ball, will be eligible for practice but Hurt is not limiting the squad to this number.
Instead, Coaches Gwinn Henry and Hurt are anxious that every student in the University who would like to check out a football suit do so Monday. Everyone is welcome and due to the emphasis which the government has been placing on physical education recently, the coaching staff is expecting an increased number of candidates for the team.
After the first week of conditioning exercises, scrimage will be held three times a week. As an added attraction, a regulation game will be played each week, probably on Friday and Saturday, with all members checking out suits getting to play. All students are welcome to attend any practice or game without any charge.
Hall and Ulrich To Coach
The games will be played in the stadium on dry days and if the turf is muddy the games will be staged on the practice fields. To conclude the spring practice, a final intrasquad game will be held in the stadium under Big Six game conditions.
Teptative arrangements have been made to have Ed Hall and Hub Ulrich assist with the coaching during spring practice. Both of these appointments are subject to the approval of the finance committee. Hall will be able to aid the coaching staff only for two and one-half weeks since he is subject to call March 25 under Gene Tunney's Navy Physical Education program.
With the addition of these two recent Jayhawker grid stars the
coaching staff consists of Head Coach Gwinn Henry, Assistant Coach Vic Hurt, Freshman Coach Bill Replogle, and assistants Ed Hall and Hub Ulrich.
There will be sufficient equipment at the stadium for everyone to obtain a complete uniform and the five-man coaching staff will give personal instruction to all players reporting.
Depleted Squad Will Give Chances "No doubt there are many students in school," Hurt said, "who are capable of making the team but who never thought they could. We want all of these to come out because next year will give a perfect

opportunity for everyone to play since many of the present squadmen may be called to service or will enlist before next fall."
"The government has been emphasizing physical education in its campaign to prepare men for combat service but has laid particular stress upon competitive sports, Hurt said. "Calisthenics are good," Hurt remarked, "but competitive sports not only build muscles but also develop leadership, quick - thinking, and spirit which are all extremely im-

portant in actual combat."
Men in the armed forces of the country at the present time who have participated in competitive athletics are getting definite advantages from their superior officers, Hurt said, because the latter realize their capabilities under fire.
"Football next fall should be interesting," Hurt commented, "because it will be impossible to select a team this spring and be sure that the same line-up will report next fall. Quick adjustments will be necessary on both the players' and the coaches' part. Since Young America is in a fighting mood due to the present conditions I fully expect that football next fall will be just a little tougher and probably a little rougher."
Class "C" Play-offs Start Tonight at 10
Intramural playoff activities will be launched tonight with the class "C" team semi-finals scheduled for play.
Clashing on one court at 10 o'clock will be the Division VI champions, Phi Kappa Psi, and the Beta Theta Pi "C" squad. The Phi Psi's were undefeated this year in regular season competition, while the Beta's suf $ ^{o}$ the Marine Corps made
In the other contest, scheduled for play at the same time, the Phi Delta Theta and Phi Gamma Delta "C" teams will take the floor. The Phi Gam's suffered their only loss of the year earlier in the season to the Phi Delt's, who will be out to make it two straight.
Rans Bennett and John Fletcher tied for scoring honors with ten points each, and Harlan Altman, scrappy guard, tuned in one of the finest demonstrations of ball handling of the year. However, it was Fred Eberhardt, the Beta's track ace, who was the hero of the game in the eyes of the crowd.
Defending champions in "C" competition the Phi Delta Theta men who last year nosed out the Beta's for the title. Tonight's two winners will meet Saturday morning at 11 o'clock to decide this year's title-holder.

The class "A" playoffs will begin Monday night, Dr. E. R. Elbel, director of intramural sports, announced today. The intramurals board will meet tonight to make out brackets and pairings for the competition, he said.
Beta Theta Pi closed the regular divisional competition last night with a 36 to 26 win over Delta Upsilon to cinch a playoff berth. After meeting unexpected opposition in the first half, the favored Beta's clicked in the second period to pile up a safe margin.
the Marine Corps, made his only appearance of the year in an "A" team uniform. With a quartette on the sidelines moaning the marching song of the Marines, Eberhardt proceeded to run up two fouls in short order. His performance reached a climax, however, when he succeeded in hitting the rim of the basket on a free throw attempt. Robinson gym echoed with the cheers of his fraternity brothers.
Jim Seest led the stubborn first half D. U. stand with eight points.
Newman I displayed its poorest form this year as it defeated Delta Tau Delta in a slow contest 21 to 12. Neither team could connect with the basket with any consistency, as indicated by the 6 to 3 score at halftime. Scoring honors for the game went to Junius Penny with six points. Prior to the game the former Lawrence high star held a 12.3 points per game average.
John Moore Coop could not hold a narrow first half lead, and fell before the Union Fountaineers 29 to 24. The losers were on top 10 to 9 going into the second half.
Jim Gillispie, high-scoring Fountaineer forward, racked up 17 points to lead the scoring for the game. He received able assistance from little Jack Bea. Ted Young led the Coop scorers with 11 points.
Sigma Nu scored its second victory of the year downing the luckless Kappa Eta Kappa outfit 29 to 10 in a rough game. The winners led 17 to 6 at halftime. Beomer Collins, Sigma Nu forward, was high point man for the game with five field goals.
