K.U.Sports---
Nearly 20 varsity basketball men have been reporting regularly for spring practice. Drills began Monday, are held three nights a week, and will continue for three weeks.
Cagers Busy With Spring Drills
The squad began spring practice with fundamental drills—dribbling, passing and goal shooting. In last night's workout, Gordon Gray, freshman coach in charge of the squad during the absence of Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen, put the men through a short defensive drill. Each practice session ends with a light scrimmage.
Spring drills are held in the evening, to allow those out for baseball, or other spring sports, to attend. Chief objective of the spring practice is to work the freshman squad in with the varsity and make plans for next year, Doctor Allen said.
Players out for practice include
T. P. Hunter, Vance Hall, John
Buescher, Virgil Wise, Don Blair,
Charles Black, Charles Walker,
Jack Ballard, Ray Evans, Bob Fitzpatrick, Don Ettinger, George Phillips, Jack Beck, Kenneth Dugan, Dick Kean, and Bob Abrams.
Tennis, Golf Squads Plau Washburn
The University golf team will meet Washburn college this afternoon for their first match of the season, while the tennis team accompanies them to play their second match.
The golf players making the trip include two lettermen, Bill McElhenny and Bob LaGree from last year's squad, and Bob Kirk and Emmet Park.
The Jayhawk netsters are facing stiff competition this afternoon, with only one letterman, Conrad Voelker, playing. Washburn defeated Kansas 5-1 last year, and have four out of five lettermen returning. Howard Engleman, who won the only match for Kansas in last year's contest, is ineligible this year.
Besides Voelker, Kansas players will include Francis Domingo, Bill Howard, and Bob Trump in singles, while Bob Bond and Eldridge King, Duane Smith and Simon Hershorn will make up the doubles team.
Schwegler, Ellsworth Attend Chicago Alumni Meeting
R. A. Schwegler, dean of the School of Education, and Fred Lifsworth, secretary of the alumni association, will attend an alumni meeting in Chicago May 2.
The meeting will be in the Embassy room of the Fred Harvey restaurant. Chancellor Malott and the K.U. band will be heard by transcription, while details and plans for the Seventy-fifth Anniversary will be discussed.
Women's Intramurals BY BETTY WARE
The Theta's thought the baseball game yesterday with the Kappa's was cinched. But they got fooled. In the last inning the tide turned and the Kappa's ran in 4 scores, making the final score 6 to 4. The Gamma Phi's defeated the Alpha Chi's 30-20 yesterday in their baseball fray and L.W.W. forfeited their game to the Independents.
The horseshoes have been clanking lately. The Kappa's defeated the Theta's two to one. Members of the Kappa team were Lura Jane Smith, Mary Beth Dodge, and Betsy Dodge. The Theta trio was Marjorie Lee Barben, Peggy Davis, and Margaret Stites.
The A.D. Pi's can swing a wicked horseshoe. At least they walked away with the score in their horseshoe tournament with the Chi Omega girls. The score was 3 to 0. The A. D. Pi team consisted of Helen Anderson, Annie Jane Newland, and Marian Milhoan. Those who tossed for Chi Omega were Jean Boswell, Jane Merrill and Joan Taylor.
If you have a game to play off in golf, tennis, horseshoes, do it soon. Miss Ruth Hoover, assistant professor of physical education, urges that these games be played while the weather is good.
K-Club Presents Beef Chorus
A three-ring show, 20 minutes of laughs and thrills, and all for three cents was planned at the K-Club meeting last night. The show, a feature of Dandelion's Day, will include a wrestling exhibition, a tumbling exhibition, a beef chorus made up of some of the huskier members of the club.
Initiation of approximately 30 new members into the K-Club will be held next Wednesday morning, Quido Massare, president of the organization, said today. Since the club held no initiation last year, this year's induction will include members of both year's athletic teams.
Laws Conduct Mock Trials
Law students continued with their series of mock trials yesterday afternoon when Sam Freeman, second year law student, sued the Rock Island Railroad company for $3.550.25 for damages, and humiliation he allegedly suffered when he entered a train that did not stop at his station. He had to walk five miles to his home, arriving at 2:30 a.m.
After carefully weighing the evidence, a jury of first year law students awarded Freeman $1.25, $1 in damages suffered and 25 cents, the price of his ticket.
Attorneys for the plaintiff were Harry Wiles, Moe Ettenson and Bill Kandt, third year laws.
Attorneys for the defense were Gene Ricketts, Frank Shinkle and Phil Buzick, also third year laws.
P. W. Viesselman, professor of law, presided at the trial.

Clips Car On Way To Diggin's
Phone 607
Eugene Alford, junior engineer, was evidently in a hurry to start digging dandelions this morning. Planning to park his car, a 1937 Studebaker sedan, in Lilac Lane, Alford took the sharp curve in front of Blake hall a little too fast and "clipped" a car parked there.
To make it worse, he also missed the curve leading into Lilac Lane, jumped the sidewalk, and hit the wall in front of Miller hall.
The only damage was a dent in the fender of Alford's car.
