35 Military Grads Are Fingerprinted
Thirty-five men who will graduate from the R.O.T.C. as second tenants in June were finger-vited and measured for army uniforms yesterday.
The finger printing is required by the government before accepting the reserve officers. Deputy Sheriff Wayne Owens made the prints.
The measurements were being made for the new reserve officers uniforms which are a gift to the graduates from the University and the R.O.T.C.
Kansas-Wildcats—
(Continued from page four) place behind Hackney and Vanderbilt in the shot. This is the most serious problem for Coach Hargiss, because nine points can be gained from each of these two events.
Dick Edwards and Don Thompson have hardly had a chance to show their worth this season in the four-
relay. The 800-yard run and mile should prove more valuable in this point-getting array Saturday, which races will be run by the above mentioned men.
Harris Still Out
Ray Harris, the miler who tosses dirt in his opponents faces in the mile run, must remain content with sharpening his already sharply whetted clefs for at least one more week. "No well ankle, no running Ray," says his sympathetic coach.

Jack Dempsey made a statement to the press in Oklahoma City that "Mike Jacobs is ruining the fight
game." Dempsey pointed out the fact that if Jacobs promoted any more fights like the last Louis-Paychek love affair, Madison Square Garden might just as well forget that there is such a thing as good fighters in the United States. . . In a translation of Dempsey's attitude, New York is just darn tired of one and two round world's championship fights.
THEY'RE OFF AGAIN. . . . On May 30, the 1940 Indianapolis Motor Speedway classic will get under way with at least 47 cars entered. Bidding for the 500-mile title will be eight foreign built cars. Of the forty-seven cars entered, only 33 can actually start in the race on May 30. Back again this year are champions Wilbur Shaw, Indianapolis, and Kelly Petillo, Los Angeles. Rex Mays, of Glendale, Col., will be one of the favorites in the long grind, as he will drive the car of Louis Meyer, who has finally retired from the racing game.
The Kansas State Wildcats diamond team knocked another surprise in the Big Six diamond standings when they defeated the favorite Iowa State Cyclones again yesterday, 6 to 2, in Manhattan.
Meanwhile, the Kansas City Blues open their home season this afternoon, when they meet the Columbus Redbirds. Ernie Bonham and Tom Sunkel will probably be the starting slabsters for K.C. and Columbus respectively. . . . . . Congratulations to Vernon Hampton, of the Kansas City Times, for one of the best sports pencil sketches that this corner has ever seen.
Golfers Win---on the Lawrence Country Club course, and the tennis team on the courts southwest of the stadium.

Golfers are playing their matches
Wildcat netmen blanked Emporia State Saturday afternoon, but have lost matches to Washburn. K-State golfers defeated Nebraska in a Big Six meet and have scored victories over the Washburn linkmen.
Ritchie to Lead Jayhawkers
Dean Ritchie will again play the number 1 position for the linkmen and lead off against the K-Staters this afternoon. Ritchie has led the Big Six defending champions in every meet but the first, and has yet to lose his first match.
The return golf and tennis matches scheduled with Washburn for April 17, and postponed because of rain, will be played here May 8, said golf coach William H. Shannon this morning.
Bill McElhenny played an improved game against Washburn yesterday, and shot an 82 on a cold wind afternoon. Bob LaGree will replace Gray in the lineup as number 4 man. In the two matches LaGree played, he came through with scores in the low 80's. Rod Wakeland will play in the number 2 spot for Kansas.
