Four Teams Shaping For Baseball Games Prospects Improving for Formation of Varsity Team
Approximately 40 men reported yesterday afternoon for the first regular practice of the baseball season. Practices will be held daily from now on, weather permitting, from 3 to 5:30 p.m., the intramural field at the Hill.
Among the outstanding candidates who have reported for practice are the following: Milo Clauson, catcher or infiel; Charles Pugh, outfield; Francis Kappelman, catcher or infield; Gene Hibbs, outfield; Ray Elingin, infiel; Ron Roberts, infield; Clarence Kelley, infield; Roy Klass, infield or outfield; Vance Cauble, pitcher; Preston Cole, outfield; Herb Sadipsay, outfield; Walter Baxter, infield; Willard Trombold, catcher.
If the present interest continues it is entirely likely that a varsity team will be organized. For this reason anyone involved should be aware of the advantage of the practice periods.
Actual competition among the four teams is expected to start Monday of next week. Team managers are urged to have their squads in playing condition by that time. Anyone interested in playing need only report for practice to be placed on one of the four teams.
Most of the time yesterday was devoted to batting practice and to workouts by the outfield candidates. Work will continue along this line for the rest of the week, infield practice being limited due to the rough condition of the playing field.

FORMER UNIVERSITY STUDENT
WRITES MAGAZINE ARTICLE
Henrietta Allen Holmes, a student at the University in 1921 and 1922 and the daughter of ex-senator Henry J. Allen of Witcha, has written an article called "The Spell of Romania" which occupies the leading position in the National Geographic Magazine for April. The article is the story of an American woman's wanderings among colorful people and long-hidden shrines.
Mrs. Holmes is the wife of Julius
olmes, a former resident of Lawrence
Cunningham and Hargiss Speak
Coach W. H. Hargiss and Glenn Cunningham were guest speakers at a Junior Chamber of Commerce luncheon in Topeka today. The Kansans have been invited to make similar talks at a meeting of the Topeka Kiwanis club in the Hotel Kansan on April 16. Civic club members and sport enthusiasts will be invited to that meeting.
The annual search for the first flower faces is the latest pursuit of the Hill's nature lovers. A contest, sponsored by the Botany club, adds interest to the search. All students and professors are eligible contestants.
Spring Flower
Search Begun by Members
Of Botany Club
The object of the contest is to obtain records of the first wild and cultivated plants seen in Lawrence and vicinity this spring. A record of the first flower of each specie is kept on the bulletin board of the Botany department. Only the earliest record of each plant counts, however, and the hazard that the spelling of the common name and scientific name of the flower must be correct is also added. Thus such prolonged scientific terms as Taraxacum officinale (dandelion), and Spiraea thunberg (spiraea) take on significant meanings for the botanist. Taraxacum officinale was first discovered this year March 5, at Fourteenth and Louisiana, and Spiraea thunberg on March 20, at Corbin hall.
Contestants are divided between two sides, and the winning side will be compensated by the losing side in some manner yet to be determined. A book, useful in identifying plants, will be provided to each person who records the most flowers.
Perhaps the underlying result of the contest will be a love of science gained through the enjoyment of studying the most brilliant part of the plant—flower faces.
Rankin To Address Pharmacists Members of the Pharmaceutical society will be addressed tomorrow morning at their weekly meeting by Mr. V. A. Rankin of Kansas City, Mo, sales manager of the McKesson-Faxon Drug company. He is expected to discuss the policies of the company he represents.

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT SEEKS
DATA ON STUDENT READING
The University department of English has been asked to aid the committee of college reading of the National Council of English Teachers in determining what books should be recommended to students and instructors, and what books students should choose themselves.
A general reading list is to be supplied students, and reports from the higher ranking upper classmen concerning the books they have read since entering college will be sought in the general survey.

Only the Center Leaves...they are the Mildest Leaves
Luckies are All-Ways kind to your throat
WHEREVER the finest tobacco grow—in our own Southland, in Turkey, in Greece—all over the world, we gather the very Cream of the tobacco Crops for Lucky Strike. And that means only the center leaves. Not the top leaves—because those are under-developed—not ripe. Not the bottom leaves—because those are inferior in quality—they grow close to the ground, are coarse, dirt-covered, sandy.
The center leaves are the mildest leaves—they taste better and farmers are paid higher prices for them. These center leaves are the only ones used in making Luckies. Then "It's toasted"—for throat protection. And every Lucky is fully packed with these choice tobacco—made round and firm, free from loose ends—that's why Luckies do not dry out. Naturally, Luckies are all-ways kind to your throat.
"It's toasted"
✔ Luckies are *all-ways* kind to your throat
Only the Center Leaves-these are the Mildest Leaves
**NOT** the top leaves — they're under-developed
— they are harsh!
They taste better
NOT the bottom leaves - they're inferior in
a quality - coarse and sandy!
