The following was taken from the Kansas News Letter which was sent out by the K. U. News Bureau. This news letter is sent to 16,000 Kansas high school seniors every year and serves as a record of the meeting weing their interest in the University.
Ten tests of athletic ability, selected for the purpose of demonstrating strength, endurance, shortness and coordination. Three of these are courses at University of Kansas gymnasium classes by E. R. Elibel, and have been used in connection with gymnasium training.
The tests are intended also to make students aware of the observed behavior by testing劲干 gidgets and they offer means of measuring the all-round physical development of the student. Computer-assisted tests will different semesters will show progress in building up strength or endurance
In the semester just closed, gym class men scored from as high as 745 out of a possible 1000 points, down to 86 out of 1000 points or more. In the main, Mr. Elbe said, the cards showed a fairly even distribution of points, but there were instances of students who made high scores on the tests, and fell on others.
The test gives, for example, 10 points if the student, lying on the floor, can lift his legs vertically 10 times; 20 points for 20 lifts, up to 100 points for 85 times. The 20-ward dawn down in 32 A.M., the 40-ward dawn and in 28 seconds, 100 points.
Skill is evidenced by hitting a target with a baseball at 60 feet 6 inches, the distance from the pitcher to the batter in a regulation game.
The student ranking highest in the
science semester was John M. Rumsey of
Kamloops and David H. Koehler and
Wolfe of Moose was second with

FASHION SKITS
By KANSAN FASHION EDITOR
Cape sleeves are popular in new spring prints
All tailoring whether in suits or coats this spring has the grit n t i c touch the austerist the austere one
Short set-in sleeves are features of this street dress
A material for which
a great success seems
assured is a mixed basket
weave. Colors in beige,
gray, green, tobacco
and navy and black with
flecks of white or a
lighter shade than the
goods. Blue green and
brown are popular shades.
Sleeve fullness is marked below the elbow
Spring Woolens
Rivaling last season's popularity, the two-piece suit will again be in evidence. The tweeds have given in to the influence of more womanish weave.
The latest is the novelty woolens or rough, nubby, even wavy surface, lively and expressive coats and the two piece suit.
Smart novelty woolen suits for spring are being shown in downtown stores.
Printed Gowns
Fashion opening indicates a return to practical simplicity. The lines are not sharply defined but fitting reveals natural curves on skirts from eight to twelve inches of the floor.
Annual reaction can be definitely counted upon to again don prints. They never fail to turn out a newwelling a variety of i t e m p o n g s, a new and bright and have an irreversible appeal in full days.
Printed frocks in light colors with a dark accent are inspiring. Colors are of the usual variety with many striking color combinations.
Designs are in prints, checks, stripes and plains with checks and stripes winning over plains.
