Franklin C. Cappon
Head Football Coach.
"Although nearly ninety men have checked out suits for spring football practice, only about thirty are turning out for practice," said Franklin C. Cappon, head football coach, this morning. Occh Capcon declared that unless more men turn out with regalia, little can be accomplished this spring.
"It has been absolutely impossible for us to work on any definite program," he said. "If we plan to work with the ends, it is quite likely that there will not be more than two or three out, although there are about thirteen men who have come out for the meeting." But those few, the next day we must reptile for those who were not out. At present we are merely marking time."
Average Is Thirty Men
The average squad for the last five days has numbered but thirty men, Wednesday there were 29; Thursday, 30; Friday, 31; Monday, 32; and Tues-
Coach Cappon said that there were about nineteen men who had been coming out regularly, while the rest were merely floaters, and that he made sure everyone knew the number of men out for the end positions, only about four candidates are out on an average," he said, "while among the tackles, with about twelve candidates eligible and signed up for the event, only a handful has been coming out each afternoon."
Can Find No Reason
Coach Cappon was unable to assign any definite reason for the failure of the men to report. "I don't know whether they are just lazy or whether they lack nerve," he said. "When one of them gets hurt a little, he misses practice for several days. We can't do effective work on this basis."
Cappon also pointed out the unfairness to the men who have been coming out regularly, as they have to go over and over the same thing for the benefit of those who missed it through absence. He declared that at the present rate it would be impossible to finish the work planned for the spring. At practice yesterday Cappron required them to come out or who expected to be late for practice through necessity, inform him before practice.
Chart Shows Absences
Coach Cappon has been keeping a chart on which is recorded from day to day the progress of the men in blocking and tackling. The squad has not shown up very well at this end Burton is the only man with a creditable record, "Zeke" has made ten coaches and nine tacklers. The coach points out that this showing indicates that more work must be put into spring drill.
A number of men who were reserves last fall are coming to the front this spring. Schofflin, a tackle, has shown that he can hold down that position behind Fraser and Leavingood are other former reserves who show promise.
The squand will be kept at blocking and tackling drill until more improvement is shown on fundamentals. The coach wants more men to check the techniques used in the session that this will be done with the conclusion of mid-seminar exams.
Northeast High School of Kansas City was eliminated in the first round by Dover, Ohio. The Missouri team was one of the favorites in the tournament and their showing was disappointing to Kansas City followers.
Winfield meets Winnie, Ga., in the second round which began today. Vienna won their first game by an overwhelming score a Utah team. The game should be close with Winfield the probable winners.
Dick Hanley, C. W, Bachman and C. W, Corsant will conduct their regi-
ular summer coaching course at the College of Agriculture College from June 3 to 17.
Intramural Drawings Will Be Posted Monday
Drawings in the intramural tennis tournament and in the intramural horseshoe tournament will be posted on the bulletin board in Robinson gymnasium Monday morning, April 4, according to John Sabe, assistant coach. Two weeks will be scheduled in these tournaments, matched in these tournaments, since some of the contests will be out of town on the pic club tour, Mr. Saibo said.

The good playing on the part of the freshman guards prevented the juniors from making a large score. Florence Kisecker, c29, made 20 points for the freshman team and Ruth Martin, c28, made 18 points for her junior team, in spite of her sprained ankle which she received in a practice game.

Want ads in the Daily Kansan bring results.
All intramural managers have been requested to meet in Robinson gymnasium, room 208. Friday evening at the basketball and volleyball to the list of intramural sports is to be discussed under assistant Coach Sabo. The managers who will be unable to attend are asked to send representatives to the meeting.
Volleyball and Baseball to Be Discussed Together
Valley hall is another sport which has been increasing in interest and the addition of this to the intramural sports would give many students the chance to participate who are not in any games now being abused.
Read--Kanzan Want Ads!
There has been considerable debate concerning the proposition and many students have asked the officials to add the two sports to the list. Due to the fact that more students are participating in intramural sports than ever before the demand for more activities has increased tremendously. Softball has been one of the principal intramural sports for the past few years, but it will likely let more men participate. Several baseball diamonds are available to the athletes, making it possible for the teams to be run off quickly.
After three successful seasons Gear quit the baseball game and went to the Kane Millage Company of Topperc an manager of the Life-O-Wheat division. When the Topperc club organized in 1924 Gear again became interested and was made president of the Wheat company in 1929 he became district agent of the World Food Fund. We now divide his time between his two jobs and the pulving business.
Former Kansas Athlete Still in Field of Baseball
Basketball has never lost its attraction for at least one of K. U.'s past stars. Hale D. Gear, LLB S’89, is poking in to the game and he expects to return for some time. Given a chance in school from Holton and placed by the all-starvictors from his team, he played with the Kansas City Blues for two years and then with the Washington 6th until 1992 when he was made president of the Kansas City Blues.
