THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Aggie Quintet Is Impeded By Lack Of Old Material Squad is Cut to Nineeteen in Effort to Round Out The Available Material Manhattan, Kan., Jan. 18. —The Kansas Aggies are looking to a reasonably successful basketball season this year. Although the team is composed of several inexperienced men, most should be going at top speed. Before vacation the squad was cut to tenneen men, eleven of these men receiving orders to report on January 28. Since that time Coach Cartlisle worked hard to round the team into condition to work off the rough spots. Four Letter Men Return Only four letter men returned this year, but some fine material from last year's freshman team solved the problem. This has been worrying the problem. Captain Foval, a two-letter man, is the nucleus around which this year's team is being built. He is holding down the right forward berth and proving himself a very capable leader of the Aggie quintet. Webber, playing his second year at left guard, has already shown great improvement over his play on the ball and is a leader in the Agile defense. Competition Keen The other three positions on the team are at the present time hiked down by new men, the competitor for these positions being very keen Grotheuson and Brown at forward Rumold at center, and Doolan at guard seem to have the edge on the other contestants. Although the Agleys have lost four conference games, they are not discouraged. The showing made by the squad in the Nebraska game assure the Agley roots that they workave their share of games in thewon" column before the seasonof 1923 passes into history. Select Tennis Champions Committee Choses Players For Outstanding Characteristics New York, Jan. 19 (United Press) -Picking the best ten tennis players in America last year wasn't the job that it was in 1921. Performances of the leading stars were so outstanding that they adjusted themselves almost automatically. Tilden, Johnsons and leaders among the men players were foregone conclusions. Their records made mistakes impossible. Mrs. Mollia Mallory, of course, could be placed nowhere at but the top among the women players. She may not be the greatest player in the world, but she was the best in America. Ranking the best ten tennis players, or the ten best performers in any branch of sport, is strictly a matter of opinion, and there will always be a difference in opinion. No ranking ever will be generally accepted as perfect, but the work of the tennis committee last year was as near as humanly possible to perfection. In placing Miss Leslie Bancroft, it second position, the committee bumped up against criticism from the friends of Helen Mills, the California girl who played so well against Mrs. Mallory. Dates in Green House Is Fad at Aggie College Manhattan, Jan. 18.—The "tropical garden" date is growing most popular among youths and the fair damsels at the Argie College here, for the college authorities are planning on installing tete-a-tete booths for the convenience of the romantic experience or perhaps lock up the green house. For years faculty members have endeavored to break up chapel dates and have gone so far as to lock buildings during the chapel hour, but no one thought it would be necessary to lock the college green house, where among the enchanting charms of tropical palms, ferns, and banana plants, the love-lorn stroll unmolested.

Cornhuskers Expect Eighteen Letter Men On 1923 Track Team Fine Material in Valley School Promise to Furnish Nebraska Good Fight Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 19—Nobreaks' last year's victorious season in traint has not put over confidence into the Cornhushin cinder crow, and also he has never been a sport which despite the efforts of energetic sport writers, cannot be broken. There will be eighteen letter mern on the 1923 squad, the belief of Coach Schulte, according to a presessee canvass. The entire coaching staff is very well satisfied with the material that has been showing up for training, "Ed" Smith, captain of last year's track team, holder of the record for most dash at 8-10 in 10-sharing the record of 8-10 with J. V. Scholz of Missouri in the 100-yard dash), is lost to the team this year. However confident the Cornhuskers are in their coaching staff, the outlook, it is said, is pretty gloomy as far as expecting as victorious a career that has enjoyed last year. Other Valley schools are reporting sensational material and unless the bountiful blessing of "material" Nebraska has turned out to be something different, Nebraska will little hopes of vetaining her laborals. But the Huskers are not discouraged. Already they have begun to issue invitations for a big meet that will include all the leading athletes of the country. So far the Husker ash-treading crew has enlisted in meets only at K. U. and the K. C. A. C. invitation meet. Football Coaches Meet Enumerate Ways to Encourage Good Sportsmanship New York, Jan. 19—Football coach, in session at Hotel Astor, New York City; last month, enumer- eried sportsman, good sportman- hip"; can be expressed: "By providing comforts and convenience to the visiting team and its friends; by ceasing cheering while signals are being called by applauding; by allowing persons of personal pluck and acts of fine sportsmanship on the part of opponents; by secuing to legitimate study of regularly played games, entailing refusal to suit on opponent's practice, scout his signals or secure information about the style of a play of a team to be met later." Sportsmanship may be furthered by: "encouraging to settle questions of eligibility confidently rather than by public discussion; by active encouragement of cardinal relations with the student at rival institutions; and by going out of the way to congratulate the coach and captain of the winning team." Love is One Thing and Chewing Tobacco Another Dallas, Texas., Jan. 18, (U. P.)—Love is one thing and tobacco is another. That was the belief of a young woman whose romance was blasted and faith in man was destroyed by a plug of tobacco. A young man accompanied an exquisitely dressed young lady entered U. R. Oliver's office, where many censes are issued on armored, mounted, or marriage license." "A tollor seventy-five," said Oliver after liting out the blank. When the young man drew his pocketsheet from his pocket, he also produced half a plug of tobacco, he bought, and sweetheart, you told me you didn't chew." Silence followed. The prospective bride departed. With a disquieted gesture the man followed. He was then chained, according to Oliver. Mr. Knowlton Parker of Kansas City, Kansas, is visiting at the Pi Kappa Alpha house.

The fifteen year old freshman boy at New York University says that as soon as he gets his preliminary degree of Bachelor of Arts, he wants to tackle something really worth while, like law. Is it barely possible that some of our friends on the Green Hall steps took up the pursuit of Life, Law and the Freedom of the Bar because t.ey were boy wonders who wanted to do something "really worth while?" House Presidents' Council will hold its next meeting Wednesday, January 31. A former K.
