"I like the University and Lawrence fine," Mr. Clarke said. "I will only be able to stay here until Saturday night, but I will be glad to return any other year and help with the baseball team."
"It requires nine men to work with the team, and I intend to work with each one," said Mr. Clarke. "Each position is just as important as any other, and we will spend an equal amount of time with all of the departments."
If the weather continues to be bad, so that there cannot be any outside work, Mr. Clarke will spend the time en lecture, and questions which the various members of the team have to ask. If there is no rain the team will practice today, but there will probably be no game until tomorrow afternoon.

Concordia, April 5—Bloodhounds today took the trail of an axe murderer friend who late night last attached the family of L. J. Tremblay, well-to-do farmer living twenty miles east of here near Clide, Kansas.
The murderer fired both the house and barn after he wrought human destruction.
Theodore Tremblay, 18 years old,
was slashed to death, and Tremblay
and three smaller sons are expected
to recover.
Three of the Tremblay children were dragged unconscious from the burning home by neighbors. Tremblay was found with his skull crushed in, lying unconscious on the doorstep. Mrs. Tremblay died several years ago and lived alone with his siblings. The other sons are Francis, 12, Alfonzo, 10, and Albert, 14. Neighbors could recall no enemies of Tremblay.

OIL PAINTING IS EXHIBITED
Work of Professor Hekking Received Gold Medal
Prof. W M. Hekking's latest oil painting, "The Old Homestead," is on exhibition in Room 301 East Ad. It is a snow scene showing a rather commonplace frame house with several outbuildings and trees.
It is a simple subject but handled in an interesting manner. The artist has brought out the colors of sky and sun reflected from the snow and has filled the scene with the atmosphere of a crisp winter day. The play of light on snow creates pleasing, lending charm and suggesting comfort and happiness within.
Though the picture is a large one he was painted at one sitting, one day last winter in Professor Hekeling's back yard. It received a gold medal at the Kansas-Missouri art exhibition in Kansas City in January.

Hunter recently arrived here on his return trip from Japan, where he has been coaching baseball at a Japanese university. Hunter says that he intends to recommend to Manager Rickey of the Cardinals that he sign him on the team of Wasauda university, the largest university in Japan.
San Francisco, April 5 (United Press)- Herc Hunter, St. Louis Cardinal outfielder, hopes that major league fans will next season be able to catch the ball and shouting wildly for "Teddy" Kubota, Japanese shortstop.
"He is one of the nastiest shortstop I have ever seen," said Hunter, "and swings a mean stick at the plate. I believe he would be a sensation in either of the big American leagues." Hunter is planning to ask permission of Baseball Commissioner Landry Zorn to host star following the close of the season to go to Japan to play the university teams there. Hunter says that he has been guaranteed $50,000 and expenses for bringing such a team to the Orient. There is only one condition to the offer—the team must include Babe Ruth and George Kelley, home of the 1923 NL champion, who wild about Ruth and Kelley.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1922.
The importation of Hunter's proposed team has the backing of the Osaka Mainichi Shimbun, the greatest nwaper in Japan. Hunters says the United Press reports of Ruth's homets, which are flashed to the Japanese television network, watched as closely by the Japanese fans as by the American ones.
According to Hunter's schedule, twelve games have already been arranged in Japan, and in manila. His layup team is Art Neff, Art Hoff, Harry Hallman, Frank Fritch, Frank Schneider, Earl Smith and Ross Young for his team. He hopes to land Babe Ruth. In the past, hall teams of the University of California, University of Chicago and Stanford University have played on exhibition games and have done much to popularize the game.

I trust that all students will learn and cooperate in keeping the campus clean tomorrow."

THEY DANCE CONSIDERABLE
For Five Whole Days the Brazilians "Cut Loose"
de jano de Janeiro (By Mail to the United Press) - Imagine a mixture of the old New Orleans Mardi Gras. Armistice night, the pre-war county fair in Winfield, Kansas; a section of the annual policeman's ball of Kansas City, and a wild night at Coney Island, and you have some chance to meet the New Orleans criminal, which closed last night, or rather sometime after daylight today.
To a Brazilian Carnival is the "buil and end all" of each year. For 50 days the people may be content to a lend a sober and somewhat melanistic look. The other five days the carnival days—they must up or all they have missed.
Anybody who can answer how it is possible for a Brazilian to dance the Maxie and the Samba for five days and nights without other nourishment than beer and sandwiches? I don't know. But just enough to tell what makes the howling dervish howl.
"Oh Minsa Cheese!" I don't know why you are) or something or other about a dancing parrot.
Newspapers had it figured out that the carnival this year would lack something of its former punch because of the year-long commercial crisis. They were wrong. Every grup, rancho, and bairna was repre- sented as if they were real people and costumes more weird than ever and clever new songs such as:
Hundreds of thousands packed the
* down town streets, keeping up a
* continuous din. Carburets were crowded
* to capacity despite an admittance
* charce of ten milieres, which to a Bra-
bilian is equivalent to two dollars and
* a half. The manager of the High Life,
a popular dancing club, says he sold
* 5,000 admittances and 3,500 quarts of
* champagne.

EXAMINATION CHANGE IS MADE BY SENATE
Student Credit Hour Costs Are To be Revised, Says Dean Kelly
The University Senate Tuesday afternoon revised the spring examination schedule, vacating Saturday afternoon, May 27, to give the students a chance to examine Missouri Valley Track meet here, and advancing the examination for 8:30 classes to Saturday morning. Old classes reported to affect only 20 or 25 students, are to be examined determined by the instructors concerned.
F. J. Kelly, dean of administration, announced that student credit hour costs revised on the basis of a somewhat more detailed plan of allocations are to be sent to the various departments, and in this connection he spoke of the work being done in attempting to measure teaching costs.
"We have adopted the student credit hour as the unit of measure, but we are not at all sure, as yet, just what our measurements may signify. In our efforts to measure teaching attainment, we are much in the position of public school educators of a decade ago, when the Courts arithmetic standardized tests included knowledge they had a unit of measure, but it has taken much study to interpret the figures and revise teaching methods accordingly.
"We hope that out of this measurement of University training will come results that will reduce by four-fifths the number of failures. Among the sixty students now on probation for university teaching, the University standard are many really high grade young men and women. They are having to leave the University not because they are mentally immature, but because we haven't learned the way to save this university from going to perfect education and we can't get there without mesurements."
