TWENTY-FIVE MEN
OUT FOR BASEBALL
"Skull" Practice Will Be Held Twice a Week in Gymnasium
BOYD RETURNS TO SCHOOL
Pitchers and Catchers Will Workout in Gymnasium Next Week
About twenty-five varsity baseball candidates responded to Coach 'Potsy' Clark's early season call for diamond performers. A list of the men who are intending to try out for the team was taken, and a schedule for indoor practice will be arranged as soon as possible. The pitchers and catchers will play gymnasium immediately. The other aspirants will condition themselves with a little basketball until the gry can be secured for infield practices.
"Potty" announced that "skull practices" will be held on Monday and Wednesday night at 4:30 o'clock every week until the real workouts start. Coach Clask intimated that prospects were bright for another valley championship this year with several letter men from last year's team, and a "champion feeling" to build this year's aggregation around.
The principal conflict in Coach Clark's 1922 squad should be for positions in the outfield. "Lefty" Farrell, who hold down the sun garden for last year's championship team, is the only returned outfielder, leaving two places to be filled by new men. The entire infield that worked last year will be out again this season, and two of the pitching staff are returned.
Joe Boyd, c. 22, has returned to take his place as second baseman on the 1922 squad. He is one of the three Kansas men who made the All-Valley team last year. Boyd is a fast second sacker and a bird bitter film player. After the first three weeks of last season, but he will be eligible.

Advised Not to Worry About Artificial Gold
Washington, Feb. 2. - II is toolful for the world to worry over artificial gold or its effect upon the economic situation.
This is the balm of the United States Geological Survey to soothe the universal disturbance in the minds of economists aroused by the recent announcement that a new method $ \alpha $ alchemy had been discovered.
The feat cannot be termed impossible, but it is too costly the survey states. The process would be far more expensive than the natural method. The discovery by modern chemistry, the survey says, that many of the supposed elemental substances are in fact compounds, has revived the hope of alchemy, which has drawn attention into its lurking grasp for centuries.
There is no danger, however, acording to the government scientists that artificial gold if it can be made from mineralogy or a curiosity of the chemical laboratory.

"ALL FOR ONE, ONE FOR ALL"
In this production "Doug" has achieved the ambition of his life—and registers with it, what is by all odds the great, outstanding success of his career. He is a remarkable, clear-cut portrayal of the noble Magpie of the medieval hero of Dumas' amazing novel Mediévale film. This tremendous film is the happy culmination of a decade of years on Fairbanks' part to endeavor to be the most striking and heroic figure in the
