THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SCHLADEMAN CHOOSES CROSS COUNTRY TEAM First Meet Will be Run With Ames Before Game Saturday SIX MEN ARE PICKED Schedule For the Year An nounced; May Attend Big Ten Meet In Ames the cross-country team meets the class of the Valley and the Big Ten in the long distances. The Iowa team has held the Missouri Valley and Big Ten championships for the past three years, and won the National championship three years ago. Coach Schidamann made no预告es as to the outcome of Saturday's game, but there should be several Kansas men well up in the line at the finish, and that the Jayhawk team would at least "learn a lot" at the meet. After a tryout Friday afternoon, Track Coach Chacchianmade his final choice of the cross-country men who will go to Ames for the meet with the valley champion aggregation, which will be run just before the Kansas-Ames football game on Saturday. Captain Wallace James, Ike Massey, Patterson , Wilson, Kellett, and Meng. The following tentative cross-country schedule has been arranged for this year: October 29; Kansas Aggiez at Lawrence. November 5; Nebraska or Oklahoma. noma. November 12; Missouri Valley meet, at Lincoln. November 19; Big Ten meet, at Urbana, Ill. November 24; Missouri, at Lawrence. Whether or not the Kansas队 will attend the Big Ten meet, at Urbana, on November 19, will depend upon the showing made at the Valley meet at Lincoln the week before. Arrangements will be made to make the Thanksgiving Day contest with the Tigers a feature meet. It is planned to have this race finish on Massachusetts street. "Gridiron Gossip" By Joe Turner "The crowd was as much to blame as the team," was Coach Clark's comment on Saturday's defeat. "Both were the best before the final whistle blew." The Cow College crew from Manhattan had an intow auel mess last Saturday, dropping a game to Creighton University by a 14 to 7 score. CreIGHTon is in Omaha, Neb., if you've never heard of it. Coach Madison Bell's Indians came home from Nebraska "talking to themselves," but they broke out左 right with a snappy practice that indicates that the Haskell eleven does not "sty whip" anyway. Couss Lindsay's Fresh are getting to be a blood-thirsty aggregation, if they're half as mean as they sound. One of the yearling linenen broke through the Varsity last night while "Potts" was doing the signal shoring for the regular in lineup at a great rate of speed. And "Potts" mourned because the Fresh wasn't on his Varsity line. Last night's scrummage was a whirlwind cleet-sting contest from start to finish. "Potsy" jj isn't waiter for Saturday's tangle with Ames. "There isn't any first string any more" is a good way to describe this week's squad. We'll guess with anyone one except "Potts" on the line-up to start Saturday's game, and bet that neither of us will be right. One theory we do feel forced to put in print, however, is that "Tarzan" Weidline will be in the Kansas line-up before many weeks. Students to be Awarded Fine Arts Scholarships Mrs. John T. Stewart of Wellington has offered two scholarships in the School of Fine Arts. One of fifty dollars to a student carrying music has been awarded to Helen Kell fa22, of Lawrence. The other which is also fifty dollars is to be awarded to an art student. Mr. George Images offers a scholarship in music which has not been awarded. Ruth Eaton, fa'25, spent the week end at her home in Gardner, Kan. Chi Omega announces the pledging of Helen Wagenseller, fa24, of Junction City. County Club Outlines Plan to Put K. U. First The first business meeting of the Barton County Club was held last Thursday night in Room 215 Fraser. These officers were elected for the Council, President, Frank Hill; vice-president, Rita Seedman; secretary-treasurer, Rita Smith. A campaign was outlined for a "Put K. U. First" movement to be carried out during the Christmas season. The team would kick the ball games and a dance. A resolution was passed to meet every two weeks on Thursday at 7:30 o'clock, Room 215 Fraser; and a fine Wednesday it was collected for each unexcused absence. At the next meeting, which will be October 27, plans will be discussed for a Thanksgiving vacation party for the members who remain here. All students from Barton County are urged to attend. GRUELLING WORKOUT FEATURES PRACTICE Varsity and Frosh Clash for One Hour in Hard Scrimmage LINEUP MAY BE CHANGED Night Practice Will Soon be Held Under Electric Lights Last night's football practice was not the usual light workout following a hard game, but a rough and tumble scrap with the frosh was the attraction. No friendiness or hand shaking was noticeable in the scrimage between the yearlings and the varsity. The frosh were out for meat, and grew to the exaltation of second-string players before first year men succeeded in tearing through the varsity line for great gains. One touchdown was marked up for the freshen after an hour's gruelling mulee. Once the varsity held the future Valley stars for downs on the six inch line, the youngsters lacking the punch to get through the stone-wall defense put up by the regulars. The scrimage was hard-fought all the way, and the youngsters lacked the punch to gain against. Alexander and Hedges lugged the pigskin for good results for the frosh and Allison and Griffin showed well for the varsity. Next Saturday may see a changed line-up against the Ames Aggles from that which carried the Crimson and Blue colors against Drake. Intensive and secret will practice be the menu served to the Jayhawk squad by the Kansas coaches this week in preparation for the Ames team. And we have the gridiron warriors enter into one of their hardest practices since the first two weeks of conditioning tactics. The squad scrimmaged against the freshmen until the shades of night had made it almost impossible to see the white footballs, painted purposely for twilight practices; and after running two teams at signal practice for about a half an hour vigorous damn-doings, and we left the workout just as the moon began to shine on Mount Oread. Coaches announce that before many moons, a white-way electric lighting system will be installed on the Cow Furnace, and darkness will be no obstacle in practice. The defeat at the hands of the Drake team is expected to result from termination into the men; from now on there will be no first team, and the man who delivers the goods will be in the fray next Saturday, judging from the way "Potsy" was trying out new material last night. The Coaches indicated that there was no further images; each man was to fight his best all the time or lose his place on the team. The shake-up in the line-up yesterday almost made the first-string team an unknown quantity. Freese, one-hundred and ninety pound guard was taking care of Davidson's tangle in great shape against the freshmen; Wynkoop, a 15-year-old wing positions; Captain Jones and Reedy filled the guard requirements, and Wynkoop and Weldine cared for the other tackle duties in the skirmishes with the yearlings. Hale was used in his old position at center. Higgins, regular tackle, is nursing a sore arm, but it will be in shape to play Saturday, as his halfback has been troubled with before. Davidson was kept out of the scrimmage with a badly sprained knee, and may be unable to play Saturday. The most consistent performers in the backfield were Mifflin, Griffin, Kreuger, McAdams, Spurgeon, Wilson, Allison, and Denton. Kreuger and Wilson worked at quarterback. From early indications it would seem that Kreuger, Griffin, Spurgeon, and Mifflin or McAdams will carry the brunt of the backfield duties Saturday. At any rate, it has been hinted abroad that some new performers will be in the line-up against Ames. FRENCH NAVAL POWER ENTIRELY INADEQUAT ld class condition, including three dreadnaughts of the type of the Loe- lraine and four battleships of the type of the Paris. Fleet Not Large Enough for Protection of Colonies in Pacific By WILFRID FLEISCHER. France's naval program was interrupted in the course of construction by the outbreak of the war in 1914. The building of six new battleships was then under way. All efforts were then turned to the building of a larger submarine campaign and towards the manufacture of munitions. (United Press Staff Correspondent). PARIS, Oct 18.—The discussion centering in the French Press around the Washington conference has brought to light some interesting data concerning the French fleet. It is usually considered inadequate for the American navy's colour Pacific and for her prestige as a first-class power. At present France has but few oats in first-class condition, the肌 of the fleet being made up of ld vessels, of a discarded type. The oats are published here, compris now but even capital ships in really first- invalid. Of the smaller craft there are thirty torpedo boats in more or less good condition twenty-four submarines and patrol boats good for coast protection. There are in addition four old battleships of the type of the Voltaire, launched in 1900, but now consider- In addition to the above-mentioned, Germany turned over to France, in accordance with the terms of the treaty, and served as a guardian for its officers in moderate condition, one torpedo destroyer, and ten submarines. Naval experts are asking for a reorganization of the fleet, encluding a new squadron with France's standing as a nation. The naval budget, which has not yet been voted upon by the senate, calls for an appropriation of $800,000. The budget and is applied only to small ships and is intended for the construction of six cruisers, twelve torpedo beats and twelve submarines. William J. Dixon, e22, spent the week-end in Topeka and Manhattan doing thesis work. This drastic step, which threatened to have serious consequences in 1914 and which constitutes an open challenge to Sim Feiners, has been decided upon by the Belfast government. This decision is because of the British failure to prevent the Irish Republican troops drilling Arming of Volunteers Challenge Sinn Feiners Volunteers are to be armed and mobilized. The stage has now been set for civil war on the largest scale Ireland has ever known, should a break in the negotiations of fighting between North and South begin. Catholics in Belfast have long lived in terror of the day when the Unionist regurgitants encouraged migrations southward across the Boyne were expected to follow the mobilizing the volunteers.
