THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN URGES RESPECT FOR VISITING CAGE MEN Dr. Allen Asks That Crowds Refrain From Leaving "Gym" Hurriedly SING THE CRIMSON FIRST Thus Mob Will Not Hampe Coaches, Players and Officials A new policy has been announced by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics, in regard to the conduct of the crowds which throng Robinson gymnastics every year. Robinson can not say too much for the excellent spirit of the "thundering thousand" which has characterized the games played thus far *as* this year, but he is anxious to instill one more point into the minds of the rooters. Hereafter, no spectator will leave the "gym" until after the final whistle is blown. This ruling, of course, cannot be made compulsory, but it is strongly recommended in order that visiting players and coaches shall be able to make their way to the dressing room without being hampered by a formed mob. Another of the same band will strike up "The Crimson and Blue," and the Kansas cage fans are asked to remain standing until the floor has been cleared of players, officials, and coaches. The two games with the Aggies here Friday and Saturday nights will be especially crowded, and the new ruling will go into effect then Four Teams Will Play At Robinson Tonight Fur will fly thick and fast on the Pan-Hollen courts tonight as four good teams are to mix. The first game is called for six a'clock and will be between Chicago and New York. The second is scheduled to take place at 7 o'clock when the Alma Tau aggregation tangle with the Sigma Chia. At 7:45 o'clock the Sigma Alps, leaders in Division 1, will scrap the Sigma Nus Forte-forts minutes later. Sigma Nus will try to romp on each other. Tomorrow the Acacia quintet will play the Delta Theta, and on Thursday Beta Theta Phi and Phi Kappa will meet. Safety razors, shave supplies. Rankins Drug Store—adv.
