It is the intention of this organization to limit the membership to live wives, who are willing to sacrifice a life for the sport of university athletics.
The KukU Klan will try to secure concessions from director of Athletics, Forrest C. Allen, from which they will be able to raise the money to promote this organized support of athletics. Dr. Forrest C. Allen, was unable to give up any definite informa-
tion about his plans, but would be granted the Kuku's, but he offered assurance that he will do everything he can to help the Klan

MANY FRESHMEN ARE OUT
Work in Conditioning Players
Continues; Soon to Hold
Seismology
Scrimmage
If the number of candidates has anything to do with *w* winning football team, Kansas should have that team, for 120 men are out for football. For the Variety, sixy ninja reporters reported that they were equally as many Frush suited up and worked out for the first time. More than thirty men applied at the Variety sued for equipment, and were told there was none. In other words, no one was suited up at the University to take care of the men who want to play football.
The work in conditioning the men was continued Monday, and there will be no scrimpage before the last of the week. Broken field running, the stiff arm, and apiking were given most attention. The team worked with the line dummy.
Practices in signal work was given, but more to get the men used to running together than for the plays. A man with a woman with men left over, were picked out.
Road and Iy, ends, Sandurel and Fraker, tackles, Smith and Davidson, guards, Hart, center, composed the line in one squad. In the back field were Mandevelle and McAdamas, half-backs, Little, quarter, and Simons, fullback. This squad seemed to be working good and fast. Another team picked by the coaches was Lamb and McBennan, middle-backs, McKee and Arthur's, guards, Wolfe, center McVey and Allison, halfbacks, Wilson, quarter, and Spurgeon, fullback.
In a talk to the men while they were parting with Dr. Allen said "You men are taking the training and conditioning rules wonderfully and I know the work is hard, but I mean for it to be. This is only a 'patching' to what you will have, if you stick ground here."
Sunday afternoon, the entire squad will walk to the Country Club. They will talk football, but the real idea for the hike, is to enable them to get acquainted. "You follow ought to know every other man on the squad, and you don't want to be afraid of the community spirit, don't be afraid to tell the coach your troubles, if you have them, maybe he can help you. Another thing I want to impress upon your minds as this: I want every man to get out here on the trail, because he doesn't mean the coach is any more excusable than you follows. If I am late, you should hold me accountable just as I am going to hold you."

Everett Bradley, man of the hour, at K. U., who participated in the classis pentathlon in the Olympiad and won second place by scoring twenty-five points. S. Lobeton, Finn, first over Bradley. Bradley still maintains his lead as he has not been defeated by any American. Bradley won the right to the title at the official American pentathlon of the Penn Relay Games, which were held at Philadelphia late last year. Bradley was scheduled to enter the decathlon, in which Brutus Hamilton won to the first that he caught a very severe cold after he had participated in the pentathlon, the coaches in charge refused to let him enter.
FINN BEAT U. S. IN JAVELIN
The only superiority shown by any foreigner over American athletes was javelin throw which we saw in "Battle for the Wall" (202 feet) Bradley said. Bradley threw the javelin 162 feet for eighth place. Is the broad jump, Bradley made 21 foot. In the 200 meter race he tied for first place in 23 seconds flat. In 1500 meter race Bradley placed fifth.
Bradley also competed in a triangular meet between Sweden, France and America, in which America outpointed her competitors by eight points. Bradley was entered in the broad jump. He got four jumps that averaged 22 feet and 11 inches, beating out Peterson who won the broad jump (23 feet) but not Bradley (24 feet) also competed in a dual meet between England and America, which resulted in a tie, each nation winning five events.
All was not work, however, for Bradley was royally entertained while aboard. He was banqueted in Lokal on his way to an awe-inspiring walk on a sight-seeing trip over the battlefields. Bradley stated to a Kansan reporter this morning that he had never had a better time in his life than he did every minute of his extended trip.
Bradley stated that he had considerable fun in engaging in verbal combat with Roy Watson, who is also captain of the truck team from his school, Kansas State Agricultural College, at Manhattan. The old rivalry between Missouri and Iowa was brutal. Brutus Hamilton of Missouri won second place in the debkathon, in which Bradley was unable to participate.
The only kick that was expressed by Bradley in regards to his trip was in regard to the poor accommodations given the athletes while enroute to Antwerp. They were stowed in the inship the hold beneath the water lines, which was anything but comfortable he said. They were stowed in the members of the American Olympic team as satisfied with the marchant and the training quarters. "America's premier athlete" will be in school this year to captain the track team to the greatest season in its history.
Too much praise cannot be given Everett Bradley as there has never before in the history of the University of Kansas biology department that he mounted for Mount Oread that have been accorded the University through Bradley.
