Two Kansas Track Men Will Compete Saturday In Meet At Urbana, Ill
Rice and Haddock Entered— Others Will Contest at K. C. A. C. Games
Carl Rice and Marshall Haddock Kansas stars in the high jump and the dashes, will go to Urbana, Ill. Saturday to compete in the big invitation indoor meet. This is one of the largest indoor meets of the year and is held on a cinder truck.
Tryouts for the K. C. A. C. meet in Convention Hall, Kansas City Saturday will be held Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. From these try-outs the team that goes to Kansas City Saturday will be picked. A fairly large team will probably be taken although the exact number will not be known until Thursday when the names of the men going will be announced.
This is the one meet in which freshmen are eligible and several will be taken. The two Bradleys from Cherocoe, Okla., are the only freshmen who are reasonably sure of entering. Fishers are the only who are showing up well in practice.
The K. C. A. C is the first big meet in the valley and will probably produce some comparative dope on the annual Kansas-Missouri meet to be held in Convention Hall March 16. Several entries of national reputation appear on the list.
Coach Hamilton is back again working with his men after almost a week's absence with the basketball team and with the help of Fred Rodkey, assistant coach, is rounding the team up. Coach Hamilton wants every man out Wednesday for the tryouts.
SPORT BEAMS
Lieut. Bonnie Reber, captain of the Jayhawker track team in 1916 and winner of "K's" in track, football and basketball, was in the gymnasium yesterday looking over the thack team. Lieutenant Reber is located at Camp Funston.
The final series for the Crimson and Blue basketball team will be played in Manhattan March 4 and 5 with Coach Clevenger's Kansas Aggies.
Camp Funston will enter one of the strongest relay teams in the Missouri Valley in the K. C. A. C. meet Saturday night at Convention Hall. The soldiers will be represented by Daggy, Wyatt and Renick, all Tiger quarter milers last year, and Bailey, another speedster of considerable ability.
The Oklahoma University basketball team inched the state championship last week by defeating the fast Chilcoo Indians, 36-29 and walloping the Oklahoma Aggies, 27-19 The Chilcoo team had previously beaten the Sooners.
The McPherson high school quintet won the championship of McPheron county Saturday by defeating the Lindsborg and Moundridge fives.
Dr. W. E. Meanwell, athletic director at Missouri and coach of the Tiger basketball team, has established a real record as a basketball coach. Out of 166 games played by teams coached by the Tiger mentor at Wisconsin and Missouri, Meanwell's men have won 155 games and lost 10.
Ottawa's defeat of Baker last Friday night gives the Baptists practically a clear path to the State Conference title. Only four games remain to be played by the Ottawans, and three of them are against weak teams. The Bethany Swedes still remain in the race, but their chance of winning the championship is small.
Seven basketball games and one wrestling meet have netted the government $215.96 in the form of war tax at Ames. The Ames-Drake basketball game netted almost $50 in war tax alone.
The annual second district basketball tournament will be held at Baldwin March 1 and 2. The winners will probably be strong contestants for the state title in the tournament here March 22 and 23.
Coach Jumbo Stiehm of Indiana University has announced a full schedule of eight games for his football team next fall.
The basketball team of the W. A. board makes formal announcement of their challenge to the W. S. G. A team in the intermural basketball tournament which is to take place in March. The latter team should appoint their leader to confer with Doris Drought, leader of the W. A. A.'s as soon as possible.

Food Lectures Prepare Women for Part in War
Mrs. E. D. Teeter Tells Need of Closer Application of
"Women of the University should consider the requirements for attending the food conservation lectures as a preparation for the part they are to play in the war," said Mrs. E. D. Teeter of the department of home economics today. Every woman should realize the necessity of food control in America. We do not want it to be necessary for the government to pass laws saying what we shall eat and how much we shall have.
"The lectures will show us how to economize and what to eliminate. Since food is such an important item in this war, it is necessary for the women to realize how much kitchen training is needed in the homes. While a few of our women are needed in France, the majority of them can do more good here at home working out the big problem of food supply.
Economy
"A great deal can be done by our University women by their influence in their own home towns. The ideas and methods presented in these lectures should be carried home by the women. If each woman would do her part, we could produce a better food supply, which is needed in Europe could be greatly increased."
The first lectures on food conservation will be given in Fraser chapel Wednesday, February 27, at 4 o'clock

Direct from the shores of sunny Italy came the shipment of
Borsalino Hats
we received yesterday.
The lighness, the ease with which a Borsalino sits on the head, and dressiness of this style of hats are well known to discriminating buyers. Their wearing qualities are simply an added feature.
Now on display in five shades—
Girino
Beaullo
Nosso c Nero
Piccrone
P. S.—This will undoubtedly be the last opportunity to buy Borsalino Hats until after the war, due to conditions which are rapidly making their shipment to this country impossible.
