K. U. Squad Preparing For First Conference Game With Ames Sat
Team Will Serimimage On Me
Cook With Frost Eleven
Behind Closed Gates
Practice started yesterday afternoon on McCook Field in preparation for the first Missouri Valley Conference contest, Saturday, with Ames. A high signal practice and a brief period of training were planned with the freshman sound was held.
All the players came through the Washburn battle in fine shape, no player being hurt. Frost and Foster were not out for practice yesterday on account of school work which they had to make up.
The line-up looked good last right with Doc Marquis out for the pilot position, and many of the other regulars were out working. George Netel was back in charge of entire drill, and Humpy Wilson was out for tackle and guard. Woody, who got into the Washburn game Saturday for most of the battle, was out at his regular position at right guard, on the other side of the line.
The line is worrying Coach Beau Olcott the most, but the backfield is the best that the Kansas mentor has seen since he came to K. U. Captain Nielsen, plunging fullback, has gained veteran from last year's eleven, is the best ground garner of the squad at his left half position. Mandellev so far this year has shown best at running interference for the other backfield players. Foster is going better this season than he was ever has. Frost at right tackle, and Woody, at right guard, are the only "K" men back this fall. Laslett, at left end, and Hull, regular center, are reserve letter men from last season. The remainder of the men being taken from the freshman team of last year, and rights out, are good, and makes an able teammate for Laslett.
Idol is also good at the end role, and makes a good man to lug the ball in the back field. Laslett, a Lawrence high school athlete, is a great wide-awake player, his two pick-up fumbles in the Normal contest resulting in scores for Kansas. In a close match against Oklahoma, team fumbles may either result in a touchdown or place the ball in a position that a score would easily result.
"If the Kansas first string men stay in the game, we will give any of them a rub," is the way Coach Olcott considers Kansas to show up the other team for the game. The players with Ames Saturday after hearing Coach Bond's report of the Iowa Aggies defeating Missouri at Ames last week 15 to 0. Ames has suffered by men being called to war, the line suffering the most. Both of their two star ends are not back. The team might about the same as the Jayhawkers.
Secret practice and scrimmage with the frosh squad is the program for the week. Coach Olcott has several pet plays which he is to work against at the end of the week, as much of the time getting these plays down to perfection this week.
SPORT BEAMS
A regular Varsity basketball practice will be held at 7 o'clock tonight in Robinson Gymnasium and every candidate who is eligible for the Varsity is urged to report at the practice. The quintet will have to be developed from new material this year and Captain Dutch Uhrlaub is anxious to have a large squad out for the practices.
The Kansas Aggie eligibility board has decided that Captain Stiff Randells is eligible to play in the Missouri Valley Conference games. This is in accord with the backboard men as they are anxious to show him he can be stopped.
Dope points to a good game next Saturday on McCook Field. The Aggies are boasting of a championship team and they succeeded in winning with but a one-point margin over Missouri. Missouri was defeated by Ames 15 to 0. This would make Ames about four times as strong as the Aggies. Kansas players say they are going to beat Ames.
The Tigers must be getting exceptionally lean and lank after the hard battles lately. All this indicates an exciting time when the Jayhawk decends upon the animal Thanks-giving Day.
Nebraska beat Notre Dame at Lincoln by a single touchdown, which would indicate there are teams that are using the Cornhuskers a fight this season.
The size of Coach Jay Bond's freshman football squad is gradually increasing. Two new candidates were out for the team yesterday bringing the total up to forty-five for the season.
Honey Says Kansas Will Win Valley Championship
Honey Wilson, colored caretaker at McCook, has the valley race all doped out to suit himself. He says the "Nebraskas" and the "Oklahomaans" will probably put up a good fight against his team, but he is facing the "K. U.'s" to clean up the valley this year.
"Dem K. U. a.sho" do look good to her, "remarked Honey, after watching the kid."
To Pick Freshman Team
After K. U.-Aggie Game
Candidates for the fresh football squad will have no cause to worry about being dropped until after the game, according to Coach Bond.
"The first cut in the squad will be made following the game with the Farmers," said the coach. "About twenty of the best men will be twenty of the most capable with the Varsity on Thanksgiving day to see the Kansas-Missouri game."
The coach is well pleased with prospects for a good team, now. Heavier and more experienced men are turned into the players. The department has been bolstered up by the appearance of two or three finds, who are booting the ball close to forty yards. Several of the candidates have shown ability in drop-kicking. The assistant coach helped to flip the forward passes, the freshman mentor's worries will be over.
Coach Bond said he would have his material moulded into a fast machine with a little more practice. The backfield will be lighter than last year but the line will be just about as beefy as the 1916 line.
Freshmen who are coming out regularly for the team are:
Ends: Hodges, Barter, Neeley,
Lashley, Montgomery, Leedy, O'Donell,
DeTar, tackles; Rinehart, Corry,
Church, Porter, Marxen; guards;
Desmond, Myers, Miller, Butler,
Snare; centers; Duffel, Swartzier;
Shafie; Bullen, Shields; Hauss,
halfbacks; Heizer, McGee, McMahon,
Read, Walther, Harrison, Brite,
Pickerick; fullbacks; Adams and Hostettter.
Cross Country Team Will Meet Manhattan
Five-Mile Course Will Be Covered Before Aggie
Game
Kansas is getting ready for the first cross country meet with the Kansas Agries at Manhattan, November 3. The five-mile run will be held before the Kansas-Aggie football game, Coach W. O. Hamilton also announced that there would be a meet with Oklahoma again this year, when the Jayhawkers go to Norman to meet the Sooners in football.
Last year K. U. clearly outclassed these two schools in cross country and indications are that neither school will win, but both should try Trouys for the team of six men probably will be held next Saturday before the Kansas-Ames football game. In regular inter-school runs, only five teams score, but six run for each school.
Most of the men are running the regular five mile course this week, getting in shape for the tryouts. The best time made this season is about thirty-three minutes, but time under thirty minutes is expected this week. This is nearly two minutes slowen than this time last year.

Gym Department Makes Plans For Big Classes
Two New Instructors Have Beer Added to Physical Education Faculty
In the women's department the numbers will be increased also, as about four hundred women who are now taking no exercise will be required to enroll for work in the department.
The department of physical education is making preparations to accommodate the extra classes that will be required for the students that have been adopted by the University Senate. It is expected that the number enrolled for gym work will be greatly increased, as junior and senior athletes will need a head of military drill if they choose.
