Basketball Practice To Begin Thursday Night At Robinson Gymnasium
Team
New Men Urged to Come Out For Practice And Make
The Kansas basketball tossers will hold their first practice at 7 o'clock Thursday night in Robinson Gymnasium, according to an announcement by Captain Dutch Uhrlaub this morning.
As only two letter men from last year's squad are back it is essential that every player eligible for the Varsity quintet should come out for a practice game, and then back from last season's squad are back Uhlabr and Scrubby Laslett.
Kansas took four place in the valley basketball race last winter, although the Jayhawk basket-tossers piled up a pointage of 487 to their teammates from the opposing team. The team started out in championship form, but took a slump about the middle of the season and never recovered. K. U. won the first seven successive games and broke them in two during the Missouri Kansas Argue in the Missouri valley championships.
During the season Kansas also won from Missouri, Nebraska, Washington University, Iowa Aggies, Kansas Normals, and Washburn.
SPORT BEAMS
Only seven men were out for the first cross country practice Monday, Coach Fred Rodiek wants at least twice that many athletes out for the team this year. He urges that they start work at once so that they may take advantage of the plan to run only short distances for the first two weeks. Later, the regular five-mile course will be run.
Fritz Mayn, 210-pound center of the 1915 Jayhawk machine drove up from Kansas City yesterday afternoon to see the Varsity scrimmage Haskell. He thinks K. U. has a great team this year and that he would rather play on this team than any Olcott has coached. Kansas is due to clean the Valley according to Mayn, Beau Olcott having been here long enough now to get a real team together.
The heady piloting of the team and the fast end runs of Captain Black featured the play of the Haskell team yesterday.
Simon, the fast but light fallback, seems to be a real find for the Varsity. He is fast and elusive and he has the ability to make his day's practice after being tackled.
Track Men Meet Thursday
Clarence Gorrill, c'18, who is trying out for football, suffered an injury in last night's scrimmage that may keep him out of the game the remainder of the season. Gorrill made a good tackle but in doing so dislocated his shoulder. The accident is a minor one with teammate and that team because the speedy half was counted on as a strong member is the squad's backfield.
All track men in the University are urged to meet at the new training sheds on McCook Field, Thursday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. Men interested in cross country work are especially wanted to be at the meet-

Women Will Make Up Choral Union This Year
The Choral Union this year, for the first semester at least, is to have only women members, if present plans work. The reason for this, according to President Arthur Nevin, who conducts the union, is on account of the scarcity of men signers in the University.
The first meeting of the union was held last week, and at that meeting fifty members enrolled. The next meeting is scheduled for tonight. The next meeting will be at Nevin, are working on a number of Mendelsohn and one by Beethoven.
The chief aim of the union is to show the community there is nothing hard or elusive in the study of music. Another purpose is to cultivate in the people a desire and a fondness for good music.
The union will give its first concert about two weeks before Christmas. Another concert will be given Easter.

Frank C. Gephart, graduate college '06, and fellow in chemistry, has been commissioned captain in the food division of the Sanitary Corps. Captain Gephart, a specialist in nutrition is working with the Surgeon General of the army in a nutritional survey of the troops in various camps and cantonments throughout the country. Captain Gephart entered the University as assistant to Prof. H. S. Bailey in the food laboratory. He helped in the investigation of various food products, at that time, and worked with Professor Bailey on the first state food bulletin, published in December, 1905.
This was the beginning of state investigation of foods. From here Captain Gephart went to Chicago where he was an assistant in research work at the University. After several years in Chicago, where he took his M. D. degree, he went to New York as a nutritional specialist in a large hospital.

Kansan Subscription List Reaches Its High Mark
The present circulation of the Kansan is far above all previous years and before the maximum is reached it probably will reach more than 2,000 copies a day. Copies will be sent to Company M and Battery B each day with the compliments of the office. Many K. U. men now at Fort Riley have asked for the paper to be sent to them regularly.
At present the Kansan business manager is starting a campaign for alumni subscriptions. A special rate of one dollar for a subscription last December 5 is being offered. This period will cover the football season.

POLITICIANS
You want to reach the voters—yes, you'd like to talk to each one of them, individually and there is a way that you can!
THAT WAY IS THROUGH THE ADVERTISING COLUMNS OF THE
DAILY KANSAN
I'll place it right up to your good judgment—every student-voter reads the DAILY KANSAN, you are reading it now! And when they read the KANSAN, it is before dinner or after—when they are in a receptive state of mind for argument—to read your message to the voter.
Can you meet that same condition with the "passing-glance" handbill or card?
If advertising will sell overcoats, shoes, candy, food, amusement, jewelry—in fact everything—then why won't it be instrumental in showing voters the RIGHT way to vote. Call me this evening at Bell 334, or drop in at the DAILY KANSAN office tomorrow morning.
Sincerely,
Oct. 3, 1917.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN.
