SPORT BEAMS
The football squad has not practiced since last Wednesday afternoon because of the rainy weather, but practice will start again this afternoon, according to Speed Heath, who is in charge of the linenen. Speed said there would be about three more weeks of active practice. He wants all of the candidates for the Varsity squad to report at the track house at Hamilton Field at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
The regular spring basketball practice will be held tonight at seven o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium, according to Coach Uhrlaub. New plays are being worked out by the candidates and the coach said the squad would be in excellent condition to start the season next fall, if the war does not cause the University to close.
Potty Clark called the freshman squad out yesterday and held practice on the campus south of the tennis courts. The workout was in the form of a pep practice and only a few freshmen were out. They will work out against Coach McCarty's proteges this afternoon.

Bad Weather and Condition of Trach Make It Impossible to Hold Interclass Meet Today
The interclass track meet probably will be postponed again today. Coach W. O. Hamilton said it was doubtful if the weather and condition of the track would permit holding the meet. He added that he would not allow a track meeting to occur if the meet was held today because of the cold weather.
Coach Hamilton had planned to use the interclass meet as a try-out for the Aggie meet. The order of the Coach will prevent several seniors from missing the events; this will mean the loss of several points for the seniors.
The interclass meet scheduled for last Saturday was postponed till last Monday and then re-postponed until today. Manager Hamilton said this week the meeting will be held Monday if the weather prevents the meet being held this afternoon.
The freshmen will be weakened in the weight events by the absence of Dingy Marshall, an old Kansas City star, who is now guarding one of the Kansas City bridges on duty as member of the Missouri National Guard. If Varsity men are allowed to enter only one event, the meet will be a toss-up among the new men with the freshmen having big odds.
KANSAS MEETS AGGIES ON TRACK HERE FRIDAY
Bad Weather Has Kept Jayhawkers from Training but Coaches Expect Victory
The Kansas Aggies track team will meet the Jayhawkers Friday afternoon on McCook Field. The meet should be a comparatively easy one for K. U., but it will probably be closer than the indoor meet which Kansas won last March by a score of 71 to 14.
K. S. A. C. met Baker recently, winning 78 to 26. The Baker team was hopelessly outclassed, and the Farmers showed better form than they have at any other time this season. Probably the biggest change was the failure of Keys, star Aggie half-miler, to run. Chaffee, the other Aggie runner, won this event in the slow time of 2:08 4-5.
The Aggies showed up especially well in the dashes and the hurdle events, the weak points on the Kansas team. The best distance event which the Aggies won was the two-mile run. Tillotson ran this in 10:26. The Aggies will make the K. U. weight men exert themselves in the field events. Enlow tossed the discs 115 feet 2 inches recently and it is doubtful if any Jayhawker can beat that mark Friday.
Kansas should have an easy time in all of the distance events from the 220-yard dash up. The relay also should be a walkaway for the K. U. men. Casey and Seward will be the only K. U. men in the hurdles, while Davidson, O'Leary, and Crowley will handle the dashes. Pattinson and Atwood will have plenty of competition in the pole vault.
