JAYHAWKERS WON FIRST M.V. CONFERENCE GAMP
Costly Errors on Part of Both Teams Made Loose Contest
SCORE WAS 13 TO 2
Nebraska Pitchers Were Unable to Cope With McCarty's Hard Sluggers
Coach McCarty's progesed won their opening Missouri Valley Conference game yesterday afternoon on McCook Field from nine by nine in the final scored score of 13 to 2.
CRAIG FANS NINE MEN
Opportunity hitting by the Jayhawk slugger with a score-getting style of baseball was responsible for the one-sided victory for Kansas. The Nebraska errors were costly, however, in that they were responsible for a few of the Kansas players getting on bases.
The Cornhuskers made one of their two runs on Kansas errors and earned the other one on straight hitting. The error were more costly than the Kansas errors because the Kansas players were more adept at pulling out of the holes caused by their errors. Craig famined nine of the Cornhuskers in retiring, but five of the Kansas players by that route.
Pickett was removed from the box in the last half of the sixth inning after Melhennay had just smashed out a three bagger and four Kansas players had crossed home plate. He was sent off at center field as the landed on the ball for another hit and scored Melhennay. The Jayhawkers batted around in this inning.
HIT BOTH PITCHERS
Berkwest did not have any more luck with Coach McCarty's sluggers than his predecessor, and four more runs were made the next inning. Smith, the Kansas catcher who replaced Carter in the eighth inning tied with Radell of Nebraska for the highest batting average by batting one thousand per cent. He did this by making a hit in one time at bat, while Radell made three hits out of as many times to bat.
The same teams will clash again this afternoon.

The box score:
Uncle Jiminie Green summed up General Fan's opinion of yesterday's game thus: "By golly, we got Nebraska's goat. That Red is a pretty good pitcher," with emphasis on the "pretty good."
SPORT BEAMS
Capt. George Smee smashed out a home run hit in the game yesterday and was only kept from being credited for the hit. Mr. Binksak's first baseman, wiltfully grabbed hold of his shoulder when he was rounding first base and held on until Smeer jerked loose. He then had plenty of time to make three bases. He would have could see no excuse for the first baseman, despite him in such a manner.
Dick Rutherford, the famous Nebraska football player, is managing the Cornhusker nine this year, and had on a suit yesterday working out with his team. He did not play in the game but from the way he showed up he would have little trouble in holding down one of the positions if he chose to do so.

ROBERT E. HOUSE In the 700 Block
Paul J. Rutherford, c20, from Wellington, Kansas, is a cousin of the Nebraska athlete. He played quarterback for three seasons on the Wellington high school football team, but did not come out for freshman football practice last fall because he has a bad knee.
Mgr. W. O. Hamilton was out to "If I Wean Dean" last night in a full dress suit. This is a little unusual for the manager, and some of the men have been among themselves to give "We Want Hamilton," but finally backed out.
No honorary and professional fraternity or hash house games are scheduled before Saturday. On that day, however, six fraternity teams and twelve hash house nines are scheduled to play.
probably will be reached at the meeting of the valley conference late next month. If the majority of the conference members vote to retain football, the major college sport, no doubt Missouri will be among the majority."
Two Pan-Hellenic baseball games are scheduled for tomorrow. One is between the Kappas and the Spartans at the office of the Phi Deltis and the Sigma Nus.
The Umpire in the Kaysee Star says that: "Although football has not been abandoned at the University of Missouri, it is considered practically certain that there will be no Tiger game from Columbia. The matter was discussed during a meeting of the athletic committee. A final decision
The first serious accident of the Pan-Hellenic games occurred Tuesday when Gregory, of the freshman squad and who was playing with the Sigma Chi nine, sprained his ankle while stealing second base. A runner took his place at second base and he was partly carried from the diamond but continued in the game, when the Sigma Chis took the field again.
CRACK TENNIS MATCHES
PROMISED K. U, THIS YEAR
If arrangements can be made, K. U tennis enthusiasts are to see some exhibitions of some high class tennis playing this spring. Coach Hamilton and Capt. Allie Cowgill are trying to arrange for some of the best players from the Kansas City Athletic League in this spring. These will include Jack Cannon, Dix Teacheren and other Missouri Valley stars.
NO TRAINING CAMP FOR N.G. 'S!
The schedule this year includes Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, and probably the Kansas Aggies. The K. U, and Aggie tennis teams have never met before, but a meet will be arranged for this year.
The big tennis event of the year will be the Missouri Valley Conference tournament. This probably will be held at Columbia, but the Rockhill courts at Kansas City have been off-ended. The last year was not finished last year will be begun all over again and played through to a finish this year.
Guardsmen Have a Better Chance for Advancement in Companies, Says
Send the Daily Kansan home.
Adjutant General Martin
Captain Jones has received information from Adjutant General Martin that National Guardsm cannot enter the training camp for officers at the training camp. General further stated that in his opinion there was no advantage in assigning a member of the Guard to the training camp. Available instructors at the training camp are so individual instruction is impossible.
In a company organization, he points out, every squad of eight men have an experienced man in charge, with whom the team will interest in their men, will encourage

Behind the production of Kirschbaum Clothes, there is an institution with the strength, the size, the weathering power to hold true to its course in the face of a veritable hurricane of difficulties which have been raining upon the clothing world.
- Quality unveering and undeviating, today as always—whether you pay $15, $16.50, $20, $25 or up to $40.
