UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN JAYHAWKS READY TO MEET AGGIES Last Practice Before the Man hattan Games Will be Tonight TO GO TOMORROW AT 11:32 Games Squad is in Good Condition and Expect to Win Both The Jayhawker squad will hold its last practice tonight at seven o'clock before it invades the Aggie stronghold in Nichols gymnasium at Manhattan, tomorrow and Saturday nights. All members of the squad are in tiptop condition, w with the exception of Lytle, whose lip was cut to the bone in a collision with Rook Woodward in scrimmage Monday night. His lip is also missing from his mouth and gets into the Aegic games. However, Ernst Ublraum may start the game tomorrow night at center. BEST PRACTICE YET One of the best workouts this week was in Robinson gymnasium last night, when the team had a long practice and scrimmage with Julius Uhrlaub's freshman five, and another five from the Varsity squad. The first thirty-five minutes of the practice was given over to fast floorwork and passing. Both Julius Uhrlaub and Potsy Clark gave the men pointers in the passing game. Potsy was full of ginger, got out on the floor and showed the men how he used to play the game. LASLETT STARS The first scrimage was between the Jayhawk regulars and the tyro quintet. The freshmen put up a good game but the Varsity had them out-classed in teamwork and goal-shooting. Laslett was in form and played a sensational game. He shared first place honors with Rudolf Uhrlaub in the number of baskets. Captain Fat Nelson played a fast aggressive game, while Kauder and E. Uhrlaub played a first class defensive game. Plain Tales from the Hill The men who will take the trip to Manhattan have not been chosen yet. They probably will be picked tonight after practice to squash and will leave Manhattan in 11.32.

Because he did not attend, Mr. Smith could not enroll for the fall term. A timely plain tale handed in this morning reads: "Jack Frost's teeth were too sharp for Wilfred Wann's nose this morning. 'He bites hard', said Wann, as he applied cold water to his stinging nose. Another man almost as unfortunate was dousing his ears in cold water and complaining that the water was hot." It is possible, they both have classes in Administration, where the thermometer was boiling at sixty degrees. Phi Dhi Phai, legal fraternity, was addressed Tuesday night by John Cieland, a judge at Portland, Oregon, on the founding of the organization.

Susan McDonald, c18, is gradually recovering from a mastoid operation necessitated by a fall on an icy sidewalk, January 17. Miss McDonald, who was operated on January 24 at the University Hospital, was in a serious condition for several days. Miss Mary Haight, superintendent of the hospital said this morning, she was much better. Grace M. Stott, e'17, 1201 Kentucky street was blown down by the high wind yesterday morning near the bulletin board and sustained a broken arm. She was treated as a result of her fall.

If a student fails to make good at the subject, he or she will receive a division taught by a teacher student. Last semester there was an enrollment of 2,005 in the English department, with only four rooms to care for this number of students. When the class filled the classes must then be scattered in other buildings on the campus. The rhetoric classes are asked to to write a description of the picture in the art exhibit which makes the greatest appeal to them. "Of course," Miss Winston said, "Most of the freshmen know little of art, but they describe the most striking or most familiar pictures. Our idea in giving this assignment is more to make the freshen notice the exhibit than to have them produce any finished art criticism." SPORT BEAMS Scrubby Laslett made one of the best plays of the scrimmage last night when he went down the floor at top speed, took the ball away from a teammate and then back to the end of the court in less time than it able to count ten rapidly. Captain Fat Nelson is playing in his best form of the season. He is playing a fast aggressive game that characterizes Scrubby Lettu's play with the whistle blows and does not stop until the whistle ends the scrimmage.

It is something like solitaire and the object is to become personally acquainted with everybody. They are tired of meeting a girl and vaguely wondering throughout the year whether she is Sue or Susanna, only when the last day of May, when the time comes for a party, that she was just plain Mary of the senior class all the time—the girl 'd' heard so much about. Nor do they intend to hear a girl's name mentioned for months without learning that she is the tall, slim girl with black eyes and a diamond, with dark blotch skin. Such discoveries are sometimes disconcerting, they declare. They have decided to keep a list of all the girls they have heard of and don't know, which they call a "List of Unknows." Thus each ambitious man to enlarge his acquaintance. Men's names may also be added.

Rice is still out of this event on account of his arm, hurt several weeks ago, but he may be able to work out by the last of this Winn is still on the hospital list as a result of a weak lung, and the shot putters were off form yesterday afternoon. All distance men did good work yesterday, while Pattinson continues to work well in the pool vault. The coaches say many of the men have been better at practice, because a lot of work will have to be done between now and the meet with the Argies, February 19. The K. C. A. C. meet comes on the same date as the Illinois Invitation meet at Urbana this year, March 3. It is doubtful if the Missouri coaches will be able to get their usual advance dope this year by timing the K. U. team, as many of the best Kansas men will go to Illinois this year instead of Kansas City. The C. men are recently changed from March 24 to March 3. The Missouri-Kansas meet will be held in Kansas City, March 16. Crowley was a new man out yesterday afternoon in the shot put. Liggett, a freshman, is doing good work along with the Varsity squad.

This was proved when a co-ed reporter got busy and asked 200 of her college sisters to answer a question about the number of the 200 questioned, 197 replied most emphatically "No." The following One girl put it this way: "You see, I'm always meeting a perfectly new, good looking man with a nice straight tie, and falling in love with him—and then he comes to call or take me to a dance and spoils it all by appearing in a little boy chucked up under his chin, and I just can't bear to watch it go up and down when he swallows."
