WASHBURN FIVE WILL MEET K. U.
Coach Expects a Hard Game From Kennedy's Basketball Team
LINE-UP NOT ANNOUNCED
Mac's Band Has New Music— Gedney Wants More Rooters
"We expect to play some real basketball," was the comment of Coach W. O. Hamilton on the style of play which he intends to use against the Washburn five Wednesday night in Robinson Gymnasium.
The lineup for the game will not be announced until two or three minutes before the whistle that will start the 1917 Jayhawker basketball season. The reason, according to Coach Hamilton, is that in former years several of the players whose names did not appear on the lineup would fail to be on the side-lines during the game.
GAME TO BE A LIVELY ONE
The game with Washburn is expected to be an interesting affair, in spite of the fact that Washburn has beaten the University but once. Coach Hamilton is expecting some stiff competition this year, due to the presence of Coach Bert Kennedy at the Ichabod school.
Mac with his famous music-making band will be on hand to enliven the spirits of the players and clear the way for the leather-lunged K. U. fans. He said that he has selected some new music for this game. Every one is expected to forget his studies from 7:15 to 8:30 to hear the music, see the game, and root until the whistle blows.
GEDNEY WANTS ROOTERS
All the players are in condition, and the entire squad will be on the floor to shoot a few goals before the game starts.
GEDNEY WANTS BOOTLES
Gedney will be there, and will take charge of affairs between halves. He asks that every fan clear his threetruss and the first whistle blows. Good music and rooting will show the 1917 Jayhawker basketball squad that the students are back of them.
The scrimmage last night was between teams from the Varsity squad, and Coach Julius Uhlraub's freshmen, instead of against the Haskell quintet as was originally planned. The change was made because of the game between Haskell and Baker which took place in the afternoon.
At the end of the scrimage Coach Hamilton found that the baskets lacked about four inches of being ten feet high, the regulation height. It raised and light scrimmage held tomorrow to get used to the change.

SPORT BEAMS
Conch Potsy Clark says he is getting fat. He weighs close to one hundred and fifty pounds with all his clothes and a heavy overcoat on.
Dave the janitor at the Robinson Gymnasium scrubbed the basketball floor, yesterday afternoon, in preparation for the Washburn game.
The new K-sweaters have not come yet. Several of the football men ask for them every day. They are expected in a few days.
One of the attractions in the gymnasium last night, and the one which caused the most comment, was the presence of six women students of the University with a woman director, dressed in gym suits, and going through various exercises in the men's side of the gym. The basketball men with a reporter, just had to stop, look and listen for a few moments.
Loon B. McCarty, assistant instructor in the department of physical education, and freshman football coach arrived Sunday from his vacation which he spent at his home in Columbus, Ohio.
Almost everyone is getting interested in, and wanting to play basketball. Yesterday afternoon, Prof. Odis H. Burns, of the department of public speaking, was seen in a gym suit, trying to hit the baskets.
The sport writer on the Capital gives out the warning that Washburn is out after scalp this year and under the tutelage of Bert Kennedy will endow to get revenge for the defeats last year. We will say that the Jayhawkers are after scalps too, and are apt to get one tomorrow night.
The Ames game at the present appears to be the easiest game on the Kansas schedule of Missouri Valley games. The northern school had only one veteran in the early games last week; Boyton, the captain of the team, was playing in a single game with K. U. last year. Both of the games here were close, Kansas winning the first 26 to 25 and losing the second 24 to 21.
It was learned today that Ike Eppinger, star of last year's basketball team at Northeast high school, Kansas City, Mo., would not be eligible to play Varsity basketball this winter because he attended the University. He will enroll next semester, coming from the Kansas City Polytechnic school.
The game Friday night with the Kansas Normals will probably be the best basketball game this week which K. U. will play. The Emporia school has the habit of putting out a winning team every year and with practically all the old men back the team this year appears to be no exception. Last season they won the championship but in the same way they are again put out for championship this winter. The Teachers lost only one man, the center, and the new men out for the team this year include many of the stars from the football team.
TRACK MEN GET BUSY FOR EVENTS
Coach Hamilton Renews Call for More Material, Especially for Weight Events
Robinson Gymnasium was a scene of great activity yesterday afternoon with practically all old track men working out and many new recruits trying various track events. The new running boards were laid on the lower gym floor yesterday and jumping into the open air in the of the indoor season. The men used most of the time getting accustomed to the short indoor track.
Coach Olcott will be in the Gymnasium every afternoon at four o'clock to give all weight men personal instruction in putting the shot. A fine opportunity is offered for a weight man to get a permanent place on the team if he starts work at once. Good training will be provided until it will be in the Gymnasium every day from four to six to give all tracel men attention needed.
Stateler and Groene were the veteran two-milers out yesterday, Rinker, captain of the 1917 cross country team, is out for the quarter mile, while Sproull will run the mile again this year. Davidson and Winn were other old men out yesterday. The Thugak giving holidays getting in shape for the half. Two good pole vaulters are needed badly on the team.
Keitzmian, a freshman this year and a star miler and 880-yard man in his high school days, is working out for the two-mile run. Coffin and Schwartz, two stars from last year's Northeast high school team, are working faithfully. Coffin is a great dault while Schwartz is a fine half miler.
New shades will be put over the windows on the south side of the gymnasium to keep out the sun which in the past has been a detriment to men using the running boards and to men using the shot.
INDIANS LOVE FAST AND
ROUGH GAME TO BAKER FIVE
Coach Venne's Haskell Indian quintet were defeated yesterday afternoon by a 34 to 33 score, by the Baker five, in one of the fastest rough games ever seen in Lawrence. Buffaloehaled at the center, he stepped to tie the game when he stepped over the line after he had made a free goal.

STATE NEEDS SCHOOLS
"Kansas needs better and greater school facilities, especially in the rural districts. Too many of our boys and girls leave school with only a smattering of an education." The state needs better finishing facilities; the University, the Agricultural College, the Mining School, all of these need new equipment. Kansas must keep her schools in the first rank along with our sister states." The governor also told of the needs of state business, bigger industrial development.

CONSTANTINOPLE--CAN YOU
SPELL IT? SURE! IT'S EASY
The geology students have some hard names to remember and spell, such as the Michipicoten formation, Kweeanwa formation, Biwabik formation, Ogishke, and many others. Dr. Winthrop P. Haynes said that any one ought to remember, spell, and pronounce such simple words as
these, because there were lots of more difficult words to pronounce and spell, among which is a lake about thirty miles from his home in Boston by the name of Lake Chargogomanchogochogehambungamu. Another one he mentioned was a parish in Wales by the name of Llanfairpwlroglyngllgologchungrndrolwyllantisiligogopoe.
