UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN REGULARS MAKE GOOD SHOWING Basketball Men Run Away From Scrubs—Quizzes Keep Players Busy Basketball fans were much pleased by the work of the Varsity five during scrimmage last night. Although several members of the squad did not report for practice the regulars, Gibbons, Kauder, Lytle, Wilson and Uhrlaub, galloped away from the football boys who were handicapped by lack of practice. Good passing and accurate goal shooting on the part of the first team forward, Kevin Varsity, showed up well. On the defense Lindsey showed up well. Shinn made several crack pot-shots from the center of the court. Coach Uhrlaub's freshmen, held the Varsity men down fairly well during the latter part of the practice after the second sound had left the floor. A large number of the men did not report for practice on account of quizzes. Next week Coach Hamilton plans to put the squad through a stiff work out as many of the men will not remain for practice in the holidays. The men show more interest, and competition is keener than at any time this season. With support and interest from the students the Kansas squad will come back to its old time form on the basketball court.

CHORAL CONCERT UNUSUALLY GOOD Prof. Arthur Nevin's Conduct ing Real Feature of Last Night's Performance "The best musical event of the season," is what they were saying this morning of the Choral Union's concert. And he吊坠是 well founded. The University of Kansas has a great choral leader in Professor Arlwin Nevin. He plays upon his chorus—draws it in and leads it out—as a piano artist emphasizes his notes by holding the organ. The trailler coaxes the most delicate shades and the heaviest of ponderous notes from his players. The phrasing in last night's concert, particularly the 'delicate shades of tone volume, and the sensitive diminuendes and accentuates the expertness of the conductor. The voice, it is true, could have been better; but their direction could not. The singers gave excellent interpretation to every number, and their "attack" was especially good. Few groups of vocalists shadens present in last night's music. Mme. Blanche Trelease, the soloist, was not the feature of the concert. Her voice is sweet, and free of harshness, and her personality is a charming one. She interpreted well, and her audience was entirely favorable. Nevertheless, it was the work of the chorus which was the feature of the performance. Mme. Trelease's rendition of Sommerwell's "Birds in the High Desert" was perhaps her best number. Her German songs were unusually distinct. Professor Nevin's own composition. "Daybreak," was the best received of the choral numbers. The music, to which is adapted the words of a Long-fellow poem, is exceedingly melodious, and the number was excellently sung The 100 voices sounded as one, so perfect was their harmony. The "Irish Folk Song" by Bouse was also very favorably received. Not many more days in which to have your Christmas photo made. Make your date now. Squires, the official Jayhawker photographer.—Adv.

VELVET'S smoothness on the coffee largely the result of its two years' Natural Ageing. Velvet Joe FOUL SHOTS Coach Uhrlaub's tyros met a new style of basketball at practice last night as the gang from the football squad combined many of the features of football blocking, catching and shooting, and game. The new mer brought much enthusiasm into the practice which was mighty good to see. Dutch Uhrlaub, is the handman of the squad. Last year he played at guard but this season he has been shifted back and forth; one time at defense and one time at defence Dutch has ganks of fight and is getting away fine this season. Shinn was right, last night. He seems to be a demon when it comes to shooting goals. From any angle the ball drops into the basket, for him. He plays the game as he did football, hard and fast. Although the football men had lots of wind, it was a treat to see them after ten minutes of scrimmage. Lindsey played like a whirlwind until he lost his wind then he played safety guard while Wilson took his place until he was all in. Football is a hard game but not so strenuous as basketball as it is played in this section of the country. The regular squarad has been practicing for over a month and the new material will give much more life to the scrimmages. Competition will be held next on it. The games will show how much of the calibre of the team this year. The frosh are making the Varsity five hump every night. Coach Uhrlauz has his men working better than any first year squad has for a number of years. Several men from McCarty's football aggregation showed up fairly well last night. Mandeleve, the defensive coordinator will help the defense to a considerable extent. Debt claims that the first year men will beat the Varsity before the first of the year. Captain Nelson has been doing good work at his old position this season. The knee which slowed him up to some extent last year is in far better shape to stand the hard drive of the basketball season.
