UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN CAPT. STATELER WINS K.C.MEET University of Kansas Enters Five Men and Get the First Five Places ESTABLISHES NEW RECORD Running his best race of the season, Ernest Statelier, captain of the K. U. cross-country team, easily won first place in the eighth annual K. C. A. C. cross town run at Kansas City Sat- day afternoon, breaking the record of 25 minutes and 58 seconds made by Rodkey at Kansas City. Statelier's time was 25 minutes flat. The next runner to catch, Welsh, this fall, the Karquay Varsity team. Over four minutes behind the veteran Jayhawker distance runner, while Dillon came in a fifth of a second behind Welsh in 29 minutes and 2-5 seconds. The other two men to finish were University of Kansas freshmen. Five Mile Course Through City Streets Made in 25 Minutes Flat Shaw, a Kansas Aggie freshman, and Grady, the former distance man of the Kansas track team, did not finish the race. Both miles and Grady dropped out soon after this. Grady has been teaching school in Oklahoma since he graduated from K. U. last spring and has not kept in the same form that made him on the roster for the Valley last year. He ran for the K. C. A. C. Saturday. He was forced to quit the race because of pains in his side. L. Dewall and Kietzman, both freshmen from the University, finished fourth and fifth. The rest of the meet were from K. U., the freshmen being entered as unattached. Rodkey did not run in the meet because of a severe cold which has been bothering him ever since the Ames meet. As a result of the run, the Kansas men brought a gold watch and four gold medals back from the city across the line. W. O. Hamilton only entered five men in the run. Staterle took the lead after the first mile and was never headed. He finished nearly four blocks ahead of the nearest runner. His time might have been better had it not been for a line of coal wagons blocking his way near the finish. The good news is that he will meet will mean much for next year's cross country team. Only two men, Rodkey and Staterle, will be lost from the team and that leaves four old men to form the nucleus of the next fall's team. Indoor track work is starting early this year in hopes that the Tiger quad will not get the jump on the Kansas men as in the past. Last Tuesday the time was taken on the mile relay for the first time this season. In the Convention Hall meet last year K. U. lost the meet by losing the relay by a scant foot. Every year the Missouri indoor team were men trying out for the relay team. It was said before the meet in the big hall last winter that the Tiger coach did not know which man to pick out of the twelve, so evenly balanced was the squad. This year there will be fully as many men trying out for the K. U. relay team if the early season competition is any indication. Captain Rodkey stated this might be one way that the may possibly decide the meet as it has done so many times in the past and that the only way to beat the Missourians was to have a large squad to pick from. He urged every quarter miler to get out early and try for the relay team.

Singly and collected, Kansas said heartbeat half-breaking minute when the Tiger's claw felt the life-blood of the Jayhawk. Then a murmur profane and prayerful, a murmur of disbelief, rage, resignation, and hope swept over the Kansas bleachers, broken by the cheerleader! "Rock chalk! Yell, you— Rock chalk!" REAL PRACTICE TONIGHT Coaches Need More Men in Prev vacation Practices Notice has been posted that basketball practice begins with earnestness tonight. From now on the squad will practice every night. Coach Hamilton is expecting many candidates to report the next few nights as he needs more material from his team. Kansas standard. Many lively scrummages are expected when the football men begin to appear on the basketball court. Coach Uhrlaub is lamenting the lack of fresh material. "We haven't enough men out from which to pick a team," is his complaint every night of practice. "We must have more men. We need more players and coaches. It is more new material for the squad next year. Every freshman who has played basketball should be out for this practice makes the Varsity team of next year much stronger." J. S.

TIGERS RETURN WEIGHT THROUGH PLATE GLASS Hole is Still in Window Pete, at the Boston confectionery is sore. There is a reason. 'Tis this: Thursday night, some wild Tigers came into his place of business, and with loud yells and a stool threatened, them. The showman also devoted them outside. They went, taking with them certain weights which belonged to the candy scales on the counter. They decided to return those weights, and did so, one of them by way of a hole, especially made for the occasion, through one of Pete's big plate glass windows. That hole did not seem to realize that its day of usefulness was over. It remained where it was. It is still there. Pete says business was good while the Tigers were in town. Put that window costs a lot of money. And the Tigers who put the hole in it neglected to come back and make provision for a hole-less window. WILL YOU SPEND $22.50 Therefore, Pete is sore. for a tailored to order suit in which have been molded your own individual characteristics?
