HAMILTON CUTS OUT CLASS BASKETBALL
Manager of Athletics Says Students Take no Interest in Games
"There will be no interclass basketball games this year," announced Manager W. O. Hamilton this morning. "The students have not taken the interest in these games in the past years that we had expected, and as a result both Dr. Naisemith and myself consider it a waste of time to take pains on any of this kind. The only person connected with athletics in this University is devoting all his attention to the baseball and track teams."
In past years not enough attention has been paid by the students to this branch of sport. Each year the management has bought suits for the different teams, and given the time of one of the coaches to training the different fives. Then half the games would be defaulted, and the other half won by overtime. The athletic authorities of the University did not feel that the time of the coaches could be taken away from the other work.

JAY BOND WANTS WRESTLERS
Offers For Matches Have Been Received From Missouri and Nebraska—All Weights in Demand
Jay Bond wants men to turn out at once for his wrestling class. The best athletes that he develops, and the most talented wrestlers will have a chance to test their skill against representatives of the other valley schools.
At every other conference school in the valley wrestling is on a firm basis as a winter sport, and Hamilton and Bond want Kansas to be placed on the map as well as the rest of the colleges.
Offers have been received by the management from Missouri and Nebraska for matches and if Bond accepts these he will have to develop a team right away. Athletes of every class in weight are wanted.
NO BASEBALL AT NEBRASKA
National Game Machine Based Education
Din'ka Firm-Dose Attract K. U. F.
The announcement of the abolition of baseball at the University of Nebraska yesterday will not effect the schedule of the Kansas team, this spring. The Cornhuskers were not eligible to play and Manager Hamilton did not intend to schedule a game with the Nebraskans. Last year, Kansas and Nebraska met on the diamond at Lincoln but a rain broke up the game. Nebraska abolished the national game because it did not pay expenses. Every season the Cornhuskens played and upon the advice of Coach Steikm, the Nebraska athletic association took their action.
" baseball does not come anywhere near pearl $ expenses," said Majergr Hamilton of Kansas athletics, today. "Every year we lose from $1,500 to $2,000 on baseball but we do not intend to do away with the game."
In towns represented by organized league teams, college baseball suffers most and this fact put the crimp in Nebraska's athletic finances. The K. U. schedule this year will be one of the strongest in years but few games will be played in "league" towns.

The Kansas legislature passed an act creating Lawrence as the center of education in the state and as the home of the state University, on March 1, 1864. Several cities contested for the school but the race soon narrowed down between Emporia and Lawrence. Previous to this time, Amos A. Lawrence gave $10,000 to the city of Lawrence for educational purposes and the income from this money was used by Lawrence to support the Quincy high school.
No sooner had Mr. Lawrence announced his gift, than the various denominations over the state started after the money. The churches offered to establish universities or colleges at Lawrence but in 1863 Governor Robinson wrote Mr. Lawrence informing him that the Kansas legislature would establish the state university at Lawrence, provided the city donate forty acres of land and raise $15,000. Land was cheap in those days and the site was raised at once but it took considerable effort to raise $15,000, which was a big sum of money to a town the size of Lawrence. The
money was raised and Emporia lost
its fight for the school.
The next year, March I, 1864, the University of Kansas was formally chartered at Lawrence and the work began during the school began immediately.
