Kansas Has Lost Five of Last Year's Team, But Battery is Intact
With the first call for baseball candidates, Kansas dopesters have begun to figure out the chances of the Crimson and Blue winning the Missouri Valley Championship again. Coach Leonard Frank turned out a strong batting and fielding nine spring. Lloyd and Cainfield, Kampmann away with the Valley flag in a manner that was a joy to all Jayhawkers.
The 1914 baseball team will be minus the services of five of last year's stars. The men who will be missed are Ebnother at first, Hicks at short, Dick Ward at third, Busick in the box, and Bunny Wilson in the outfield. The rest of the nine will probably stand pat on last year's reputation, and the other places behind the bat, the infield and the outer garden will be filled by men who held the places down last spring.
Herb Sommers probably will catch. With Bishop in the box the same old battery will be seen on McCook this year for the first game of the season.
Aiding Bishop will be Leefty Schenk, and Jake Loveless, 1913 men, and Smee from last year's freshmen. DeLongey, the only regular infolder should second. Captain Buster Coolidge will cavort in one of the outer pastures.
Who will fill the three other inner circle places, and what men will replace Wilson and land in the outside circles for a problem which the coaches will have to solve.
Henderson of last year's freshman nine, looks good at first. A hard worker and heady player, if his batting measures up to standard he will prove a valuable man for Coolidex. He is a good backup for Cock Painter, last year Varsity man, and Johnson, one of Bonds's Tyros in 1913 are likely candidates.
Practice is being staged daily in the gymnasium, and a permanent baseball coach will be chosen by the Athletic Board some time this week
K. U. COLLEGE GOES DOWN BEFORE THE WESLEYANS
Home Team Defeated By Church
Goers in a Score of
40 to 25
The K. U. College basketball five was defeated last night by the Salina Wesleyan team by the score of 40 to 31. U. U. was outplayed from start to finish.
The College started out with a rush, Painter scoring two goals in the first two minutes of play, but the Salina lads, a trifle new on the long court, settled down, and overcame the lead. Boyer easily starred for Salina, hooking seven goals in the second half. Brinean with four baskets, and Brown with three played well for Kansas.
The line-up—Wesleyan: R. Boyer, rf.; Corsaut, ir.; Stevens, c.; B. Boyer, Ladd, rd.; Ogden, lg.; Kidman, lk.; Shranach, brinne, c.; Painter, rg; Melville, Walters, lg. Referee, Jay Bond.
When the Glaciers Usurp Their Beds 300,000 Years Ago, Streams Roamed

The rivers of Kansas, walled in by valley bluffs, seem to be pretty permanent establishments. Of course, we occasionally hear of the Missouri swallowing up a few acres, or the Kaw spreading over whole townships, but those are minor incidents. According to Prof. J. E. Todd, professor of geology at the University of Kansas, it was no uncommon thing for the rivers of Kansas in the old, old days, to pack up their sandbars and wander away across the primeval prairies until they found a new home.
THE RIVERS OF KANSAS WERE REAL GAD-ABOUTS
$3.50
Few of the important rivers in the state, says Professor Todd, are now running in channels they began to dig when they started in the drainage business. Many of them are occupying beds secured out by other streams, some of which are dead and some only moved away.
The Missouri, for instance the largest and most adventurous stream did not always guard the northeast border of the present state. About 300,000 years ago it flowed from Nebraska, down the valley of the Republican, and dug out the channel where the Kaw runs now. Still earlier, it ran south near Topeka through the valleys of the Wakarusa and Marias des Cygnes, which is the Osage in Missouri, finding its way into its present channel near Jefferson City.
The Kaw itself was no stay-ahome. Before it decided on its present bed, some three or four thousand centuries ago, it used the course of the Wakurusa from Tupeloka for the walkers from the north side of the river, and the Kaw was busy scooping out the valley view to the south of Mt. Oread.

The Phi Gamma Delta fraternity held initiation Saturday for eleven new members. Saturday night the annual Founders' Day Banquet was held at the chapter house. The new members are the Halleck John Miller, Jared Halpin, Frank Hetherington, Warren Halpin, Mead Irwan, Carol Wakenhut, Otto Dritter, Frank L. Bunn.
The reason for these fluval migrations was the march of the ancient ice. When the glaciers invaded northern Kansas they naturally pushed everything before them. even the rivers had to get out of the way. Farther up, they gently covered up by the ice sheet and when the glacier withdrew, the rivers ran again in their old beds. But in Kansas, on the edge of the advance, the streams merely moved over to wait until the ice backed up. Then they slipped back to their old haunts.

HERE'S HOW NEBRASKA BEAT THOSE GOPHERS
Halligan's Work in Changing His Position in Game Won N. U. Touchdown
The enthusiastic spectators who followed Conference football closely this fall, and marvelled at the science displayed by Dick Purdy's band of flying Cornhuskers, gave all the credit for their marvelous progress to the work of Jumbo Stiehm, their coach, and a few of the more radical fans even insinuated that the tall mentor did all the head work for his eleven, and that his players were mere automats under him.
However, Jack Temple, famous as a Nebraska tackle and captain of the Cornhuskers in 1910, cites an instance of Nebraska strategy that won for them the 7 to 0 victory over the Minnesota Gophers, this year, and says, "I don't think it either. Temple was acting as an assistant to Steimh in preparing the athletes for this big game, and saw the play pulled off."
Temple tells it this way: "Late in the second half, with the score still a tie. Nebraska attempted a forward pass, and Max Towte, quarter, passed the ball on a long end forward pass to the right. Beck, the back of the switch and not in a position to get the pass. In the meanwhile however Halligan playing tackle, (therefore invisible to take the pass), came tearing along and pulled it in. Of course the ball should have gone to Minnesota on the
But the officials—(Eckersall,referee), were not wise to the fact that Halligan, running from a tackle position, caught the pass.
"Halligan winked at Beck, and the squads lined up on Minnesota's 15 yard line with the ball in Nebraska's possession, Halligan took Beck's place at end and Beck going in to Halligan's tackle position. The game went on to a Nebraska touchdown and victory, but it was only this piece of work on the part of Halligan that beat Minnesota and gave Nebraska her great reputation for the current year."
Temple is now living in Gothenburg, Neb., and told the story to Ross Miller, K. U.'13 now supervisor of the department of physical science in the Gothenburg City schools. Miller sent it in as a little sport item.
ELEVEN UNDEFEATED IN HANDBALL TOURNAMENT
Cory Leads With Four Won and None Lost… More Matches
With the completion of the first three rounds in the handball tournament, the scorers find eleven men tied for first place and almost a similar situation in the race for the cellar championship. Two or three of the entrants finish the pace, each man taller than the other, wayaside, and their matches with other candidates consequently are easy grapes for the stickers.
At present Cory leads the list, with four victories and no defeats to his credit. Right behind him come Conrad Hoffman and Ben Sweeney with "three and none" on their side of the table. Haskins, Prof. T. F. Haskins, Prof. T. F. Haskins, Ralph Spots, and Erle Cress have taken spot from which the pass was made.
