Manager W. Erwin will plan so that trying out is not interfere with studies and other engagements. "There are many of the games that could be scheduled only for week nights and in order that the games will not interfere severely with studies, they will begin promptly at 7:15 and close at 8:15," said Manager W. O. Hamilton this afternoon. "Many of the games will be played on Friday and Saturday nights and by playing the game by 8:15, there will be no interference with other engagements. The games were curtains-raised; the year will be scheduled this year. They will begin after the big game, so that any who have other engagements may leave. I think this scheme will work out to good advantage, though this is the first time any auxiliary has been tried. This experience starts promptly at 7:15 and any one coming after that time will miss part of the game." MANAGER WONT RENEW LOST ATHLETIC TICKETS "We can do nothing if you have lost your ticket." Manager Hamilton told a freshman who had lost his ticket. "If the gate-keepers watch it but the gate-keepers to watch for it we can not renew lost tickets. Students who have misplaced or lost their athletic tickets during the holidays will have to buy new ones or pay for them. You can see the ballgame tonight.

Colwell of American Medical Association Completes Examination of University Courses For the fourth time since it was established, the School of Medicine was inspected yesterday by N. D. Solwell, a representative of the Council of Education of the American Medical Association. All schools of medicine in the country are being inspected for the fourth time, likewise. The Council of Education of the American Medical Association is discrediting all medical schools that are not amply equipped to give students the proper training and work and all those that are not holding out for the proper entrance requirements. In 1904, when the council started the work, there were 160 colleges of medicine in the United States, and today there are only 106. In comparison with other countries eighty would be enough to take care of all students in this country, according to a report of the council recently made. The report also shows that the average fees of the medical student are $122 while the amount needed to give him the proper work is $425. It is also shown that, although the number of schools has decreased, the entrance requirements have been raised. In 1904, only four colleges in this country required one year of college work before entrance into the school of medicine while eighty of them do so today. The School of Medicine of the University of Kansas is in Class "A" being among the best equipped in the Middle-west. It is in the list of eighty that require one year of college work before entrance and the fees are a little less than the average. The laboratory for drug analysis at the University touches the life of every Kansan; it is testing daily spices, coffees, teas, linseed oil, and turpentine; crude drugs, patent medicines, habit producing drugs, thus guarding the health and life of the state. K.U. NATIONAL GUARDS JOIN STATE REGIMENT Provisional Company K Becomes Company M in the Kansas Army The University provisional company K of the National Guards has been given a berth with the two regiments of the state and will hereafter be known as Company M. The state brigade is divided into two regiments of twelve companies each. When the company was organized at the University of Virginia, regiments had been replaced by the new K. U. company was added as provisional guards. In November a company dropped out at Iola and December 31 Captain Jones of Company K received orders that his company had been advanced to one of the twelve companies. That brilliant little grand opera prima donna, Miss Edith Thayer, will be heard here at the Bowersock next Saturday, January 17, matinee and night as the star of a new comedy opera entitled "The Rudolf Frimil, Otto Hauerbach and Rudolf Frimil, Otto Hauerbach and direction of Arthur Hammerstein, who, with his accustomed care, has surrounded her with an excellent cast and large chorus. HANDBALL FOLLOWERS TO PLAN TOURNAMENT pursuit. Company M is composed of fifty men of the University. The required number for a company is fifty-eight. Freshmen who join the National Guards receive full gym credit. The limipid voiced and piquant and difficult passages which the star fairly revels in the high notes dashes off with an ease and abandon that are entirely captivating. All in, Miss Thayer in "The Firefly," should prove the operatic event of the current season—Adv. "It would pay the freshmen to belong," said Captain Jones, "for it only requires two hours a week while the gym work requires three hours." AMUSEMENTS "The Firefly" Subscribe for the Daily Kansan. Will Arrange for Championship Games Monday; Faculty May Play The second annual handball tournament of the University of Kansas will be staged on the courts in the Robinson Gymnasium during the months of January and February. That much is certain. THANK YOU! All enthusiasts in the winter sport, will meet with Dr. Naimish in his office in the Robinson Gymnasium Monday night, and formulate an entry list for the tournament. nabbit. Last year the men had a tournament, and a dandy one it was, too! Only twelve entered, but this was due more to the fact that an entry fee was charged than to lack of interest in the sport. The average Jayhawker stude wouldn't pay fifteen cents to go with Cook's Tourists through Heaven, and Doc Naismith says he can prove it. Champion Sweneey Still Here But those men that did enter the big contest more than got their money's worth out of it. There were an even dozen of them, all good players and fine sports. Ben Sweneey, as champion, headed the list, and behind him came Lefty Granger, Clarence Castle, Harry Miller, Ross Miller, Bobby Skinner, Tubby Ketchum, H. Hopper, Howard Orton, and Andy Veatch. ton, and Andy Veatch. Of that bunch the two Millers, Ketchum, Hopper, and Orton have left school. The rest are good for another year at least on the good old court. Many Savants Play There are plenty of handball enthusiasts in the faculty, and these too may have a chance to get into active competition with the students, and show their mettle. T. T. Smith, and Registrar George Foster are sharks at the game. Kins, of the engineering department, both work in the regular star. Conrad Hoffman, the Y. M. C. A. secretary, learned his lesson on some foreign field, but works out well when in action here at hme. Prof. Merle Thorpe, and S. H. Lewis, mentors in the department of journalism, been practicing horsemanship and earnestly rebellious studies in this branch of athletics. (They can't do it, say we, they can't do it!) And so the first meeting of the handball supporters will be held at the Doctor's office in the Gym Monday night at 8 sharp. As many of the possible entries as can be there are requested to come, as rules must be set out that night to last through the tournament. On the number of entries will be determined whether the matches will be played off in an elimination contest, or a "round robin" affair. HUTCHINSON ALUMNI TO WELCOME SINGERS Plan Dance for Glee Club after Tomorrow Night's Concert "The crowds are getting larger and everything is "serene"," was the message Prof. C. A.
