K. U. GIRLS LEARN TENNIS--IT'S EASY
Fluffy Haired Instructors Have Their Hands Full Showing How
They are learning to play tennis, under the direction of a fluffy-haired instructor. They were two stout girls and two thin ones, with two ideas in life, to improve their figure and to hit the hall.
The largest member of the quartz served a ball with such crushing force that it sailed to the far end of the court and bounced up and down in front of a languid Burne Jones lady. She gazed pensively at the ball, allowed herself to droop toward the little white sphere, picked it up cautiously, then made a fustive dab with her racket.
The ball rolled ten feet on its journey toward the stout lady, who galloped furiously out to the center of the court, grabbed at the ball and sent it once again toward the Burroe-Jones effect. Sixteen time two of them reopened the performance, but the court always hoping that the languid one would get the ball at least over the line, the languid one never succeeding.
At the other side of the court stood a prim, precise, "prunes and prisms" maiden learning the back-hand stroke.
"It's perfectly easy," said the fuffy-haired little instructor, taking the racket firmly in her strong brown hand. "You hold your racket this way and then just turn it like this."
Miss Prim gave a feeble and wobbly imitation of this clever twister; Meanwhile her stout partner was giggling apologetically every time she missed the ball. She hit at eleven balls and giggled ten times.
"Very good," said the instructor, balancing herself easily on one toe, and dexterously whirling her rocket. "All you need is a little more practise. Class is over."

K. U. GIRLS LEARN SWIMMING AT GYM
Screams and Splashes May Be Heard in Pool Every Afternoon
Every Thursday and Friday afternoon between the hours of 3:30 and 5:30 more than fifty University girls are in the swimming pool at the gymnasium earnestly, but screamingly, attempting to learn the principles of that delightful art—swimming. A few of the girls have already learned to swim the length of the pool with the aid of Dr. Margaret L. Johnson's new assistant, Dr. Naismith.
Dr. Naismith said this morning, "Every girl as well as every man should know how to swim and swim well,—with the increased number of pleasures on the water, comes the increased danger to people from drowning and the only way to bring up the balance is to educate a larger group of the people in the proper way to swim, how to conserve one's strength while in the water, and what to do for a drowning person."
The sophomores will have the pool on Thursday and the freshmen on Fridays. The other afternoons of the week the pool will be open to the other girls of the University. The boys will have the exclusive use of the pool in the mornings and evenings.
All girls in gymnasium classes will be required to learn how to swim the length of the pool in order to get their credit in Gym this semester. The sailor stroke will be taught to the girls as it is believed that this stroke is the better for longer swims. Many of the girls are already doing so well that Doctor Johnson may consider filling the pool up to its greatest depth for these girls on Saturdays. At present the pool is kept at a depth of 5 feet at every point.
