NAISMITH PESSIMISTIC OVER COLLEGE LEAGUE
Says Rah-Rah Boys Wouldn't Interest City Fans After Big Leagues
Dr. Naismith does not believe the proposed baseball league among western colleges would be successful financially.
For several years there has been a proposition before many eastern colleges to form leagues and play games on big league grounds during big league road trips. A certain portion of the gate receipts would go to the college teams.
In the first place, Dr. Naismith doubles if a college team could be got into shape to play professional ball such as fans in the large cities require. "The game would have to be supported by loyal alumni of the colleges," said Dr. Naismith this afternoon, "and loyalty does not make a very large attendance when the team is losing and the standard of playing is low."
Another thing against the arrangement is the fact that the college men playing would be made professionals and thus be barred from competition in american contests, but the酵术师 still another barrier is the fact that teams would soon become composed of men not in school.
The teams should be composed of undergraduates only but if good players could be obtained from outside some organizations might be tempted to play them as their own men. This would be unfair to other colleges.
"There are two kinds of baseball fans," said Dr. Naismith, "the partisan and the professional. Neither of these would be attracted by the college games and would go far in condemning them.
"In small towns where the citizens are not accustomed to seeing big league games, the plan would probably be successful. But when a college game is played in a town such as Chicago, it could not succeed."
12-POUND HAMMER KILLS

Hamilton Expects Broken Records at Annual State Interscholastic May 2
300 entry sheets for the tenth annual interscholastic track and field games to be held here May 3 at the state fair out to the high schools of the state.
Coach Hamilton expects to see a large turn-out from the state high schools this year in the form of fine track material.
The schools will be classified by enrollment. Class A will include schools of an enrollment more than 255. Class B must have an enrollment of more than 150 and less than 255. Class C will include all schools with an enrollment under 150. This classification equalizes conditions in smaller schools to make a more creditable showing in the meet.
American Interscholastic records will probably be smashed by various high school teams according to Hamilton.
The improvements which have been made on McCook field will greatly facilitate the meet this year. Arrangements for the track and field events have been made as nearly perfect as possible.
In order that the high school aspirant can estimate his chances of winning in the meet, Coach Hamilton has closed with each entry blank a list of the records made in the meet last year, those made during the entire history of Interscholastic meetings and those now held in the American Interscholastic league. All entry sheets will be turned in before the end of April. Manager Hamilton said today that every year the meet has grown in popularity and that this year high schools over the state are expected to respond to the call with more than ever before.
Marley M. Brown, of Olathe, has pledged Phi Delta Phi, honorary law fraternity.
All graduate students should make applications for their degrees today at the Registrar's office.

TRACK PROSPECTS ARE NOW BRIGHTEST EVER
Showing at Des Moines Saturday Beyond All Expectations
The Varsity relay team and Coaches Mosse and Hamilton returned from the relay games at Des Moines in high spirits. Prospects look bright for an easy victory for the Red and Blue in the next track contest, scheduled with the Kansas Aggies for Saturday, May 3.
The men showed better form than was expected of them Saturday, and it is thought that if there had been a longer rest between the two-mile and the mile relays the team might have taken both events.
The running order for the two-mile race was Davis, Ross, Edwards, and Patterson, and for the mile, Cissna, Black, Davis, and Patterson. Black did not run in the two-mile as was stated in yesterday's Kansan. Winning this long distance race brought "Ks" to Ross and Ross, who had not held this distinction until Saturday.
Laws to Hear Dr. Elderkin
The Jurisprudence Club of the School of Law will meet tonight at the Phi Delta Theta house. Rev. Noble S. Elderkin will speak on "White Slaughter."
Greenlees, the dash man and the basket-ball player, is out. for the broad jump, and shows signs of fine form in this event. Schwab, the big spinner, who until recently had been declared inelegible, has removed his ineligibility, and is working out with the track squad daily.
Trettien to Osage City Prof. A. W. Trettien, of Oread high school, leaves Friday for Osage City to continue his course of lectures on "Child Development."
Old Stars Who Wore the Crimson and Blue
Schwab is a 100 and 220 yard man, and two years ago defeated Kirksey, Missouri's star spinner, in the century dash. The addition of Schwab to the sprinting staff makes this department of the team airtight, and Kansas through the aid of Schwab and Greenlee, can probably count on firsts in both short distance events.
The Aggies, although they are known to have a strong team, are not feared by any great extent. The Farmers are strongest in the distance events, and it is believed that Hutto, their captain and star miler, will make Patterson and Edwards go some to take this event. However, 4:32 should easily win this race, and Patterson easily made 4:36 in a similar race in the interclass meet two weeks ago.
