NAISMITH TO NEW YORK ON BASKET BALL RULES
To Attend Annual Meeting o Inter-Collegiate Committee On April 4 and 5
Dr. Naismith leaves some time next week for New York to attend the Annual meeting of the Inter-Collegiate Basket-ball rules committee on April 4 and 5. Dr. Naismith and Dr. Cook of Minnesota are the only members of the committee from Western Colleges.
The National Inter-Collegiate rules committee is appointed every year by the National Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association to meet and discuss proposed changes in Collegiate rules governing basket-ball.
At present there are four sets of rules used by basket-ball players in the United States. Through the East basket-ball is played almost entirely according to professional rulings.
The Amateur Athletic Union of the United States has a different set of rules which its members are authorized to use.
All official girls' basket-ball games are played according to National Girls' rules.
Colleges throughout the country have a still different set of rules by which they play. The latter set is followed by all Kansas players.
The chief difference in the rules lies in the dribbling and shooting for goal. Inter-Collegiate rules authorize this play.
Another point of difference deals with out-of-bounds plays. According to the Inter-Collegiate ruling the ball goes to the possession of the opposing team when knocked out of bounds by a player.
According to the professional rulings the ball goes to the man who touches it first after it has left the court. In many other respects the rules of the A. A. U. and colleges are very much alike.
At present Inter-Collegiate rules comply almost exactly with those of the Missouri Valley league.

WEATHER MAN KEEPS B. BALL BUGS INDOORS
35 Men Out Now—Play William Jewell on! April Fourth
"Until the weather improves the baseball squad will be forced to practice in the gym," says Coach Leonard Frank.
"The first game with William Jewell, April 4, is only a week off and we can certainly need some good hard outdoor work," said the coach today, "but until the temperature goes up, we'll have to make the best of it indoors. The men can't loosen up indoors as they can out."
"However, the squad seems to be developing well under such unfavorable circumstances and things seem to be going as well as they could be expected to go.
"But, for the sake of the reputation of the University, and in order to add another twist to the Tiger's tail, we want to make sure that we will for sunshine and warmer weather."
About thirty-five men are out for the team now. The men practice from 2 to 4 every afternoon in the gym. Yesterday three catchers worked out the battery men, and the twirlers speeded up a little.
Kansas has a husky squad of speed-artists this year. Loveless, Bishop, Busick, Hite, Groft, and Hobbs are working on the slab dally. Sabart and Sommers are doing the kneeling. "Leff" Stroull are out for first base.
The rest of the infield will probably be picked from a large bunch of candidates including Coolidge, Ward, Wilson, Painter, and Kistler. In the outfield are Hicks, last year captain, "Chico" Davis, and others.
No batting practice can be held indoors. The men are anxious to get out into the open.
Freshman baseball practice has been completely interrupted by the cold wave, and nothing will be done until it warms up.
MISSPELLED "MINIATURE" AND
ENELOPEWS "DELAYED
Four thousand envelopes that had but one "i" in the word "miniature" were relieved of their blindness when two of the finest little "ies" ever came this morning from Topeka.
O. Weede, chief care-taker of these envelopes, says that within the course of a week they will be able to see as well as ever.
April 11: "Resolved." That secret securities should be allowed in the bible.
April 18: "Resolved: That the city of Lawrence should adopt municipal ownership of the water works."
April 25: "Resolved: That a minimum wage law should be adopted for the women of Kansas."

COATS TELLS ABOUT DEATH OF MILL TAX
President of Student Council
Replies to Inquiries About
K. U. Bill
In reply to recent inquiries "Why the Mill Tax Failed," President Coats of the Student Council today made the following statement:
"The Student Council first took up the matter of a Mill Tax. This action was approved by the University Council and the campaign began."
"The State Normal and Agricultural Schools were asked to help in the fight for a Mill Tax amendment, and they consented."
"About a month before the legislature went to session the three schools tried to agree upon the division of the proceeds to be had from the tax. The State Normal asked for more than it wanted two years
ago, and Manhattan said that ewing to the objection of one regent it would be necessary for them to be left out."
"The uselessness of trying to get the bill through without the aid of Manhattan and Emporia was at once displayed as a result, we have no Mill Tax."
"This left K. U. alone in the fight."
"As a matter of form a bill was drafted for a 1-3 of a mill for K. U. and presented to the legislature."
"The Student Council also took up the matter of turning student fees back to the University and succeeded in getting the law repealed which ent all entrance and matriculationees to the state treasury at Topeka."
Ah! A Genius
Glen Thorpe has installed a grand piano in his rooms at 829 Neosha, and is busy catching up on the new "regs." Thorpe says he never took a piano lesson, but he is a good "ragger" and is much in demand at all star functions.—College Life, Emoryia.
