GREEKS MAJORED IN GYMNASTICS---WILCOX
Ancient Sports Took Exercise in Morning and Studied In Afternoon
"It is unfortunate that some of the Kansas track men could not have lived in Greek times," remarked Prof. N. Wileox, of the Greek department, this morning, "for in the early Greecian schools the teaching of gymnastics was emphasized far more than it is today.
"A large part of the education of the youths was physical. The early hours of the school day were devoted to physical training, and the latter to intellectual. School was held in an enclosed open space called the kiddie pool, usually near some running water, which took the place of a shower.
"Wrestling was the principal sport, which the athletes engaged in entirely nude, their bodies covered with sand and oil. Many of their sports discuss throwing, running, and the use of weapons. They usually the same today, and in addition they had many other track contests that we do not have.
"Public games, like the track meets of today, were held on every conceivable occasion, and a winner won not only honor for himself, but for the whole state. In only one way, the training of women, do our athletics need to be so elaborated listes excel today. Sparta was the lowed to enter to any extent."

Tigers Are Said To Play a Rough Fighting Game—Kansas Dopes Better On Goal Shooting.
"Will Kansas take the coming basket-ball series from Missouri Friday and Saturday?" is the question uppermost with Kansas basket-ball bugs. And it is a question which will have much to do with the K. U. chances of winning the Division Championship and meeting Coach Steilman's warriors in the finals for the All-Valley honors.
To win the Southern Division Championship means that the Jayhawker quintette must win at least two games from Missouri, and probably three. Unless Kansas wins these two games on her own court, her chances will be small for a victory on the Tiger floor.
Hence it is up to Kansas to wade in tonight and get into the going from the jump. "Red" Brown may play his last series against Missouri and would be some what weakened without his presence in future contests.
Team and Coach Confident.
The team and the coach are confident of taking both games of the series. Spectators who witness the struggle will see a fight worth the price of admission. Missouri has a win this year and will fight to the last, as shown by the Aggie games. Heretofore Missouri basketball teams have done very little fighting after the first half, but this year the Tigers are battling till the end of the game.
Kansas will use the open style of play, while from all reports Missouri will try a totally different game. In all the contests up to date the Brewer team has depended mainly on close guarding, rough work, and fighting to win. Whether this will succeed against Kansas is an interesting question. The Jayhawks are somewhat used to this style themselves and can probably give the Tigers as good as they send.
Goal!
How strong on Hitting Goals. However the men will go in with instructions to play an open game and they will probably stick to directions. The strength of the Hamilton team lies in its goal shooting ability, and unless the Tiger guards are exceptionally good the Kansas score should be much larger than any Missouri has rolled up this season.
From a Kansas standpoint the Jayhawks should win by a ten point lead, since Kansas defeated the Aggies in two games by that margin while the Tigers appear nearly even with the Lowman machine, judging from the scores of the games played on Monday. The Tigers will also be under a disadvantage, as coming here at the end of a week's trin.
The line-up of the Jayhawks will be Sproull and Brown, forwards, Weaver, center, Captain Greenlees and Dunnie, guards.
Strobel was terribly injured in the harvest field last summer by falling on a pitchfork. Little hope was entertained for his recovery when he was taken to Rosedale; for several weeks he has been living on nerve alone.
Clyde Strobel, a freshman in the College last year who was taken to the Rosedale hospital early in the year to complete the last-choice operation, is recovering.
However, his one chance was good. The operation was entirely successful and Strobel is now reported on his way to complete recovery.

BASE BALL ARTISTS PRACTICE EACH P. M.
Practicing Now in Gym But Hope to Get Out Doors
Soon
Coach Leonard Frank predicts that two weeks will see the start of out door baseball practice. So far the daily practice has been held in the gymnasium, the men getting into form for the more strentuous field work. About 25 men have been turning out for practice, and Frank has issued a call for as many more. Several men are trying out for each position, and the prospects are good for a classy aggregation of diamond stars. More twirling material is still needed, however. The quicker the men turn out to practice and become familiar with the team work, the quicker will the coach be able to pick a winning team.
Hereafter practice will be held from two until four o'clock every day. Two trips will be taken by the team this year, four games being played on each trip. The game with Illinois was called off, but one was signed with the Chinese nine. The first game of the season will be played April 5, when the Bethany Swedes from Lindsberg come to Lawrence. Eighteen games are to be played this season. This is the heaviest schedule that Kansas has ever arranged.
The Intercollegiate debating squad meets this afternoon at 3:30 in room 110 of Fraser to outline plans for the coming debates with Oklahoma, Colorado, and Missouri.
