UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
SCARCITY OF MATERIAL HINDERS TRACK TEAM
With First Meet Three Weeks Off Jayhawkers Are Working Hard
It is only about three weeks until the first track meet and the Kansas coaches are a bit worried. The track season will open with the strong Blue Diamond team from Kansas City, in Robinson gymnasium, February 17th.
Kansas is somewhat weak in the sprints this year. Stuckey and Davis, the dependable dash men of last season, have graduated. Captain Greenlee of the basket-ball team will come out later. Schabw, a former Manual training high school star has been doing the best work.
In the hurdles Hazen is the only experienced man out, but he bids fair to become a star.
Hurst, in the pole vault, will likely bear the buden in that event for Kansas and should be a consistent winner for the Crimson and the Blue. He clears the bar at eleven feet in practice.
In the middle distances there is good material. Black, Davis, Ross, Keplinger, and Evans are all working out regularly. In the mile and two mile, Captain Patterson, Malcomson, Edwards and McClure are all showing good form and should be able to take down a good many firsts for the Jayhawkers. In the weights, two football men, Burnham and Weildine, are doing some good work. Burnham won his “K” alst year in the discus and is showing even better form this season.

BASKET-BALL TEAM
FINALLY GETS SUITS
The basket-ball team has at last received its new suits. These suits were to have been here and ready for use just after the holidays but when they arrived, it happened that they were not what the order called for and were sent back with an order for the same kind that had been ordered before.
The suits now are the classiest in the conference. The jerseys have a blue body with a red stripe around the breast and a V-neck with a two inch red stripe. The five “K” men have a blue basket-ball “K” over the red stripe in front and all of the players are numbered with white numerals over the red stripe in the back. These numbers are required by the conference ruling so that the officials can tell who does the fouling and the spectators may know the players.

HAS VARSITY FIVE REGAINED STRIDE?
Coach Hamilton Tries Roper System and Team Improves Goal Shooting
Has the Varsity five finally hit its stride? Judging from the practices of the last few nights, this would seem the case. For the first time since early in the season the Varsity has shown real pep in the scrimmages and displayed form in goal shooting.
Heretofore Mentor Hamilton has managed to coach his Missouri Valley championship aspirants by the gantler system of instruction. But now all is changed. Instead of the former quiet manner of the Jayhawker Manager in practice, the would-be student now has the series of Roper-like speeches and if a player makes the slightest mistake it means a calling down.
The trouble with the Varsity seems to be that it has gone stale on goal shooting and lacks it's accustomed pep. In the early practices the form displayed was one hundred per cent better than that of either of the first two games. It may be that the Varsity simply became careless and did not play it's real strength in any of the contests up to date.
However, the Hamilton machine has all its parts well oiled and has put in a week of hard practice in preparation for the return games
against the Aggie machine Thursday and Friday. The games with the Farmers do not count as Conference contests but even if Kansas should be among the Conference claimants the defeat by the Manhattan aggregation will be sufficient on which the Aggies will claim the championship, unless the Kansas team hits a faster stride and plays the Lowman five off it's feet Thursday and Friday.
At least the games will be fast ones as the Jayhawkers will be out for revenge and as for the Aggies will be playing on their own courts.

Comic opera, with its boozy Kings, weird comedians, and impossible tenors, has gone to the *Limbo* of forgotten things, and in its stead we have musical farce. The last word in the play is "dismemberment" in the Countess Coquette," which comes from the Bowersock theater, Monday, February 3rd.
