JAYHAWKER GOTCHES 'RE OFF AT THE GYM
First Wrestling Class Start Training For Possible Tiger Meet
Coach Frank's new class in wrestling started yesterday afternoon. Practically no work has yet been done in this line, and the prospects for ten or fifteen Gotch understudies are good. A verbal challenge was received from Missouri when Coach Brewer recently conferred with Frank upon the advisability of holding a wrestling tournament.
No definite arrangements have as yet been made, but a meet will be arranged before long, according to the form of sport grown.
Frank's boxing class will still meet twice a week. No further entries can be made in this class.
BLUE ROSE DIAMOND POLISHING UP NICELY
First Week Shows Big Possibilities In Red Domino Production
Lewis Buxton well remembered in last year's production, and for his work in the junior farce, has the difficult role of "Smoke" a butler in embryo, and his work in the comedy lead shows his talent in this line of work as well as in those of more serious lines. Beulah Davis, who plays opposite Mr. Buxton in the role of "Pansy" the Maid is vivacity itself. Darby Jones carries the part of Mr. Van Meter well, and his portrayal of the stern but indulgent father will be remembered.
After one solid week of training, the cast of the Red Domino production, "The Blue Rose Diamond," has show much progress. Mandelle Nachtman and Frank Miller have shown up well in the two leads, that of Margaret Van Meter the daughter of a rich indulgent father, who has ambitions for his daughter to marry into nobility, and Albert Tension a young society beau madly in love with Margaret.
Earl More at Lord Drunderry, and Emil Grignard as Count Deb Toba two fortune seeking noblemen, suitors for Margaret's hand, very successfully make love in the quiet and bashful way of the English, and the nervous and excited way of the Frenchman. Elsie Potwin as Mrs. Stuyvesant, a society matron, and Thomas Hinshay as a reporter both handle their parts as they should.

COACHES LIKE NEW
BASKETBALL RULES
Conference of Officials or Campus Approves This Season's Game
General satisfaction with the new basket-ball rules was expressed at the meeting of coaches and officials held yesterday afternoon in the office of Dr. James Naismith. This conference was called for the purpose of discussing and interpreting the 1913 rules, and while many officials from the Missouri valley and Kansas schools were not present, those who attended were unanimous in commending the 1913 style of play.
"Very few changes in the actual form of playing have taken place," said Dr. Naismith this afternoon. "The whole trend of the rules is toward one thing—a more open game. This applies chiefly to eastern schools, where a defensive game is usually played. Kansas has already demonstrated her ability in the open form of play."
Valley Leads East.
The 1913 rules were announced by the Basket-ball Rules Association, which met in New York last spring, most of its features embodied in the new rules, however, had already been adopted by the Missouri Valley Basket-ball Conference, which met in Kansas City several months prior to this, and were used in last year's games.
1. "All players must be numbered." This was done by Missouri valley players last year.
The principal changes for this season are as follows:
2. "Interference in any way with the progress of a player is not allowed." This will tend to eliminate all unnecessary roughness.
3. "No attempts shall be made to disconnect a free-throver."
4. "Only ten seconds shall be taken from the time the ball is laid down for the free throw." Formerly all time could be taken that was wanted.
5. "Any player making four personal fouls shall be disqualified" This also applies chiefly to Eastern Union players often made fifteen or twenty fouls
Will Prepare Rule Book.
"A complete interpretation of the rules is being prepared and sent out to the Missouri valley and Kansas officials," said Dr. Naismith. "Kansas will be affected very little by the changes made. Coach Hamilton has always believed in the open game, and has trained his men in it."

"If the classes in tumbling and dancing improve in the future as they have in the past month, we will give an exhibition next May that has never been equaled in Kansas," said C. B. Root, instructor in physical education, this afternoon. "I already have several gymnasts and trapeze men who are as good as any I have ever seen perform before any audience."
Mr. Root wants more men to report at the gymnasium. At present there are about twenty-five men in the tumbling classes, and thirty in the fancy and feature dancing and showgirl classes. A consist of solo and chorus work, a kind of refined and high-class vaudeville, according to Mr. Root.
Mr. Root wants Robinson gymnasium for his big annual show on the night of May 1. The engineers also want the gym on this night for their big party, and the matter has yet to be settled.
"We have a few of our best last year's men," said Mr. Root, "but most of the team are new. New work is also being introduced, and many features will be shown when we give our exhibition in May that have never been attempted before this year."
