12 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN TUESDAY, OCT. 6, 1925 PAGE FOUR Clark Working on Kansas Backfield for Ames Battle Light Practice Opens Week of Training to Develop Pass and Fakes for Game Light practice last night marked the opening of the week's training in preparation for the Ames conflict next Saturday. "Pokey" Clark is soldiering up the weak spots in the backfield, where he will be strengthening other points that will need fixing before meeting the Iowa Aggies. In secret practice last night several new fakes and pass plays were instutted which will help the Crimson and Red teams to win the rong of the championship ladder. The teams run signals until late The freshman squad is being drilled in Ames tactics and will face the variety in scrimmage later in the week Schmidt's ankle bobbers him a little but it will be healed in next Saturday's sally, "Stony" Wallk is knee in bad shape also, but not prevent him from putting power below the Kansas offensive next Saturday. Secret practice will be used the rest of the week in preparation for the Ivian invasion. The rain will handle the team in scrimmage but it may make training for Staten at Ames and the mud scrimmage will do the squad good. Squad in Good Condition Cross Country Men Run First Race Against Time coach J. W. McMurphy's cross-country prospects ran their first once against time Saturday forenoon. The distance was slightly more than three The men finished fairly well grouped together and most of them showed up well. Brown and Jarbock finished in a tie for first place, with Coffin, Ernest, Bromson, Lewis, Bromson, and Morris in the positions in the order named. The remainder of the square was not far behind the leaders. The cross-country captain will be elected after the final tryouts Saturday afternoon, Oct. 10. With the exception of a few sore arches, the squad continues to be in good condition, and there is nothing to handicap the runners. With the exception of Ames, little is known of the strength of other valley cross-country squads. Reports from Ames are that they have a large squad practicing daily, however, there are only a few men on their map. City Clerk of Soldier Has Had Longest Term In order to call public attention to the long continuous service of many city clerks in Kansas, the League of Kansas Murpeltalies has consulted the records to discover what clerk has served the longest. The honor he received from the Society has been on duty continuously for 25 years and 4 months. A number of other clerks in Kansas have served almost a quarter of a century. These include: Charles Banker of Salem, 24 years; 9 months; A. R. Bell of Checton, 25 years; 5 months; J. H. Bell of Cedar Rapids, 10 months; James W. Allard of Osawatome, 24 years; 5 months; C. H. Porter of Pleasanton, 25 years; 9 months. Others who have given lengthy service are: W. W. Dorn of Junction City, 21 years; 7 months; John T. Campbell of Seneca, 21 years; 6 months; William F. Clarke Plain, 20 years; F. W. Sourk of Guillot, 20 years; 6 months; E. L. Macker of White Cloud, 21 years; 3 months; B. S. Williams of Woodson, 20 years Oklahoma Football Men Attend Varsity Dance Members of the Oklahoma Aggie football team were admitted free to the varsity dress Saturday night. The Aggie followers were allowed to bag stag tickets. It was surprising to see the number who said they were from Oklahoma and applied for stag tickets. It was even more surprising to see the number of K. U women that see them, least bc known to those of them could carry on a conversation about the University nad the game. However, quite a num ber of men from Oklahoma did attend the varsity. Members of Bradhamthi entertained their adviser, Prof. Allen Crafton, with a hike Saturday afternoon in honor of his birthday. A nienic served was served on the site pf the old Mill. First Practice Tonight of Freshman Basketball All candidates for the freshman basketball team are asked to meet in Robinson gymnasium at 7:30 Tuesday night for the first practice of the season, by John Bunn, freshman coach. Time for checking out equipment and a general outline of the year's program will be given. The usual squad which begins the season, exclusive of the football men who do not report until after Thanksgiving, numbers about 40. From this squad an army officer selected a senior man who report the next year for varsity practice. Senators and Pirates Start World Series on Pittsburgh Field American and National Leagues Open Battle Tomorrow for Honors The world series starts Wednesday at Forbes Field, Pittsburgh, between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Washington Senators, champions of the National and American leagues respectively. The series this year should be closely contested with a young Pirate team facing a veteran group of players from the old school. The greatest of the great pitchers of all time will probably be on the mound in the inverter for Washington, while facing him will be another vet. In the worst case, bespectacled Buckner hurler. Many years have elapsed since Pittsburgh witnessed a world series. It was in 1909 that Babe Adams, still pitching for the Pirates, turned the Detroit Tigers under Hughie Jennings back in three different starts and enabled the Smoky city athlete to grab the world's championship. The percentage figures this year give the Senators the advantage in fielding but the Pirates lead in team batting average. The writer picks a few of these players on Wall street where odds of 6 to 5 are offered on the Pirates. The Kansas will receive a play by play account of the series over radio, which will be published tomorrow. The probable lineups: for Washington—Rice, cf; Harris, 2G; Boslin, If; Judge, 1b; Veach, rf; Peckinpauls, ss; Bluege, 8B; Sievered, c; Johnson, p. P. Pittsburgh—Moore, 2Carey, cF; Cuyler, rF; Barnhart, If; Traynor, 3b; Wright, ss; Grantham, 1b; Boch, cM; Meadows, p.
