Athletic Board Talks of Double-Round-Robin Basketball Schedul
Change in Date of Valley Mee Discussed Because of Examinations
Discussion of changing the date for the valley meet so that it will not conflict with the final examinations of the schools in the valley, and further discussion as to whether a double-round-robin basketball schedule was feasible for next year, where athletic board is meeting an athletic board in its meeting Thursday afternoon, according to Dr. F. C. Allen.
The valley meet has always been held at the end of the school year during the time of final examinations, and has made it difficult for the athletes participating to take the exams. It has been hard to fix a date for the meet toward the end of the year when some school in the valley was not open. The valley meet W. D. Davis was given permission to take up the question with valley representatives and attempt to fix a more suitable time for the meet.
There has been much discussion as to whether a double-round-broin basketball schedule should be adopted for next year. Due to the Oklahoma State University, the composed of 10 teams which will constitute 18 games being played if the double-round-broin policy is followed. Many of the schools think that this will make too many games and that this scheme should be abandoned.
Dr. James Nainism, in answer to queries that have been made as to whether or not basketball was too strenuous an exercise and harmful to those participating, said that in experiments he had held in the recent years that he found that the players were in better physical condition after their last game than they were before they started to play.

Kansas and Oklahoma Teams Will Meet Tuesday
The University of Kansas tennis team will play a match with the OK lahona team at the Memorial stat hall courts. Tuesday at 3 p. m.
For the first time in two years the dope favors the O, U. team. They won from the Okhahma Aggies this spring without losing a match. Okhahma has one of the best balanced teams in the Missouri valley and has not lost a match so far this season. Oklahoma is close as any that are play this year. Kansas defended Okhahma last year at Norman.

They will be accompanied by their coach Ber Parks, who was a former Missouri valley champion. Capital play, captain of the Oklahoma队, Campbell will play Royer, and Hoag will meet Olcott. There will be one doubles match.
Spooner Gives up Ghost of Reception Illusion
The old reception hall is gone!
Spooner library no longer furnishes a quiet retreat for the laughter of students, so many years. Its halls are silent and, who knows but that if its walls would give up their secrets that they would not express their regret at having to ask for the students back again?
Every evening in the spring and early fall students flocked to old Spooner and unless you happened to be among the lucky first you failed to be able to find a chair. Perhaps that was why you never did. Students congregated on the steps outside in the hallways or stairs chattering and visiting their hearts' content. Be the cause what it may, when you started up Spooner steps you had the feeling that you had made a mistake and had come, uninvited, to a reception of some sort or a women' afternoon
Such snatches of conversation could be heard from almost any quarter, but some students would read even if it was a current joke for some student to remark. "No, I can't go to the library tonight—I
"Hi, there. Dorothy. Thought you were coming at 7:30."
"Thought I was too, but George called and oh,"—and on and on without a thought of study.
Some of the gavety seems to have been lost in the transfer from Spooner to Watson, for now the library does not furnish it. It is much so much of the "reception" atmosphere as in the former days at Spooner.
The first round of the baseball tournament must be played before May 12, according to G. B. Patrick, intramural athletic manager, this morning, and the second round must be completed before May 14. Schedules for all the games have been posted on the bulletin board in Robinson gymnasium. The coach will supervise the intramural committee. The P. A. D.'s, Kappa Sig's, Deltr Taut' and Aecasia's digs here.
First Round of Baseball Will Be Played May 12
All games except the finals and the semi-finals are to be five innings each. The team must own their own equipment also, according to Mr. Patrick. The games will be played on the intramural field, south of the gymnasium, unless otherwise stated.
Scarab, professional architects fraternity, announces the pledging of Herbert Woodward, c.27.
The Agie skimmer, Shaw, was leading Fisher by only a few inches in the century dash when he pulled in. It it was a pretty race up to this time.
Fisher stepped the 220 yards Saturday in 21.7 seconds which is exceptionally fast considering that he had no competition. Raymond should be pushing this Lucke of Nebraska in the Valley meet.
Sport Notes
Kansas and the Aggies are both strong in the distance event and in the triangular meet with Nebraska May 16, they will be fighting each other instead of cutting down the points of the strong Husker squad.
There is talk about the valley that the double-round-robin-system of playing the basketball schedule will be abandoned by the conference next year. This will very likely strike a serious blow on the interest in basketball has increased many fold since this inaya started was started.
Skilton and Getch Will Play Prof. Charles Skilton and Prof. and Mrs. Waldemar Getch will be guests of honor at the annual banquet of the Kansas City Music Teachers' Association in Kansas City Thursday.
Basketball had not been a paying proposition at this institution until the present system was begun. But basketball now pays its own way and a small surplus is left over for other athletic activities. This state of affairs also holds good for other schools.

The Philadelphia Athletics are still up among the leaders in the American league race. Yesterday, Grabback Jr. scored 14 points, grabbing an inbound, in the box. Connie Mack has been striving since 1914 to build a winning team from youngsters and it looks like he will be able to do that with a bunch that will work together.
Five Nebraska basketball players have been declared ineligible for their variety competition by the Nebraska authorities. It is a hard blow to Cornhusk hopes for next season,
The two professors will also appear on the program, playing Professor Skilton's Somatica for piano and violin. Professor Gelch will play the violin with the composer at the piano. It will be the first time this work by Professor Skilton will be played in Kansas City.
