Intra-Mural Baseball Will Take Place of Gym
Freshmen and Sophomores May Sign up at Gym for Transfer
Freshmen and sophomores who play on the intra-mural baseball teams will be excused from physical drill for the time in which they are playing baseball, according to an announcement made by the department of physical education today.
Students who have signed up with any team in the Hash-House, Pan-Hellenic, or Inter-fraternity Leagues may transfer from gym classes to baseball at the office on the first floor of the gym. The names turned in for transfer will be checked up with the members of the teams as indicated on the box scores. Each captain must have a complete list of the players under him, and turn it over to George Nettels.
Freshman Class Will Give Annual Frolic Next Month
The freshman class will give its third annual dance, the Freshman Frolic, next month. Appointment of Paul K. Smith as manager of the dance was announced today by-Harley Scott, president of the class.
"The arrangement for the music, the place of the dance, and the date will be announced within a few days," said Smith, chairman of the commit-
Byron Shutz, chairman of the social committee of the freshman class lat quarter left school and will not return until next fall.
"The committee has been considerably handicapped," said Smith, "on account of the uncertainty of Shutz remaining in school and health because other organizations have previously engaged the best dates of the season."
Pauline Newman is chairman of the girls' mixer committee of the freshman class. This committee plan to organize a women's woven date. The date will be announced later.
Opinion Much Divided As to Proper Memorial (Continued from page 1)

save memorial that we could erect. The majority of the University men who have died in service were men who took part in some form of athletics, and if they did not take part, they were keenly interested in the sports. It seems very fitting then that we should have the memorial in some form that represents what the men were interested in.
"Furthermore, the stadium could be a work of art as well as practical. There also is the financial side of the question. A new large stadium would always bring in large revenue and would foster the college athletics. I think athletics are the biggest advertisement a school has and it would certainly raise our standing to have a new stadium and I feel that the boys in whose honor we are building the memorial would want anything that would help the school's reputation."
CHIMES DECLARED SUITABLE
Miss Hannah Oliver, of the department of Latin, has suggested chimes placed in an artistic bell tower. In discussing this form of memorial Miss Oliver said: "The most suitable memorial that could be erected, in my estimation, would be something that is ornate and beautiful, something that is a work of art instead of something practical. We will always be in need of the practical things and if we wait until we have supplied all the things that we need before we get something that is wanted only for its value as a work of art, we never will have anything that will be known for its artistic qualities."
Differences among the students seem to be as numerous as they are among the faculty. Probably the majority of the students are now in favor of some kind of a memorial building, either a stadium or a University Commons. However, some favor the other form of memorial. There are who would like a memorial arch, and others support Miss Oliver's plan for chimes and a bell tower.
Geneva Hunter has expressed herself strongly in favor of Miss Oliver's plan thus: "It would seem very appropriate to me to have chimes for a memorial and have a picturequeen tower built in which to place them. I think they should be played between classes instead of having the whistle that we now have. I also should favor their being played longer at 8:30 and 1:30 o'clock. If the University songs and other collegeairs were played every day, it would help stimulate college spirit."
The question of building a Commons at the University has been discussed for some time and now many are upholding it for the memorial, Edna Burch, a junior in the department of home economics, thinks that a University Commons is the best possible thing that could be built for a memorial. She said: "It seems to me that a University Commons would stimulate the college spirit more than any other memorial that we could erect. We do not have at this University any social center where the students can meet each other in a social way. Most other universities have such a meeting place and we ought not fall behind in our social advantages. Also, the cafeteria should be moved to the Commons. I think that a formal dining room should also be added. This could be used by University organizations for their banquets and at other times regular formal dinners should be served for the students at large in order to give training to students in formal affairs."
"The suggestion of the Stadium as a memorial should be endorsed by every University student," said Jessie Wyatt. "It is not only the most fitting memorial to our heroes, but it would put K. U. on the athletic map, and would influence high school students who are interested in athletics o come to K. U."

Woman's Athletic Associatic Greater Success at K. U. Than Other Schools
Miss Hazel Pratt, Coach of woman's athletics returned Sunday from Chicago where she attended the twenty-third convention of the American Physical Education Association which was held there from Wednesday until Saturday.
A number of the men of the country who are prominent in physical education made speeches at the convention along the various lines of athletic activities. Dr.C.Ward Crampton, formerly from the New York schools but now of Battle Creek, Mich., and Dr.J.H. McCurdy of Springfield, Mass., one of the foremost leaders in physical education in this country, made talks. Dr.McCurdy is head of the Springfield Training School, the school which Dr. James Naismith was attending when he invented basketball.
Major Gen. Leonard Wood gave an address on the "Correlation of Military Training and Physical Education." There was quite a heated discussion between the representatives of the physical education department and the military authorities over "What effect has the present form of military training in high schools had upon physical training and athletics in these schools?"
On Friday morning there was a meeting for the women at the convention of which Dr. Annie Norris had charge. Problems which arise among women in high schools and colleges
were discussed. Miss Pratt made a talk at this meeting in which she explained how the Women's Athletic Association is conducted at the University of Kansas. She told of the large membership at K.U. and of the various activities carried on by the organization. The Women's Athletic Association is successful in the university and successful in the University of Kansas than it is in a good many other colleges, according to reports made by delegates at the convention.
Demonstrations of work of formal gymnastics planned by the Association were given for the benefit of the delegates. Also plays and games and dancing were demonstrated by the children from the Chicago park systems.
Spooner Library Receives 1,000 Rare Volumes
"The Library of the University has been enriched recently by the addition of a generous collection of books from the library of the late Senator Preston B. Plumb," Miss Carrie Watson, announced today. "This collection consists of about one thousand volumes, mastly official documents and governmental reports, many of them of great value and rarity. The volumes are substantially and attractively bound in three-quarter brown morecoe. They will prove to be of especial value to research students of American history and politics."
"The University is a debtor to the members of Senator Plumb's family for this very noteworthy gift.
"Senator Plumb's memory is secure in the minds of all Kansans, but these valuable volumes will serve to keep alive his memory in the minds of the younger generation of students."14
Coach Hamilton Orders "K" Sweaters for 148
No "K" sweaters have been awarded in the last three years to Varsity men, but the fault will soon be remilled. Coach Hamilton ordered 148 sweaters with the letter "K" six weeks ago. Owing to the fact that the stripes must be worn in the sleeve, and the sweaters specially made, delivery has been slow, but the sweaters are expected soon. The sweaters will be sent to the winners by mail, if they have left the University since they won the honor.
Few of the lowerclassmen in the University have seen a "K" sweater to know it. The sweaters are gray, coat-style, with a red letter of different styles for the different forms of athletics. The service stripes are red circles around the left sleeve, one for each year on the varsity.
Troubled Students Find Surcease from Sorrow
Go to Haunts Untrampled by Professors — Nature Proves Healer
When the words in your text book begin to play hide-and-seek and ene by making a jumbled, unintelligible mass- do not blame your eyes, the trouble is not with them- it is the Call of the Wild inviting you into the great out-of-doors.
From the time the first che-wink of the Cardinal is heard and the air becomes fragrant with the freshness of growin green things, this call comes to every nature lover.
Study is impossible—the only logical thing to do is to obey the call—choose congenial friends, who, like yourself, are nature-lovers, and make preparations for a hike or picnic.
Cameron's Bluc is an ideal place for a steak roast—If you walk you will, find yourself quite ready for luncheon when you have reached your destination. The fresh pungent odor of the camp fire over which weiners or marshmallows can be roasted, the exhilarating air, the laughter and song of your friends as they gather around the fire, act as a stimulant to tired nerves. All thoughts of crabby professors and hard studies are lost, and you are thrilled by the very joy of living.
Blue Mound and Woodland Park are other points held in favor by many hikers, and if you have a love for historical places or if you happen to be a man in mourning because some one else has your best girl, or if you are one of the women who called up for having mid-week dates, you will find the old Quantrell Cemetery a place to satisfy your historical taste. The men in mourning and the mid-week daters can bury their grief beside the graves of those who fell in a previous and more notable raid.
But perhaps the best trip of all is up the river in a canoe. The combined effects of the trip on the water, a good lunch when you reach the island, the cosy fire on the sand and at last, to that down the river when the moon begins to rise, gives you a feeling of being in heaven. On the bank the frogs and crickets join in their evening chant, the water ripples and laps against the shore; now an then a sleepy bird calls, and perhaps a ukelele tinkles farther up the stream—that is the life worth living.
