Baseball Men Prepare For Opening Contests On Kansas Schedule
Haskell Indians will Open Season on McCook Field April 15
Varsity baseball candidates have been working on McCook and Hamilton Fields this week in preparation for the opening games of the season, and the line-up is beginning to take form. About twenty candidates have been reporting for practice and Coach Bland will probably pick his line-up early next week, as the first game of the season, with the Haskell Indians will be played on McCook Field or April 15.
Prospects for a winning nine took a decided jump Monday when Captain "Stem" Foster, shortstop on last year's team, appeared for practice for the first time and announced that he had arranged his work so he could report regularly. Milner, a new candidate for the infield, showed real form in the shortstop position and may plug a hole in the inner defense, although it appears now that there will be a wealth of good material for field. Lashley worked out at third base, Milner was at shortstop, Oswald was at second and Frederick played first. But there are several other likely candidates, including Fosse himself, who will probably play some infield position, and Dutch Lonborg, who played third base last year. Bunn could also be used in the infield and Pierce can play first base if necessary.
There are several good ball player out for outfield positions. Smith is a likely candidate for a regular berth in the outer works, and Oyster and Keeler, letter men from last year's nine, are again out. Vermillion and Judkins, from last year's freshman team, are out for the outfield, and several other candidates have been showing up well. If necessary, some of the infielders can be shifted to the outfield.
Weltmer has been working as the chief receiver, and his hitting and throwing will add strength to both the offensive and defensive. Bunn is also a good backstop and could be used behind the bat at any time, but he is too valuable to be kept on the bench, since the team already has one first string catcher.
The pitching staff will be much stronger this year than last, and bids fair to carry its share of the burden. Harms and Pierce, the left-handers, have been showing form, although they have not attempted to put touch stuff on the ball, and Marxen and Slawson, the right-handers, have been throwing to batters regularly and are in good shape for the opening of the season.
Ten games have already been scheduled with college and university teams and others will be booked soon. Haskell and William Jewell will be played before the opening of the Missouri Valley season and games may be scheduled with St. Mary's and the Emporia Normals. The Ames Aggries and the Kansas Aggies will each play four games in the Missouri Valley schedule, although none of these Valley contests will be played before next month.
Engineers Effect Reforms to Beautify Campus
No longer will engineering students cut across the campus in front of Marvin Hall in their hurry to get to classes. A wire was strung around the lawn Saturday by King Adams, janitor, and now the walks are being used again.
"The civils planted grass seed last year and we intend to sow more this year to get the bare spots sodded," said Cecil Hewg, e19.
Another reform in the parking of cars in front of the School of Engineering is being carried out. Owners are requested to park their cars on the north side of the campus street, not on the south as they have been.
Now that all restrictions have been removed, we are back on the old basis in the manufacture of pure pasturized cream. We make a special rate for clubs, sororities and fraternities. For further information call Wiedemanns. Phone 182-Adv.

form of exercise," said Coach Hazel
Pratt, "and is especially good as a
spring sport." The big meet will be

May and work for that will begin next
Monday. At that time the pool will
be filled—there has been only four
four feet of water in it to up this time. The
class in diving will be at 4:30 every
Wednesday. All organizations which

intra-mural meet, which will be held
after the class meet, should see that
the women come out for practice.
