Coach Bond Calls Men For First Varsity Try-out
Battery Candidates Working Out Every Day — Ready for Outdoor Work
Baseball practice for every man who expects to try out for a position on the Varsity team has been called by Coach Jay Bond for Wednesday afternoon in Robinson gymnasium between 2:30 and 4 o'clock. The practice was originally intended only for battery candidates on the Varsity, but owing to the fact that all the men will begin outdoor practice soon, Coach Bond thought it would be better to let the infielders and outfielders get into shape early, as there was plenty of room in the gym.
The battery candidates are working every day and expect to be ready when the call comes for the beginning of outdoor workouts. This call will begin immediately after the man returns from their vacations, the kaywhaker coach said today.
Although Dutch Wedell, freshman coach, will probably work out with the Varsity candidates indoors, he made it very plain today that the candidates for positions on the freshman team would not report for indoor practice in the gymnasium. But the first team would be made about the same time the Varsity begins outdoor workouts on McCook field.
K. U. Five to End Season With Schmeltzers' Game
Banquet and Election of Captain to Follow Contest in Kansas City
The Jayhawkers will finish their basketball season Saturday night when they meet the Kansas City Schmelzers on the Convention Hall court in Kansas City. The Schmelzers have one of the best篮球 teams in the country, having been the only team to win frostbite in St. Louis and the Nation five, and the Kansas quintet will probably meet more than its match.
But the Jayhawkers should give the Kansas City team a hard battle. The Lawrence high school team may play the Schmelzer lightweights in a preliminary game.
After the game Saturday, Coach Hamilton will take his squad to either the Hotel Baltimore or to the Coatte House for the annual banquet, at which time the captain of the 1920 team will be elected. The captainy lies between John Bunn, star forward, and Howard Miller, also a forward.
Both men are juniors and excellent basketball players, although for some reason Miller did not play regularly. Bunn played in every game and proved one of the main factors in keeping the Kansas team as high in the Valley race as it was.
Qualities of Different Trees Discussed by Fern Shick
The relative qualities of the ash, sycamore, and hackberry trees was the subject discussed by Fern Shick at the meeting of the Botany Club last night. Lantern slides were used showing the hackberry tree growing as far west as Hays City, and the ash trees well shown. This talk proved interesting and was very well handled.
The kind of tree to be planted in the "Hero Grove" was also discussed. It was decided to plant only one kind of tree besides the Washington elms which have been ordered from Cambridge. The Washington elms are expected soon so that they may be planted on Arbor Day. After the discussion, refreshments were served and a social time enjoyed.
Austin, Walter Hastings, Perkins, Divinity, Craigie, and Russell nails are soon to be abandoned by the Harvard Naval Radio School and returned to the University. These buildings are now being evacuated of men, or clothing, as the case may be, and will again be at the disposal of the university as soon as they are empty. The Weld boathouse is also soon to be taken to the other Memorial Hall, the Hennaway Gymnasium, and the other buildings now occupied by the radio school, will not be released from service until the radio school is moved to the Great Lakes training center.

Barracks No. 1 a Race Track
Barracks No. 1 has been put to practical use by the department of physical training as a race track. Hardies and other equipment have been installed and the men are practicing every afternoon in preparation for the Missouri Valley meet. It has been found that Barracks No. 1 furnishes a good place for a straight track since the length of 150 feet can be utilized. The length of the run provided for in the gymnasium for practice is considerably shorter.
Three Kansas Athletes Play With 89th Division
Former Camp Funston Division Team Has Chance at A.E.F. Championship
In a letter received here recently from Agro Nelson, a University of Wisconsin student with the 89th Division in the Army of Occupation in Germany, the football team of the 89th is reported to have beaten the team of the 9th Division at Marburg, Germany. The next game will be played at Collenz for the championship of the Army of Occupation. If this game is won by the former Camp Funston division, the team will go to Paris to play for the championship of the A. E. F.
This team is practically the same team that dampened expectations of the all-star Great Lakes team in Kansas City a year ago last December, Withington, former Harvard star and football coach at Wisconsin, is the star of the team.
Nelson says that he has met many K. U. men with the division and that he likes them so well when he returns to "the States" he is coming to attend K. U. The K. U. men on the first team are "Potas" Clark, former Kansas coach, and Adrian Lindsey, former Kansas half back and Captain, and "Scrubby" Laslett, captain-elect of this year's football and basketball teams, end. "Jick" Fast, former Kansas half back, is in the backfield of one of the other teams.
Profs. Must Sign Roll To Get Monthly Pay
Perchance some member of the University faculty will forget to sign the payroll and so save a little money for the state. In the old days signing the payroll was the thrill that came once a month. No publicity was given the University budget and the only way they could receive it was how much Professor Smith received for his services was by a sly look down the pages of the payroll.
Now the white light of publicity has been given to everybody's salary and the old payroll was in obscurity for several years. But the state has revived the old custom and now in all places the instructor and professor has to walk over to Fraser and sign his name on the big sheet.
Why the revival, no one knows. It may be a cunning device to save money for the state, since curiosity linger lend interest to the proceeding.
Texas:—Visual appeal is to be made to the lure of state schools. The University of Texas is the second institution of its kind to organize a moving picture film circuit for education. A project called the project will be put into operation next fall.

Oklahoma-- Washington's Birthday was celebrated by a unique function at Oklahoma State University. The students men gave a father and son banquet. The tables were set in the gymnasium and the banquet was served by the Home' Economics class, dressed in white caps and aprons.
Four of the best athletes demonstrated their excellent training and much practice, by stunts. The assembly then returned to the auditorium where a well prepared program was rendered, after which the audience rose and joined in singing: "Keep The Home Fire Burns."
Mine Rescue Apparatus Demonstrated to Class
Representative of U, S. Bureau of Mines Visits University
Campus
Artificial breathing apparatus was demonstrated to the mining students by G. W. Riggs, of the United States Bureau of Mines at Pittsburgh, today at 11:30 o'clock and at 4:30 o'clock in Room H, Saworth Hall.
Three years ago when the government sent a mine rescue car here to train students in first aid and mine rescue all the apparatus used was of foreign manufacture, chiefly German. Since then a strictly American apperatus which is a great improvement over the German devices, has been perfected.
The Gibbs apparatus is the work of American engineers and American workmen. It is manufactured in the Edison factory at Owens, N. J. and is owned and controlled by the U. S. Bureau of Mines. It is virtually an improved gas mask. The chief feature of the Gibbs apparatus over those of English and German manufacture is the automatic reducing valve which provides the wearer with the exact amount of oxygen needed at the time. By this device a man can live in any atmosphere while doing strenuous work for two hours and forty-five minutes, at the usual rate work for rescue work for three and four hours. At quietly waiting rescue, he can live for ten and one half hours. The apparatus weighs thirty-six and one half pounds and is priced at $175.00.

In the Greatest Drama of Her Career
"EYE for EYE"
The story is a thrilling one of Oriental love and hate—depicting the two strongest motives in these fiery and passionate people of the East—where a human life means nothing in comparison with a traditional inheritance.
Hassouna, the beautiful Arabian girl, born and bred in the desert falls in love with a French Naval officer whom she helps to escape from her tribe who intend to kill him. This brings the wrath of her people directly on the head of the girl and she is left to die in the blazing desert. The story is one of passionate hate and passionate love, and is more entrancing than any tale ever told. Be sure to see this wonderful actress in this tremendous production.
