Kansas Baseball Team Will Begin Indoor Work In Robinson Next Week
Most of Varsity Squad of Last Year and Return of Old Men Strengths Prospects
Candidates for battery positions on the Jayhawker baseball team will report for indoor practice in Robinson Gymnasium the first part of next week. Jay Bond, baseball coach announced today. The battery men will begin work taking easy workouts and tossing the ball around before he is in position by the time out practice begins. The entire Varsity squad will be called for indoor practice about two weeks before the work on McCook Field begins.
"respects are very good for a fas baseball team this year," said the Jay hayker coach. "Most of the Varsity squad of last year will be available and there are several men from the freshman nine of the no-no material." I see no reason why we should not have a real team."
The chances for a winner were increased greatly when "Dutch" Weltmer, catcher on the 1916 team, returned to school and enrolled in the School of Law. Weltmer is eligible and is coming out for baseball. He made a record on the 1916 team, when he caught every innning of the eighteen games played and broke up several of them with his timely hitting.
The return of Weltmer and the fact that the team already has one classy backstep in Johnny Bunn of last year's Varsity insures plenty of strength behind the plate. One of these men may be shifted to another position, as either is too valuable to be kept out of the game.
There is plenty of material in sight to make the pitching staff strong this year. Slawson is the only hurler from the 1918 Varsity in school but Harms, Marxon, Pierce and Harrison of Dutch Wedell's fresh nine are the most class pitchers in the team to make the pitching staff one of the strong points of the team. Harms will also be valuable at first base; as he is an excellent fielder.
The first and second base positions are left open because of the death of "Red" Cherry, 1918 first baseman, and the graduation of Bob Isenberger. Lashley, one of the stars of the freshman infield last year, should fit in well at second base although there is likely to be stiff competition for that position. "Stem" Foster will be back to cover the short field and "Dutch" Lonberg will probably play third base again this year.
One of the troubles may be the securing of enough games to fill out the schedule, but Coach Bond will match contests with Kansas State Conference teams and other fast nines if competition in the Missouri Valley is lacking. It is practically certain that Ames will be the only school in the Valley to have a nine, and the Jayhawkers already have six games
In the outfield, there will be Wardie Weltmer, Bert Smith, Frank Oyster and Guy Keeler from Coach Bond's 1918 nine and Judkins and Desmond and two or three others from the freshmen.

matched with the Iowaans, three here and three at Ames. The Emporia Normal and St. Mary's College always have a schedule, but not all will be inbed on the schedule.
Dutch Wedell, Freshman baseball coach believes the Varsity should clean up in baseball this year. "There is no reason why baseball should not have a big year here," he said. "The game is due to be more popular this year than ever before and we are going to have a good team. The interest and co-operation of the students all we need."

Continued from page 10
"I am interested in this matter, not from a political standpoint, but rather for the good of the school. We are men and women, not children, and we want to be treated in a manner that is fitting to men and women." Kelsey Matthews, Student Council representative from the School of Engineering.
"I believe that if the proposed committee be adopted as the way to settle student affairs satisfactorily, that it have at least final power to act for as a more advisory body to the Senate, it would have little effect. Also it is my belief that part of the students' report will be elective from the students at large." Marvin Harms, Student Council representative from the College.
"Representing the School of Law, I believe I am safe in saying that the entire body of our school does not favor a plan that will not give the Student-Senate Committee the final voice in the matters of student affairs. There should be no appeal from the decisions of this committee and likewise its actions should not be subject to Senate control." Enos E. Hook, Student Council representative from the School of Law.
"If I had my way about it, I would have this committee composed entirely of students. If we don't know how to govern ourselves we have no business in this University." Arthur "Dutch" Lonberg, Student Council representative from the College and president of the Junior class.
"I believe that the woman's representation is too large proportionate to their numbers in normal times. In my opinion the proposed plan not only will not serve the students' best interest, but it also positions the committee positions political plums." Dorman O'Leary, Captain of the Track team.
"An elective body which only advises the University Senate is powerless and ineffective. Any committee representing student and faculty opinion must have the right of final decision to accomplish any real results." "Stem" Foster, Captain of the Football team.
Pool Will Be Shallow Rest of This Quarter
The swimming pool in the gymnasium will be open daily for women's swimming classes. Monday Wednesday and Friday the pool will be open at 10:30 and at 3:30 o'clock; Wednesdays only at 4:30 o'clock. Tuesday and Thursday the pool will be open only at 11:30 o'clock.
The pool will be kept shallow for the first of this quarter to give beginners a chance to learn to swim. Next quarter the water will be deep and practice for the swimming meet will begin. This will be the third annual inter-class swimming meet. The silver loving cup given to the winners by the Athletic Association was won in 1917 and 1918 by the freshmen.
Jayhawkers Resting For Coming Contests With Aggies' Quinter
Lineup That Smashed Missour
Opposition Will Be
Used Again
When the Aggie basketball team comes to Lawrence Thursday for a two-game series, the Jayhawkers will be ready for them. The Kansas quintet has practically finished its preparation for the invasion of the Manhattan basketteers, and there will be no practice tonight. Four hard games with Missouri and Washington-all the workouts the Kansans all the workout they needed, and they are in excellent shape for the coming series.
The Lawrence team will go to Baldwin next month to compete in the District tournament there. The winner of the tournament will compete in the state tournament here March 28-29.
The team promises to exhibit the same form to basketball followers here that they showed on the road trip, as the Varsity team, with Matt thew and Lonborg absent from the lineup, smothered the freshman team, under a big score in Monday night's practice.
Coach Hamilton will probably use the same lineup against the Aggies that he used against the Missouri teams last week.
Grinnell, the new member of the Missouri Valley conference, defeated the Ames basketball team Saturday night in a close game played on the Grinnell court.
Michigan lost to Chicago University in a fast basketball game Saturday night at Ann Arbor by a 25-22. Chicago leads the Big Ten race.
The faculty basketball team has challenged the Sophomore women's team to a game which will be played on Thursday at ccolum. Thursday night at 6:30 ccolum.
Faculty Woman's Team Will Play Sophomores
The faculty team has been practicing several times a week for the last four or five weeks and has developed some fine team work. They lost one game with the junior team which won the 1919 inter-class tournament, by one point. The score was 13 to 12. Also the junior team won their final game in the inter-class tournament from the sophomore team, in fifth place, moves by only one point. Thus the well matched and it will probably be a tosup on who wins the game Thursday night.
The game will be open to University students.
Edison Challenged In 70-Year-Old Meet
Thomas A. Edison, recently 72 years old can hold his hand out straight in front of him and kick it with either foot. Hiram Wallace, a 78-year-old resident of St. Paul, has issued a challenge to the inventor to engage in a high kicking match for the championship in the 70-year-old class. Mr. Wallace believes he can raise the mark several inches.
The 73-year-old St. Paul man is as agile as a K. U. man. He offers to let even the 60-year-old man in on a dumb bell lifting match.
Hard work and plenty of it is his recipe for keeping young. He has never taken medicine in his life.
