Track Men Speeding Up For Aggie Indoor Meet And K. C. A. C. Contest
Fifty Men Are Working Now To Meet Manhattan February 17
Five Letter Men Are Back
Other Men Are Showing Up Well, Says Coach Hamilton. Delighted
About fifty track men are working out every afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium for the indoor meet with the Kansas Aggies at Manhattan, February 17. The Aggie indoor meet was scheduled to take place here, but the dates were reversed and the meet changed to Manhattan. The outdoor dual with the Aggies will be here May 2, the day before the state high school meet on McCook Field.
The annual K. C. A. C. meet is scheduled for March 8, in Convention Hall at Kansas City, Coach W. O. Hamilton will send a team to this meet as usual and will have a tryout a few days before to pick the team. Freshmen who show ability will be sent to the meet unattached. Coach Hamilton has asked Lewis W. Shouse, manager of Convention Hall, for a date for the annual Kansas-Missouri indoor meet but has not heard from Mr. Shouse. The big indoor meet is generally held about March 15, and will probably take place within a few days of that date this year.
Kansas has five letter men in school who are eligible for track, including "Dummy" O'Leary. The others are Ralph Rodkey, quarter-miler and
broad jumper; Lorin Dewall, a miler who showed promise last year; Marshall Haddock, who placed third in the pentathlon at the Penn Relay games last spring and who was one of the best all around athletes in the Valley; and Marcus Hanna, a member of the cross county team and a two-miler. Coach Hamilton will be out for the team soon, although he has not yet worked out with the men. O'Leary is the best quarter miler in the Valley.
Other men who are showing up well are Charley Heizer, pole-vaulter; Jackson, a sophomore and former Westport High Schoo1 hurler; Chandler, a freshman from Westport, who is one of the best pole-vaulters in school, and Roy Pringle of Harveyville, a freshman who won individual honors in the state high school meet here last spring. Pringle is an all-around athlete but specializes in throwing the weights.
K.U. Men Realize Value Of Physical Education
Fewer Men Than Women Seek Exemption From
Every dollar extended on the S.A. T.C. was well spent, if for no other reason than the understanding it gave the young men and the general public, of the value of physical education is the opinion of W. O. Hamilton of the department of physical education.
some for time spent in work. A greater interest in the gymnasium work seems to be shown by the men especially in boxing classes. The board of exemption for men has not met to pass upon those claims which have been asked.
This theory is shown in the few exemptions asked for in the department among the men, approximately only one fourth as many men have applied for exemptions as in the second semester last year. A few ask exemption for physical disability, and
The exemptions asked by the women students of the department is much larger than in previous years, due in part to the after effects of the influenza, according to Dr. Goetz, head of the department of women's physical training. The influenza often leaves the heart in a weakened condition, making it impossible to take the extra exertion of entensified gymnasium work, she said.
saint The percentage of women who work their way partially or wholly through school applying for exemption is much smaller than heretofore.
The green and yellow caps of the freshman have appeared at the Colorado State College of Agricultural and Mechanical Art.

Plymouth Jottings
Can you tell a Presbyterian from a Methodist? How do you do it?
Would you go out to convert a Chinese to the gospel of the particular Protestant sect in America to which you belong? Or would you be content if you made a Christian out of him?
You may not go to the Far East.
You may be teaching in some little town in Kansas. Will you be helping to perpetuate the lines of cleavage between two or more competing little churches? Or are you going to throw in your lot toward the success of the community church?
The future of the church in Amериca depends pretty largely on you. If you ignore it, it will have to struggle along as best it can without you. If you contribute to it whatever of vision and of faith you may possess, it will be just that much richer.
Are you likely to be a better church goer away from Lawrence than you are here? Were you at church last Sunday? If not, why not begin next Sunday?
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.
Yours very cordially.
