Kansas Sees Bright Outlook on Gridiron For Season of 1919
Practically All of 1918 Players and New Stars Expected On Campus
Pringle Out for Captain
Strong Competition Expected for Various Positions—Substitutes Plentiful
With practically the entire 1910 football team planning to return to school next fall, and several stars who are now in the service almost sure to come back, prospects for a Missouri Valley football championship in 1910 are brighter than they have been for several years. Captain-elect Scrubby Laslett of this year's team, who is in France in the tank corps will probably be back. George Nettels, All-Valley tackle last year is scheduled to return next fall, as is Warren Woedy, who was a star at right guard for two years prior to his enlistment in naval aviation. These three men were on the All-Valley teams last year. Pete Jones, star tackle and honor Valley man, is not in K. U. this quarter but will enroll here next fall and come out for his old position in the line. Jones is one of the best linemen in the Valley and good on both offensive and defensive play. Basil Church will make a good mate for Jones as the big fellow recently returned from Iowa City where he was a licutenant in the S. A. T. C. Church was one of the best men on the Bond队 in 1917 and measured more than 185 pounds. He made good on the fresh squad here and the fresh squad at Baker. Both Jones and Churches are Juniors this year.
TWO STRONG GUARDS IN SIGHT
"Red" Desmond and Marxen, sophomores, are a pair of guards that are hard to equal. Frank Marxen played at tackle this season but will probably be shifted to guard to make room for Church next fall. MacLeod is a sophomore and will be back for center. James Mott may go to Rosedale, but he can come down to Lawrence for the games. He is the better of the two K. U. centers. Mott is an old Baker star and all-state man.
Arthur "Dutch" Lonberg and Banta are juniors and will be back for the end positions. Lonberg is the class of the Valley at end. If Scrubby Laslett returns for next fall K. U. will have the best ends in the Valley. With Church, Desmond, Marxen, Mott, Jones, Laslett and Lonberg in the line Kansas will have a powerful defense and a line that will make the Valley backs get away fast to make a gain.
Loren Simons and Walters of Lawrence will be back for halves. Both are fair players but did not get into all of the games this year. John Bunn and Mirl Ruble were the two most consistent backs this season. All except Ruble are juniors. Ruble is in the Medical School at Rosedale.
PRINGLE OUT FOR CAPTAIN
Tom Fringle, one of the most foured halves in the Valley the two years he played here will be back to complete his law course next fall. Tom is the person of the halves in the Valley he will be out for the first practice next fall. Tom will be a candidate for the captaincy of the team for next year as he is a veteran and a leader.
"Stem" Foster is eligible for another year at quarter by reason of the decision of the Valley coaches to call this a "blank year" in athletics. Stem is the best quarter in the Valley, and won the Argie game for his this season. The other teams on Ovaldeo will sophomore and will be baskets for full back. Heitner got well this fall, although it was him first in K. U. Varsity athletics.
Foster, Pringle, Rubie, Heizer are four excellent backs and Manager Hamilton will still have Simons, Bunn and Walther for reliefs.
With the return of these men Kansas will have a real team with enough real substitutes to stick out and win any game. Next year will probably be the banner year for Kansas in football circles. The games. The games. played next year, the county made up games this season. Big home games will be the Aggies, Oklahoma and Missouri. Ames and Nebraska will be played at their gridirons.
Kansas men will be out for foot ball early this spring and Coach Bond will teach the men the Valley style of play and any new plays he may devise this winter for the men.

Sport Beams
Forrest De Bernardi, center on the fast Schmelzer basketball team in Kansas City and former Northeast high school star, has been elected captain of his team for this year. The Schmelzers have an all-star aggregation, having recently piloted up more than 90 points against Lee's Summit, Milton Singer, a freshman at the University of Missouri last quarter scored twenty-four goals from the field.
The Missouri Tigers got a good start in the Missouri Valley basketball race when they won two games from the Ames Aggies at Columbia. Captain Ruby of the Tigers was the individual star of the series, ably assisted by Vogt, the lanky Missouri center and a letter man two years ago. Levsen, who played short-stop, on the Ames basball team last year, is now playing center for the Aggie pintet.
The Kansas Aggies also showed class in defeating the Washburn college five at Manhattan by a 36-20 score. The Aggies have three letter men on their team, including Hinds, the scrappy forward, and John Clarke, All Valley guard last year, and should cut some figure in the Valley race. Lindell, Former Topeka High School star forward, is mainstay of the Washburn team.
The University of Missouri basketball team outplayed and easily defeated the Ames five at Columbia last week in the first series of games in the Valley. The Kansas Aggies started with a victory over Washburn. From advance depo the Aggies and Tigers will have the best opposition in the Valley. The Aggies and Tigers 'urnished Kansas top-notch exeitenent last season.
Team Leaves Tonight For Basket Ball Games With the Iowa Aggies
Coach Hamilton Will Take Seven Men on First Trip of Season
The University basketball team will leave tonight at 8:40 a'clock for Ames, Iowa, to play a two-game series with the Iowa Aggies there. Coach Hamilton and seven men are making the trip.
John Bunn is going at top speed at left forward and is working well with Harmas at the other position. Harmas's height and passing is working well with Bunn's speed and good shooting ability. Matthews at center is in good shape and his throwing off gives the Kansas forwards a good opportunity for team work.
Roy Bennett is playing at floor guard in good fashion, and his speed and basket totsing fits in well with the work of the team. Mason at the other guard position has proved his ability, and his size and speed enables him to break up his opponent's plays with regularity. Lonborg is an excellent man at either forward or guard, and works well in either position. Marxen who also plays guard, is improving rapidly and makes a formidable back-guard because of, his size.
The games with Ames will give Coach Hamilton a line on his men, and also what the chances of Kansas are with Missouri. Ames gave Missouri a good run in their series of last week, and a double victory by Kansas means a good chance at the Valley title. However, Washington University, the Kansas Aggies, and Nebraska are unknown quantities, and a
comparative rating of the teams at this early date is impossible. The Kansas, Aggies may be counted on for a strong team, and Washington's surprise in football last fall may be duplicated in basketball.
Women Have Made Good In Men's Jobs on Hill
Have the women in the University of Kansas been successful in holding men's jobs? Yes, very much so, according to the opinion of the people under whom they are employed.
Women have made good as laboratory assistants and dispensers in the department of Chemistry. They will be retained the remainder of the quarter and next quarter if the men wish to have their jobs back they will have to compete with the women. It will be a question of the best person for the job; not the preference of women, the chemistry professors say.
Says
Are More Resilient to the Eye in Offices, Registrar
In the clerical positions in the University the women have been entirely successful The registrar's office presumes women to men. They are more restful to the eye, the Registrar says. The business office has filled its vacancies with men, not in preference to women, however.
Pauline Fuls announces her withdrawal from the Popularity Contest.
In the university restaurants where women have been employed during the absence of the men they have been competent and would be employed in preference to the men if the hours were not so long and the work so heavy.

NAZIMOVA is the new screen sensation; she is totally different from any other screen star. She is life itself in her movements; she is a living, breathing, palpitating figure of animation and power, the most alive figure on the screen today. Not only is Nazimova a great artist of the stage, one of the most celebrated in the world: perhaps second only to Bernhardt with the advantage of being young, but she appeals to the masses and is not over the heads of the theatre patrons.
