Forty Men Turn Out In First Gym Practice For K. U. Basket Bal
Marked Ability Shown by Some of Candidates for Team
The Kansas basketball squad had a good workout at the gym last night and the new men were taught the art of passing and the first principles of floor work. About forty men came out for the team and several men showed ability to handle the ball.
Gross and Turner are two good men from Kansas City and look promising already. Turner has played with Poly Tech at Kansas City. Young, an Emporia Normal football man looks like material for the team. Gardner of Arkansas City is a good first year man and knows the game. Sloner is out and should make a good center. Bunn and Matthews are the two old men working out and both are good floor men and good shots. Mason, football end, will be out for the team this week.
Coach Hamilton will go to Kansas City Friday to attend the meeting of the Valley coaches and arrange a schedule for the Kansas team this season. Lonberg may be back for the team. "Dutch" played in part of the games here last year, and should make the team easily this season. The team will be able to get real practice next week after the S. A. T. C. companies finish with their farewell dances. At present the floor is in poor condition.
Dobson and Schellenbear have returned to the University of Nebraska and will strengthen the Husker team in their game with the Washington Pilkers next Saturday.

The Aggies will start basketball practice as soon as the S. A. T. C. men are quartered in theAggie Gym move out. Coach Clevenger expects to hold his first practice Monday.
The fraternity men are considering inte-fraternity basketball and baseball. It is a good move according
to Frank Parker, head of the Kznas
Y. M. C. A.
The Kansas City Highs will start practice this week. Central high has started already and has two letter men back.
Daily Gym Work Begins For Men Not in S.A.T.C.
Regular gymnasium work for men not in the S. A. T. C. began this morning at 10:45 o'clock. Kenneth Bell is in charge, teaching straight floor work.
There will be regular work from now on, classes at 10:45, 2:50 and 3:45 o'clock daily. As soon as the S. A.T. C. is entirely discontinued, those men will begin regular gym also.
Physical examinations have not been given as yet. Men did not have to enroll for the work today, as their previous enrollments of the first of the term held good.
First Workouts Start For Indoor Track Men
Indoor track work for members of last years team will begin tomorrow. Dewall and Rodkey, distance men, and Duff, hurdler and dash man, will start taking regular workouts at that time.
Not much is known of most of the men with whom Coach Hamilton will work this year. Among the new men there should be abundance of good material, but that will be for the future to disclose.
Actual practice, with regular hours and training, will not begin for most of the men until after Christmas and when the new quarters is well started.
Tom Pringle Visits Campus
Tom Pringle, Kansas half the last
two seasons, is visiting with the
Kappa Sigma fraternity this week.
Pringle has been attending an officers'
training camp at Camp Joseph E.
Johnson at Jacksonville, Fla., and
had an offer of a commission or
honorable discharge and took the latter.
Pringle coached the officers' team and
played half back. He will be back in
school next fall but will be out the
rest of this year.

Men Will No Longer Sneak Up Back Way
It won't be long, girls, till they commence coming up the front way instead of slipping in from the rear. The college men come up the Hill these days back of Green Hall, the medics climb up the slope in the rear of the Museum, and the engineers go up the long inline slanting toward the Ad building. But it won't be long till they don citizen's clothes again and come promenading up past the bulletin boards.
The street address of the student soldiers will change before many days from Mississippi Street to Kentucky or Tennessee or Ohio. Then you'll see them as usual, hurrying up the Hill two minutes before the whistle blows, groups of them, some mixed in with the lonely co-eds who have filled the walks past the library and the Museum all year.
The many paths across the golf links will be forgotten, except for a few lone-wandering studes. The steps coming up behind Green Hall will be used by the minority living on Mississippi Street, and only a few will scramble up the grassy bank by the Museum.
Y. W. Meeting Tuesday
Y. W. Meeting Tuesday
“Does Prayer Work?” was discussed at the regular Y. M.C. A. meeting Tuesday, by Dr. Arthur Braden. This is the third of his series of four talks for Y. W. meetings.
Mis Katharine Duffield, secretary of the Y. W., spoke before the lecture on the meaning of membership in the association. The membership campaign started Tuesday and all new students and all women who were not members of the Y. W. last year were asked to sign the membership cards. During the week of the membership campaign every woman in K. U. will be urged to join the association.
Florence Butler presided at the meeting and Helen Weed sang “One Sweetly Solemn Thought,” accompanied on the pipe-organ by Olive Creek.

Notwithstanding The Fact
CLOTHES WILL BE HIGHER.
Manufacturers at Convention Estimate a 25 Per Cent Increase.
CLEVERLAND, O. Nov. 30 - The National Association of Cloak and Suit Manufacturers closed a 2-nay convention here today. The federal government probably will decide early next week on a policy of releasing its holdings of several hundred million pounds of wool which it has controlled since the United States entered the war, according to Harry S. New of Cleveland, vice-president of the association.
Manufacturers believe that prices of suits and cloaks for next spring and fall may be 25 per cent higher than in 1918, due to the increased cost of operating expenses.
