Full Squad Formation For Football Practice Is Expected Out Today
Rules Subject to Military
Questions of Eligibility and for Freshman Team, Not Yet Determined
Football practice is expected to begin with a full squad this afternoon and each afternoon from 4:30 o'clock to 6 o'clock is to see at least one squad, probably several squads, on the gridirons. On the squares are other men of the team that pour over the other men of the S. A. T. G after regular mess begins.
Football rules and regulations are pretty much up in the air despite a meeting of the Missouri Valley Conference Saturday in Kansas City. The team, which solved to ask the S. A. T. C. authorities for further light on college sports and to have left the matter apart. Apparently none of the University's teams were advised that the meeting was to be held and none was present.
SPORTS UNDER ARMY RULE
Whether the same eligibility rules will be adhered to has not been determined; some statements have not adhered to such collegiate rules and have played games with colleges because of the colleges waiving the rules. Whatver rules Capt. B. T. Scher, commanding the S. A. T. C. here, be admitted to the University, Chancellor Strong and Manager W. O. Hamilton have decided.
Mr. Hamilton believes at least two squads will be on the field this week. Ivan "Humpty" Wilson, letter man in the varsity team, was assigned as assistant coach or for a position corresponding to freshman coach. Whether or not there will be a freshman team or whether freshmen can participate, Varsity team has not been determined.
No captain has been named for the team. It is expected a captain will be elected as soon as the team is formed. "Scrubby" laslett, this year's captain, is playing a much bigger quarter than the second quarter on last year's team, and Arthur Lonberg, another veteran, are being mentioned for captain.
Coach Bond has been endeavoring to whip a lineup into shape, but the organizing of the S. A. T. C. units and other necessary work has interfered with practice. A number of the men took advantage of the short leave given last week to visit their homes and thus cut down the squad.
Band Training Section May be Placed Here
A band training section of two hundred men may be established under the S. A. T. C. organization at the University. The University has volunteered its services in training army bandmen and the War Department to train students. University has a reputation for turning out good student bands and it is considered probable the War Department will take advantage of this fact.
Equipment in 3 Cars Arrives for Barracks
Six of the eight barracks being erected on Mississippi Street are under roof, the frame work of the seventh is up and timbers of the eighth are being put into place. The first two barracks are almost finished and it is believed the men will begin moving in this week, if the influx of women students drives many of them from the boarding houses.
Doors and windows for the barracks have not arrived, although they are expected on every train. Three express cars loaded with bedding, shoes, uniforms and other equipment came in Sunday and army motor trucks were put to work unloading them immediately.

Hostess House Makes Ready To Serve Cheer and Food To S.A.T.C.
Cafeteria and Lounging Rooms Will be Open Next
Week
Picture a uniformed man sitting "comfy" before a blazing fireplace busy with nothing but an ample plate of hot biscuit and honey or hot cakes that rival Aunt Jemima and you will know what is going on at the University Y. W. Hostess House after this week.
The cafeteria will be open every day from 5:30 o'clock in the afternoon until 7:30 o'clock and the menus will vary with specials, sandwiches, plate dinners and hot drinks. Small tables can also be placed in a room placed by the many windows. Arrangements can be made for family parties.
With ten soldiers detailed by Lieut. T. G. Fotz to assist in the installation of equipment and the latest thing in steaming tables, the work necessary to complete one of the finest cafeterias in Kansas will be finished this week. The entire second floor of the building used by Prof. Elizabeth Sprague of the department of home economics and her assistants to serve food to members of S. A. T. C., their families and friends and University students.
The large meeting room and writing room of the Hostess House on the main floor has been brightened with cretone curtains and refinished wood floors. The most portable chairs make the unusually large room attractive. There is a rousing fire going in the corner fireplace and plenty of wood, for several soldiers were detailed to bring a truck load of drift wood from the river last week and there is a promise the wooden pile will never become small.
A rest room has been arranged for women children. There are many lounges and chairs.
