But that's not the best of it. all free absolutely. BAKER SENDS TWENTY-FIVE There’s to be no admission. It’s all free—absolutely! Twenty-five members of the Baker varsity squad, led by their coach Carl Schladman, will arrive in Lawrence about three o'clock Monday. They will make the trip from Baldwin in automobiles, and the local Elks Club is making arrangements to entertain them while they are there. Probably be given in honor of the Bakerties at the close of the seminare. A LIST OF PLAYERS WILL SEE K. U. DEFENSE The interest thing about the clash between the two teams will be the showing the varsity is expected to make against strange opposition. Though the freshmen oppose the varsity nightly, their playing must necessarily be like that of the regular. This is what the coaching systems used by Coaches Olcott and McCarty. The Baker team, however, will doubtless have a style of lay much different from that of the Jayhawkers; and both teams will gain considerable practical knowledge from the mixup. Kansas, for the this year, will play a defensive game during part of the scrimmage. For the convenience of Kansan subscribers who wish to attend the scrimmage Monday, and who might be unable to distinguish the Jayhawk players, a list of the numbers worn by the K. U. varsity is given below: "These numbers are not the permanent ones, however," warns Manager W. O. Hamilton. "They are old numbers, many men are used in past years. There is, consequently, some duplication. We shall give the men new jerseys and new numbers for the opening game with the Normals." Following is the list Following is the list: 1—Gregory 16—Fostill 4—Ruble 19—Woolgill 5—Ellison 20—Woody 7—Todd 20—R. Ruble 6—Lattett 21—Neilson 7—L, Hull 22—Fiske 9—Russell 23—Wilbur 11—Arnold 25—Tad Reid 12—Burton 27—Kabler 12—Frost 28—Burkholder 13—Lindsey 32—Dennis 14—Harte 36—Palkowsky TENNIS TOURNEY MONDAY The following players have no numbers on their jerseys: Speed man Matt Krause, Dee Harold Shelley, C. K. Reed Humpson Wilson and Bennie Arnold. Annual All-University Play to Open Racquet Season More than twenty men have entered the first annual all-school tennis tournament which begins Monday on the McCook Court. Among the entries are eight faculty tennis stars she coached. The team also encourages tennis in the University an to promote athletic relations between students and faculty. The promoters say that better tennis experience is gained in tournament play than in any other way. Competition in the tournament will be keen because of the cups offered by the Athletic association. Everyone interested is urged to enter the tournament. Contestants should file their names with Prof Arthur Mitchell at the University Club or with E.S. Cowgill at the Sigma Chi house. Manager Hamilton promises that the courts will be in first class shape. For the first time, the seven Missouri Valley conference colleges are operating under similar eligibility rules this year. Heretofore, the requirement as to the number of hours which an athlete must make in the competition is to his competitor's varied. Now the requirement is uniform, and the number depends upon the department in which the athlete is enrolled. The Sigma Kappa sorority today announced the pledging of Eileen Van Sandt of Chanute and Irene Cutter of Lawrence. MEN ON BORDER STAND POOR CHANCE TO RETURN The K. U, boys of the Kansas National Guard can, not possibly return from the border earlier than October 15 Dr. J, A. Naimsith said today.

GIVE ADVANCE STANDING Students From Many Institutions Transfer Here The number of students at the University last year who were given credit for advanced standing from other schools of the country was 220. They came from eighty-five different institutions. Kansas universities had the most of this number but all sections of the country were represented. Kansas State Normal leads in the number of students who transferred here last year with twenty-seven; Washburn College, seventeen; Kansas State Agricultural College, fifteen; Baker University and Southwestern College, nine each; and McPheron College, six. Seventeen state universities were represented by students who came here last year, as well as a number of other colleges and universities country, Tuffs College, near Boston, Mass, sent one student, and Le兰d Stanford, two. A student was here who had taken preparatory work in the College or the City of North Carolina, where he received a bachelor's degree of North Carolina and another from the University of Wisconsin. A consideration of the dramatic situation at the University, and the formation of plans for the year occupied the attention of Phi Alpha Tau honorary dramatic fraternity, at its first meeting of the present day, held last night at the Pi U. house. Twelve members of the organization met in a hall, carefully discussed the condition of K. U. dramatics at last year's meeting. Plans for their improvement and betterment were inaugurated. Phi Alpha Tau was installed at K U. two years ago, and it has since co-operated actively with the Drew University's public speaking in bringing dramatics at the University to a higher plane. All members of the organization have appeared in recognized University theatrical productions. We are leaders in dramatic circles here. PHI ALPHA TAU CONSIDERS STATUS OF K. U. DRAMATIC Alton Gumbiner, who won the Dramatic Club prize last year with his "Copping the Grapes," is president o the organization.

STRONG PRACTICE NOT SECRET Chancellor Tells Freshmen They Must Study History of University Eight hundred freshmen crowded Fraser chapel this morning to hear Chancellor Strong in the first of the series of lectures on the history and ideals of the University planned for the benefit of new students. This is the first time such a course has been given. Fledgelings Warned Not to Ne nglect Spiritual Education STUDY HISTORY OF K. U. "I am giving you this lecture," said the canceller, "so that you may know something about the University you are attending. So that when you go home and the folks ask you about the school you can tell them something more about the apartment in which you are enrolled." K. U. IDEAL INTELLECTUA The second part of his lecture dealt with the ideals of the institution. "The University, is open to all classmates. It is open to both women and women of its students. Anyone coming here to have a good time regardless of anything else might as well take the first train home this afternoon," he said. "The university of Kansas is intellectual." He reviewed the history of the University since it was established in 1866 with an enrollment of fifty-five to its present enrollment of 3400. SPIRITUAL SIDE IMPORTANT He warmed his hearts not to suspect he was the student of their education because this is a state institution and does not teach theology. He declared that moral and spiritual character is essential to success. WANT A FEED TONIGHT?

The Sigma Alpha Epallon fraternity announces the pledging of W. H. Browne. Varsity and Freshmen Scrim maged Yesterday Before 250 Spectators The "secret practice" which Coach Olcott had planned for his Jayhawker football squad yesterday afternoon failed to materialize. Why They Played On Hamilton Field "HATED TO SPOIL GRASS" That's "THERE'S A REASON" There were various reasons. One was that the grass on McCook is not yet in very good condition, and the coach feared that to practice on it now would spoil it for the scheduled games. Another reason was that the team had a fence built around the hadrion on Hamilton Field, and the coaches were anxious to see if it would really keep the crowd away from the players. And the third reason for not having secret practice was—well, it was "just cause". No one else had been able to learn very much, anyhow. Consequently, the workout took place, as usual, on Hamilton Field. Early in the afternoon there was the customary signal, punting and kicking drill for the varsity. The freshmen were out to the north of McCook. Then, late in the afternoon, the tyros and the regulars were sent into scrimage. The absence of five of the best varsity men prevented the regulars from putting up as strong a fight as they did last night. Captain Lindsey was out of the scrimmage with a chancy horse in his left leg; Clay Howe had two legs still lame in both legs from an injury to his hips; and Tom Pringle—"Heavy Tom"—is still unable to really get into the fight because of his shoulder, the clavicle bone of which he dislocated and broke in scrimmage last week. Russ Cowill limped on as Speed Heath and Speed Heath was able only to run signals on account of a sever sprain he received Wednesday. "None of the injuries are especially serious," said Coach Clark during the practice. "However, I don't think we'll want the boys who are hurt to mix up in this affair with Baker next Monday. I'd rather see them rest a little. Pringle is hurt the worst; but he will be all right as long as he can get him out." Baker gets a leg hurt that he can't play football. We expect everybody on the injured list to be all right within a few days." VARSITY PLAYS FROSH Led by Harold Shelley, a junior medic, for out varsity football for the first time this year, the regulars carried the ball against Coach McCarty's freshmen for nearly an hour. Though the defensive play by the yearlings was effective, the tyres were no match for the heavier and longer players and the regulars were able to march down the 'field almost at will. Coach Olcott was everywhere—advising, correcting, making suggestions,—stopping the play when necessary; and careful always to see that a man who played his position properly. The repeated failure of the Varsity men to complete forward passes brought strong reprimands from the coach, and the play was tried time and time again in an effort to perfect it. Judging from the plays attempted yesterday afternoon, the skill with its variability—it is to important part of the Kansans' repertoire. It was six o'clock when Coach Oicott finally gave orders to stop the scriumment, and ordered the men to jog twice around the field before going to Hamilton Hall for their showers and chance of clothes. A crowd of perhaps 250 persons both men and women, lined both side by side. Mr. Orville Bedel of Wichita was the guest of Fritz Schnitzler, c'19 for several days this week. Mr. Bedel is a prominent grain man of Wichita.

Has Real Spirit In Abundance PREPARES FOR FOOTBALL Without Cheerleaders the Gang Celebrated Last Night AN IMPROMPTU AFFAIR And he did it well. "Old Man Pep" woke up last night and looked around. He didn't even get time to stretch or yawn. He was pulled out bodily and without any more urging he headed a three hundred man rally last night near the corner of Fourteenth and Tennessee Streets. It was an impromptu rally—no announcements, no bands, no cheerleaders, no night shirts, no song starters, nothing but real pep from the first time he started it. Until he sent the three hundred home and went out to search for new fields of activity. And he says that he is through sleeping for some time to come. Many of the three hundred were rusty on the songs, and there were many varieties of pitch sounded for the "Rock Chalk," but Old Man Pep was there, and that was the main theme. He had spoken the word, and he led the first rally of the season after a live fashion that 'be promises to keep up all year. GLAD TO BE BACK "I'm glad the boys waked me last night," said Old Man Pep to a Kansan reporter this morning. "I always have a headache and I feel sluggish when I over-sleep, and sometimes when I feel that way I'm not at my best all season. I feel now 'like a million dollars' to use student slang, and we're off for a strong season of rallies." Old Man Pep found the abodes of the Laws last night, and he slipped on them in their sleep. This morning they showed these effects of his visit that they were out in force singing and shouting the Laws are really expected to do. If you didn't get the bug last night Old Man Pep is looking for you. He wanted it thoroughly understood this morning that he was through sleep for the whole year now, and he has a complete list of the student body from the registrar's office. He has promised not to pull anybody's nose out of a book, however, so if you expect to be in trouble, you must listen for him for a few weeks yet. He wants boosters now. He'll call out the mere workers later. "Let's see a bunch out nearly night or so now," said Old Man Pep. 'LODY, YES, SOME CHANGE' King Adams Helped Build The Museum "I tell the Chancellell sometimes when I'm up polishing his floats that he couldn't get along without me," said King Adams, the colored janiar in Fraser Hall as he radiated genially and told of his coming to the University " fifteen yeahs ago the 15th of September. 1 "The Chancellor came 'bout the same time and ah tells him sometimes he just had to have me up here to help them." The Chemistry building he added, "and the Chemistry building wasn't finished when I come." "Times have changed somewhat." "Times have changed somewhat," suggested the listener. "Lo'dy, yes," he exploded as he sauntered off to attend to the duties which fifteen years have made second nature to him. REGISTRAR FOSTER EXPECTS 3,500 STUDENTS THIS YEAR A total enrollment of about 3,500 students is expected for the school year by Registrar George O. Foster. At present, 2,639 students have enrolled in the university here at Lawrence, fifty-nine at Rosedale, and with 473 students of the summer program at Registrar 3711 is announced. About 400 more will register at some time during the year, Registrar Foster believes. Announcement of the number enrolled in the various schools and departments cannot be made for several weeks. Many of the men who have just reported for practice recently are still soft. They complain of frequent bruises, and one freshman who has seen out only a week says that he's slack and blue all over. The men who have been working the full two weeks are in excellent condition now. Their wind is not at all affected by the long scrimmages. "Gee, I think I'll lay off tomorrow night," said a player yesterday as he wearily dragged himself into his clothes after the workout. A chorus of disdant arose. "Forget it, man. Saturday and Sunday are coming you know. And Sunday is a day of rest."
