Prospects Are Bright For Cross Country Runners This Year
Competition for the places on the team promises to be keen. Welsh, one of last year's freshmen, ran the 5-mile course a number of times last year and is recognized as one of the best young athletes in the United States. His work attracted considerable attention last spring at the K. C. A. C. meets at Kansas City. Dillon is another freshman who did good work last year and showed up well in the Kansas City meets. Couchman, another "find" in last year's freshman team is being recruited until the team. Several more of last year's freshmen will be out for practice as well as a number of upperclassmen.
Prospects are bright form the K. U. cross country team this fall, in the opinion of Manager W. O. Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton in an interview yesterday, stated that an early survey of the athletic situation showed that his team ought to win fame this year. Some of the old men, of course, are not back, but last year's freshman team was a winner and will furnish men for the vacancies. Archie Grady and Elmer Lester will be the squil sas spring, will not be back.
Four regulars will return. They are Ernest Stateler, who was elected captain of the team last fall; Fred Dugard, who was put in charge undefeated in the 5-mile race in the Missouri Valley; and Everett Greene and Herbert Howland. This is the second year of cross country running at the University since it has started from other track work. Letters are now given for work this sport.
Practice for the cross country work will not start until the second week of school and so far no meets have been scheduled but it is the custom to hold a meet with sports teams and football games. Manager Hamilton will enter his team in the Western Conference meet at one of the Big Nine schools, pro-am meets and Missouri Valley meet warrants the expenditure of the necessary funds to take the men there.
Rush Week Activities Respon sible for Removal of Ban
NO DATE RULE NOW
The "date rule" will not go into of feet until the end of this week, according to a statement made recently by Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women. The activities of the fraternities and sororites during "rush week" are responsible for the removal of the ban.
According to the regulation adopted last year by the women of the University, week-night dates during midnight are allowed, but o'clock unless the students concerned are attendin g dance. On Friday and Saturday nights, dates may continue until midnight. Students who attend dances are allowed to remain until midnight or after.'
On next Saturday night, the date rule as it existed all last year will go into effect, and all dates must end at 10:00 o'clock, with the earliest midnight dates, which may continue until 11:00. After this week, mid-week dates will be prohibited, except on occasions of "public interest" and at times when the rule is declared 'off' by the World Student Government Association.
"We expect to have very little trouble with the date rule this year," said a prominent member of the W. S. G. A, recently. "The women themselves chose the present rule at a special meeting, and they have been enforced very successfully. Most of the women students are conscientious enough to keep the rule, without interference on the part of house mothers or landlades. Of course, the council will probably have to make some changes to hope for as little friction as possible."
Selling Fords is not a bad job, according to Kenneth Shane, who has been so engaged at Ft. Morgan, Co., will continue his work at K. U.
According to a statement made at the office of the adviser of women, it is not necessary to schedule dancing parties given during the present week. Subsequent dances, however, must be scheduled three days ahead of time.
John Dail, who has been disposing of books in the wilds of Idaho, is expected in Lawrence shortly.
Charley Sibbitt arrived Thursday evening from his home in Protection, where he has been harvesting all summer.
