UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
A WEEK OF ATHLETICS
Tennis, Track and Baseball All Have a Part in Closing Days' Activities
The Kansas Aggies are playing K. U. on Mcook Field in the first game of the final series in the Valley conference. The conference title is at stake, and Kansas will have to win it. The team has an order to keep Missouri from winning the championship. Should Kansas win the two games this week the season my be prolonged a week. A deciding basketball series was played by Kansas with Nebraska in 1913 but not in 2015. The ball. The team is anxious to clinch the Valley title and is willing to stay over for a week for the opportunity.
The trip to Des Moines last week gave McCarty a bunch of cripples to work with for the Aggie games. George Smee was hit in the side while sliding into second base in the second Ames game and was unable to finish. Connie Poierier, the third Kansas pitcher, is out for the remainder of
the season. He was pitching a fine game against Highland Park College in Des Moines Saturday afternoon when a “hot one” hit his pitching hand, splitting it to the pitcher and Red Craig to the kickoff. The ish the season for the Kansas team. He will be on the mound this afternoon and hopes to win the first game without much effort in order to repeat in tomorrow's game also. Last year he won two straight games and he will get his chance to “back” again this week.
K. U, IS IN THE RING
Five track men will leave Lawrence tomorrow night to represent Kansas in the Western Conference meet at Chicago, Saturday afternoon. The men who will take the trip are: Captain Reber, Rodkey, Sproull, Treweeke, and Grutzmacher. The Western Conference meet is the biggest intercollegiate travel game in history, and selection of the five men for the trip was made after the Missouri Valley Conference meet in Columbia Saturday. Captain Reber has broken both K. U. records in the weight events, and he should be able to take a second to Arlie Mucks, the star weight heavier
of the country. Fred Rodkey will be able to run in spite of an injury which he received in his race Saturday. Trewehoven has given his strained leg a rest for a couple of weeks already. He leaped over the bar at the 5 feet 9 inch mark yesterday with no apparent strain on the bruised muscles. Sproull will have a chance to trot along after one of the men in the country when he enters the mile run with Mason of Illinois.

"Where Discriminating People Dine"
Bulletin No. 2
Why We Are Opposing A Government Armor Plant
To the People:
Some people say that the very fact that the Bethlehem Steel Company is so aggressively fighting the proposal to build a Government armor plant is conclusive proof that the Company is seeking to assure for itself the "vast profits" derived from private manufacture.
The fact is that armor making is the least profitable feature of steel manufacture.
* *
The reason we oppose a Government plant is very simple. It is this:
Even though there is but little profit in the making of armor, we have invested over $7,000,000 in our armor plant;
That plant is useless for any other purpose; if a Government plant is built the usefulness of our plant is destroyed.
It would be good business for us to make armor for the Government at any price over and above the actual shop cost, RATHER THAN SACRIFICE OUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
To do that, we are prepared to agree for any period to any terms of manufacture which the Federal Trade Commission shall say absolutely protects the Government of the United States.
We do not seek to save big profits; our purpose is very frankly to save our armor plant—itself built solely for the use of the Government—from going to the scrap heap.
