JINX HOVERS OVER TEAM
Injuries, Sickness and School Work Are Taking Shot at Squad
With the jinx hovering around the Kansas team in two distinct forms, Coach Olentac is trying to get eleven men in shape to play against Washburn Saturday and not have anybody laid out for the Cornhusking a week before. The team and coach work are all taking a shot, at the Jayhawker squad.
Coach Olcott is busy teaching some new plays and perfecting the old ones. Many methods of inflicting pep and fight into the players are being tried and if these are successful a hard fight can be looked for against Nebraska. But the way the fight is lagging now among the team and students a change will be absolutely necessary before next week.
Malaria fever is causing the trouble for Andy Groft and the reports that he will not be in scrimmage again this season are pretty well founded. Tony James has been having trouble with his bad leg of late and the Oklahoma game caused him to be laid out part of this week. Lindsey and Keeling are both limping with bad knees and a rest has to be given. A floppy hips with a stone bruise that is causing considerable pain. Jick Fast has a broken cartilage which will prevent his playing this week.
Along with this string of injuries comes the news that a number of the regulars are back in some of their school work. In a few cases the injured ones are the ones that are behind so the rest will allow them to recuperate in both branches. No, they won't. But at the present time some grades will have to be made up before the next conference game is played.
The game this week will find a different line-up than that which faced earlier opponents but the coaches hope to ward off the Ichabods with their crippled squad. No definite line-up has been announced.
WILL HOLD COB-PIPE MIXER
Men to Use Missouri Meerschaua at Senior-Alumni Smoker Before Nebraska Game
The senior-alumni mixer which will be held Friday evening after the rally for the Nebraska game will be a "different" affair. The men will meet at Robinson Gymnasium at the close of the rally for the Nebraska game to form a torch-light-corn-cob-parade one of the down-town halls. Here there will be a regular smoker with the democratic corn-cob pipe as one of the attractions. Speeches by some of the older "K" men and other prominent graduates, as well as by some of the members of the faculty, songs, and unlitited "pep" will be other attractions.
"This is to be a real home-coming for the alumni," said C. A. Randolph, of the mixer committee this morning. "The alumni must be made to feel that they are welcome. In the past they have not been given the attention that they should have had, but at the mixer we want them well cared for by the members of the senior class. * Opportunities will be made for the alumni to meet old classmates and other friends and to make new friends among the alumni and seniors.
"We want the co-operation of the alumni in the advancement of their school and ours, in the creation of a proper understanding of the purposes and aims of the University by the people of the state, in the sending in of new students, and in the needed legislation to ensure compliance. It is their school, as well as ours, and we want to get together to make a greater and better school."
Between five and six hundred men are expected to be in line in the parade and at the smoker. The details are being worked out now by Randolph, Prof. L. N, Flint, and a committee of senior men: E. M, Johnson, Guy Waldo, Joe Gaitskill, W. W, Wood, and "Pat" Crowell.
FOUR THOUSAND SEATS ON
RESERVE FOR BIG GAME
Coach Hamilton is very well pleased with the number of tickets that have been reserved for the Kansas-Nebraska game. He expects the largest crowd ever witnessed on McCook Field. Four thousand seats had been reserved by noon Wednesday, eight hundred of which were ordered by the Nebraskans. Orders for tickets have been received from fifty adjoining towns and others are being received constantly. However those who order tickets must have paid for them by Wednesday of next week or they will be again put on the list for public sale.
There are nine thousand bleacher seats and two thousand box seats. All students are urged to make reservations before next Monday morning, when the seats will be put on sale. Those who have made reservations will be served first, and Mr. Hamilton is anxious that the students and local people have the advantage of securing the best seats. There have been as many or more ticket reserves for the game than there were at the same time last year for the Missouri game. All the fraternities have made large orders, the largest of which was three hundred. The Kansas Missouri game last year had an attendance of ten thousand two hundred persons and the gate receipts approximated $18,500.

Rodkey Doped to Take First Place for the Third Year Men
The cross country run will be a feature of the entertainment at the Washburn game Saturday. This will be the sixth annual interclass cross country meet. Along with the interclass competition the final tryouts for the Varsity cross country team will be held.
in Meet
The first four men who finish in the race will be awarded gold medals, and the first six Varsity men to finish will make up the team which will represent Kansas against the Missouri Valley schools on McCook Field a week from Saturday. This will allow the competition for the regulars from the freshmen, but the freshmen are not eligible for the regular squad.

The dope on the interclass cross country seems to favor the juniors because of the large number of men they have in the field. Rodkey, the man who will meet this meet last year and all other cross country meets since he has been in school, is doped to again take first place for the juniors. Second place will probably go to Grady, 17, with Staterel, 17, and Baltz, 18, fighting it out for third and fourth. Howland, 17, Baker, 17, and Herrriot, 17, will try for the other two places on the team. The freshmen have Debo, Welch and many others who will probably run in the meet but they will have to go some to place in with the regulars.
The distance men will leave McCook Field about 2:30 Saturday and will return to the finish line less than half an hour later just before K. U. kicks off to Washburn to open the game on Friday. The team is eligible for competition in this meet and a large number are expected to compete.

the Girls Put Life in Their Basketball Contests---Talk of Women's Athletic Association
Imagine the fastest basketball game you ever saw! Then picture to yourself the long sweeping floor lines of our own Robinson Gym.
Almost every afternoon on that floor bunches of K. U. girls are playing snapping enthusiastic games of marbles in a vim that many Varsity games lack.
"You just ought to see some of our sophomore-freshman games," said Miss Pratt, "Every girl gets in the game from the first call of the whistle until the end of the game. The sophomores are ahead now but with just a little more practice the freshmen will be able to make them work for their honors and the final struggle between those two teams will be a hard fought battle well worth the attendance of every girl in school."
No definite teams have been seected as yet and there is still a chance for every grit to get in some good work before Christmas when the permanent teams will be organized and the captains chosen. The zoophomores and freshmen practice on Monday and Wednesday, while crowds of juniors and seniors are out on Thursday at 4:30.

Women Have Opportunity
"Rumors have been floating around the campus," smiled Miss Pratt mysteriously, "that Kansas University girls are to have a real life sized athletic association of their own before long. Wouldn't it be fine to have a 'K' won by your own efforts?" Women of University Have Opportun
"The girls here don't realize what an opportunity they have," stated Miss Elliott, "the high schools all over the state look up to K. U. and we are in here for advice and instruction." We are the center of all Kansas' spirit."

“What is the advantage of the first class ticket,” muttered the man “Presidently the train came to a hill and suddenly stopped. When the man looked out the window to learn the cause of the trouble he heard the porter call out, ‘First class passengers keep your seats, second class get out and walk and third class push for all you're worth.’”
"Don't you see," ended Dr. Goetz, "that every K. U. girl is a passenger on the athletic train? Now it's just up to them whether the hasketball coach of the train gets there or not. You know that when you're pushing and not merely walking beside the train or lazily riding the cushions."
