UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN CLASSES WILL COMPETE Annual Track Meet on McCook Will Furnish Some Fast Events The annual fall interclass track meet will be held on McCook Field tomorrow afternoon. This will be the first chance the tracksters have had to show their wares this year and some fast races are predicted. Some of the freshmen are planning some surprises for the Varsity men and, in fact, there are liable to be many upsetings of the dope in the meet. The interclass meet last spring was won by the squad which will represent the juniors tomorrow. However, this would not mean that they are going to repeat their performance. The sophomore and freshmen look to be strong competitors for the third year men. The distances will be the best events in the meet because these men will be in shape from cross-country work. A mile or two mile will be a short run from the regular five mile course they have been used to. In the two mile Dedo, Stateler, Howland and Baltz will fight it out while in the mile Herriott, Welch, Spall and Grady are expected to pretty hot will attempt to pull down first place in the half mile from either Herriot or Sproll while Rodkey is expected to have his own way in the quarter mile. The field events will depend to some extent on whether Coach Olcott will spare Reber, Heath, Keeling and Strother from football practice long enough for them to pick up a few medals. In case these weight men are injured, the fine chance will be open for a novice to pick out a medal to suit him. Anyway there will be some excite ment and no class has yet come forth with an assertion that it will win the meet. THE CALENDAR Monday 8—Morning Prayers, Fraser, Dean F. W. Blackmar, 202.

AT RADIO-ACTIVE SUBSTANCES NGT GOOD FERTILIZERS Radio-active substances have no economically important fertilizing value, according to Prof. Charles A. Shull of the botany department who spoke before the Chemical Club Wednesday in Room 201 Chemistry Building. Professor Shull said that various tests had been made, from which conflicting reports have come out; but that the reports of last year indicate conclusively that radio-active substances have no fertilizing value. By a vote of the club, it was decided to adopt a gold lapel pin for the members. At the next meeting, Prof. P. B. Dains of the chemistry department will speak before the club. Carter's 1025 Mass.

GOOD TIME IN CROSS COUNTRY Coach Patterson's Proteges Beat Missouri Valley Time in Tryout Saturday In the preliminary cross country tryout which was held Saturday four men proved the fact that Kansas has an unusually good cross country team this year. The first four men to finish made better time than the Missouri Valley record for five miles and the fourth man was only three yards behind the first. Rodkey, Grady, Baltz and Stateler made the fine showing with a record of twenty-seven minutes and thirty seconds Howland and Baker took the other two places in the race. With this showing Coach Patterson's championship hopes went skyward and he is even considering cleaning up in the Western Conference meet held by Wisconsin this year. But the prospects for a first place in the Missouri Valley race are good. This met is to be held on the local course at the time of the Ne braska-Kansas game. The final tryout for the team which will represent Kansas in the big meet will immediately precede the Washburn-Kansas game Saturday. The runners will leave McCook Field a half hour before the game is scheduled to begin and will return just before the game starts. The first six men to finish in this race will make up the team while gold medals will be given to the first four men who cross the line. Like eating fresh apricots. Apricot ice at Wiedemann's - Adv. KANSAS PLAYED WELL Fighting Spirit Showed Thru-out Game; Team Not Discouraged "No cause for discouragement in the Jayahwaker camp," is what Coach W, O. Hamilton told the crowd of enthusiastic rooters at the Eldridge House yesterday morning. "Our team played twenty-five per cent better football yesterday than they have any time this year and Reber, Lester Gillespie, Fast and Lindsey played a brand of football that has not been equaled by any Kansas players in the last four years." The Kansas spirit came out on Saturday's game unscared and along with the "old fight" there is now, an air of determination pervading the atmosphere in football circles enriched by some sense of other, more but determined looking football players that arrived in Lawrence yesterday morning. Fought to the Finish "We learned one big thing in the game yesterday," said Tony James "and that is, not only to fight, but to fight every minute of the game. We had the Sooners going in the first quarter and until we scored in the second then the boys slacked up a trifle and the Oklahomaans tightened up. But the team came back again and eventually, sending a Sooner to the sidelines about every down, when the game ended." Several hundred students were in the excited crowd that met the team at the deposit yesterday morning. The big bonfire was blazing its highest as a memorial to the "grand" son surrounded the fire and clamored eagerly for a speech. Hauled Team To Town Haunted Town 16 TOWN After Captain Tony James, Joe Gatekill and H. A. Leroux had told the roosters how it happened, the team was loaded in the waitly tally ho and hauled up to the Eldridge House where another demonstration was put on and speeches made by the coaches.

"The boys outplayed Oklahoma at first at their own game but the entire contest was full of 'breaks' and Oklahoma got the majority of them. The Sooners unquestionably were the best they have ever had and if you men could have only seen that game you would have no feeling of discouragement about our team." 829 Massachusetts street Shane's Men Have Date The Mandolin Club will give a concert at St. Marys on the evening of January 14, 1915. So far this is the only engagement which the club has made. All other concert engagements will be made in connection with the Glee Club, but it is probable that there will be no trips made before the Christmas recess as both clubs will then be better prepared to give concerts.
