UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN TRACKMEN MAKE GOOD SHOWING IN TRYOUTS As the time for the Des Moines Relay games approaches the track men are taking unprecedented interest in the tryouts. Competition among the men has reached such a stage that a day never passes with no change. The mile and the half mile have been run most lately because the men expected only to be entered in the four- and two-mile relays. With the announcement yesterday that the one-mile and half-mile teams had already entered in the competition, already entered the shorter distance men are coming out in full force. Announcement was also made that the tryouts would not be held in any one afternoon but the standing of the men in all races up to the time of the meet would be considered. This gives the men a chance to show their ability without having a lucky streak on a certain day. The main effort of the Kansas men will be on watching the four-mile relay for it depends on their showing at Des Moines whether they will be sent to compete with the eastern colleges at Philadelphia a week later. In the regular practice yesterday the coach put the men through a preliminary tryout and fast time was made in both the mile and half-mile races. Then he up for the 880-yard run, the former winning by a few feet in the fast time of 2:02 flat. Herriott's specialty has always been the mile but with such time as 2:03 to his credit in the race, he had a hand at repeating in this event. Des Moines Relay Candidates Speed up—Grady Leads in Mile The mile was not quite as exciting as the half but was full of surprises. Grady won this event in 4:40 with Sproull a few feet behind. Edwards was forced to take third in 4:43 with Poos coming in fourth a second later. With all the men running around the same time it will be hard to pick out the winner. Really, The men from whom the four-mile team will be chosen will be Captain Edwards, Rodkey, Herriott, Grady, C. Sproull, Poos and Stateleer The two-mile team making the trip will be picked after the line up for a game, and then chosen. The men who have been trying for this event and from whom the team will be composed are Capable Creighton, C. Sproull, and Fiske. SPOONER LIBRARY GETS 229 RELIC VOLUMES The craving to hide away in the attic and dig through the musty old relics that have gained their fascination through their age may soon be satisfied in Spooner Library by a visit to the "History and Chronicles of Great Britain." Many of the books in the library have been collected from the dusty corners of libraries and even attics much older than any in America. Some of the books bear on their fly-leaves comments that show they were written wit he quill pen while other volumes have book-plates engraved in Latin, French or even old Anglo-Saxon.

ALPHA TAUS WIN FIRST, 8-2 Last Year's Champs Take Initial Game From Acusin The Alpha Taus took the Acacias into camp in the first game of the Pan-Hellenic league yesterday, 8 to 2. The work of both teams was ragged at times, a slow game resulting from the lack of practice. Poor fielding resulted in three-base hits by King and Benton being stretched into home runs. Besides these two long hits the game was featureless with no conditions like last two innings resemble a game of water baseball. Stuewe, pitching for the Alpha Tau, held his opponents to one hit, while his teammates found Trecee for five solid swats, two triples and three singles. Padgett, who pitched for the A.T. O.'s, was found for one hit, Score by innings: R. H. E.

The class will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4:30 o'clock. No credit will be given for the course, but anyone interested and willing to work is invited to join the course. H. A. Lorenz, in speaking of the plan, said "We are doing it only because the men who expect to teach want some experience in handling such a class before they get out of school." We should have charge for one period at least, and will get the idea fairly well in the short time left this term." It is the first time that such a course has been offered, and the success of the plan depends on the interest shown in it by the students. The student will have the course in coaching methods given at 8:30 o'clock by Coach Hamilton. A memorial for the junior class is nearer realization than ever before, according to Henry A. Shinn, chairman of the junior memorial committee. Collectors have been appointed to work in the different schools and their reports are beginning to come in. JUNIOR COMMITTEE WORKS FOR MEMORIAL The exact standing of the work will not be known before April 15 when Shinn will be free from his debating work and will be prepared to make reports concerning the progress of the collections.

The robin and the redbird may fall, the flowers may come "a bit too soon," and even the slow moving oak buds may be premature in their bursting, but there is one sign that each year unquestionably marks the coming of spring on the campus: the going of the storm fronts.
