FIRST CALL FOR SPRING PRACTICE
BALL PLAYERS WILL MEET CAPT HALLER SATURDAY.
Many Men Will Be Out for Places This Year—The Outlook Is Encouraging.
The first baseball practice on McCook field this spring will be held at 3 o.clock Saturday afternoon. The call was issued by Captain Haller today and the men who intend to try for a place on the squad this spring are expected to report to the captain for the first practice of the year. The coaching of the team this year will be done by Manager Lansdon and Captain Hailer. At present McCook field is not in a good condition for base ball practice, but as soon as the weather permits the work of putting the diamond in shape will be undertaken and early practice will begin in earnest.
"The prospects of having a winning team this season look better to me at present than they did at this time last year," said Captain Haller this afternoon, when asked about the men who intended to try for positions on the squad. "Of course, we cannot tell very much about how the team will progress as yet, but the number of old men back in the game looks encouraging."
Eight of the men who played on the squad last year will be out for the nine and many of the freshmen who played good ball last spring have expressed their intentions of giving the old men a hard run for places. The men
or last year's squad who will try for the nine this year are Captain Haller, "Jim" Smith, "Hutch" Walker, Palmer, Larson, Wilhelm, Dick Ward, Locke, and Farrell. Some of the other men who will enter the race for the positions are Nesbitt, Lynch, and McMullen. The members of the freshman team who are trying for places on the squad are Hill, Porter, Laffer, Hicks, Walker, Hamilton, Busiek McCarty, Ashercraft, and Weede. The men who will work for the batteries are Jim Smith and Hill, catchers and Locke, Farrell, Busick, McCarty, Ashercraft, and Weede, pitchers.

PRISON STORIES BY SYLVIA PANKHURST
NOTED SUFFRAGETTE WILL SPEAK HERE SOON.
Egg sandwiches at College Inn
Equal Suffrage League and Douglas County Equal Franchise League Secured Her.
Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, the noted suffragette worker of England, will speak in chapel a week from Thursday and will give a lecture Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock in the Presbyterian church. Miss Pankhurst, who is making her first trip through the United States, is to speak in Lawrence through the efforts of the College Equal Suffrage League and the Douglas County Equal Franchise League. Her Lecture "Prison Experiences," is a short story of her own life, showing the suffering which many women are enduring for the sake of equal suffrage in England.
In England the authorities do not permit women to speak upon suffrage. Miss Pankhurst has twice been arrested for circulating petitions for women suffrage. She is the daughter of the late Dr. Pankhurst, a leading lawyer and the special champion of women's rights and religious liberty; and of Mrs. Pankhurst, whose reputation as a woman's suffrage leader is world wide. Miss Pankhurst has spoken in nearly all of the large cities of the United States. She spoke in the Iowa legislature and in Toronto and other cities of Canada. Although only twenty-five years of age Miss Pankhurst has been through more active political experience than fall to most politicians in a long life.
In the varsity sports at Oxford, England, Saturday, George E. Putnam, a Rhodes scholar from Ottawa, Kan., won the hammer throw with a mark of 148 feet 2 inches.
Miss Pankhurst is a vigorous writer as well as speaker and has written much and with practical effect on the conditions of women's labor, on prison reform, and on the equal suffrage question. Her leading work is "The Suffragette," a history of the Militant Votes-for-Women movement in England. The efforts of the English women have been of such weight that the cause of women suffrage is to be heard by the English legislators in May.
Putnam was graduated from the University in 1907, when he was only 19 years old. He was one of the University's strongest athletes while in College, both on the track and the football field The next year he spent at Yale where he was granted a master of arts degree and in September 1908, was appointed the Rhode Scholar to Oxford from Kansas.
Miss Helen Phillips is the president of the University organization, and Mrs. Paul R. Brooks of the City League.
Putnam Stars Again.
Last spring he broke the English amateur record for the hammer throw with a throw of 158 feet 1 inch.

HONEST STUDENTS, SURE!
Registrar Foster's Remarks Do Not Apply Here.
Work was commenced yesterday on a residence for Prof. H. W. Humble, on lots just west of the engineering building, overlooking the golf links.
Registrar Geo. O. Foster, who gave a speech in chapel a short time ago on the dishonesty of the students, should be somewhat reconciled by the long list on the bulletin boards, of lost articles handed in to Secretary Brown. Possibly the most honest man in the University is A. E. Mallory, whose name appears on the list as the finder of a pin No 85. Prof. F. W. Blackmar is recorded as having reported two lost gloves; but the fact that these were not mates detracts somewhat from the apparent integrity of the finder. All suspicion is removed from Joe Glahn, for he reported two rings, a watch fob, a pocketbook and a knife. James King found a Student Enterprise ticket and a fountain pen; but the latter did not tempt him to sign the former. If no one calls at the secretary's office and identifies articles No 12 and 14, before March 10, two professors' daughters, Miss Sterling and Miss Hodder, will be owners of a fountain pen apiece. Secretary Brown is especially anxious to get rid of a Beta and a Phi Delt hat pin. He doesn't want anyone to suggest that he place a three-ball sign over the door of his office.
Thirty students of the University went to Topeka last Saturday to attend "Ben Hur."
Professor Dykstra, of the history department, will speak March 10, before the Anti-Horse Thief Association at Cottonwood Falls, on "Law, Order and Morals."
Election at Washburn.
Edgar Burkhart, right halfback of the Washburn football team for the past two years, has been elected captain of the team for 1911. The special election was called to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Philip Whitcomb, captain-elect, who won the Rhodes scholarship last fall from the state of Kansas.
Florence Heizer, '07, is visiting friends at the University this week. While here Miss Heizer will do some work in the library in preparation for a play she is intending to write.
Ross Etter, a junior pharmacie was called to his home in McPher son last Friday evening on account of the serious illness of his grandmother.
