SEVENTY-FIVE MEN
OUTFOR BASKETBALL
ONLY TWO VETERANS ARE BACK.
Practice Will Not Interfere With Study This Year—To Pick Team in Three Weeks.
Seventy-five men reported to Coach W. O. Hamilton at the gymnasium last night for the second regular basketball practice of the year. These men intend to try out for the varsity and the several class and school teams.
The men were divided into two equats and each squad was given one half the court. The first part of the hour's practice consisted in handling the ball. About ten men were allowed on each end of the court at a time, and they were given practice in passing the ball. Later the men were given preliminary practice in dribbling and goal shooting.
For the first two or three weeks practice will be held on Monday and Wednesday evenings from eight till nine. Men are expected to report promptly on time, and practice will cease at nine sharp. In this way study will not be interfered with.
In about three weeks Coach Hamilton will commence the weeding out process preliminary to selecting the team. Only two of last year's regular varsity squad are out for the team this year. They are Captain Dousman and George Stuckey.
ALMOST BIT OFF HIS TOE.
Capt. Ammons Had Exciting Experience With Wall-Eyed Pike.
Achilles had a vulnerable heel, but Captain Ammons, of the Jay-hawkers, has a vulnerable toe. Last spring after the track meet in Minneapolis, Minn., Manager Lansdon and Coach Hamilton took the big football warrior for a ten days' fishing trip among the lakes in northern Minnesota. Immediately upon his arrival at the camping ground the "Rock Crusher" proceeded to divest himself of his footwear and for a whole day scrambled over the beach and waded in the water in an ecstasy that Coach Hamilton says was beautiful to behold.
At the close of the first day the Jayhawker captain complained that his feet were badly sunburned and when he arose the next morning he found himself unable to wear his trusty number 10s and hence was forced to start on the first fishing trip barefooted. Manager Lansdon remained at the camp. Coach Hamilton sat at one end of the boat and his heavier companion sat at the other end with the top of the boat just above the water. In a short time the coach hooked a big wall-eyed pike and after much aid landed him in the boat. Just as the fish flopped into the boat he broke loose from the hook and started to slide head first down the slippery bottom of the boat. The captain was silently watching the operations but when he saw the big fish come scooting with mouth wide-open toward his bare feet, he did some rapid manauvering. But he was not swift enough. The fish sighted the large toe of the doughty football warrior and proceeded to check his downward career by holding on to this unlucky member. Ammons remonstrated with the fish and vocalized in a manner that truly shocked his coach, but it was several moments before the pike could be induced to let go his hold. When order was restored it was found that the toe was badly lacerated and even today Ammons complains of a certain soreness in his left pedal.
That is why the captain of the Jayhawkers doesn't take much stock in wall-cyed pikes.

ASK RATE REDUCTION
Manager Hamilton Thinks Railroads Will be Favorable.
Officials of the Santa Fe railroad were in conference with Coach Hamilton yesterday in regard to the proposed excursion rate from Lawrence to Columbia for the Missouri game. Nov. 25. Mr. Wm. Curtis, traveling pas, senger agent of the Santa Fe, anounced that his road could not grant a rate between Lawrence and Kansas City. What the Union Pacific will do remains to be seen, but Coach Hamilton is hopeful of a reduction. The straight rate between Lawrence and Columbia is $9.10 for the round trip. At this rate it would be cheaper to charter a special train for the "Fighting Five Hundred," than to pay fare, but Manager Hamilton expects to confer with a representative of the Wabash next week, in regard to a rate from Kansas City to Columbia
"The Wabash practically holds the key to the situation," said the coach this morning. "It is the only through route from Columbia to Kansas City, and handles about all of Missouri University's traffic. It is hoped they will see fit to grant us a reduction in the rate, in view of the fact that we expect the entire 'Fighting Five Hundred' to invade the Tiger's lair this year."
ADOPT RESOLUTIONS
Regents Express Sorrow For The Death of Ex-Regent Mitchell.
At the meeting of the board of regents yesterday a resolution was adopted concerning the death of former Regent A. C. Mitchell who died this summer. It is:
"The Board of Regents of the University of Kansas desires to put upon its records its high appreciation of the life and services of A. C. Mitchell. As regards his work for the University as a member of the Board of Regents and in the legislature of the state as worthy of the highest recognition. It believes that affectionate loyalty of such able and efficient graduates to be a priceless heritage for any institution and that the University can hardly hope for more able and intelligent service than was rendered to it by Mr. Mitchell."
