KANSAS CAPTAIN
PREDICTS VICTORY
(Continued from Page 1)
Captain Optimistic
Captain Rodkey said this morning
that he was not certain whether Pat
tinson, the star pole vaulter, would be
able to go to Lincoln or not, but that
there was a possibility that he would
go with the squad. He was very op
timistic about the results of the meet
and believed that Kansas should win
by a fair margin as Ames beat Ne
braska about five points and Missouri
beat Ames by a large score.
The entries in the Cornhusker meet
will be the same as in the Tiger meet
if all the track men now in school do
not withdraw which seems hardly
probable now as school will close in
about three weeks. In the 100 yard
dash O'Leary, Davidson, Noel, and
Crowley have the best chance.
Sproull, Stateler, Howland, Groene,
and Rodkey can bo depended upon for
the mile, while the hurdle events are
doubtful, but Kansas should at least
take second place.
O'Leary, Rodkey, Sproull and Crow
ley should be able to take the quarter
mile, and Rodkey, Murphy, Sproull
and O'Leary should make a strong
race for first and second place in the
half mile. Davidson, Noel, O'Leary,
Crowley, and Lobaugh will probably
be entered in the 220-yard dash, and
Rodkey, Stateler, Howland and
Groene can be depended upon to place
in the two mile event.
It Is not certain who will run the
relay but Rodkey, Sproull. O'Leary.
and Murphy probably have the best
chance. Pattinson, Zigler, and Rice
will be entered in the pole vaulter
event if Pattinson is persuaded to go.
Woodward and Zlegler will handle the

Fooling the Frosh
A University of Kansas senior tells
one on himself. Knowing that a cer
tain fresh freshman had a date in
the northwestern part of town, this
senior decided to play the part of a
bad hold-up man and have some fun
Taking two husky brothers and a
gun, he Intercepted the freshman on
his way home, and ordered him to
hold up his hands. Not at all abassed,
the youth pulled a long horse pistol
and calmly refused to obey the rude
request. The senior fired a blank to
scare the freshman, but a second later
a real bullet whizzed past his e"ar, and
then another and another. The hold
ud man immediately began to explain.
and finally induced "his victim" to
put away his gun. However, he became
somewhat peeved to find out later that
the freshman knew about his pot all
the time. Ex.

BASEBALL GAME TAME
Too Much Candy in National Pas
time, Says Gleason.
Famous Star of Bygone Days Remind
ed by Honus Wagner of Time Pi
rate Playera Cut His Shoes
With Their Sharp Spikes.
'There's too much candy in the
game now." '
With a disgusting shrug of his shoul
ders, the indomitable Kid Glcnson thus
gave vent to his feelings concerning a
eport that no longer curries the aggres
sive trend of the nineties.
Gleason, who was one of the scrap
piest players that ever pushed a run
ner off n base, has reached the fiftieth
milestone In his life, but move about
with a Kllbnne step, and his eye Is
Just as true as Trls Speaker's.
The famous star of bygone days
went to n hotel in Philadelphia one
night last summer to see his old friend
Jlmmle Callahan. Wagner and Oil
were talking when- the tabasco kid
joined the conference. After discuss
ing current events for a few hours,
Honus turned and said to Gleason: '
"Suv. Kid. vou remember the day
Clarke and the boys cut your shoes oft
in Philadelphia?"
Gleason'8 eve took on a retrospective
gaze as his mind flitted back a dozen
or fifteen years, but he made no repiy
to Wag's remark. None was neces
sary, however, as Ills face indlcateu
that he bad recalled the Incident vi
vidly. Glenson left a few minutes
after, and Honus remarked:'
"We stnrted n series here, and Fred
and some of the rest of the speeders
had the Kid almost barefooted before
the fifth inning arrived, but every one
of us who reached second during the
remnlnder of the series carried a
Glenson-brand trade murk.
"After the Kid's second shoe started
to unravel from the spike wounds he
got real sore. Clarke was on first, nnd
a grounder was lilt to short. A force
play was started, but Glenson deliber
ately took his foot off the bag ana
sunk the ball In between two of
Clarke's ribs. They had to call time
while the ball was yanked from Fred's
hide. The Pittsburgh tenm was glad
when that series was finished.
"Gleason could get more men steal
ing than any other second baseman I
have ever seen. If he had the ball as
soon as the runner the lntter was nev
er safe, as is usually the case now.
The Kid had n slick way of rolling
the runner off the bag, and his trick
fooled most of the umpires.
"Guess Kid Is right," concluded
Honus. "The players nre eating can
dy now instead of plug tobacco."

Mystery to Layman How Slow-Ball
Pitchers Get By Jack Warhop
Lasted Seven Years.
Whnt has become of the slow-ball
pitchers? Nap Rucker, who pitched
the slowest ball that ever crept up on
a big league batsman, has retired from
the service of the Brooklyn club, while
Jean Dubuc, another rather famous
, Jack Warhop.
Blow-baller, is also through with the
Detroit Tigers after some six years ol
splendid service.
To the layman it is often a mystery
bow these slow-ball pitchers could get
by. Reporters, some of whom had
played ball at college and .elsewhere,
would sit behind Jack Warhop's serv
ice, and their bands would Itch for a
bat bo they could stick one of Hop's
benders into the Harlem river. But
Warhop, though never a star, lasted
In the big league seven years. And
Jack never had any luck, or he would
have been rated much higher as a
pitcher than was the case.
