A great deal of Interest in the
game was demonstrated by the students of the two colleges. The two

The preliminary training for the 1919
baseball season is now in full swing.
Several days of favorable weather
have permitted the candidates to familiarize themselves with the diamond
on Stoll Field, and to begin loosening
up their muscles. Quite a number of
candidates have reported, yet Coach
Gill says there are not enough, and
that everyone who has had any experience at all should come out and help
start the season off with plenty of
pep. The outlook for a winning team
is indeed promising.
Letter Men Candidates
Several letter men are again candidates for the team, and about two

The basketball season at the Uni

which the visitors were easy victors.
The Big Red team was unusually swift
and every player seemed able to shoot
a goal when given a ghost of a chance.
Miami scored 37 points to Kentucky's
14, but- - the game was a great deal better than the score might indicate.

Most of the candidates for the track
squad are freshmen. These are being
given careful training by Coach Gill,
and he sees in them prospects for
many victories for the University in
the future. Jimmy Wllhelm, of Padu-cah- ,
who lately returned from the
navy, is a promising candidate. He is
specializing on the half mile and the
mile, and is also a good high jumper.
