Few teams lost manymen by graduation last year, and havemany promising candidates for thepositions that are open. The follow­ing account, taken from The DailyIllini, contains the outlook at the dif­ferent institutions:Purdue Prospects Bright."Purdue, who with lIinnesota tied'for the Conference basketball hon­ors last season, bids fair to make anequally strong bid for first honorsduring the coming campaign. CoachJones has four veterans out at prac­tice, in McVaugh, Johnson, Stockton,and .Barr. Stockton and McVaughare seasoned players. The Boiler­makers can be depended upon to re­tain their reputation for' a fightingfive, and with the addition of some'new blood the Lafayette quintettewill make their opponents exert them­selves in every battle.

Leroy, Clauser, and Hughesare among the others who are men­tioned as Varsity possibilities. The'trio has had considerable experience.It is still 'too early to get a definiteline on the available material, but itis thought the squad will be large."Twenty-five basketball candidatesreported to Captain Davis in answerto the notice summoning all materialto the first practice of the year. Twen­ty-five men is the largest number an­swering a call for first practice, andin view of the graduation of last year'sstars, Berndt, Barnhart" and Hips­kind, which left a big hole in the line­up of the five, the ,showing .last nightwas gratifying to Dr. Hutchins, coach,and Captain Davis.Veterans on Purple Squad."At Northwestern the call for can­didates has met with a response thathas gratified both Coach Hammettand Lamke. Coach Hammett issuedthe first practice summons early inthe week, and last year's team cameback intact with but one exception,Piper being die only man absent."Among those wJio are expected toreport for basketball are CaptainLamke, Ray Lamke, Wells, Scanlon,Thorsen, Cunningham, and McCul­lough, in addition to the following re­cruits: Moschel, Gruhn, Linn, Mc­Pherin, Robbins, and Gleason."Other Squada Larp.At Wisconsin and Minnesota themen have been working since Thanks­giving, and both institutions have(Continued OD. pace 4) JEFF GREATER MAN THAN MUTT 'EXPECf ONE THOUSANDAT SmLEMENT DANCE\Affirmative Side Wins In PublicSpeaking Class Debate - WeDKnown Cartoon Subject Comparedto Napoleon. u .... two Liaa ScIaeae of .. trodac­tioa Will Be UapIoJed­Stub at 7:30.Jeff is a greater man than Mutt.He has been vindicated in the eyesof the students of the University as-the result of a debate held in Assist­ant Professor Blanchard's publicspeaking 2 class.

The win­ning team received unusual applausebecause of the fact that it got the'better of one of the species which hasthe reputation of seldom losing inopen debate.Upon examination it was ascer­tained that the playing on the emo­tions of the hearers by the winnersin favor of the little man was the de­ciding factor in the result. Other ar­guments in favor of Jeff were that hewas like Napoleon, that he had redhair, and that he always had a "comeback" for his larger adversary whichmore than offset the difference in PLAN FOR NEIGHBORHOOD WOMENEscorts to Be Provided By Novel De­vice - Freshmen Dance' ForPreliminary.The Settlement dance will start to­night at 7:30 in Bartlett when thetwo lines will be formed for the usualgeneral introduction.
