WASHINGTON TEAM CLEANS KANSAS FIVE
Runs Away With Last Two Conference Games of the Season
KANSANS LOSE THEIR "PEP."
Friday Night's Game a Walkaway For Washington; "Any Man's" Game Saturday Night.
In the last two conference games of the season, before playing off the championship series, the University of Kansas basket-ball team fell before the superior playing of the Washington University five and came home with the only two defeats of the season to their otherwise unblemished schedule. Lack of interest and fatigue after playing two hard games with Missouri are given as the causes for the downfall of the Kansas five. While Coach Hamilton's men played good team work in both games, their inability to shoot goals on a strange court again showed itself and the men were unable to score after successfully passing the ball the length of the court.
Friday's Game
The game Friday night was clearly Washington's from the start. Stuckey and his men were completely outplayed and were unable to cope with the fast playing of Captain Falvey and his Pikeways. While Stuckey and Greenlee both put up good games they were not in their regular form and could not be depended on. But the team that was entirely "off" failing to score any field goals and making only about half of his free throws.
The rest of the team played in a languid manner and failed to show any signs of "epp" at any time during the game. The game the night before with the Tigers had been a hard one and the trip to St. Louis had not been one where the Jayhawkers could pick up any lost rest and the usual spirit was lacking. Also the southern championship had been cinched and the stimulus to play for something had gone.
The line up for Friday's game was as follows:
Washington G. FT. F.
Berryhill, rf. 2 3 3

Saturday's Game
When the Kansas five trotted out on the court for the game Saturday night their very manner showed a change from the night before and from the first tip off to the final whistle the game was "nip and tuck." Fast playing, good tear work and fairly good goal shooting characterize the players of the playoff at Jayhawkers, while the Washington U, boys put up the same strong speedy game as they had the night before.
The game itself was one of the best played this season both from its lack of rough playing and the close scores made. The Pikeways started off in the lead but were soon headed by the Jayhawkers through some fast passing by Hite and Stuckey It was not long however before the St. Louis team was again leading but to be passed again by the Kansas five. And so the scores ran throughout the game up to the last few minutes of play when two quick passes by the Washington boys gave them the final lead. The game end
New Skating Record

ENGINEERS HOLD HIGH WASSAIL IN GYMNASIUM
(Continued From Page 1)
appreciate opportunity," said Dean Marvin, "and he must dare to do his duty when he does see the opportunity."
Dean E. B. McCormick, of the Kansas State Agricultural College at Manhattan spoke on "Exhaust Steam." He said that the engineer's chief duty should be to eliminate, as far as possible, the waste products in all lines of business, and to result in residue from industrial works, and in general to find a use for everything.
Chancellor Recommends Loyality.
"Some Things the Technical Man Should Stand for," was the subject of Chancellor Strong's address. "The engineer should be loyal to his alma mater," said the Chancellor, "and he should take an active part in the civic affairs of his community, as he owes it to himself, as well as to the public, to use the training which he has received."
L. O. Ripley, of Wichita, spoke on the "Business Side of Engineering." Among other things, Mr. Ripley said, "It generally takes an engineer some time to find his connection with the business world, but when he does find it, he should use his very best efforts in serving the company by whom he is employed, and also the general public when occasion demands it."
Prof. W. A. Whitaker Jr., of the Metallurgy department at the University, spoke on the "Metallurgical Engineer." Professor Whitaker remarked that this was not the only the latest addition to the engineering field, but that it was also one of the most important. "The various problems of getting new metal compounds, and of improving present metals must all be solved by the metallurgical engineer," said Professor Whitaker.
Engineer's day Plans Exposed.
Martin K. Thoman, vice president of the engineers, told briefly of the plans for Engineer's day, and urged them to put their engineers in making the day a success.
The stunts put on by the several schools were all good and showed a large amount of preparation by the committees in charge of them.
The electrical's stunt consisted of a large sky-rocket which rose gradually a few feet, and then suddenly dropped and "broke" showing the letters, K. U. E. in red and blue electric lights. They also had an automobile horn of the growling type which did its share of noise making. Each electrical wore a small button-hole electric light during the banquet.
The mechanicals had an up-to-date power plant. The boiler was equipped with automatic stoker, super-heater, and noiseless whistle. Patents throughout the world on the plant, are held exclusively by the K. U. mechanicals.
The civils had a boom suspended from a steam crane which was a good reproduction of the modern crane, and it was pictured on the four sides of the boom.
The miners had "blasts" set at various places in the room which departed from time to time. They also had several "infernal machines" suspended from the ceiling and these occasioned much anxiety on the part of some of those present. These formidable looking affairs, however, exploded without doing any serious damage.
Bang! T'was the Noisy Mines.
The chemicals liberated several badly smelling compounds which filled the room with smoke and a varied assortment of odors. The sanitary engineers at once had a chance to prove that the air was toxic, but general, and immediately proceeded to clear up the atmosphere which the chemicals had polluted.
KANSAS GETS BETTER ATHLETIC MATERIAL
Freshmen Here Surpass Yearlings of Eastern Schools in Physical Measurement
Tests Show That Our First Year Men, Though Younger, Out Lift Yale's and Wisconsin's.
Yet, notwithstanding this difference in age, the Kansas freshmen show physical development surpassing in almost every detail the older men in the other schools. The only item in which Kansas is made more literate has limited capacity and this may be accounted for by the difference in age.
The freshmen of the University of Kansas are, on the average, younger, yet taller and stronger than those of the Eastern schools. The Daily Cardinal of the University of Wisconsin printed a table, comparing the physical averages of its freshmen and those of Yale. The Badgers surpass the Yale yearlings in height and strength but are nearly a year older. The average a year younger than those of Yale and almost two years younger than the first year men of Wisconsin.
The Kansas youngsters are almost an inch taller than those of Yale and a tenth of an inch taller than those of Wisconsin, though their weight is about the same. The back test shows an advantage of 18.7 kilograms in favor of Kansas, and the leg and arm tests show the superiority of Kansas muscle in a slightly smaller degree.

ATHLETIC CREDIT FOR GOLF

Drake University to Give Units for Pasture Pool.
Golf received a big boost when Coach Griffith announced Friday that athletic credit will be given this spring to those participating in the tournament. Six credits in athletics are required for graduation and the new ruling will no doubt create a larger interest in golf as a means of obtaining those credits.
The Drake Golf Association in a body is planning to take lessons soon from Burke and Roseman the local professional instructors. The Association is also planning to entertain the golfers of the Missouri Valley Conference in a tournament next year—Drake Delphic.

The College passed well and showed good team work during the entire game. The center of both teams were removed for personal fouls. Kent of Kansas was also derricked for the same reason.

BASKET BALL RESULTS
Standing of Teams in Big Eight and in the East.
The standings of the various basket-ball teams in the country for the week ending Saturday, February 24, shows that Purdue and Wisconsin are still in the lead in the big eight while Columbia is in the lead in the east.
The result in the big eight will probably remain a tie as there will be no games between the leaders in that section unless a post season series is arranged. Each team has one game left to play but as they have defeated their opponent to be before the results are not expected to make any difference in the standing.
