UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
IT WAS THE SAME OLD SEVEN AND SI
Jayhawker Track Hoodoo Held Good and Tigers Won the Meet
55; KANSAS, 3
Murray Won Two Mile in Record Time—French Lost High Jump to Nicholson.
'Twas the same old story in much the same old way. That is all there is to be said.
Missouri won the ninth annual indoor meet from Kansas with the same apparent ease that she won the other eight. The score was Missouri 50, Kansas 35.
From the unprejudiced observers plont of view the meet was a dandy. In every track event save the relay a blanket would have covered the men at the finish and the ti me made in the Convention hall records with the Convention hall records.
The two real features of the evening were the high jump and the relay.
In the first of these Captain French lost to Nicolson of Missouri with the bar at 6 feet, 1 5-8 inches. The Tiger jumper, after two bad trials, went over the bar, which quivered but held its cap. Nicolson's captain's first two trials were of the same type, when herer's, but less fortunate. His last trial was a clean miss.
TWO MILE THE FEATURE EVENT
In the two mile, little Murray, probably the most deserving athlete that ever wore the K. U. uniform, set a new record in that event and at the same time defeated the Missouri men who were pitted against him.
Moss and Wickham led the Kansas runner up to the eighteenth lap. At that time Murray sneaked by Moss, who had tired himself out in setting the pace, and settled himself close to Wickham's heels. On the twenty-second lap began the greatest sprint ever seen in the two mile event in Convention hall. For a lap and a half the runners traveled side by side, but in the last half Murray passed the worn out Tiger and won by a yard.
MILE HANDICAP TO JOHNSON
SUMMARY OF EVENTS
One of the most interesting events of the meet was the handicap mile. Johnson, Missouri's former star miler, was on the scratch. Thirty yards ahead of him was Edwards, a Kansas freshman. In the first half mile Johnson headed everyone but Edwards with ease, but when he attempted to duplicate the performance with the flying freshman, he found that life still had a few rough spots. He passed Edwards in the eleventh lap and once getting ahead was forced to run himself to death to beat the freshman over the tape by a vard.

GIRLS ARE USING POOL
Swimming Classes Mondays and Thursdays Developing Some Real Experts
The warm weather is increasing the interest in swimming among the members of the Women's Athletic Association and though no "Annette Kellerman" has as yet been discovered there are several who, if they keep up their present showing, will be in a position to give her a close race for the title before very long.
Last week there were seventeen girls in the pool and this week twenty-four took the plunge. There are two classes, the beginners class from 3:30 till 4:30 and the experts class from 4:30 till 5:30. After the girls learn the principles of swimming they are allowed to join in the "stunt swimming." This consists mostly of racing the length of the pool and under water swimming. Some of the girls can go the length of the pool under water. Little attention has been paid to diving yet, though more prominence will be given to it later in the season.
EASTER GIFTS
Miss Nell Martindale is in charge of the swimming on Mondays and Miss Rose Abbott on Thursdays. The swimming classes give an excellent chance, especially for the junior, and seniors, to help along their college degree by earning their degree in swimming.
KANSAS MAN IN THE EAST

SHORT COURSE IN COLLEGE
FOR MOST POPULAR GIRI
Instead of giving merchandise for prizes in a contest, a clothing firm in Neocho, Mo., will give scholarships in short courses in the Missouri State College of Agriculture. The lecturer for the State Board of Agriculture has received a letter telling of the plan, and asked him for suggestions.
The plan as he has outlined it is for each dollar spent in trade with the company, to represent one vote for the candidate for the short course. Four courses will be offered, two for women and two for young men.

PERFORMANCES OF 1912 GOAL SHOOTERS
Spring—John Winter, Leave That Child Be
Captain Stuckey Led in Field Goals, Brown Scored Most
Points
The basket ball season just closed was one of the most remarkable in the history of the school. Starting the season with only two K men back, the coach whipped a squad into shape out of the available material which though it was very vener-viorious managed to keep up its standard for Jawhawk basket ball, scoring 519 points to their opponents 459.
No man loomed up as an individual star the playing being equally divided between the team. The team this year did not consist of five picked men but rather of seven men all of who were in the majority of the games.
The scoring was equally divided between the two forwards, Captain Stuckey managing to slip in one more goal than his team-mate Brown.
The most remarkable showing in that line was that made by Smith who though only in about three-fourths of the games and the majority of them scored, those missions managed to slip in twenty-three. The individual scores are as follows:

Stuckey (captain) 52 2

It is not the fault of the university if a man is offered education beyond his capacity, according to President Taft in an address before the Indianaapolis University students. It is the fault of the man, or of his parents, who sent him to a place where the intellectual life of the man then becomes intoxicated under the inspiration of something stronger than his mind is able to stand.

A SWEET REVENGE FOR BLUE PLAYERS
Defeated the Reds 25 to 15 in the Second Basket Ball Contest
Both teams put up an interesting game, and all the players showed the results of hard training and close attention to the game. The only girl who called a star was Cora McGill of the 25 points who scored 16 of the 25 points.
With a score of 25 to 12, the Blues won the second basket ball game of the series which is being played between the Crimson and the Blue teams of the Women's Athletic Association. The game was played Friday afternoon in Robinson gym unthe rules governing women's basketball.
On account of the lack of advertising the crowd that attended the game was small but the teams made up for the lack of interest of the spectators by their own surplus spirit in giving yells and dance skates across the gym floor.
The game was played with nine players on a side, three forwards, three centers and three guards. The Crimson started off slightly in the lead and it looked for a while as if they would repeat their victory of the first game, but the Blues by more concentrated playing and team work soon forged ahead and by the accurate basket shooting of Cora McGill had slightly doubled the score of the Crimsons by the end of the game.

GOLFERS MAY JOIN KANSAS ASSOCIATION
Oread Club Expects to Enter Team in the State Tournament.
The Oread Golf Club, at its regular spring meeting yesterday, decided to apply for membership in the Kansas State Golf Association. A letter from the officials of the state association had been received by President F. W. Blackmar, of the local golf club, in regard to the membership, and at the meeting it was voted unanimously to make the application. Among other privileges, the membership will entitle the members of the Oread Club to compete in the annual state championship tournament.
In all probability this will mean that Lawrence will be represented by a delegation of five or six players in the state championship tournament to be held next July. Although the Oread club is a comparatively new organization and has a small membership, when compared with many other clubs in Iowa, four three of its players are as good players as are to be found in Kansas.
The golf club smoker will be held tomorrow, Saturday, night at the residence of J. G. Gibb, 641 Loliusa street. All members are urged to come. It was planned to open the spring schedule Saturday afternoon with a match between two picked teams, but the game has been called off by the tournament committee. The links are still partially covered with snow, and it will be several days before the course is in shine for play.
The length of the Oread course, as determined by the committee, is 2505 yards, and the bogey has been placed at 40. Just as soon as the weather will permit the grounds committee will start work on the course. New sand boxes will be installed, the trees will be leveled and straightened, and the putting greens placed in first class condition. When play is resumed the course will be in the best shape it has ever been in .
OLDEST BOOK IS FOUND
IN REAL WOODEN BOARDS
Naturae Historiarum, by Hon. Pliny,
1518, Spooner's Most Ancient
Volume - Covered With Leather.
"Naturea Historiarum," is the title of the oldest book in Spooner Library, and the book certainly has some age, having been printed in 1518. A Mr. Marvellus wrote that among them we are indebted for this ancient treatise, and it is written in his best Latin.
They bound the books in pretty good shape in the old days. "Naturea Historiarum" is bound in wood a quarter of an inch thick which is covered with inlaid leather. Its measurements are eighteen by twelve inches.
The single volume really contains thirty-seven books and was presented to the library through Gen. Geo. W. Deitzler, by William A. Phillips.
