The Tigers are hot on the tails of the leaders, being only one game short of the top berth. The windy Cyclones are still in the money with four wins and three losses. The Cornhuskers have a three won, four lost standing. The Sooners are on the down-grade, having lost their last five games. The hard luck Jay Hawkers broke into the winning column by defeating the Sooners 17 to 11 Wednesday. The unlucky Jay Hawkers will be causing the rest of the league plenty of

Recreation Available for Whole Family—Says Allen
"We want to encourage all students, faculty and friends of summer session to enjoy the enlarging facilities of the rereation puadrangle," stated Dr. F. C. Allen, director of recreation for the University Summer Session . All types of games have been provided for and we set no age limit. Games are present for the tiny tots competitive games for the younger set, and more games for the younger set, and more conservative recreation for the middle-aged."
"'Goal-Hi', the new basketball game is being initiated Thursday night, shuffleboard, croquet, archery, golf, putting practice, and turning bars are now being used outside. Inside nearby Robinson Gymnasium are volley-ball games, badminton, ping pong, goal shouting and swimming."
We hope to provide for your personal recreation," concluded Dr. Allen, "by giving you every opportunity to enjoy your summer stay on Mt. Oread."
The quadrangle is open every week night during the session except Monday, which are "mixer" night.
Wildcats: The Wildcats came through both their games this week with flying colors after playing two of the strongest teams of the league. In their game Monday they won an easy victory from the Cyclones by a score of 8 to 3 and came back Wednesday to take the Tigers share of the lead by defeating them 18 to 15. By bumping off the Tigers the Wildcats have all claim to the top position. Willie Keeler, Alvin Emch, Art Lawrence, and Dean Nesmith led the Wildcats in their game with the Tigers by all batting 1000 per cent. The battery for the 'Cats was Johnny Hocevar and Art Lawrence doing the pitching, with Pitts doing the catching for both games.
Tigers: The Tigers are runner-up for the week. The striped cats took an easy one from the Sooners, only to be beaten Wednesday by League leaders by a score of 18 to 15. The Tigers gave the Wildcats a terrific scare in the first inning with every man having a turn at bat and scoring 8 runs. The Tigers had to give way to the chattering Wildcats in the third inning and were unable to catch up with them. The battery for the Tigers were Ebelke and Andrews taking turns on the mound, with Blowey doing a fine job behind the plate in both games.
the plate in both games.
Cyclones: The Cyclones split their two games this week, losing their game Monday to the Wildcats by a score of 3 to 6, and coming back Wednesday like a "cyclone" to beat Cornhuskers 8 to 3. Joe "Lefty" Wilkerson do a swell job of ball hurling. The other half of the battery, Kenneth Senter, doing his share of the hitting and leading his team and perhaps the league in chatter. The Cyclones are not to be overlooked until the final whistle has blown. With a fine hitting team and the league's outstanding pitcher they should finish near the top.
Cornhuskers: The Huskers also split their games this week, by beating the Jayhawkers Monday 13 to 12 and losing their Wednesday game to the Cyclones by a score of 3 to 8. Bill Fitzgerald, a newcomer to the Big Six National Softball League, is showing the rest of the teams that it is useless to try to get a hit through him. The battery for the Cornhuskers, Bobby Allen and Capt. Fred King took their turns on the rubber, with Rusty Frink doing all the catching.
Sooners: The Sooners are on the downgrade having lost five straight games. This week they dropped both games by losing the first to the Tigers 6 to 12, and the other to the Jayhawkers 11 to 17. Mosser and Florel doing the pitching, with Pritchard doing the catching. Capt. Paul "Stoner" Masoner in his game with the Tigers knocked the longest fly ball of the season for a four-bagger with nobody on base.
Jayhawkers: The hard luck team dropped a close game Monday to the Cornhuskers by a score of 12 to 13, but came back Wednesday to break their record by beating the Sooners 17 to 11 to give them a place in the winning column. James Miller, the little blonde-headed outfielder for the Jayhawkers, has proven himself as good as any outfielder in the league by catching anything that comes in his territory. The battery for the Jayhawkers were Harold Reade pitching and Roberts doing the catching.

The payoff came when the housemother came over to the Pi K A house Sunday noon for dinner and the boys booed her all the way through the meal. But it didn't do any good. They'll learn the futility of bucking housemothers some day.

Doc Allen seems to have a good thing in his Monday night mid-weeks. We were up a while last Monday to watch. The band, made up from the band campers, was much better than we anticipated. We're going to dance next week.
Having decided to save money by using books at the library this summer instead of buying them we now find that we owe some $2.50 for indiscriminate use of reserve books. It was either that or take a beating in the quizzes. Now it turns out that we might as well not have read the books and we still owe $2.50.
And we were awfully discouraged in Mr. Wiley's band broadcast last week. The band has sounded a lot better, at times.
The Kansan recently received a letter from a vivisection society in regard to an article which was run on dog vivisection in an issue last semester. The vivisection people were all burned up. They said it was better to use human beings than dogs for the purpose because the experiments had to be tried all over again on humans. A nice viewpoint. Wonder if they forgot about the experiments that proved to be the wrong idea when they were tried on dogs.
We'll have to go now. Have an appointment at the bank to redeem our old tax tokens.

"The effect that historical events have had on design can be seen in the "Liberty Bell" pattern which was made in 1876 in commemoration of signing of the Declaration of Independence. Other influences are seen in the "Westward Ho!" the "Garfield," and the "Washington" designs," Mrs. Bayles said.
FREE THROWING CONTEST
Free Throwing contests for both men and women in the new "Goal-Hi" basketball goal are being sponsored by members of the class in Community Recreation.

"The aurora borealis shimmer continually when they can be seen and they make a sound like the hiss of a ship when lashed through the air." Mr. McMillan said.
The longest night of the year occurs in December when the sun is not seen for about two weeks. A day of similar length occurs in June
"The Eskimos like to think that they can make the lights dance by whistling to them. So we all whistle," Mrs. McMillan added.
The McMillans' find the Eskimos to be a pleasant, sociable people. Their houses of spruce logs are clean and well-kept. In them can be found gasoline lamps, sewing machines, and even phonographs.
"They love to make out orders to mail order houses," Mrs. McMillian said.
