Meeting Athletic Board - Kansas Foot Ball Conference. The K, U, basket ball team which left Lawrence last Sunday afternoon reached Des Moines, Monday morning and played the Y. M. C. A. of that place in the evening. The game was a good one in every particular. Des Moines had previously won two games from HighlandPark, K. U's old base ball rival, and expected an easy victory over Kansas. But they were carried off their feet by the fast work of the Kansans and were thoroughly beaten by a score of 38 to 23. A crowd of 400 people saw the game. The Kansas boys were well treated by the Des Moines Y. M. C. A. and they thoroughly appreciate it. Tuesday night the K. U. boys played a semi-professional team at Muscatine, Iowa. K. U. was unable to break their clean record of victories on their own floor. The Iowa team outweighed the Kansans by 30 pounds and they used this extra weight to good advantage playing a rough, pushing game. Uprite Conway distinguished himself by calling 21 fouls on Kansas and 1 on Muscatine. Coupled with the rank decisions, the rough play of Muscatine unnerved Kansas and the Iowaans ran away with the game by a score of 40 to 23. Smith and Owens had an unfortunate collision in this game resulting in a cut lip and a sprained wrist for Smith. K. U. was somewhat demoralized when they lined up against Iowa University Wednesday night. Smith was out of the game and although Fees played his position efficiently, the absence of the captain weakened the team. At the end of the first half K. U was only four points behind but was unable to keep the pace. Iowa won by a score of 19 to 27. The officials were perfectly satisfactory. Attendance 300. The game of basket ball with the Indians was in their favor by a score of 31 to 9 for K. U. The game was characterized by much rough playing, especially on the part of Oliver, who should have been put out of the game. The K. U. boys were dissatisfied at the treatment received from the players. The stars for Kansas were Jennings and D. Alford; for Haskell, Oliver and Fallis. Fallis had to his credit 5 goals and 4 freethrows, Archiquette 1 goal, and Oliver 3 goals. For Kansas: D. Alford 6 free throws, und Owens 1 goal. Shawnee was referee; Naismith Shawnee was referee; Naismith and Plank were umpires. On the 3rd the Indians defeated the Jr. Y. M. C. A. at Haskell by a score of 27 to 6. The Athletic Board met Thursday noon for the purpose of considering the numerous applications for foot ball coach. Among the most prominent applicants are Curtis, captain of last year's Wisconsin team, Robinson, athletic director of Brown University, O. K. Williamson, Bert Kennedy, Bennie Owens, John Outland, Hamill, Shaw of Mich and Clinton, of Ames. No definite action was taken. The applications will receive due consideration before a coach is employed. Thursday for the purpose of electing a student manager of foot ball, track captain and a base ball captain. The coach for the 1902 football team will probably be determined upon at that meeting. The Board will meet again next The meeting of representatives of Kansas colleges in Topeka last Saturday resulted in the organization of the Kansas College Athletic Conference. The object of the meeting was the promotion of amateurism and the elimination of the wrangle over "elegibility" which has usually accompanied any important football game between Kansas schools. The organization has invited Dr. Hetherington, of Missouri University to settle disputes which may arise between Kansas Colleges during the coming year. "Professionalism," committed before January 1, 1921, is excused, but any man who receives money for athletic services after that date will be barred from taking part in collegiate contests between the signers of the Topeka Conference rules. This action applies principally to men who may have received piy for playing base ball in the summer, yet who are amateurs as far as college athletics are concerned. The following institutions were represented; Bethany College of Linsdorg,Washburn,Ottawa,State Normal, Baker and Kansas University. Prof. Parmenter of Baker was elected president and Prof. Sterling of K.U.,secretary. wwwwww Literary Societies. The Kent Club and the X. Y.

BAKER WINS. OPPOSING TRIO TAKE THE PALM. Large and Enthusiastic Audience Hear a Discussion of one of the Most Vital Questions of the Day. The thunders [of oratorical artillery have ceased and with the Baker invincibles lies the palm of victory. The K. U.-Baker Debate held Friday evening in University Hall, attracted a large concourse of loudly-loyal, enthusiastic students. The Baker contingent were accompanied by about one hundred and fifty lusty rooters and the Hall reverberated with the consequent contest in yelling. The crowd was very demonstrative and when in the fierce rivalry, the pent-up excitement of the occasion burst forth, dignity and reserve fled and everybody yelled. The crowd was withal good natured though the taunting repartee was often keen and acrimonious. The general surprise now is that the "Bakers," who are naturally "Loafers," could rouse from their apathy sufficiently to produce such winning material. The question for discussion was, "Resolved, That a permanent income tax would be a desirable part of our system of federal taxation." The affirmative goal was defended by K. U. while to Baker was assigned the negative. G. E. Cassity officiated at the contest. Before the clash of arms Frank Smith favored the audience with an excellent solo which elicited loud and vociferous applause. Mr. C. W. Kline first speaker for the affirmative was then introduced. Mr. Kline with few prefatory remarks launched into the midst of the debate. He held that by reason of increased governmental expenditures, a question of time only remained to declare the present system of taxation inadequate. With skillful exposition he shows wherein the proposed Income Tax was the desirable substitute. Mr. Kline's style is logical and concise, and the presentation of his ideas was much enhanced by bodily expression. Mr. A, E. Kirk of the negative now stepped forward. In well expressed rebuttal he endeavored to show that the apparent deficiency of the present system of taxation was vindicated; that the adoption of income taxation was despotic usurpation of power and eventually meant class legislation. Shrewd, clear, logical, Mr. Kirk made favorable impression upon the audience. His ease and self-command were admirable. The audience was greatly delighted that Mr.E.H.MeMath was able to appear next and assume his part in the contest. Current report had circulated that sickness would detain him, and his appearance roused great enthusiasm. In the very outset he made a favorable hit, by his neat turn in the negative's pension rebuttal. McMath in his argument tended to show the absolute necessity for greater governmental income and the sufficiency of the present taxation in vogue. His portion of the debate dealt largely with statistics, that frightful bugbear of public speakers, but clear, spicy, pointd on his presentation, he held the audience in rapt attention and his efforts were met with much well merited applause. J. W. Reid of the negative spoke next. The ground covered by this speaker was practically the same as that of the foregoing debaters. He held that the same income tax was inimical to the real interests of the country, subruled its purpose and would lead to most willful evasion. The statistical features of his address were well handled. Mr. Reid's youthful appearance would not suggest his calm self-possession on the rostrum. His fine voice and forceful delivery made a most pleasing impression upon the audience. No amount of negative expostulation could swerve Mr. H, H. Tangeman, the next speaker, from the idea of ultimate and permanent success in the income tax. The justice, equity and general desirability of such a system of revenue were effectively portrayed. Mr. Tangeman substantiated the affirmative premises by ingenious and logical proof. The practical elimination of the trust, and the checking of the present invasion of corporations were a few of the manifold blessings an income tax regime was to usher in. The employment of charts and diagrams elucidated many obstruse points in the argument. Mr. Tangeman as a public speaker conducts himself well. His argument is tersely and rationally expressed, and throughout a logical sequence is apparent. In J. R. Pickell, the best of the Baker trio was found. Mr. Pickell may be sweet to the ladies but he is permanently sour on income taxes. In his address one found an epitome of this colleague's arguments. With almost shocking perversity; he insisted that the panacea for all future governmental ills lay not in an income tax. At times his delivery approached the dramatic but without detraction. His enunciation was also very good and his subject matter betokened deep and discriminative study. Final rebuttal was offered by Messrs. Tangeman and Kirk respectively. The case now rested with the judges, Rev. Russell, Judge Norton and Mr, Piers. These officials returned a unanimous verdict in favor of Baker.
