FIRST BIG GAME
ATLAWRENCE WAS EASY FOR KAN
SAS UNIVERSITY.
31 TO 6 TELLS THE STORY BRIEFLY
Topka Does Not Know the Game and Cannot Afford the 'Variety Good Practice—K. U. Was in Good Form and Played Fast Ball—Wm. Sutton's Good Throwing Was a Marked Feature.
Perhaps fifty people were at the rink Friday evening to see the first big home game of basketball. The gas was frozen up and after the usual throw out, the band played its old familiar air and the game began, K. U. winning the east goal.
Before the game was called there was some little doubt as to the outcome, but the ball had been in play only a moment or two when the 'Varsity began to show its superiority.' The visitors showed up quite well in practice but seemed out of place and unacquainted with the game.
After two minutes of play Sutton threw a goal and the first applause was heard. This gingered the 'Varsity boys' and they played so fast that the visitors could offer but little interference. The same spirited play lasted throughout the first half and when it was over the 'Varsity had scored nineteen points, while Topeka had scored four. Sutton had made four field goals and one foul goal, Hess three field goals and Emley two.
In the second half, Topeka warmed up for a little time and scored after about three minutes of play. The visitors had learned the "Varsity tackles and put up a fair interference for a short time. They were unacquainted with the "roly boly" game and weakened when this was brought into play. The game was however, more interesting in the latter half than in the former. Topeka seemed to have caught a little ginger.
The Topeka team was composed of good men but they are not basket ball players. The team contained the long and the short, the heavy weight and two betweens of the Y. M. C. A. The men were not adopted to their positions nor to each other, their traning seemed inefficient. The lack of team work was evident. Day, who played left forward for Topeka is a good man and ought to play the game well with more practice. Griggs who played center also showed up well.
The game through-out was free from rough-playing and objectionable features. The following shows details of the game:
FIRST HALF
The Varsity team contained men of somewhat equalsize. It was evident that they had played more basket ball than their opponents from the manner in which they worked] together. All of the men played well. During the latter half Emley retired and Avery took his place.

FOWLER SHOP NOTES
The machine and forge rooms presented a very animated appearance Monday afternoon when shop work was resumed. In spite of the fact that this was the first regular shop work, everything moved off without the slightest hitch, a fact due largely to Mr. Ward's efforts to have everything in the proper state of readiness.
The dynamo testing laboratory is the only department in which practical nothing has been done yet, owing largely to the fact that none of the dynamos ordered by Professor Blake for this work, have arrived yet. Notice, however, has been received that some of them are on the way, and when they arrive the laboratory will be fitted up as rapidly as possible.
Messra. Stone and Chester, junior electrical engineers, have completed an extension of the south line shaft into Prof. Palmer's testing laboratory, where work will begin in testing strength of materials.
The shops have not entirely escaped the effects of the cold weather, on the whole however, the large rooms have been comfortably warm, with the exception of the engine and boiler rooms.
The latter in particular has been very cold the temperature varying very little from that out-of-doors.
Professor Blake has received notice that the new switch board is in transit. When it arrives it will be put in place and the temporary one removed to make room for the new generator. These changes will add much to the appearance of the engine room.
The seventy-one students now assigned to regular shop work are taxing the equipment of the shops to its full capacity. However, this state of affairs will be somewhat relieved when the four new lathes, which the department expects to build, are finished. In order that work on them may be pushed as rapidly as possible, the castings and parts of the old lathes have been brought up from the boiler house and placed in the machine room as many of the parts of the old lathes, not damaged to any great extent by the fire, will be used in the construction of the new ones.

MOULTON WNS.
FOR FOOTBALL MANAGER.
On Monday and Tuesday of this week politics were again rampant, the center of interest on this occasion - being the annual election of the Athletic Association, and the first one under the new constitution. On Tuesday especially, the local politicians could be seen buttonholing all doubtful voters, and if their efforts now are a presage of their future achievements in the same line, the K. U. alumni ought easily to control the political destiny of the nation.
The Ten-Seconds Man Walks Away from
The chief, and practically the only contest was over the 'football managers for which F. R. Moulton and J. C. Battome were candidates.
The support of both the-barbs and the fraternities was divided and it was evident that the contest was to be a close one.
More enthusiasm was aroused than is usual on such occasions and the tendency on all sides seemed to be to "whoop 'er up" for the Athletic Association. Almost every member of the association and many of the outsiders were active partisans, and even the faculty did not escape the general canvas but had to take their turn in being accosted by the workers for the respective candidates. Their votes were just as much in demand as those of the students, and their positions as eagerly inquired.
It was evident that Moulton had the support of most of the barb politicians and likewise the rank and file. The Betas were also supporting Moulton while the Phi Pis joined the standard of Lord Butterton and went down again in defeat.
When the meeting was called to order Tuesday noon by Professor Adams, he faced a large and enthusiastic body of stockholders who were divided in two factions, each determined to elect its man. Printed tickets bearing the names of the men each side wished to elect to the board had been freely distributed. Both tickets also contained the name of J. W. Green for president and in addition the Buttner ticket had the names of candidates for the six committees.
The first division came on Elliott's motion to elect first the four members of the board. This came rather as a surprise, but was carried on a roll call by a vote of 72 to 32.
P. S. Elliott placed in nomination for the board Messrs. C. E.Rose, Frank Pratt, Porter Fones, and Ad Housh. E. J. Lelard then nominated Messrs. H. C. Avery, Robert Landers, W. F. Mitchener and M. A. Smith.
While the tellers were counting the ballots for the board, Dean J. W. Green was unanimously re-elected President, and a motion was carried providing for adjournment after the announcement of the votes, thus putting off the election of committees until another-meeting, to be called by the President.
The vote for the Board was as follows:
Avery, 51; Landers, 47; Mitcheler, 48;
Smith, 48; Rose, 58; Pratt, 61; Fones, 63;
Housh, 64.
The result was a substantial victory for the Moulton forces and if the faculty confirms the action of the student body, Moulton will be the manager of the '99 football team. With the co-operation of two such men as Moulton and Avery there is no reason why K. U. should not have a football team next fall which will distance both our own representatives in the past and anything that the surrounding states can put up to oppose us.

The first meeting in February was called to order by the newly elected president, W. H. Anderson. In his inaugural address, Mr. Anderson throw out some timely remarks by way of encouragement, as well as of praise, for those constant in attendance, and urged that a large number be present at the meetings.
Mr Torrence opened the regular literary program with a speech entitled "The Lawyer's Position in Society." He spoke of many prominent men who were lawyers and showed their influence as "shining lights" and "landmarks" in the world's history.
O. O. Lane gave an impromptu speech. The subject assigned him was "The Probable Political Issues of 1900." Mr. Lane mentioned two topics which he thought probable issues: the silver question' and the expansion policy.
After W. S. Hyatt had rendered a humorous recitation the debate was taken up. The question under consideration was whether or not the state should be compelled to pay its witnesses in criminal cases. Supporting the affirmative were, Messrs. Vale and Whitaker, opposing, Messrs. McGill and Brady. The decision was given to negative. The committee on procuring a portrait of President McKinley, Mr. Hyatt, chairman, asked for further time and it was accordingly granted.
There are new and interesting facts being learned all the time. There was one learned in Dr. Naismith's Physiology class the other day that will long be remembered by the class. The professor asked a boy what was the composition of bones. The boy seemed puzzled, and to help him out the doctor asked: "Well, what do you get when you boil a bone?" The boy's face brightened immediately, as he answered with confidence, "Soup," and settled back in his chair with a relieved air. The professor's self possession seemed seriously disturbed and for a few moments he joined the class in an audible smile.
