Kansas Loses To Army Team
The Herington Army Air Base baseball team was too much for a young Kansas team and they won by 12 to 4 in their game yesterday at stadium field.
Although the Jayhawks held the army team scoreless the first inning and pushed a run across for themselves in the initial frame they were unable to stem the tide of runs that crossed the plate.
The pitching was very unsteady at times, and the fielders made several costly bobbles. Scalzo went on the mound in the fifth inning and pitched the best ball of the day. He let the army have only on man on in the fifth, sixth, and seventh and not a ball went to the outfield during those innings.
At times the Jayhawks looked good and showed that if they improve at their present rate they will make considerable trouble for their future opponents. The catching is still a weak spot in the line-up. The hitting is fair with Farber and Rohrbaugh still carrying the brunt of the load.
Score by innings:

Herington 052 200 030 12 13 3
Kansas 100 001 020 4 7 6

These two men were hired when instructors 'were needed for army trainees, but as they have left there is no need for such a large staff.

(cont'd from page one)
"Birth of a Nation" depicts the trials of Northern and Southern lovers in the Civil War era, pictures the Negro problem in the South following the war, and shows the activities of the Klu Klux Klan. Better Than 'The Wind'
Both ambitious attempts to picture this phase in American history, "Gone with the Wind" and "Birth of a Nation" have naturally been compared. According to Professor Crafton, movie critics agree that "Birth of a Nation" is much the better picture, in spite of the modern equipment and knowledge used in the production of "Gone With the Wind."
Stars in the movie are Lillian Gish and Henry B. Marshall. Wallace Reed, who in the early twenties seems to have been a combination of Frank Sinatra and Errol Flynn, got his start in this movie. He takes the part of a brawny blacksmith. Donald Crisp Appears

Donald Crisp is perhaps the only actor known to students who appears in the film.
According to Joy-Miller, chairman of Forums Board, the movie will be shown free of charge. The film will begin at 7 instead of 7:30 Thursday evening, she said, because of its length.

Best H.S. Editorial Is Reprinted in Paper
"This Is Our Kansas," the Guidon, Hayes high school prize winning editorial, was reprinted in the Publishers Auxiliary, a journalistic trade paper published in Chicago.
Based on William Allen White's famous "What's the Matter With Kansas," this editorial was written by Marjorie Burtscher. Submitted in the recent high school newspaper contest, it was considered the best of the 49 editorials entered. The judging committee consisted of faculty members of the University's department of journalism.
On the same day, the Auxiliary also ran the editorial which won first place in the Kansas Press Women's contest. Entitled "We Need the Marion Hospital," this editorial, written by Mildred Hunt Riddle of the Marion Record-Review, exposed the fact that although the Red Cross goal in that district had been oversubscribed, the local hospital was being closed for lack of funds.
Mr. Beth was the sole judge of the editorial division of this contest which was the fourth news contest. he has judged this year. Others included a national contest and one for the Kansas Authors' Club.
