Allen as basketball coach at the University of Kansas has been a remarkable one. Fifteen championships have been won by the Jayzons, and he has one year as coach and the record against individual opponents is equally exceptional. Of the other five teams in the Big Six conference only Missouri has been able to win more than 30 per cent of its games with Dr. Allen's teams. At that, the Jayhawks have won 61 per cent of the Kansas-Missouri games as compared to 39 per cent for the Tigers. Kansas has held its greatest margin of superiority over Iowa State, while Dr. Allen has been the Jay-hawk mentor. His teams have won 85 per cent of their games with the Nebraska and 73 per cent against Kansas State, 76 per cent against Nebraska and 71 per cent against Oklahoma. Doctor Allen first coached the Kansas askball team in 1908 and 1909. After those two seasons, he attended medical school for three years and then went to Warrensburg high school and played sports. In the fall of 1919 Doctor A1-ler returned to the University and now he is in his twentieth consecutive year as basketball coach.

ROYAL COLLEGE SHOP 837-39 Mass. Students Quitting School Find Few Jobs Open Albany, N. Y., Jan. 29- (UF)-A leading New York state educator advises school children to stick to their studies of trying to find work at an early age. Dr. Luther Gulick, director of the state's recent education survey, believes that the situation of employment for youths who leave school at an early age is a new one in the nation's economic system. Dr. Gulick explained that only 20 per cent of the children who leave school at 16 can hope to find employment. Even that number cannot be self-supporting, he said.
