Three competent judges will select the prize-winning play. In case no play worthy of production is submitted, the award will be withheld. Manuscripts should be mailed to Seifed at Washburn College.
Radio Play to be Re-broadcast As Result of Technical Trouble
The radio class of the speech department will present "The Cross-roads" for the second time in the regular broadcast Monday at 6 p.m. (10 a.m. on Tuesday) two weeks ago, technical difficulties at the radio station made broadcasting impossible before the play was finished. Because of the many requests of persons who wanted to know the outcome of the play, the management type of radio play, it was decided to give the play a second time.

Along the Sideline By William Fitzgerald, c'39 Kansas Sports Editor
History was repeating itself yesterday afternoon as the Kansas Jayhawkers fought Michigan State to a standstill for three quarters only to see the Spartans come back and score 16 points in the final quarter. Two years ago, at East Lansing, Kansas fought State on even terms until the final half, when the Kansas regulars wore out and Michigan State ran over some forty-odd points.
It was that way again yesterday in a somewhat lesser degree. The regular Kansas line more than fought the Spartans off in the first half, but the Jayhawkers didn't play the game. The play that turned the tide came with Kansas in an advantageous position on their own 47, with the third quarter almost over. However, the Spartans blocked one of the second time during the game and took possession on their own 49.
Kansas held for three downs and on the fourth down, with ten yards to go, the Spartans pulled a fast one. Instead of kicking, Cloekl fired a pass to Kinek, who was pulled down on the Kansas 17. An end to the game, the Kansas eight-yard line, and Cloekl plunged to the five for a first down. It took the Spartans all four downs to put the ball over, but Cloekl plunged through the score on the fourth down. The game should have ended that way with State in front, and the Spartans scored, saw Kansas folding so closely.
Douglas fumbled a punt on his own 17 to start the drive, and a short time later Nelson blocked one of Cadwalader's punts and the ball rolled out of the end zone to give State a safety. Then, with the game practically over and the Kansas team still in possession of reserves, Fingal shot a pass to Nelson on a sleeper pass that caught the Hawks flat-footed. Not a hand was laid on Nelson as he scored the Stantons' second touchdown.
The final score was Michigan State 6, Kansas 0, but Kansas shouldn't eladly. The Jayhawkers put up a good fight against a team that winks with the best in the nation. It is not even yesterday's game will have, very little effect on the sales of tickets here for the Nebraska game.
Kansas Highlights--The first quarter was almost entirely a kicking duel between Repogle of Kansas
and Pingel of Michigan State, Replogle's kicking and defensive work in the first period were little short of Michigan State back on their heels.
. . . Dick Amerine threatened to break loose shortly after his insertion in the second quarter, Amerine dashed through left tackle for five yards and on the next play van right down right for twenty or more.
Hall saved a first half touchdown by brining C丘ek down on the Kansas 15 after the State star had run 36 yards.
Michigan State couldn't dent the regular Kansas line for a first down until late in the second quarter. Lewie Ward was a powerhouse and Silinkan were making more than their share of the tackles.

partisan members of the faculty who either had a lot of fortitude or who were just naturally reckless and careless cases were very touchy about losing.
Personalists Are Very Personal Some of the personal items in the Gazette were so personal that probably only one or two persons knew who was being referred to. Some examples were;
"Maria has gone where the grass-hopper falls.
"Armor has returned frm two ma-ween's visit to Palmyra. We believe everything is lovely in that vicinity." "V. R. Eliot will soon sway the birch. (Probably the sooner the better.)
"It is rumored that there is some danger of the sophomore class disbanding. Let them be faithful!"
"One of the prominent Orophil-
ians very much desires an introduction to certain of our lady members (The cad.)
"A stormy time last Friday night (Referring to the Orophilian meeting.)
(The want ad column carried a very touching notice. Here 'tic) for SALE. A full set of patient records, more modern. Apply to L. L. Kirk.
"Come girls, we have waited long enough for that volunteer performance." (Probably a bubble dance.)
"The Texas fever has somewhat abated during the past week.
P. S. If they are not sold within three weeks he will donate them to the society for a nucleus for a life, or to doubt the library got a nucleus.)
Humor Very Rare
The jokes in the Gazette were quite side-splitting. For instance they ask, "When is the best time to set fence posts?" Answer—"When they are ready to set. (Are you dying?)
And here's another equally as good. "Joke." An author frequently mentioned in the game of croquet.
"You've got a scissor (shaw). (Boy, were they profane?)

tical jokes even in 1872. The story is told of the young lady who received a note from a very devoted gentleman friend asking her to accompany him to the great Champion show on May 4th. After pondering for quite some time on whether it would be the proper thing to do, she finally sent him a note, accepting the invitation. Later she found that she had been "fearfully sold" by two "everlasting girls" at the theater she sheoed. She really wrote a note and when the joke was uncovered "laughter shook the house for days." (Must have been hard on the house.)
A humorous article on the coming of spring was doubly humorous to the modern reader. Here are a few excerpts: "Spring is generally supposed to succeed winter. The exact time has not been determined. It is a great lagrant this year. Long have we called, 'Come, gentle spring, breathe.' But now it took passage on the U.P.R.R. and was blockaded by snow. There should be a damage suit in order if this is the case."

But getting back to the literary societies. Editor Noyes asks, "Oh what would the University be without Ouread Society?" It would have no charm for me." (Noyes must have been a character.) "Please 'please' or 'truckin'" or maybe the Pi Ph's weren't as active in the good old days as they are now.)
