Don't's at the Leap Year Varsity
.. A Couple of Boys Just Get-
ting Together .. The Junior
Pupil .. De Vido Lends an
Earful.
Understand the Leap Year varity is a success in a huge way. Some 230 females purchased tickets for the event, making it the biggest dance, so put a big thing on it and put a thing over it! Be not outdoor, many of them sent courages—some of them queer, but nevertheless, they were corsages! One gave son wearing a lily, Bill Doddridge, A.T.O., from points (not far enough) East, was seen riding in a blue jacket more like a wreath of some sort than anything else. Sorts dead from the neck up—ah, Bill? Duaine Tubbs' one and only Aime Hornet was holding her boy friend (Drano) on with his hand. All mine will be Mist Mill. Some task well bet, and this ought to qualify Miss Hornet for a position in the circus as chief tutter-upper—or something. Sue u.h strength! Hear they plan to hold one of these Leap Year events every year for financial reason—if nothing else!
Merle Bratton and Alfred Dicken seem to be very much worried about a couple of girls over at the Chi O么ehouse. Some well-informed snit, it looks like they are men of the gas' affairs with other men (Ain't it awful?). With large open cars the boys took in every drop of the information that was offered. On objection the girls, who look like the Chi O's will be minded a couple of boy friends in the near future. Ts said indeed what a little gossip will do to (or is it) for love
Hear that Clarke Milliken, m59, and Woodrow Lindsay, c58, have at least two children. They each stays at the same home and each will celebrate his birthday on March 21. Now isn't that nice, and we know he will be doing to knelly this too!
If you want to bear a good (2) story, let Dave Carson, Kansas City lawyer-be-to, and Ray Wagner, Elliott Wilson, the founder of the company they were in while taking an airplane ride in the city this last weekend. Their friends should appreciate their work, but I don't think they'd a wonder they don't lie (some think they do) seated up in little black boxes
Ex-Scoop Hallway, and Ex-Scoop Woods, both former de-composers of this smelly column, were in town to watch the show (?) looking well and healthy (?), which is probably due to the fact that they aren't doing this sort of stuff anymore.
And on the night of March 13, and Friday (Gad—of all nights) we understand that the Junior promenaders will glide to the rhythm of music by more other than the band from the Cotton Club in New York City. All of this, plus the decorations and whatnot, should make the 1926 Junior Prom a gay affair. (We're working for a free ticket!) Hear the orchestra is quite capable of playing the swirling schizophrenic type of music that stuff and you can't beat an outfit like this for adding "color" to a dance! All foolin' ice—let's go!
Freed D. DeVido, now a football player, who worked a few years on Wall Street in New York before entering the University, is giving the possible June graduates down at the Alma Kappa Paise house the "Low-down" on the crucible outside of the university that they'll soon discover the world does not owe them a living (Don't you think such an idea it a little worn out, Fred?)

'Peace or Oil Sanctions,' Says League to Italy
Threat of Embargo Hang Over Mussolini's Decision
(Copyright 1956, by United Press)
Genua, Feb. 2. — (UP)—Great Britain in the fight new dress of her prestige behind oil sanctions proposals tonight in a virtual ultimatum to Premier Benito Mussolini to make peace with Ethiopia and stop the storage of Italy's petroleum supply.
The British favored speedy application of oil sanctions unless peace negotiators conducted concrete hope within a few days. British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden indicated his government's intent to work as well as export of oil to Italy.
While holding the threat of an oil embargo over Premier Mussolini's head the Committee of 13 probably will telegraph both Italy and Ethiopia urging acceptance of the new League mediation.
If satisfactory replies are not received in 48 hours, Eden is expected to take the initiative in applying an oil embargo.
Many delegates expect peace overtures to fail, resulting in oil sanctions before the weekend. France, it was understood, will not oppose the embargo if Italy rejects peace overtures. France's attitude is due to unfavorable public reaction to Marshall Pietro Badiglio's latest victories in Ethiopia and Angola. Russia's Franklin D. Roosevelt's statement of last Saturday indicating the United States government is still discouraging abnormal war-like exports to Italy.

Jayhawker Team To Play Oklahoma In Big Six Game
Ebling Will Try To Better New Scoring Record Set by Groves of K-State
With the possibility of a conference title loss no longer hanging over their heads, the Kansas Jayhawks will meet Oklahoma's third-place team here tonight with the idea of continuing their string of consecutive victories and coming nearer an undefeated defeat. Nebraska set the stage for defeating the top-rank Kansas quintet by trouncing the Sooners, 52-38, last week. However, a slip-up in their planned occurred after Kansas opened in hands and led all the way through the game. Although the entire Nebraska countryside seemed to have turned out to help the Cornushkers whip Kansas into line, the Jayhawkers handed the home boys their initial defeat of the year suffered on their home turf. All three teams have been unable to break Nebraska's home-court jinx.
Scramble for Fourth Place
Oklaha pounced on the Wildcats and took revenge for the drubbing it left in the rankings of the huskers. Although Groves carried the burden of Kansas State score, he was unable to pull the Wildcats out of the mire and into a secure fourth place. Groves' 20 points were not enough to get to Oklahoma, but by which Oklaha secured its hold on third position. At present, Kansas State holds a temporary fourth, but Missouri will push ahead of them if it can do so. Oklahoma held State when the two teams meet in Columbia tomorrow night.
Out of all the scramble for the last five places, Kansas being assured of the lead position, Nebraska and Oklahoma have merged with second and third places respectively. The last three places are still undetermined and there are two possibilities for ties. An Iowa State player will be in the State and Kansas State for fourth. On the other hand, a Missouri victory in that game will shove Missouri into fourth place, at least until after its contest with the Hawkeyws.
**Groves Is High Scorer**
Frank Groves' 20 points in his last game ran his total tally for this year to 128, which brooks the old high-stakes record of 124 points for the season was held jointly by three players. Tom Churchill, Oklahoma cage star and decathlon man who set the record in 1929, was the first. Ray Ebbing matched the score in 1934 while winning the individual high scoring honors for that year Wahliquist, of Nebraska, scored 175 points in the final match exactly the same number with the other two honor-holders.
Ebling's job for his next two games will be to make an average of 11 points per game in order to overshoot the goal. All three players can score all points. All eyes will also be focused on him to see if he can prevent his game average from saging sufficiently to allow Groves or Wahqliht or both to forehead alice of him. The pressure is on groves to win, and a timely advantage in another way. Groves and Wahqliht have no more games in which to add to their respective averages, but Ebling must maintain his An. A game against deffier of Kanaa "two death Rays," below his two forcing contemporaries.
Ebling Holds Highest Average
With a 13.37 average as compared with Groves' 12.80 and Wahquist's 12.40. Ebling has an excellent chance both to break the record and win Big six scoring honors. Kansas team has won the first of its ranking men among in the first 18 high scorers of the conference. Praille ranks about eleventh with 6.88. Allen lower with 6.50; Noble near the lower boundary on 5.57; and Kappelman right on the boundary with 5.25.
