Prize Winners at the Beaux Arts
Ball . . . Conspirators at Work
. . . A New Find in the Dramatic Dept. . . This and That.
The Beaust Arts ball was quite a success—fancy decorations, unique costumes, novel entertainment, good music, and some fun; kid! Bette Wasson, Chi Omega, won the prize for having the most beautiful dress as dressed at Mae West. (Seems more than one girl went West, and there is no telling how many young men did) Frank Ewing, from the Sig Ep Ledge, drew down first prize for the males in his indian garb. And this reminds the "Snow" of a good story—'oil
Frank, same of the Ewings, failed to get his costume from hine in time for the ball, so he decided to borrow one from out Haskell way. He also wanted to get one (costume for date—being the thought that he was going to be there). They asked Frank what size he wore, and he told them. Next, they asked him what size he desired for his date. Frank said, "I don't know, but she's a Fi Phi." This was really giving the Indian a fair rough estimate, and the man kept him a costume with no further delay. Later, he going out at Haskell?
Hear that the "steady" of Paul Rogers, Kappa Sag basketballer, isn't as faithful at times—as she might be. Rogers received a telegram upon his arrival in Norman for the Oklahoma tilt last week from Mary Frances Martin. Cal Queen's alluring asking (or was it telling) permission for a date with "Slicker." We are where he gets his shots. So Berkeley has quite earned up done on a crisip—you might say). didn't answer said telegram, but, Mary Frances knew he wouldn't mind, anyway, so she had the date.
And speaking of this sort of thing—there's another compassor, by name of Wallingford Big Sig, who followed Wallingford sorts after brother Ebling's interests while Ray is away on basketball trips. A fine assistant with Mr. Ebling in a brother Big Sig Alp.
Was told that Dusinie Tubbs, Sigma Chi bewareweight, and Ann Horton, via the Pi Phi house, sat in the theater the other afternoon for fifteen minutes after the program was over. Hereafter—someone beamed at me. Maybe they were waiting for spring, but anyway love—you funny thing!
Preston Anderson, erstwhile Hill bandman, and Norma Wallace, singer for band and bandman, are hitting it off in fair shape. Nice work Preston—in another week or so, maybe you won't even have to pay her rent. And then again—there are always two sides to every argument.
A.T.O.'s Still Quarantined
Understand the dramatic department has uncovered a new actress — the like of which hasn't been seen on this here Hill in many a day. It's also one of the few girls for girl who has never before taken part in a real honest-to-good play. She has the title role in the production "Olympia," which starts its run next month. It stars Emma Swan, Smith, a Theta. She deserves a big hand, and we will think she's get it

Einstein Pupil Locates Astonishing Star In Outer Space
Dr. Sergei I. Gipsochak, a former professor of Einstein, recently discovered "25"<sup>th</sup> the celestial champion in space at the Harvard College observatory.
The scientific name of the star is "S2"
Canis Majoris, which means that it is
the twenty-ninth in the constellation
of the Great Dog.
Dr. Gaposhnik estimates that it is 1,000,000 times heavier than the earth for the same distance. It weighs 42 acrethousand, as compared with the weight of the earth which scientists estimate to be 147,000.
This champion is known to be 100,000 times brighter than the sun, which obviously puts the latter in the shade. Dagepichok estimates that the heat on Gaspicon of the star is 65,000 degrees Fahrenheit of seven million degrees at the interior.

After Performances Here
Play Will Make Road
Tour of State
More tickets have been reserved for the Monday evening performance of "Olympia" than for any of the other nights, it was reported yesterday.

From New York came the request from a man, who according to his letter, had been a minister in schools, caps and gowns, and novelles to schools and churches. This man wanted information concerning the success of the bureau and how it was handled.
The bureau has received numerous requests from persons outside of Lawrence who desire names of students with whom they can correspond. One young man in Oxage, Okla, wrote requesting the name of a woman and included the 10 cent fee, adding that he had a friend named and additional 25 cents. The name was sent, but the bonus never was received.
Although it has received no recent publicity, the University date bureau is still functioning, and according to the creator and manager, quite successfully. The manager states he has been successful in that application, and that applications are plentiful.
The program will be opened by G. Criss Simpson, organist, who will play Ropez "Concert Overture in B Minor."
The Men's Glee Club will make their first public appearance of the year by presenting "Passing By" by Purcel and "Now Is the Month of Maying" by Morley.

All applications from Lawrence have been from students, except one, which was the application of a local school teacher who wished a date with a widower between the age of 45 and 50. The manager wrote back and told her that no one of that age had made application to the bureau but, if any of the former were satisfied with the university applied, he would try to arrange the date.
Practical狱者, nearly caused the failure of the bureau, have not been able to find someone to apply this type of applicant, the manager phones each time he receives an application to find out if it was sent by the person signing it and not by some

"Don't be afraid to work for humanity and wait for your reward," said Dr. Naismith, the originator of basketball, speaking at the ceremony held in his honor between halves of the Kanada State basketball game last weekend.

The appreciation of his work in originating a game that has achieved such great popularity has been reward groom for him.
When the idea of basketball was first conceived, Dr. Naimsih had no ideas the game would develop as it has. He attributes this development to the desire of all young people for activity, teamwork and skill required to play the game.
Expresses Appreciation
Dr. Naismith extended his thanks to the man who had studied basketball and developed it to the point of perfection that was displayed on the court last night. He also expressed his appreciation for the work of those who have carried the game to foreign countries.

A two-minute ovation was given Dr. Naismith by students and townpeople of Lawrence when he was introduced to the honored honoree when Charles Louk, chairman of the Douglas District Boy Scout organization, presented him with a Boy Scout handbook in behalf of a million young boys throughout the nasc-

In speaking of the importance of the sports program in modern life, Chancellor Lindley stated that one of Dr Naismith's most important contributions was the bridging of the seasonal gap between football and baseball.

STAND 23-14 AT HALF
Jayhawk Scoring Ace Has Tallied Over 400 Points In College Play
The Kansas Jayhawkers, paced by Ray Ebling and Ray Noble, continued their march toward an undefeated season by turning back the Kansas State Wildcats, 52-34. last night.
Ebling scored 13 points to lead the scoring for the evening, and with less than a minute to play in the first half, scored the four hundredth point in his college career. Noble and McCormack had but Ebling made three free throws.
Frank Groves, All-Big Six center last year, made nine points to lead the scoring for the Wildcats. Brilliant guarding on the part of Noble kept the Wildcat ace from scoring more. The Jayahawks took the lead at the start on two quick baskets and a free throw by Eling. They were never headed. Early in the game, Noble pulled up within seven points of the Kansu, but that was as close as they ever came to 'ead.

Javhawks Play Clean
The Kansas team played a clean game, only five fouls being called on巾, while Kansas State was guilty of three rule violations. State Team had a perfect night at the free throw line, missing none of their attempts, while the Jayhawks missed
The Jayhawkers played alternately brilliantly and poorly. At times the Kannas handled the hall perfectly and they had an unrestrained spell in which they missed shot after shot. Praille continued in his role of a long range siege gun, and Ebling made several of his famous "strokes" shots. Every man was on the ground at least four points, and this ability on the part of every man to score is one of the reasons why the Kannas team is at the top of the conference.
