UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NUMBER 105 VOLUME XXXII The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas CUNNINGHAM WINS AGAIN AT KCAC TRACK CONTEST on the SHIN BY JOE HOLLOWAY, c'35 We Get Another Letter Dammit . . . Smith Gets Shawn-Conscious . . . An Expose . . . Summerfield on a Rampage. Unfortunately we've received another letter so you have to get it too. After all, there's no reason why you shouldn't have to read these attempts at humor Dear Joe: It has been called to my attention that you conduct a column of sorts in some paper called the Kansan or something like that. I don't see that this should make you a better columnist than myself, but since you have a paper to print your stuff, I shall have offer my comments to you and trust that they will share honors with yours. All items are guaranteed to be as good as new or worthwhile, you might mention the fact and more will appear from time to time. Signed. . The Perennial Freshman. As long as we have the U.S. mail service we can't help receiving smart (?) suggestions such as this, but we can request that suggestions be helpful instead of smestery. If the "Perennial Freshman" will make himself known, we're sure any suggestions would be appreciated and the presses will no doubt receive his dope just as they dours. What's this we hear about Charles Don Juan Smith trying to get a few words in edgewise with Ted Shawn about a job? If this noble news sheet can expose things and stuff there no reason why our section of it can't do the same thing is there? A couple of days ago we saw Jack Richardson and George Guernsey indulging in a little white slave trade in the Union building. The two boys and Ann Hubbard had just had a coke and none of the three seemed inclined to pay for same. Thereupon, Jack and George started asking all of the hads in the place for money, then trying to pay for which monies, Ann would be given to the donor for the remainder of the afternoon. Incidentally, when we left, Annie still had her two originals (Richardson requested that we state the time of the above scene at 4:30 so the fellows at the Sigma Chi house would know he'd been studying.) We hear that Jack Hasburg, the campus' most aloof—why we don't know—has cut Betty Lou MacFarland down to one date a week. He says he must study the rest of the time but we still don't see how he can be so cruel. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, MARCH 3, 1935 Just in case anyone wants to ask us, we, yes heed Red Nichols' program Thursday which was dedicated to K.U. we like the hand fine, we think Ruth Etting's age shows in her attempts to sing which never were so good anyway, and it was nice of them to dedicate that song. And Amanda just as an after-thought, we also knew there was an earthquake early Friday/morning. Thanks to our little friend the Perennial Freshman we hear the story of the Summerfield scholars of local fame who have been seen at one time or another frequenting one of the Kansas City night clubs. (Note to P. Fresh. Night is not spelled nite.) We wouldn't mind the said scholar sticking his nose into a masty night club even though Summerfields are supposed to be good boys, but the story goes that the visits have been so frequent that the last time he dropped in for a quickie, a couple of gals in the club yelled, "Hello Handsome. Glac to see you back!" Well, Lie Shearer got a very fancy cigarette holder from her friend in the Arizona Pen last week and even though she's never smoked, she's resolved to learn. The business has her initials in it, so he might be middle name so he couldn't include that too. Since he takes the Kansan, we'll tell him that it's Perry. Ruth Sue Emerson, c'38. left Friday for a two-year trip to China, Japan and the Philippines. Ed. Hall, Running Unattached, Takes Fifty-Yard Sprint Coulter Cunningham Is Sec and in 880 Run; Shannon Takes Fourth in High Jump Glemm Cunningham outpaced Ellton Brown and Glen Dawson to win the 1000-yard run, the feature race of the revived Kansas City Athletic Club meet held in Kansas City last night, adding another feather to his victorious bonnet, but failed to record a record. The time was 2:16.5. "Chuck" Hornbostel, the famed Hosser flash, who was supposed to furnish the closest competition in the 1000-yard classic was not in the race. His withdrawal was attributed to his poor showing in the 100-meter run at the national indoor meet last Saturday. Cunningham took the lead on the start but out of the closely bunched trio came Dawson to pass the Elkhard Flyer at the end of the first lap. Barely five yards separated the three runners with Brown bringing up the rear. Cunningham ran smooth and easy and made no attempt to pass the leader until the fourth lap when he churned the boards and flitted by Dawson. Brown stepped up and rounded into a made run by Cunningham in the final sprint to the tape he gradually gained to win ten yards ahead of the pressing Brown. Dawson finished five yards behind Brown. Commenting on the race Coach *Bill Hargiss* said: "The start was too slow for a record time, but it was close enough to make it good. We was good under the flat track." The world's record for the outdoor 1000-yard run is held by Becall at 2:10 and Cunningham set the indoor record of 21:11 when he defeated Dawson. Kansas trackman won places in other events. C. Cunningham was second in the 880-yard run; Hall, running unattached, a former Kansas athlete, won the 50-yard dash, and Shumway, winning the 100-meter results of the events are as follows.

The World Purview Conducted by Prof. F. E. Melvin A NEW GERMAN PURGE IMPLIED . . . AUSTRIAN INDEPENDENCE SECURED . . . ENGLAND BE-COAMES LEADER To Americans the dramatic ceremony on March 1 of the return of the Saar to Germany and the ovation given Hitler may seem the chief event of this past week. Many will wonder if Hitler may have done so to Nazi move for Menmu or another try for Austria. But is the moment really so favorable for such steps? The internal situation evidently is not so good, for Hitler has within the week made leadership shifts that imply a possible new purge. He has also been moving to a new name and pronounce through spokesmen a change in his anti-Jewish policies. Above all the Austrian situation has been bettered by the Odyssey of the Austrian chancellor and his foreign minister whose secretive arrival at Paris was a last weekend event. From France they got stronger guarantees for the maintenance of Austrian independence, giving on their part a public declaration that no return of the Hapsburg would be allowed. Moving on to London at the opening of this week's meeting of German assurances from the British government.

JAYHAWKS LOSS PUTS CYCLONES IN FIRST PLACE SECOND GAME. 21 TO 18 Only Hope for Kansas Is Manhattan Victory Over Iowa State in Monday Contest Ebling Held to Two Free Throws During Both Encounters Columbia, Mo., March 2 — (UP) —Chances for a fifth consecutive Big Six title faded tonight for the University of Kansas Jayhawkers when they lost to a University of Missouri team, 21 to 18. It was the second Tiger victory over Kansas in two nights, and virtually assured Iowa State of the title. All the Lowans have to do is beat Kansas State at Ames Monday. If the Cyclones lose, the Jayhawkers still have to defeat the Oklahoma Sooners in two engagements next week. The game was but a repetition of that of Friday night when the Tigers won 23 to 21. Ray Ebling, forward and leading conference scorer, was good for only two free throws, being held in check by the team. He also played a stellar performance at guard. Missouri 21 The box score: Kansas 18 Both sides played close defensive games, and Missouri, in particular was content to get a point or two ahead and then guard their edge. At half-time the Tigers led, 13 to 10. They held the point lead until three minutes before the final game. Then Evan Powell, guard and captain-elect for the 1936 Missouri basketball squad, found an opening and rolled in a basket that put the game on ice. There was no further scoring.
