Oh to Be a Governor's Daughter . . . So Be It . . . the Ladies Shall Play Pool . . . Chancellor Plays Games . . . Pyle Gets Her Fees on Thursday
Good peoples—we're mad! Just plain mad you know, like in mad. For four good years we've slaved away our lift in this beehive of people trying to get away from an education; we've finally reached the point where we get a couple of hours of A now and then and even though no one seems to be any too interested about it, it makes us feel pretty good to get them. Then what do we do we glance at the K.U. column of the Journal-World and see the whole d—headline space dedicated to the Governor's daughter who not only made five hours of A but also had scarcetina. You see the whole makes us sore at heart, not because we made five hours of A, too, not because we are not the Governor's daughter and no one wants to write headlines about our A's. What terrible future can the world hold for us?
Bolt Cochrane reports several requests for a "Ladies' Night" in the Memorial Union billiard room. Don't tell us that the ladies are going to that common-Mother always told us to stay away from pool halls.
There comes a time in every man's life when he must shew on the end of the Western Union's penel, stand on this foot and that, gaze intently at everything in the office, try to get an inspiration from the clicking of the typewriter and telegraph keys, and then ask the operator, "What the hell's the best way to use just ten words in a wire to your gift?" That problem is solved with the ninth degree maths by the young fellow who sent one of our coheses the following: "I love you, I love you, I love you, Love—John."
Flash: Our Chancellor, while blind-folded successfully pinned the tail on a donkey at the Newcomer's party last week.
Some of the lads at the Phi Delt house had their ladies fair at the house for dinner last week and, trying to put on the old grand manner, had plants brought in to the girls while they were at the table. Al McClarek knew that fair Margaret Pyle cared not a farthing for plants of the potted variety and furthermore, he knew that she had been trying to stifle an awful yearning for some gold fish. Consequently, Al purchased the lady some gold fish to be brought in to her when the flowers were carried in for the others. For saftays sake, he put the little viggles in a milk bottle and in came the waiter bearing the bottled-trout on a tray. He sat them in front of Margaret and reports state most emphatically that the gel knew not whether to wind her watch or go to the variety in a lamp shade.
We hear that the Beta's voted to deposit ten smackers in a local bank, both the interest and the ten to go to the first male heir of the recent Bud Sands-Louise Eviston merger. Very, very thoughtful indeed.
If we had the inspiration of the person who plays the lead in the following drama, we'd really put some color into this bit of type. It was in a class in critical writing and the members of said class were criticizing a painting of the sea-or do the best people call em sea-scapes? Anyway, the budding critic spoke lushly of the blue tones or something of the water depicted on the canvas and stated that they made him think of music by Liebstraum. Even so my pretty, and mayap he do those glgony days remind 'tse of paintings by George Geranih, Berlin, and Tiger Rag"?
What's this we hear about Ben Givens receiving three valentines of the "love"? type in the mail, all of them signed "Baby Doll"?

The Jayhawk will be available Thursday instead of Friday at 1:30 at the WSQA. Book Exchange in the morning, followed by Marks the editor, announced yesterday.

Cunningham Breaks Baxter Mile Record
VENZKE TRAILS GLENN 30 YARDS AT FINISH LINE
Kansan Wins Feature Race of New York Meet; Bonthron Crosses Tape in Third Place
SETS PACE AT 4:09.8
New York, Feb. 16.—(UP) - Running a perfectly gauged race, Glenn Cunningham, of Kansas University, tonight captured the Baxter Mater, feature of the New York Athletic Club meet, outrunning a brilliant field, which two rivals, Gene Venkus of Pennsylvania, and Bill Borthon of Princeton.
Cunningham's winning time was 4:08.4, for a new record for the historic Baxter Mile. The former record was 4:10, set by Venzela in 1932. That mark was overturned when he finished which Cunningham bettered by completing the mile in 4:08.4 in 1934.
Ny, Champion of Sweden. Disappoints Crowd by Dropping Out
The rugged Kansan with the flame-scarred legs was content to trail the early pace setters in the first few laps, but when five of the eleven laps were completed, running like a machine, he entered into the lead, and won going away.
Cunningham, who has now won 4 out of 7 races scheduled against Bill Bonthron, finished a good 30 yards ahead of Venzek, who again surprised a metropolitan track crowd by beating the great Bonthron.
Eric Ny, champion of Sweden, again proved a disappointment. He set the pace for the first five laps, but ran him out, dropping into fifth place, and when the seventh lap was completed, he quit a moment later.
Harry Williamson, of North Carolina, helped Hyne set the pace in the early running, but moved back to third position at the fourth lap, and finished in fourth.
Cunningham broke his first record in the mile run when he ran it in 4:31.4 at the Kansas Relays in the Spring of 1909. At that time he was running for the Elkhart High School. He first ran in the Baxter Mile in the winter of 1933 in 4:14.3 Last year at the Baxter Mile he was nosed out by inches by Bill Bonthon of Princeton. This time his time was 4:14. A few weeks after the Baxter race he established his new world record for the mile when he ran it. He ran the best race of his career at the Princeton Invite meet last summer when he established the new world's record, in the fast time of 4:06.7

Home for only two days of practice after their successful campaign to Lincoln, the Kansas baskettles leave tonight for Ames to meet the Iowa State quintet in one of the crucial games of the season. The Amesmen, who have lost only two games and now hold second place in a national opposition as a loss would probably eliminate their title chances.
coach, Dr. Forrest C. Allen, basketball coach, announced yesterday that the same nine men that went to Lincoln would make the Iowa trip, leaving on the Santa Fe tonight at 9:35. Those players are: Ebless, Wells, Alley, Gargel, Kappelman, Noble, Oyler, Shaffer, and Roers.
Wells, who will take over his old duties at center, will form the only change in the starting string from that used against Nebraska. Noble relieved Wells for the first sixteen minutes against the Cornhuskers due to Wells' weakened condition. Ray Ebling, the scoring ace, and Allen, who has been going after him all the way forward posts, Gordon Gray and Kappelman are set to check the Iowa State onloung in the guard positions.
Leading the attack for the Cyclones will be Wegner, high-scoring center, and Cowen, flashy forward. Holmes and Captain Hood will guard.
The Kansas coach looks for the toughest opposition of the season tomorrow. Coach Louis Menze's men, who Friday night lost a non-conference engagement to Drake University 45 to 42, will attempt vengeance on the Kansans who also stand in their way in the Big Six title race.
The game will be officiated by E. C. Quigley of St. Mary's College, popular referee at Lawrence University, and Henry Hasrock, of Iowa University and also athletic director for the Des Moines Y.M.C.A.
Kansas won in the first meeting of the two squads in Lawrence last Saturday 15-18, the win attributed to smooth functioning of the Kansas five. If they can repeat the performance for the Ames audience, Court Allen believes the result will be another Kansas win.
