UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas VOLUME XXXI NUMBER 54 LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1833 TWO VICTORIES END Kansas Triumphs in First Contest at G. Washington Hafford Intercepts Pass to Make Only Score; Kick by Nesmith Is Good Filling successfully the "Iron man role assigned by them and officials, the University of Kansas Jayhawkers snatched victory from the air in the first meeting with George Washington University in Washington, D. C. Saturday afternoon; it was their second win in three days. Midway in the third quarter Roy Hafford, Kansas halfback, intercepted a Colonial pass and ran 30 yards to the extra point. He added with the extra point from placement. The Jayhawkers twice found themselves near the George Washington goal line as a result of completed passes from Hafford, but they lacked the ball across the goal. The Colonials passing attack failed almost completely. Kansas Goal Threatened Once Only once was the Kansas goal-line seriously threatened, in the last quarter when a 27-yard pass from Plotnik to Wray placed the ball on the 10-yard line. The Colonials were able to advance no farther. The Jayhawkers came close to scoring in both the first and third periods as a result of passes. Brinkman, who played an outstanding game for the Kansans, had a pass knocked from his hands as he stood on the goal line in the first quarter. Passes from Hafford to Bloomfield and Sklar were good for gains of 17 and 28 yards respectively, in the second quarter. Newspaper Account Given The following vivid account of the winning Kansas touchdown is a reprint from the Washington Star: The serrawy hand of fate reached out over the field and guided the Jayhawks footsteps to victory. It was the fourth time the team scored "Tuffy" Leemans, George Washington's ace half back, faded back and attempted a one-hit, three-run attempt. An uncontrolled attempt. Hurried across Kansas linenen, Leemans chucked the ball in Patrin's direction. Hafford, crossing over from the opposite side of the field, pushed the ball further in his flight, 30 yards from goal. Only Chris Doose, with his injured shoulder, stood between Haford and victory. The two came within a inch of each other and lunged forward, but Hafford pranced away from him with a hula-hula motion and, protected by interference which seemed to rise up from the ground, he stepped back. Nesmith made it 7-0 with a placement. Finis Parrish made a dramatic gesture to tie the score, running Methinger's kick-off following the touchdown where he was chased out of bounds by Fred Harris, the only man between him and the Kansas goal.

Farlookers Give Advice for Next Year's Football Season With the football season ended and a couple of last minute victories hitched up to our credit, the majority of the student body can lean back and take it easy for a while. But already next year's football season is under discussion by those that like to look far ahead in such problems. One of these far-lookers wrote his opinion last night in the "Star Beam" column of the Kansas City Star. The article read: "The Kansas Jayhawks ought to learn the virtues of steady hard work from their experience in the recent footballs, but they haven't celebrated tie with Notre Dame, they had no more games for a period of a fortnight, at which point they settled into a slump that lasted a month. Finally, on Thursday, hopped a train for Washington and defeated the strong George Washington team Saturday. Maybe next year if they play a couple of games against the Aggies or defended Homa or the Aggies on Friday, they could give Nebraska a stiff tussle on Saturday." Poetry to Be Lecture Topic John E. Hankins to Discuss Both Writing and Reading Phases Professor John E. Hankins of the department of English will give a lecture entitled "The Writing of Poetry," tomorrow at 4:30 p.m. in room 205 Fraser hall for the benefit of English majors, graduate students in the English department, and all others interested in the writing or reading of poetry. Early in the fall Professor Hankins gave a series of lectures over radio station KFKU dealing with the composition and appreciation of poetry. He gave a similar series last year and in both cases the programs proved to be very popular, according to fan mail received at the station. "I will deal with the subject," Hankins said today, "not from a critical standpoint, but from the poet's point of view. I will attempt to show by example how a poet is thinking and how he is affected by the creation of verse." he added. The lecture will be divided into four parts, the first two of which will deal with the meaning or content of the verse itself, and the remaining two divisions will treat of the poet's technique. Pamphlet on Diets Issued Committee on Health and Housing Formulates Folder for Students The University Committee on Health and Housing has formulated a folder which gives information to students who are "batching" and also to those who are generally concerned in a proper diet. These folders have been prepared under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Sprague of the department of home economics. The food chart is just a simple way of presenting the percentage in which every dollar should be divided for the diet. There is fear that because of financial conditions this year, many students are underweight in their food diet in the wrong way. Copies of the folders will be mailed to interested persons. They may also be obtained at the following places: Home economics department, the Watkins hospital, the Memorial Union, the cafeteria, Dean of Women's office, Men's student adviser's office, the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A. offices. Debating the question of the British system of government radio control, Charles Hackler T37 and Lyman Fields c36, representing the University won an audience decision over the University of Missouri team at Columbia Saturday night. The vote was 89 to 63 in favor of the change, and the negative side of the question. An affirmative team composed of Phil Bramwell and Fields will meet the Missouriors again Thursday night in Kansas City, Kan., debating the same question. HACKLER AND FIELDS GAIN DEBATE VICTORY OVER M. U DRAMA HOUSE BUYS PLAYS OF FORMER HILL STUDENTS George E.

A. musical comedies. Jayhawker Wins Fourth Straight Game From Tiger Nesmith, White and Bloom field Score Touchdowns in Mid Periods By Merle Heryford Kansan Sport Editor Kansas made it four straight shut-outs over the University of Missouri Tigers here Thanksgiving day. Winning by an overwhelming score of 27 to 0, the Jayhawker gridsters easily crushed their 42-year-old foe before 7,000 cheering Homecoming spectators, and should have added at least two more touch-downs but for fumbles and ineffective passing. White scored first on an end run from the Missouri 9-yard line where the ball had been placed after a series of plunging and running plays by the Jayhawkers. Ray Brinkman started the whole drive when he had intercepted a Tiger pass on the Kansas 37-yard line and scored a goal in plunges by White, Nesmith and Brinkman had brought the ball to a scoring position. All of the Jayhawker's scares came in the second and third quarters, although they threatened in both the others. Ole Nesmith twice crossed the Tiger goal; White and Bloomfield scored the other touchdowns. A little later in the same quarter, the Kansans got under way again. A pass from White to beach gained 16 yards. White made 9 yards, and Brinkman made it first and ten for Kansas on the Minnesota field. Brinkman made three more yards and Nevin shouted the remaining 8 yards for a touchdown. He kicked the extra point. Pass Un Scoring Chance Kansas missed another chance in the same quarter when Nessith fumbled on the Tiger 3-yard line, but in the third quarter the Kansas drive began anew. A pass which was batted about freely in the air and which threatened to fall incomplete was finally caught by Casni on the 17-yard line after Bloomfield's running plays had brought the ball into Missouri territory. Brinkman and Bloomfield alternated at carrying the ball, and the later took it across the goal from the 13-yard marker. O'Neil's kick from placement was good. Nesmith made the last touchdown and his second of the game late in the third quarter after intercepting a Tiger pass. He made it to the goal. He kicked the extra point. Although the Tigers took the offensive after the last Kansas touchdown and fought the Jayhawkers almost to a standstill during the last quarter, they threatened to score but once, during the game, in the third quarter. The Tigers got the ball as near as the Kansas 8-yard line on a series of running plays by Lochner and Hatfield, but did not have any success. The stalwart Kansas line broke through. Tiger ball luggers for losses and the threat ended near the 10-yard line. Only Hatfield and Lochiner of the Figers were dangerous offensively, and their threats were minimized by the ineffectiveness of the Missouri line. Many times these speedy backs attempted long runs or line-simches only to find themselves swarmed under by powerful Kansas tacklers. Only the end run proved a ground-gainer for the Tigers. For Kansas, Ray Brinkman, substitute tailback and fullback from Fort Scott, Kansas, was one of the outstanding layers of the game. His passing are unting was a feature, and his limb guarding and defensive work was no less bleu. Tiger Line Weak Kansas LE Missouri Casini LE Schiele (C.)

Mid - Week Varsities Stop "There will be no more mid-week varsities the rest of the semester," said Ozwin Rutledge, student manager of the Memorial Union building. There were four mid-week varsities left, two this month and two in January.

The gymnasium is not available for parties. To offset the cessation of varsities, a free party will be given to the students sometimes this semester. The date and number of holding have not been decided yet.

Action of Replevin Filed by Student to Recover Ticket Case Brought by William Chapple Is Set for Hearing Saturday Morning William A. Chapple, 135, today filed action of replayin against Raymond Nichols, secretary to Chancellor E. H. Lindley, and Henry Werner, chairman of the student activity ticket committee, for the recovery of an activity ticket confiscated Thanksgiving day by checkers the K.U.-M.U. game. The student activity ticket was the Charles A. Springer lead justice of the peace. Notice was served to the defendants this afternoon to appear at the court Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. Chapple's activity book is one of the 30 which were turned over to Henry Werner, chairman of the activity ticket committee, after the game, Thursday, a result of the violation of the rule that the books should not be transferred. These books were taken up by checkers and stilemen because there was some doubt as to whether those and books were the actual owners and those books were the actual owners. Mr. Werner said that the committee would meet as soon as possible to determine what penalty should be imposed on those whose activity books had been taken, though the committee will probably be unable to meet before Friday. Warnings were first given as early as the Kansas State game that the books would be confiscated if they were transferred. Notices were published in the University Daily Kansan, the Lawrence Journal-World, and by posters it was not only a University of defense but also an evasion of the federal tax. If the books that have been taken up are not given back to the students they will lose the privilege of a dramatic production, a concert series number and the right to buy a season ticket for the basketball games at the price of $1.50. Chapple stated today that the action, as filed with Judge Springer, does not ask for damages, but demands the return of the property in question. He argues that the ticket itself does not stipulate any punishment in case it is transferred, hence under the contract which was negotiated when the book was delivered, confiscation is not in order. He will probably appear in his own behaff. Florence Robnett to Speak Will Give Talks for Vocational Guidance Week Program Mrs. Florence S.
