In the open cockpit the pilot's hands nearly froze to the stick, but he kept the plane under control and the high wind toward the ground. As he reached lower levels the wind slackened and the speed of his ship increased. Faster and faster the plane descended with the wind singing about the cockpit and Colton desperately seeking an open spot on which to land. A street in a suburb presented the only possibility, and Colton chose it. The ship plowed head-on into a network of wires. Both wings were stripped from the plane, but the wires broke the fall, and it dropped easily to the pavement. Colton was unhurt.

Beginning Today Allen Orders Rest for Two Regulars Kansas Coach Believes Lay- Off Will Help Harrington and Johnson K - AGGIES NEXT FOE A three day lay-off from practice, beginning today, has been ordered for Bill Johnson and Paul Harrington of the University of Kansas basketball team, it was announced by Dr. F. C. Allen, coach, today. The players apparently have gone "stale" and Dr. Allen hopes that a complete rest from teams is necessary to recover them to their usual condition and basketball efficiency. Friday they will work out in the final practice prior to the crucial game with the Kansas Angels at Manhattan Saturday night. Harrison has gone 10-6 on offense and does not play through the entire game against Iowa State. Saturday, while Johnson scored but three points against Missouri and made 10 points against Iowa State. Johnson also was taken down by the Browns and Dr. Allen will practice with Uri re- Dr. Allen will practice with Uri re- placing Harrington, and Wells going to center and Bob Curd to forward, while his two stars are resting. Facing another crucial test in their drive for the Big Six basketball championship, the Kansas Jayhawks yesterday started a week of practice in preparation for the Kansas State game at Manhattan next Saturday night. Kansas Still Has Edge With three teams still very much in the running for the title, anything can happen to the conference standings in the next two weeks. Kansas has the worst record in the hard by both Oklahoma and Missouri. The Tigers have defeated Kansas and Oklahoma on consecutive weeks recently and, if they can break the jinx that has been following them on their way to the final, determined best for first place honors. The Sooners, favorites to win the championship since early in the season, are tied with Kansas for first place at the present time, and do not play again until a week from Friday, when they come to Lawrence for a game that may decide the race. This engagement will wind up the season for the Joywackers, who compete on to Lincoln the following night to finish its schedule against Nebraska. Two Victories Needed NUMBER 107 To win the championship and repeat their victory of last year, the Jayhawks must win both of their remaining games. There is a possibility of a two or three way tie if Kansas should break even in the two contests, losing to the Tigers. In the second Granting that Oklahoma will defend Nebraska the night after the Kansas game and conceding the Tigers victories in their remaining games would leave all three teams knotted with seven victories and three defeats each. The Nebraska hosts of the Saints can keep the Jayhawks from at least trying for the title. Coach Forrest C. Allen will continue to drill his players throughout the week. It is possible that there may be one or two changes in the starting lineup that faces the Angels Saturday night, but such shifts are by no means certain. UNDERWOOD ACCOMPANIST IN TWO MORE CONCERTS Professor Roy Underwood, pianist of the University Fine Arts faculty, went to Emporia this afternoon to be a accompanist in the concert to be given there this evening by Alexandre Gretchaninoff and Albert Rappaport in their concert here.

Cyrus Crane Makes Plea for High Law Standards Cyrus Crane, president of the Missouri Bar Association, in an all-school address to the School of Law this morning, made a plan for increasingly higher standards of ethics in the practice of law. President of Missouri Bar Association Tells Students of Ethics "The practice of law is not a business, but a profession," he said. "It should be marked by the practice of truthfulness and fruitfulness, honesty, and integrity." He condemned what he called "racketeering" practices that had crept into the profession of law through persons who sought personal gain without reason, and the anubilance chasers, and the lawyers who encouraged bankruptcy cases. Mr. Crane declared that in recent months, the number of banks in the Chicago area had decreased from 201 to 60, and that from the funds of the 202 now in liquidation, vast sums were diverted in costs and taxes to law- As president of the Missouri Bar association, Mr. Crone is endeavoring to have the Missouri legislature pass laws that will strengthen the bar association and enable it to discipline members who fall short of proper legal ethics. "The practice of law is not necessarily one in which to make a great deal of money," Mr. Crane said, "but it is one in which I personally have found a good living, and a great amount of enjoyment." Concert Given Last Night Greetaninoff and Rappaport Are Assisted by Professor Underwood A good-sized audience attended the concert presented by Alexreut Grehanich, Russian composer and pianist, who appeared last night in the Administration Auditorium in a program devoted largely to his own compositions. With him was Albert Ruppaport, a professor of music at the School of Fine Arts faculty assisted the visiting artists due to the illness of their accompanist. Opening the program was a group of seven songs by the Russian composer, including such universal favorites as "The Wounded Birch Tree," "Over the Steppe," and "Bercuse," which introduced Mr. Rappaport to his audience. The composer was at the piano. Preceding all his numbers, which were sung in French, was an explanatory talk prepared for his audience what was to follow. His second group of numbers was chosen from Mozart, Schubert, Strauss and Dunitz and as sung, were spendid playing in the quartet. Particularly outstanding was his rendition of the Mozart Aria from Don Giovanni "Il Mio Tesoro" and the Strausa "Zuegiming." To close the program Mr. Rappaport brought to his audience a group of children's songs from the pen of Mozart. He and his group recited his eight Jayhawk to Run in Curb Exchange 800-Meter Race Cunningham Faces Half Milers; New York Paper Lauds Kansas's Ability 'NOT ORDINARY MILER' Glen Cunningham, Kansas miler, who has defeated Gene Venke, Pennyglya freshman, twice in the mile run, will test his ability in the 800 meters run, five yards less than a half mile, tonight against a field of crack half milers in the New York Curb Exchange His rivals will be Phil Edwards, McGill University, Canada; Fran Nourdell, New York University; George Bullock, Duke University; Clyde Clob and Glen Dawnen, Tulsa. This is the first meeting of Cunningham and Edwards since the Olympic games in Los Angeles, when Cunningham lost to Edwards in the 1390-meter Lindley Sends Climing Chancellor H. L. Lindsey sent to the Kanan this morning a clipping from Sunday's New York Times sport page in which an entire column is devoted to Cunningham and his latest victory over Venkze. The article is by one of the prominent members of the New York Times sports staff, Arthur J. Dalley. He has written that "But the Jayhawk star is not an ordinary miler. Where others would have faded before the dazzling burst from the smooth-stringing national champion to a slamming clung to the Penn vearl." "As fast as Venke went, Cunningham stayed with him in a final whirl around the boards that 'pulled the ball' and sent it into the air. Then, just as Venke shot into the final turn, the Kansas chipped his stride and started to climb. As their spikes pounded into the banked turn, Cunningham had drawn up to Venke's 'Together for Ten Strides' "As though handeffected together, they ran for perhaps ten strikes. Certainly it was no more. Then Cunningham hit him with the ball, but he could not match the tremendous power of the Kansan's sturdy legs. Cunningham's lead was clear cut and as he broke the red rope, Vanakei had four yards behind." This is in the first part of Daley's story and afterwards he goes back again to the mile race to describe Cunningham's victory. He tells how Cunningham ran his usual headrace by letting others set the lead. He was in fourth place for the first three laps. On the second lap, he ran behind Coan. The lead shifted back and forth but Cunningham retained his second place post. On the next to last lap, Venzek passed the Kansan in a fast spurt but Cunningham never was further than two yards behind the Penn freshman. And on the last lap, the Jayhawker started his sprint that carried his name once again to every city in United States.
