The Jayhawkers had no interfere with his plan for having his charges in the best condition pos- The Agges have a tendency of doing the unexpected, and especially in this case when it comes to war. In so far as the Agges raced through the Iowa State defence last week for a 28 to 24 victory, with three of their victories on the way, caused new respect to be shown for that outfit. Coach Corson will probably depend on the same team that led them. Hold Light Drill The Jayhawkers held a light drill on the Auditorium court last night, with the regulars working on the defense against the players' defence and morale in the practice that will be hard to overcome. Every man on the team was hitting the ball with an unusual degree of accuracy. But the judges said the game it will be hard to stop them. May Upset Jayhawkers The Kansas regulars came out of the Nebraska game in good shape, and with the rest that they have had since Saturdays' game against the Sacramento for their encounter with the boys from Manhattan tonight. The game should either give Kansas the inside chance to win a championship or will throw it back into a tie with Nebraska for the lead. Archaeology Display Here The conference this year has produced more surprise and upset than that of the past two years, for reasons of Kansas by Alabama, and the defeats of Nebraska by Missouri and Iowa. But it was also a time of rising up and smiling the Jayhawks, and it would not be surprising to see a strong team in Kansas. Coach Allen will again depend on his five regulars. Led by Ted B. C. Bishop and Greg Kellner, the team will fit all Big Six team last year, the Jayhawks will be hard to stop now that they are loading in the conferencers. They will have a consistent scorer in the conference. Page and Johnson will be the other starters for Kansas. Romney will provide leadership. Coach Coranatt is likely to depend on the substitutes who performed so well in his game. As in his last game, Taino Nigro, Khradki and Auker will probably play much of the game, but he could take on the match.

NON-FRATERNITY GROUP 'DISOWNS' TAX ADVOCATES Petitions Circulated Today Assert Gibson-L'Ecuyer Do Not Represent 'True Sentiments IEARING IS TONIGHT Both Sides Promise Plenty of Action Before Senate Committee Bulletin About 200 patrons against the Hicks bill to tax fraternities have been circulated on the campus to be signed by non-intimidate men. A senate committee hearing on the bill which alluded to his passed the house will be held tonight. Late today numerical word was received that the committee of the Merrill Interdisciplinary Council, which is fighting the Hicks tax bill tonight in the Securities Committee, has presented several Lawrence merchants to appear before the committee with them to argue against transition of fraternities. No information was available as to who these men will be. Kenneth Menner said that the petitions were fostered by a non-fragrantian girl who had been the person who gave him a copy of the petition other than that he is non-fragrant. According to Lee Benton, e32, non-fraternity men of the Men's Student Council are appointed the fraternity men to draw up a plan for membership made by Hilden Gibson and H. K. Z. LeUeyer. With the aid of the fraternity men the position was drawn up in two groups among almost among non-fraternity men for signatures. The members of the council who are non-fraternity men have said that they are not attending the two groups as stated by Gibson. Another petition, was circulated two might by several law students not me- mitted to the study. The one is practically the same as the one circlu- ting today. About 190 samplers were The petition circulated today reads: "We, the undergrads, who are non-fra- dents at the University of Kansas, have students at the University of Virginia, problem does not affect us in any way, and we do not sanction or authorize the appearance of any non-fra- fraternity men that may be involved in such a tac. We do not agree with the statements of certain non-fraternity men that monarchy or social cleavage would be present in the fraternity men of the University." The petition circulated last night and now having about 109 signatures reads, "The Kansas University, belonging to neither social nor professional fraternities have no desire to use the Hicks bill enacted in 2015 that requires students are in no sense sponsorship for the fraternity group which we represent, and feel that contrary to their views that there is no anomaly existing between groups at the University of Kansas." Meuer and Dilla are to appear before the senate tax committee in Topka this evening at 7 o'clock to argue that he has proposed a bill. Léuyer and Gibson have intimated that they may appear to present the case of non-frauerny men. What the bearing of these men is of interest is the hearing is a matter of conjecture. Hearing Tonight Meusler said that he did not know who won pushing the petitionss and that he could prove the evidence to influence the legislators as he had no way of gaining possession of the petitionss. The source fairly reliable that the petitionss would be presented in Topeka by prom- Charles Hassett, Laurence Turner, Jack Turner, and other law students circulated the petition last night. In answer to the report that the fraternities are circulating petitions which it is hoped will show that the delegation which is to appear before the senate would like to see the petition for taxation is not representative of any group on the Hill, the delegation for taxation asserted this morning that such petitions receive quite a routine handling by legislative committee and overburdened with petitions anyway. the delegation, which will be headed by Hildan Gibson, $25 is beating time for the candidates to secure fraternity conference headed by Kenneth Menner and Robert Dills is A few days ago the committee against taxation declared itself to be ready with guns loaded for the Senate Committee, but the committee definitely assured the senate committee that a delegation would be present to argue for the bill which would tax (Continued on page 3)
