A NEW IDOL.
Sport followers of America have a new idol. When the gong at the end of the tenth round sounded to the big fight in the sequi-centennial stadium in Philadelphia last night a new bevy-weight boxing champion was crowned.
Jack Dempsey, seven years champion of the world, resigned his title to the fighting marine champion of the A. E. F., Gene Tumney. The defender failed to win a single round of the bout. He was not the Dempsey of old.
Battered and braised, but still game Dempsey vainly tried to knock out his opponent in the last round, the only chance to retain his title. At the judges' decision after the final gong Dempsey amid the cheers of thousands, walked across the rain-capped ring to congratulate his competitor.
There was no alibi; a better man had won. In one short hour a new American idol was crowned, who will be supported by sportdown until a new and better man appears.
Kansas City may be concerned over her smoke ordinance, but Kansas put worry aside with a constitutional law.
THE UNIVERSITY PLAYER
"Tin Cans Off the Streets," says an headline in the K. C. Times. Where are the flwers to be driven?
With the announcement that the Kansas University Players are to present a series of bills throughout the school year, comes the certainty that students and townpeople will have an opportunity to witness wolf of real morit. Those who had the opportunity of attending the plays given during the past summer session know what before they in the way of worth-while entertainment. Other will soon be introduced to the best drama and comedy through the effort of this little group.
Response to these bills during the summer and to the performances of "Candida" last spring show that the Players are filling a real place in the life of local theater-goers. The wise selection of plays, the carefully chosen cast, the realistic settings, and the general excellence of past performance reveals a high standard of production.
Much time has been spent in getting each hill perfect in detail. It has been time well spent. The smoothness and the ease with which most of the players have gone off have amply repaid the Players for the labor spent on them and have convinced audiences that they were witnessing work that compared favorably with that of professionals.
And audiences have not been unappreciative. They have encouraged and stimulated this little group by their constant interest and, for the most part, excellent attendance. That good plays have a place in the lives of students has been evidenced by the response which they have called forth.
THE FIRST SOUR OW1
Now that everyone has had time to read over the first issue of our Sour Owl without causing his neighbor undue concession by the usual borrower's promise to return, it is not out-of-place to congratulate the members of Signa Delta Chi on their first effort of the year.
Nowhere has there been heard a word of complaint or of dissatisfaction with the Owl. Students have been
pleased with the magazine under its new policy of presenting clean college humor without citing to low tastes. The sales reveal an increase over last year.
New all that remains is for students to show that they appreciate humor that is good and is decent at the same time. The Owl has given them humor of this kind with the anawed purpose of carrying out this new policy throughout the year. The rest depends on the students of the University. They must prove whether or not they want humor of this type.
The odds on the big fight were three to one. Yes, Dempsey got $500,000 to Tunney's $200,000.
MAYBE SO!
It was Wednesday moon of this week. Students were lining the sidewalks down Fourteenth street and streaming across the intersections. A car came carving down the hill, swung sharply into Ohio street, narrowly missed the curb and escaped disaster, and without slacking speed took the corner at Thirteenth street and stuck back up the hill.
What a marvelous drive! feent! The driver had brakes, because he used them just before he turned the corner—but too late to slow the car. That showed he was no caoward. What are automobile brakes for but for cowards to use?
And how the pedestrians enjoyed it! One could tell by the look on the faces of the half dozen or so who happened to be crossing Ohio street at the time that nothing pleased them more than this opportunity to display their wovens at leaping.
How everyone admired the skill of this fellow! And his utter nobalance as he turned and went back up the hill to have just come down so swiftly! All the spectators felt the thrill. Perhaps a life was at stake, and this driver was imperiling several other persons just to save it. How romantic! How adventurous!
Perhaps.

have learned, dev pin their hearts,
how it might be
These, and the sunlight on the slip pery spars.
That there is yet a dearer thing than home.
The decks they walk, the rigging in the stairs.
Will hunt them ever, waking and asleep.
The clean bonida counted in the watch they keep.—
Or, brooding by their fires, they hear again
They walk as strangers through the crowded street.
Ashore, these men are not as other
men;
The drone astern, where gurgling waters meet.
Or see cgain a wide and blue lagoon,
And a lone ship that video there with
the ship.
David Morton in "Ships in Harbor."
