Allenites Prepare For Home Stretch Of Cagers' Derby
Fifteenth Hurdle is Cleared In Race for Championship When Kansas Meets Grinnell
Getting away to a running start, the University of Kansas basketball five cleared the fifteenth hurdle which separated it from the championship of the Missouri Valley Conference in the game with Grimm College on the Robinson court Friday night. The final score: Kansas 38, Grimell 16.
John Wulf, the versatile Jayhawk center, drew first blood when he potted the ball from the side of the court to the right. But no more goals were made for six minutes while the ball was jockeyed back and forth over the court; then Ackerman caged a free throw on a backboard and captured a field counter seconds later.
Grinnell Fails to Register at First
Grinnell failed to register a goal of any kind until after ten minutes from the start of the game, when Gelvin seized the ball under the basket and dropped it in. Ackerman and Grinnell had a good apiece, and Grinnell called time out for a conference. The score stood to 2 to 1 in favor of the Oreaders, every man on the Kansas squad having been captured and guarded.
Dr. F. C. Allen, coach, started the first string five again at the beginning of the second, the first half having ended 22 to 8 in favor of the Altojo and the second half of 28 points on the credit side of the lollipop for Kansas, and the second string, substituted at the ten-minute period of the second half, added nine points to this score. Three minutes before the end of the game, Coach Willis, who which succeeded in garnering a long point before the second gun.
Kansas Shows Team Work
The Scarlet and Black used a total of eight men in an effort to stem the tide of the Jayhawker offensive, but the visitors were helpless against the perfectly co-ordinated teamwork and caring ability of the locals. Fifteen men were used for training substitutions; Cushman for Whitehill at forward, Bogle for Beens at center, and Fearing for Gelvin at forward.
McDonald of the second string made a record of five points on long shots and fouls during the brief period he was in the game.
Ackerman, the sensational sophomore forward, was high point man for the Kansans. He garnered a total of eight points. Black and Bowman tied for second with seven, three field goals each to their credit. Captain Endacott did not score until the second half when he dropped the sphere through the hoop twice. Wulf, center, played a fine guarding game for his team and collected a total of four points.

M. U. Forms Press Association
M. U. Forms Press Association Columbia, Mo., Feb. 26. (U. P.)—A Missouri Interscholastic Press Association, under the supervision of the Foundation of the University of Missouri, is to be formed before the end of the present school year. Details of the organization will be drawn up at a convention of editors and business managers of preparatory school public schools. We will meet here in connection with the annual High School Day observance, May 5.
The University Women's Club will hold its next meeting on Thursday, March 1, in Myera Hall at 3:00.
A STELLAR GUARD
Superior at picking the ball off the backboards in the opponents' territory, excelling in receiving the tip at center, surpassing his opposing guards at carrying the ball down the court, Paul Endacott, captain of the Kansas basketball team, is unobstacle the best guard that the Valley has seen in years. Dribbling, passing and blocking can no longer hape the nope. "Enday" by the way, has fought into the scoring columns more than any other guard in the Valley with the exception of his running mate, Charles Black.
JAYHAWK TWITTER
For the second time this season the University of Kansas basketball team played a football game on a cage court. The Scarlet and Black has some good tackles, but its backfield is weak.
The crowning insult of the evening was the running in of Kansas' third string. But Boge had worn John Wulf out trying to knock him down.
Kanas cleared the fifteenth hurdle in the conference run by several inches.
This week will mark the end of the basketball season and see the opening of the active track season.
Kansas is sending a team to compete in the Illinois relays Saturday, March 3.
The Valley is watching the coming tangle with the Tigers here Wednesday night with unusual interest. Probably there has never been a Missouri Valley Conference basketball game grafted with such intense intensity that a team of depleted seats will have to peek through the cracks in the roof.

"It will be only a short time until physical education will be a national requirement for all schools. The Gymnasium is the playground of the University," said Dr. Martha Bacon in speaking of the Physical Education Club now becoming active here. This club was organized last year, but the team is still being held at 8 p.m. in room 202 Ebisonian Gymnasium. Membership is open to all students interested in physical education.
K.U. Women to Shoot Against Other Schools In Rifle Competition
The objects of the club are: to increase interest in physical education, fellowship and research; the discussion of new problems in progress and ideals, and the working out of problems in relation to the exercise of the body; and to develop leaders in the field of physical education.

Classes to be Open to Any Hill Woman; Practice in Old Heating Plant
The University of Kansas is preparing to answer the challenges of Northwestern University and state school districts in a match between women's rifle teams.
The classes will be open to all the women of the University, but instruction in shooting will not take the place of gymnasium work. The classes are under the instruction of Sergeant E. H. T. C, shooting gallery.
The classes in shooting will meet in the old heating plant one hour a week. The team will consist of ten women, the distance to be fifty feet from the muzzle of the rifle to the target, the witness to be a commissioner or instructor institution. The positions will be standing, kneeling, sitting, and prone—ten shots at each position. The team will use any 22-caliber rifle issued by the government with sights. The trigger pull is not to be less than three pounds and the gun sling may be used in all positions (with one arm only). The rifle should be held within the department is to be used by the team. The average time is one shot a minute.
Marked targets will not be exchanged due to the fact that the team will not fire more than one match each week and the exchange would be impracticable. Each number will be scored at each position with the certificate of the officer on duty. Records will be exchanged by mail.
According to Dr. Martha M. Bacon,
associate professor of physical education,
there will be enough women in the
university. Ms. W. M. E. Turrer, of the department
of military science, will supply ammunition, rides, and an instructor for the women aspirants. The days on which she will be held will be announced later.
W. S. G. A. to Establish Student Honor System
The establishment of an honor system in the University is now under discussion by the W. S. G. A.
Various means for putting the system in operation and details as to how it may be carried out successively are given by the W. S. G. A. for some time, but nothing will be devised definitely until the council holds its joint meeting with the Men's Student Council. It is agreed, however, that some sort of equipment should be adopted in order to keep up scholarship standards here.

Blind Men Play Basketball
Remarkable Court Teams Turn Out in Nebraska
By I. I. Femrite
(United Staff Respondent) Lincoln, Nebr., Feb. 24.-The most remarkable basketball teams in existence, probably the only ones of their kind in the world, may be found at the University Nebraska institute for the blind.
This institute has actually developed among its members rival quintets, and in spite of their handicap, they play a game which causes one to marvel at their speed and accuracy. Basketball for the blind is, of course, not the ordinary cage game, but modified to some extent. The greatest obstacle is accurate basket shooting, which has been met by placing eight circles on the floor. These serve as landmarks, so they can be easily felt with the feet.
They train to shoot from these spots and acquire the knack of caging the sphere with ease. The foul line is marked with a strip of linen pasted to the floor at the regular seventeen foot distance. Probably the greatest problem of all for the boys is passage, being engaged by stamping with the feet helps the players in communicating with their teammates.
