THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Oreaders Trounce Drake Courtsters In One-Sided Tilt Bulldogs Get Only Four Points During First Period of Game; Ackerman is K. U. Star Coming out of a slump in the Missouri Valley court tournament, the Drake University Bulldogs fought the Allen courters savagely until the last whistle in Robinson Gymnasium Friday night, managing to hold the locals down to a 30-point lead. The final score was: Kansas 41, Drake 11. The game was bitterly contested by both teams, but the superior floor-work and connecting ability of the Oreaders was in evidence from the start when they easily cagled the ball a half dozen or more times before the visitors were able to register a single counter. Woestv Draws First Blood Woostemeyer, starting in the place of Bowman, who was suffering with laryngitis, drew first blood when he sank the sphere for a two-spot a couple of minutes after the first whistle. Fifteen seconds later Black guard, raised the ante for the Kansan with another field goal. Ackerman came to six points, and followed with a free throw and another set-up. With the score 9 to 0 against them the visitors called time out and hold a conference. Ackerman also went out for repairs and celebrated the brief respite with a free throw and a field goal in addition to another counter by Wostemeyer. Sparks replaced Wilhelm at forward position for the Bulldogs and hirled him adrift into the game by unchecking the ball from center sprinted through the loop without touching. Half Ends 20 to 4 During the remainder of the half Marveo and Bradley replaced Devine and Boettler at guard and forward positions. Drake, Sparks nested another miniscule field goal with Ackerman Black, and Wostemeyer ran the Kansas score up to the 20-point mark. Visitor's score stood at 4 at the 4th. Bowman Pulls Star Play The second half saw Bowman go in for Wootenieman at forward position. Ackerman startled both teams out of their lethargy by singing a charity throw from a foul on Murray. The ball basked, missing a buey of set-ups but connecting occasionally. The team began to connect, Black's counter being followed by those of Bowman and Wulf. The Allen team-work consisting like a machine, and the Drake found the defense unfathomable. The most sensational play of the evening was that of Bowman when he seized the ball at the tip-off, drilled down the court, and dropped into the basket before the two teams were fairly in motion. Drake garnered seven more points during the second half, five at the hands of Sparks and two at those of Bradley. At the ten-minute mark Frederick replaced Wulf at center, and at the five-minute, the remainder of the second string went in for a second period, where posted two points on the credit side of the leider for Kansas in behalf of the seconds. The whole Kansas team played a stellar game when it came to floorwork, but was exceptionally weak on backhand and in out of the hoop with remarkable consistency during the whole game. Ackerman gets credit for the most individual points. For the visualliness of their eleven points. He made nine of their eleven points. the box above.

'Students Want Education' "The large majority of the students at the University of Kansas are here for the serious purpose of getting an education," said Prof. L. E. Sisson, of the department of English, in rebutation of a statement made by Prof. J. C. Compou, of the department of English, at the University of California. L. E. Sisson Refutes Statemen of California Instructor Professor Thompson declared that seventy per cent of the students at the University of California should be attached to the handles of police officers, and that it would be interesting the University only because it was the accepted thing to do and because their parents had enough money to maintain them in their social activ "It is deplorable that such conditions exist at any state university, if Professor Thompson is correct, although I am inclined to discurse him. I agree with Sisson. "Condition(s) at the University of Kansas have steadily improved in the past few years, and the new scholarship system will weed out still further the undesirables. At present only a few professors are here for social purposes only." "Women have been accused, unjustly I believe, for being in college only for social reasons. My experience has been that they are as much interested in academic subjects as men and as a whole make better grades. While I know that many students in California, it seems to me that Professor Thompson based his statement more on personal feelings of the moment than on scientific investigation. Perhaps he had just had a bad breakfast." The cast for the one-act James M. Barry play, "The Old Woman Showed Her Medals" to be presented at the March meeting of the Lawrence Theatre; W. O.
