Y. W. C. A. Gives Function Of Bible In K.U.Curriculum
Say Ultimate Test For Al Universities is Moral, Christian Character of Graduates
The question "What is the place of the Bible in the curriculum of the University of Kansas?" was answered by Edwin Price, student pastor of the Methodist Church, and by William W. C. A., who taken work in the School of Religion at the meeting of the Y. W. C. A. in Myers Hall yesterday afternoon.
Mr Price gave the purpose of the school and a brief account of its history. "The purpose of the instruction in the School of Religion is to offer high grade courses in Bible study which will receive credit in the college. The significance of the beginning of an effort of this kind is not generally appreciated by the majority of the students," said Mr Price.
Need Religious Personality
"It is through the co-operation of nine churches that such a unity of forces working for good have been joined together. The School of Religion will make it possible for students to become religiously intelligent and intelligently religious. It is a challenge to attain the highest development of self, to discover the highers powers of his own being.
"A president of the United States said that both reason and experience forbid us to expect national morality to prevail with the lack of religion. A president of a great university said that the ultimate test for a university is the moral and religious character of its graduates.
Two Reasons for Bible Study
"Religion may be made vital and meaningful. It is worth while to return to one's native state a contribution of religious personality. Those who avail themselves of education will help the state by high minded citizenry, for the state is dependent on the character of its citizens."
Miss Myers asked the question, "Could you pass an examination in practical Christianity?" "Christianity is your major and you should study at a university which you are majoring. In the School of Religion you will find people who have gone through the same Your interpretations of the Bible will difficulties you have experienced, be strained out and you will find a more comfortable Christianity. You learn how to relate the Bibh day life."
"I can see two reasons why you should study the Bible. First, because you are students of the Uni-
verse second, because you are Christians."

Date Of Track Meet For High School Men Has Been Advanced
New Arrangement Will Give Youthful Stars a Chance to See Relays
Advenant of the date of the annual inter-scholastic track meet here from the first Saturday in May t r Friday, April 20, the day before the Kansas relay, was announced today. The event will be held at the University. The high school relays will be held over until Saturday, and be made a part of the University and College relay program, and the high school athletes who competed will be guests of the University for the Saturday events.
Another innovation for this year, announced by Coach Schiademan, is the division of the high schools into two instead of three classes, to gain better representation in each group. High schools with more than 250 students will be in Class A, and those with less than 250 in Class B.
For the relays, high schools in Kansas City, Des Moines, and Oak Park (Chicago) will be invited to compete in the four open events, and in addition there will be two closed events. They are Kansas championships in the half mile and mile relays. The open events will be the half marathon, one mile relays, in which each runner will cover one-fourth of the distance, and a medley relay of 440, 220, and 880 yards.
In order to select the most likely teams to be entered in the open relay, Coach Schladenman is asking Kansas high school track teams to hold home relays some time between April and 15, and send in the carified time.
The University section of the Kansas relay will include the 440, 880, mile, 2-mile, and 4-mile relays, and the college section will have the 850, 1050, and 1250-mile relays, 220, 880, and mile. A number of special field events will be provided.
Bullet in Bull Ends Bull Fight of 1888
"That bone with the bullet imbedded in it, is a toe-bone from the fore-foot of a bull buffalo. How did it get there? I don't know. The skeleton has been here since 1888. It might have been that some hunter was a poor shot, and couldn't do any better than bit the foot."
But C. D. Bunker, curator of the museum of birds and mammals, told a different story. He declared that the buffalo had been part of a herd once kept by the Union Pacific at Bismarck Grove in North Lawrence, and that the bull had been killed in a fight with another younger bull.
Such was the gist of information given out last week by a student working at Dvehe Museum.
But worse than this, the toe-bone used on the bull, but Mr. Bunker said said, but a bone from the tail, and know how the buckshot came to be used on the bull, but Mr. Kunker said it was possible that it had been used in the strenuous but futile efforts to catch the other which caused its death.
Thus was another rumor traced to its lair, and exposed to the pitiless vare of publicity.
Fifty dollars has been voted by the W. S. G. A. as a run for the use of a committee of faculty members in efforts to aid the bill which is now before the state legislature for a dormitory at Manhattan. Inasmuch as Manhattan forfeited its rights to the dormitory form formerly passed legislature, the dormitory University might have a large enough fund to build a dormitory, the W. S. G. A. has decided to aid Manhattan in procuring a dormitory.
W S G A Aids Manhattan
“And as the gun from the officials’ table announced the end of the game, the Kansas war-cry rang out over the field. ALL WE DO BEAT MIZZOO!”
DeVaughn Francis
We did!
According to the immortal Patrick Henry, Caesar had his brutus; George the Third, his Cromwell, and Mizoo, who conquered the provnertial knot in the Tiger's tail.
At the end of the half, twenty minutes fought with the fierce fighting between rival fives that the Valley has witnessed this season, the score stood 6-6. Rothwell Gymnasium was wild with excitement and enthusiasm. "Watch us, watch us," plowed the Tiger torsers, "this second half."
The cadet band struck up a lively air which drowned in the deluge or frantic cheering for the Home Town Boys.
That is enthusiasm. Will the Hih reciprocate on February 28?
Reports from Columbia say that the defense of both quintets was airtight. Evidently the Tiger vacuum sealed.
Ackerman, who has been nursing as secret grudge against the Tigers all these years, seems to have satiated his desire for vengeance. He was a great believer in nering eleven points; four by the field route, and seven by the liberty.
The Sweeney Radio Bugs of Kansas City wound up their program last night with the following: "From the looks of the score, Kansas must have been practicing Couesism." Wrong, Bugs? It all兰垦.
Browning, the Tiger flash, contributed the same number of points is precisely the same way to the Missouri side of the score sheet.
Last night's victory for the Allenites hakes the sixth straight win. Top the Valley, and it is very unlikely that the Washington team will play at St. Louis tonight. And the Kansan will carry a wire story as usual.
Although the percentage column isn't very materially changed, it looks a whole lot healthier from the stand-point of a Kansan:
Kansas 6 0 1.000
Washington 2 0 1.000
Missouri 4 1 800
Nebraska 1 1 .500
Ames 1 1 233
Dinah 1 2 233
Grinnell 0 2 0
Oklahoma 0 3 0
K. S. A. C. 0 4 0
Since the year 1902 Kansas has won
37 basketball games to Missouri's 24;
Kansas has run up a total of 1621
points to the Tiger's 1551.

to the beams when the two rives,
leaders of the Missouri Valley Conference,
took the floor at 7:25. Columbia was confident that the Figure
of the Deer was the center when the final whistle announced the end of the game, as the respective teams engaged in preliminary floor work at either end of the brilliantly lighted court.
The initial scorse by both teams worked the crowd into a high pitch of excitement which was broken only by a breathless expectancy when the ball touched the iron hoop. Each shot was followed by a bedlam of noise. As the final gun announced the end of the game between the two strongest court aggrieved players, it usized the crowd for a full second. Followed an audible sigh, and the first Missouri-Kansas clash of the season was court history.

Can't Keep Up with Lizzie
Cant keep up with Will Jefferson City, Mo., Jan. 17—Even the poor college student suffers from trying to keep up appearances. The state board of advisors found in its annual report that the high cost of living at the state University at Columbia is due largely to the spirit of
the students who spend more than they can zfford. "They go broke trying to keep up with the procession," the report said.
