Romped Away From Kansas
• Aggies Last Night With
    44 to 26 Score
RODY WAS IN GOOD FORM
Kansas Ran Up 15 to 2 Score I First 15 Minutes—Aggies Called Time
The Jayhakers again took the lead in the Missouri Valley race when they rumped away from the Kansas Aggies last night in Robinson Gym, leaving the Wildcats the lighter end of a 44 to 26 score. The Mount Oread battles were hot and tough for the gums and lost one while the Tigers have won thirteen and lost one.
During the first half, if the game kept evening the 2nd field, w hud the hurt ability, which he laded them at the top of the massive Valley ladder. Then the players started things of w with a rash from the tip-off and run up a 15 to 2 score in the first seven minutes when the Argie men called for time out. This brief breathing spell helped the Manhattan had little, and the half-century in Kansas, the Argies having registered only two field goals.
Between halves the Cow college men looked things over and evidently discovered their own weaknesses for with the start of the final period the Aggie players began a rally that soon brought the western boys within ten points of the jayhawker count. Dobson, the senatorial Aggie star, cured his back from all that distance and from all angles, and by his prowess alone the Manhattan boys came within halting distance of the Kansas score.
The Jayhawk offense was not up to form in this period and the Aggie players, using the individual guarding plan of sticking to your man, successfully held the Kansans to three goals during the first part of the final half.
The Aggie rally was in vain, for after a few minutes the Jayhawkers started on another drive which left the Wildcats 18 points behind at the final shot. Coach Allen used nine men in the battle last evening, Freedman leading them and Bowman's place and Rupp and Lonberg filling the two guard positions after Black and Enlacott withdrew from the game.
Again as in most former games this season, it was team play that won over individual work. The Agile attack was centered around Dobson and when he left the game in the latter period their offense was ruined. In contrast to this individual play the Agile Kai Kaefer, During the first half, their play was like clock work and the score shows the result.
Bowman demonstrated his ability last night to play as running mate to Body. This light forward plays the game for all his worth and his sheer power, both with his skill as shifty and as fast as usual and took high point honors with six goals from the field and four liberty tosses, Wulff, the tall Kansas center, made several difficult flips from the field and his defensive play was above par. His passing jabbing b abyssal brutes won frequent applause from the crowd.
It was just too much Kansas and the game is very well summed up by the words which Dobson uttered when he won. "They're too hot," the latter phrase. "They're just too hot," was Dobson's remark to the Aggie coach, and he was right. They

Influenza Among Students Is Fast Disappearing
The flu, epidemic among the students of the University of Kansas is fast disappearing according to Dr. E. Smith of the University Hospital. As proof of this Dr. Smith further stated that there are at present only patients in the hospital as compared with ten at this time last week.

CARL SANDBURG IS A
SOLDIER OF FORTUNE
The Chicago Poet Has Done Many Things in Many Different Fields
One of Carl Sandburg's poems is "Shambling to Destiny."
And to say that Carl Sandburg "shambled to his destiny" is alo'together correct, says the Chicago Tribune.
For the Chicago poet, who appears in Fraser Chapel the night of March 7, quit grammar school at 13 and began driving a muk wagon in Illinois. He worked as a carpenter years were spent working in brickworks and potteries, and riding "rattlers" to Kansas wheat fields, where he swung a pitchfork at the threshing machine. He worked his way through Lombard College, Gatesborough.
He was washed in Denver hotels, shaved coal in Omaha, and saw active service in Porto Rico during the Spanish-American war as a member of the 6th Illinois Volunteer Infantry. During the World War he was a correspondent in Stockholm for a press association of American artists, editor of the magazine, System, and later an editorial writer on the Chicago Daily News.
At college he took away an oratory prize. He plays the banjo, is acquainted with the rigamarle of the couririe, and has a large repertoire of operas. He sings. He averages five hours sleep a night, is a long distance hiker, eats in one-arm luncheons, always has his pocket full of clippings and manuscripts, and gets letters from schools and missionaries the world year.
"Make way for 'Chicago Poems,' says the Tribute. Carl Sandburg wrote them, and is glad he did. They are about skyscrapers and bunkshooters, murkers, hog butchers, and a lot of war and battle; about war and women, some about musicians and mists. All perctoire through Sandburg, partake of him, exude from him. . . . Some things here when you have finished you keep on with. You know in wowring and that must be poetry, mustn't it?"
Sandburg is being brought here by the local chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, journalistic fraternity. The administration has been announced as seventy-five cents.
"IRENE" HERE SATURDAY
Charming Musical Comedy Will Play at Bowersock
Irene, one of the best musical comedies on the road will play at the Bowersock theater, next Saturday night, March 4. The Vanderbilt Producing Company will present the play, it has been written by her, Montgomery, with music and lyrics by Richard Tierney and Joseph McCarthy.
It is a musical play, something that is very seldom seen. The story is of the most romantic type, with a musical setting and with lyrics and melodies you cannot often find. With all of these characteristics, it is one of the most engaging brand with humor, which keeps you busy laughing.

his radio training in the navy.
NO MORE TEA DANCES
EDICT OF WAGSTAFF
University Senate Ruling Makes These Public Dances Unauthorized Amusement
MAY BE ONLY TEMPORARY
Cessation Stated by Proprieto to Have Been Made as Voluntary Action
That there will be no more tea dances at Wiedemann's, the announcement made this morning by R. B. Wagstaff, proprietor of Wiedemann's institution has been taken by the University authorities in regard to Mr. Wagstaff's proceeding, it is generally understood that the discontinuance of the dances is the result of delicate suggestion made by certain officials.
There is a University Senate rale which says "During a regular session of the University no student or group of students may give or attend a dancing party in Lawrence which is thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price. Dancing parties may be given only on Friday and Saturday nights and on nights immediately preceding a school holiday. All dancing parties must be properly dressed, with capes or chaperones given to the Dean of Women not later than three days before the dance is to be given."
While these tea dances have been chaperoned, they are public dances, nevertheless, and a student is break-in. However, Mr. Waustaff insures no responsibility for breaking the Senate ruling, as required, the business end of the matter, but he states that it is not responsible for breaking the law against the rule of the University.
The report that the Mayor and the University authorities were in conjunction in the action of the abolishing of the dances is unfounded. It is not known whether this is to be a permanent discontinuance or only temporary. University officials refuse to be quoted on the matter.

Senior Laws Spring Flap-Wing Collar:
"I'll wear one if you will," said one
Senior Law to another.
"One what?"
"One flap-winged collar on Monday."
Out of a few simple words came the birth of a great idea. A petition that all senior laws should be required to wear the high flag-winged collar was sent out and duly signed, and today, deportment reigns supreme among the self-appointed pace setters of the department.
The new style is not a passing fancy to be lightly regarded. The collars must be worn by the seniors until the cane season comes again. The penalty for disregard of the rule is malted milk for the crowd and is considered sufficiently heavy to insure observance of the law.
The 'fah-winged' neck piece is in general use in eastern colleges, among the law students, but is an innovation in this University.
SENIOR WOMEN START DEFINITE ORGANIZATION
Dinner at Commons Thursday Evening Will be One of First of Series of Activities
The senior women have taken definite action to organize.
At a meeting of the advisory committee Thursday it was decided to hold a dinner tomorrow night at the Commons at seven o'clock for women and men in order to become better acquainted and acquire a more fraternal feeling. It is thought that the holding of dinners and various other activities will help to create a closer bond of friendship between these women and also to cultivate their special classes. Special entertainment will be the feature of the dinner tomorrow night. Plans for the remainder of the semester are to be proposed and voted upon. The tags issued for the dinner are especially unique in that they resemble in design a mortar board and are colored of silver insignia worn by the senior women on Fridays.
"It is hoped that all the senior women will take advantage of the opportunity of meeting their classmates and will co-operate in this new movement," said Laura Harkraker, secretary of the Senior Women.

10 SHOW MOVIE OF BATTLES
Legion and Veterans Will Present "Powder River"
"Powder River," the official U. S. War Department motion pictures, taken by the U. S. Signal Corps during the activities of two million real fighting men, including the 85th and 85th, Kansas' own divisions, will be shown at the Bowersock Theater, Monday and Tuesday of next week, under the auspices of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion. According to those who saw the battle in Washington city when it was shown last week, "Powder River," more vivid than any word description brings home to the audience a realization of what the dogboys went through overseas.
A very remarkable thing about the pictures is the filming of them. They were taken, not behind the lines, but right along with the doughboy in the front里 trench and with him when he goes over the top. These pictures give a clearer understanding to those who did not go, of those who did, and what it really meant for our boys to be "over there."

STAFF OF JAYHAWKER ASKS FOR SNAPSHOTS
The Ones You Are Hiding, Are the Ones They Want
The snapshots that you have been hiding from, your friends are the kind that the Jayhawker office is looking for now, according to Elmer Issen, business manager, this morning.
“It’s time to drug them out from their hiding-places and bring them into the office,” Mr. Keen, “Of course, I’d never tell anyone who brought them.”
The success or failure of the snapshots section of the 1922 Jayhawkier depends on the students, according to Ted Hudson, associate editor. The management hasn't time to go out and find all these rare pictures, while it is perfectly simple for the passosons to bring them into the office. If some hashtail person would rather not bring them in he might send them in anonymously to Jayhawkier or Hudson in his own house. "Right now on the hill are probably taking a lot of good snow pictures. Snow pictures show up well in the snapshots page. Pictures of bikes, flashlight pictures, and pictures taken on the river are always good too," added Mr. Hudson. "They say that a great man is never appreciated in his own country," said Cap Garin, editor. "The same thing holds true of a whole lot of the snapshots that people on this Hill have. They don't realize the value of these little pictures, in many cases nor do they realize how glad they would be to hold of some of them. Wd like to see people bring in everything they have, whether they think they're good or not, because often the ones that never come in are the very ones were waiting for."

IDENTIFICATION PLAN HAS STUDENT FAVOR

Talk of a Slow Season In Monte Carlo Wrong
Executive Connells Have Authorized Petitions for Merchant Cooperation
SHOULD SUPPORT ACTION
University Men and Women Must Comply With the New Rule
The Men's Student Council and the Executive Council of the W. S. G. A. have authorized the circulation of petitions requesting merchants to insist upon proper identification of students before canning checks and banking tanks to encounters accounts of students who consistently overbuy their deposits.
Men's Student Council has secured the signatures of the leading merchants and bankers downtown to these petitioners. The Registrar's office is prepared to issue duplicate identification cards to those students who have lost the ones they received in the mail. The records will be duplicate will also be a receipt from the University, the same as the first one was.
"The student body still has a large part to play in the success of this plan," said Dean Dyer this morning, with the merchants and eves no resentment when the request of the two councils is followed out by the merchants and banks. Student support of the council will not self-government, he added.
Daeer Dyer further continued,
"Three boys are facing penitentiary
sentences for an act which was the
ultimate outgrowth of caroliness in
the city, and I think it would be
possible to greatly lighten their
punishment if this situation can be
cleared up before the May term of
court. To this end students' University
authorities and downtown merchants
will co-operate to co-operate
whole-heartedly."
Other schools have and are now taking the same stand as the one taken by the two councils here with regard to student banking, or are establishing student banks in connection with their schools or both.
