ENTIRE CONTEST CLOSE
Coach Allen Confident That Team Will Make Good Valley Record
Playing a good defensive game, but with an inferior offensive play, the Kansas basketball team noed team了 Drake five 28 to 23 in Robben Olympius last night. The game was close throughout and until the sounding of the final whistle it was either team's game.
Drake took the lead in the first few minutes of play when fouls on Kanasa gave Payseur, Drake forward, a chance to toss two free throws through the hoop. Drake continued to keep the lead, and at the middle of the first half lead 5 to 1. Endcourt then started the scoring for the Jayz basker 5.e by making a long field goal. Westemestern tied the score with a goal from underneath the basket. Roby followed with two good shots, giving Kanasa the lead which she held for the remainder of the game.
In the last period, with ten minutes to play, the Builders laid a rally which carried them within one point of the Kannas score. Payseur and Wilhelm both made good shots, mucking the score to 23 in. The Kannas won by a single run, and after a field goal by Rody gave the dawners a three point lead.
"If the Kansas team can beat a fairly good team when clearly off form, they should have little difficulty in winning from a good team when they are right," said Dr. F. C. Allen, coach, following the game. "We underestimated the Drake team and the Kansas men were badly overrated, take play, be good forty per cent better than we played last year."
Endacott was the only Kansas man who played up to his usual form last season. Endacott lead the Kansas defense during the first half, and his 15 points led the Gators start the rally which overcame the Drake lead. During the latter period Body hit his stride and was the high point score of the game, making
The Drake men used the Western Conference style of basketball, playing the blocking, rugged, checking game. They played "spot" basketball with their usual clever game, blocking rather than the jayhawker men off their usual clever game.
More than six hundred people attended the game last evening. The crowd was kept at a high pitch of excitement, as fans cheered for their team. Game Two Missouri Valley officials, Loren "Red" Brown, a "K" man for former years, and Leslie Edmonds, sport editor of the TopaKe Capital game last night from the sidelines.
The Drake team left at 11:38 o'clock last night for Norman, Oklahoma, where they will play a game with the Soumes tonight.

Act Passed Out of Respect for Former Professor
A modern high-powered 308 calibre Savage rifle was given Monday by the University to Mrs. L. L. Dye, widow of former Prof. L. L. Dye, as a result of a special legislative act passed by the Legislature last January out of respect to the former professor.
The bill instructing the curator of the museum to turn over "a certain run" to the Dyche heirs was introduced into the Legislature by W. W. Lindzaia, state representative from the district in which L. L. Dyche, Jr. now lives. Mr. Dyche is a physician as Jetmore, Kansas.
Last spring the curator of the museum presented the heirs with an old gun which was the first ever owned and used by Professor Dylce Lahr Tutu. The gun is likely to one of the modern high-powered weapons belonging to the state.
In accordance with the wishes of
the family one of these files was
turned over to Mrs. Dyche Monthly.

CHANCELLOR SCORES GRAFT IN ACTIVITIES
Lindley Puts Part Blame for Growth of Graft on Faculty
CONSTITUTION VS. POLICY
Chancellor Lindley, addressing an assembly of the faculty, accented the problem of graft in student enterprises to be one of the greatest ones on the University campus. The chancellor put upon the faculty part of the blame for the growth and continuation of the system.
Merit System Will Reward Students for Obtaining Higher Grades
"Students at this institution, as those of others, have brought in from the world at large the attitude that students must say, 'as they say,' declared the Chancellor. "This has resulted in managers of student enterprises accepting from their fellow students certain amounts of money," he then delicately infer an inferior article.
"It is a bad thing to give any degree of this University to a man whose practice on the campus has fitted him for Tammany Hall.
"The student constitutions pronounce against graff, but practice has winked at it. The memoirs came to a head in the publication of the student annual. Last year's publication manager a few years ago clapped $2,000 for himself. As a result he got to the University a cheap publication when he should have given a good one. The University suffered in that. For our annual was a cheap affair, compared to ones from other schools.
"This year, the management of the Jayhawk is determined to use a new system. You faculty members—some of you—unwittingly have played in the hands of those who wish the old system continued, for some of you have spoken disparagingly of efforts this year to nut value into the book
"Then, too, a free list grew up among faculty members, and this very fact was seized upon as a justification for continuation of the sys-
"The issue, therefore, is whether this old system shall continue. What I ask of the faculty members is their moral support for the uprooting of the system that cheats the students and the University."
Chancellor Lindley spoke briefly on the subject of economy, and urged members of the faculty to practice it and to urge students to do so. The department is being made for some sort of merit system to reward students obtaining higher grades. He added that a careful study is to be made of grades given by the faculty. He said the end that there may be a standardizing of faculty practice.
FRENCH HAVE BRITISH TERMS
Cannes, Jan. 11.—A memorandum containing the provisions upon which Great Britain will agree to a defense of France, was issued here this afternoon.
No Naval Competition First Condition of Alliance
The second conditions laid down by Lloyd George, who was the author of the memorandum, called for French agreement to the international conference proposed for Genoa in March, which is to include Germany and Rusa.
It makes the first condition of the alliance that there shall be no naval competition between France and England.
In the French cites, it was said,

The third British condition is that the defensive pact with France shall form the basis for a wider stream of diplomatic coercion. The threat: that is, an all Europe treaty.

Karsan Cub Shocked By Underclassmar
A Kanaan reporter approached the ultra-timed freshman, introduced himself, and wring his hand as though it were a pump handle.
Pres. W. S. G. A.
Dorothy Stanley,
"What might be your opinions on the various nus-applied prepositions when accompany an reference to the new stadium?" the Cab volled.
The sadly abused underclassman goggled. "Huh?"
Patience is born of long suffering. The cab's store of fortitude was amazing. "What I mean is this; when you are standing on the under track which is footed about on the ground, structure, are you bound, beneath, with or merely the immediate vicinity of the stadium?"
The freshman co-taught to gasp like a fish out of its natural element, "And," pressed his tormentor, "when you are sitting on a stadium seat, are you in, on anyone, or more likely the stadium?"
The other drapped his blood over one fat in the manner of thus immortal masterpiece, the Thinker, and pondered time and hard, "Well," pondered time and hard, but I do know that the new stanza is a hundred dollars in me."
The undertaker was called for the reporter.
AMPHIBIAN FOOTPRINT INTERESTS SCIENTISTS
H. T. Martin's Exhibits Sub ject of Much Discussion at Augsburg
Amherst
Flaster casts of the footprints of the large, prehistoric amphibian from the coal measures which was recently discovered and restored by H. T. Martin of the department of paleontology of the Paleontological Society of America held at Amherst College, `mumbet`, Mass., during the holidays. The tracks aroused a great deal of interest and the scientists there expressed the hope that some trace of fossils of the animal might be found.
The footprints were first discovered by James and Robert Coghill, sons of Prof. Geo, E. Coghil of the department of anatomy, while they were on a tramp along the banks of the Wakarua River about five miles south-east of Lawrence in the vicinity of the Dightman bridge crossing.
There are eight tracks in the ser-
les and they are average about six
inches wide and from six to seven
inches long.
A recent issue of the Bulletin of the Geological Society contains notice of the discovery of the footprints and tracks that will soon be published in "Sciences."
These footprints, if properly interpreted, represent what is probably the largest coal measure vertebra so far known.

Paris, Jan. 11—This is the Spanish season is Paris, everythingSpan is in vogue.
Spanish Fads Taking Gay Paree By Storm
Theatres are giving plays playeauville dancers are performing to the sound of castanettes, orchestras are playing spanish meadios, crowds are swaying in dance halls to Spanish tunes, art exhibits are favoring spanish movies, and women are wearing spainnish novels, and women are affectionating spanish wear.
There seems to be no other reason for the Spanish vogue than that life in Paris goes by fakes, and this is the result of the fact that Partis has produced since the war.
The Spanish craze has taken the themes by storm. From the Opera House 3, the cheapest vaudeville, Spain holds swag. A new one act operet entitled "Spanish Time" has been casted at the Opera House; it has been acclaimed as one of the most successful modern productions of recent years. The famous novel of Blasco Danzo "In the Shadow of the Cathedral" has been dramatized and is being played to a crowded house at the Opera Comic. Spanish numbers feature in almost every variety show. Bergere, the Albambra, and the Olympia are now featuring Spanish numbers.
Refugees are fleeing.
