SIGMA CHI FIVE WINS
PAN-HELLENIC HONORS
New Basketball Champions De feated Sig Alph's 20 to 18
CLOSEST GAME OF SEASON
Entire Contest Was a Rough Neck and Neck Race
After thirty minutes of furious basketball at Robinson Gymnasium last night, the Sigma Chil quintet emerged victorious bearing the title Alph Alph. The Alph Alph five, winners last year, bore the short end of a 20 to 18 tally.
The final game of the league was one of the prettiest seen during the entire season, and made a fitting elimax with two exceptionally good, even victories over both each other's threats. The Sigma Chis led from the start, but at no time got more than five points ahead of their rivals, and several times the losers pulled up to within one counter of the victors. At the end of the first half, both teams made the identical assures during the second period.
Roughness characterized the play of both quintets, but it was that kind of roughness which comes from franctic, hard-fought guarding, and the trm on the floor played their best every minute of the encounter. Leno made up the ranks of the Sigma Chis, were responsible for their scoring, and Collins, Mandeville, Black and Alexander hooped the Sig Alph baskets. Hale, ex-Varsity man, worked well at guard. Saunders, Krueger, Davis also played well for their team, although no individual star in the entire contet, each man "doing his dermest."
More than 300 fans witnessed the game.

Club For Assisting Athletes Was Organized in 1916
AHOKU MAY REORGANIZE
At a meeting of the Aohoka Club Monday night, Dr. Forrest C. Allen discussed the various ways of adding the team to the organization proposed a reorganization of the club.
Aboku was organized in 1816 by Walter Wood and W. Q. Hamilton, former director of athletics, for the purpose of tutoring the students in an athletic way. The organization consists of 26 members, chosen from a number of students whose scholastic standing is highest in their respective departments. The assistance given by the students is voluntary and without remuneration.
Many obstacles have been encountered and much time has been taken by the organization in finding those athletics who are in need of outside tutoring, and in persuading them to accept the assistance.
"The athletes are either unfamiliar with the purpose of the organization, or have a feeling of indifference toward a benefit organization," said George Lynn, president. "However, during the past five years we have assisted a great number of athletes and have kept them eligible for athletes." Present officers on the organization are Lynn, President; M. M. Johnson, vice-president; Don Blair, secretary; William Reinhart, treasurer.

Miss Dorothea Spinney, world famous interpreter of classic drama, has been obtained by the Edward MacDowell fraternity to present "Alceasit" at the University, March 17, occasioned by the death of Leroy MacRush, Rumb, president of the fraternity. Miss Spinney has given two other presentations in Lawrence, and each time met with favorable comments, according to Miss Rumb. Miss Spinney is one of the first to attempt the interpretation of the Greek classic in her Indiana performance before in costume, before a special setting of curtains. Critics have placed her work among the foremost of interpreters of the day. She has made successful appearances in England, Australia, New Zealand and in America. In America she has appeared at Harvard, Yale and Oxford, and St. Louis, and other of the leading educational institutions.
Miss Spinney was brought to the University only after a guarantee of two hundred ticket sales had been received. The institution made a personal canvass last fall, and sold the two hundred tickets, that the University students might be given a chance to hear and receive active presentation of classic drama.

The Jaghawkers have been swinging the stick pretty heavily in practice the past few days and it looks as if the "big bird" will be pretty handy with the swat-stick the coming season. The outfielders and infielders are showing good quality and the main kick that Coach Lindsay has is that he cannot finish enough, and believes that there are plenty of good men setting around in the parliars to make several good nines.
Seven letter men from last year are out this spring—Murphy, short stop, and this year's captain, Isenberger and Lashley, second baseman, Gray, first baseman and Ernest Uhrlaub and Marxen, pitcheres.
April 6-7-Oklahoma Aggies at Stillwater.
