American Universities Are Increasing Salaries Of Faculty Members
Kansas Legislature Following An Economical Policy Cut Allowances Last Year
In answer to queries made by the Kansas, ten American universities reply that they are making general increases in the salaries of their faculty members in order to meet the rising cost of living.
Salaries less than $2,500 are being raised from 5 to 20 per cent. In some cases the increase is a $200 gift. Wyoming has a regular annual increase. Wisconsin is asking its legislature for a 25 per cent increase on all salaries.
The majority of the universities which are increasing salaries are state universities, probably because the salaries in these institutions are below the average. Salaries at the University are lower than those on the contrary the legislature last year deducted $30,000 from the salaries allowance.
Varsity Five Will Hold
Annual Dinner Tonight
Freshman Team Will Attend And Next Year's Plans Will be Discussed
Coach Bond's freshman team will attend the annual dinner for the Varsity five tonight at Brick's. A captain for the 1919 Varsity quintet will be elected and plans for next year's team discussed. Basketball letters and freshman numerals will not be awarded until recommendations are made by the athletic committee later in the year.
The race for the capacity of the 1919 varsity lies between Scrubby Laslett, guard, Kelacy Matthews, center, and Olin Fearing, forward. All three are juniors and each has played good basketball this year. Laslett is the only veteran from last year's team.

Only two entries have been received by Manager W. O. Hamilton for the annual state high school basketball tournament to be held March 22 and 23 under the direction of the University of $ f $ Kansas Athletic Association. Eudora and Winfield have entered teams. This is no sign that there are

to be only a few teams in the tournament this season for none of the entries start to come into the office in great numbers until the first of next week. A majority of the entries drew in by Tuesday but entries are received until a few days before the tournament begins.
SPORT BEAMS
Prospects for a successful baseball season at Illinois are good, according to Coach Huff, as three letter men and a large number of last year's freshmen are in school. Outdoor practice has already begun and the squad is beginning to round into form.
The University of Iowa wrestling team defeated the team representing the University of Indiana Saturday by a single point. Indiana had previously been badly beaten by Ames.
Lincoln high school won the state championship of Nebraska in the recent basketball tournament held at Lincoln, and may compete at Kansas City in an inter-state tournament in the near future to decide the championship of three or four states. Central high of Kansas City, Lincoln, the winner of the state tournament to be played on July 29 at the winner of the Iowa state tournament will probably be invited to compete in a KANSAS-Missouri-Nebraska-lowa contest and the winner will be the champion of four states.
George W. Teas, team mate of Bob Simpson at the University of Missouri for the last two years, has enlisted in the tank service of the national army. Teas failed to show up in athletics because he was the running mate of Simpson. He graduated from M. U. last year.
Social Service Offers Opportunities to Women
The vocational guidance committee of the Association of Collegiate Alumni urges college girls to think of social service work as a career.

Tiny Visitor All But Upsets Class Dignity
A chubby, dirty little face peeped in. Billy glanced at the rows of students then at the instructor, and said, "Ooh, did you know I cut my finger?"
Professor Humble smiled. "Come in Billy, and sit down."
How could the professor talk baby talk to Billy to keep him quiet and still retain his dignity before his "big bows?"
Then a silcen settled over the room, uncomfortable for the professor but amusing for the "laws."
At last a happy thought burst
through the gloom. How simple. He wrote a note to Miss Hutson, the librarian, asking her to keep Billy Boy for a whale. This note he sent up to Miss Hutson by Billy. And the ruse saved the day.

TO CONSERVE WOOL WEAR ALL-WOOL
LET no man think he is conserving wool by wearing part-cotton clothes—wool adulterated is only good material gone to waste... Instead of buying poorer suits and more of them buy better suits and fewer of them ... For clothesmaking as it is done in the Kirschbaum shops means better wearing clothes-means wool conservation in its only genuine sense - $20 to $40
