Fast Offensive Of Younger Players Dazes Upperclassman Team
Final Class Contest Is Set
Expected Game With Haskell Women's Sextet Is Postponed
The freshmen women's basketball team defeated the junior sextet in the battle for third place in the interclass race Saturday morning by a 25-4 score. The freshmen displayed the best brand of basketball they have shown this year and the upperclass team had none to play. In play, when the juniors scored their only field goal of the contest and tie the score at 2-2.
The junior guards were unable to keep the little freshmen forwards, Helen Barnett and Margaret Wasson, from scoring almost at will in the first half and as a result the score at the end of the period stood 12-2, with the yearling sextet on the long end.
Helen Olson, freshman jumping center, was a big factor in helping her team to hold its big lead in the last half. She scored three field goals in this period, besides getting the tip-off most of the time. The Barnett-Wasson-Olson combination as it was working Saturday presents one of the best scoring machines among the inter-class teams and the fast offensive of this first round. Her next dared by its brilliant work. M. Smith, running senior of the freshmen, broke into the scoring column in the last half with a field goal and completed the yearling score. M. Brown, J. Parkinson, and M. Castle played well for the juniors.
The game between the seniors and the Haskell women's sextet, which was to have been played Saturday morning was postponed because the Haskell team was not given permission to leave the Indian school in time for the contest. The game will play on Monday afternoon in the near future, according to Hazel Pratt, of the department of Physical Education.
The final inter-class contest for the women's championship of the University will be played Thursday evening at 7:15 o'clock between the seniors and sophomores. The seniors have not lost a game this year, while the second-year team has been defeated only in the first contest of the year with seniors. The sophomores have improved wonderfully since that date, and they are now one of women's games expect the game Thursday evening to be a battle royal, with the second year sextet having a good chance to win.

Student Suggests
Salamander Seal
Sugcricating a salamander as the official emblem for the national food conservation organization, the University of Kansas animal house is inviting the attention of Mr. Hoover to twenty-five reptiles of that species which have lived and thrived the last four months on nothing more nor less than the more or less pure city water. The salamanders are full grown and can survive in thin bamboo-containing three inches of water. So far as the care taker has been able to determine they have refused all food, except water.

TEACHERS WANTED
A dozen or so land salamanders at the animal house also are emulating their wetter brethren in a way that would tickle the food administrator. They disappeared one night. Three weeks later the keeper found them, when draining a small fish pond, They, too, had been trying the water diet and to all appearances had found it satisfactory.
Wheatless, meatless and porkless days are complied with on our sandwich menu. Wiedemann's...Adv.
"We're going to advise Mr. Hoover," said a zoology student, "to put the salamander on his official coat of arms if he has one. It would be real nifty and timely to have a heraldic device of a rampant salamander regardant on a pale of skimmed milk couchant with three bars of fried mush dexter and a Latin motto worked in with stewed prunes."

Kansas and Nebraska Break Even In Games At Lincoln Last Week
Kansas lost her last chance to cop the Missouri Valley basketball title last Friday at Lincolne, when she dropped the first game of a two-game series to the Nebraska Cornburshers by a score of 24-23. Although the Jayhawkers came back Saturday and gave the Huskers a beating, 31-25, the defeat was enough to put the Crimson and Blue quintet out of the running and leave the field open to the Tigers and the Kansas Aggies.

The first game at Lincoln was more of a wrestling match than anything else. The contest was marred by frequent fouls by Nebraska and rugged work, particularly on the part of the Kansas five. The Jayhawkers simply could not hit the basket. With only a field goal needed to win the game, the winning punch was lacking and K. U. was forced to take the small end of the count. Captin Dutch Ulhrlaub, who is usually able to toss about three free throws in every four tries at the basket, was away off and registered only three free throws in fifteen attempts.
Uhrlaub's free throwing which had been off in the first game, was one of
Nebraska started in whirwind fashion in the second contest and threatened to make it two straight, but the Jayhawkers began, to regain some of their lost form in the latter part of the first half and the count at the end of the period was 17-14 for Kansas. The K. U. quintet increased its lead in the second half and the game ended with Coach Hamilton's men six points to the good.

Bunn and Laslett scored three goals apiece, Matthews added two and Fearing who was substituted for Miller, completed the score with one. Schellenberg and Jackson were the stellar performers for Nebraska.
