WOMEN SCHEDULE DOUBLE HEADER
Junior Women vs. Ottawa University, Freshmen vs. Polytechnic Saturday
The big basketball games of the season for Jayhawker women will be in Robinson gymnasium at three o'clock Saturday when the undefeated junior women's team clashes with the Ottawa University team, and the unbeaten sextette will battle with Polytechnic Institute sextette of Kansas City.
Both of the games promise to be hard fought from start to finish. The junior women showed up exceptionally well in the practice yesterday. The feature of their playing was the ability of every player to pass fast and accurately, while the forwards hardly played well. Dr. Daum, a running center, has been playing a stellar game in practices and will be in the game Saturday.
Enthusiasm in women's basketball runs high, according to Coach Pratt; women cheerleaders will install the K. U. fighting spirit into the Jayhawk teams by leading the women fans in some roaring Jayhawker yells.
Serubby Laslett played the fastest floorwork for Kansas and also ranked second in the Kansas scoring with five field goals.
The junior lineup for the game will be: Sara Trant, Joyce Brown, and Dorothy Querfeild, forwards; Captain Dorothy Tucker, Gladys Dissinger, and Freda Daum, centers; Ruth Endacott, Lucile Sterling, and Nelle Leibengood, guards. The freshman line-up will be announced later.
SPORT BEAMS
The Uhrlaub twins played a good game and showed evidence of teamwork. Their chief characteristic is the speed at the first and fight to the finish.
The standing of the Missouri Valley Conference teams at present is:
G. W. L. Pct.
Missouri 8 6 2 .750
Kansas 9 6 3 .667
Aggies 4 6 2 .667
Ames 5 2 3 .400
Drake 1 0 1 .000
Nebraska 2 0 2 .000
Washington U. 5 0 5 .000
Benway, Washington U. left forward, made the biggest hit with the audience last night. At one time he took the ball away from Lytle, Kunan and drilled the entire length of the floor at top speed, and then shot goal.
Skating is the king of outdoor sports at present. Sunday afternoon almost five hundred University students and citizens of Lawrence were skating on the Kaw river. People of all ages and sizes were there, from under the age of ten to the senior haired man about sixty-five or seventy years old.
Prof. Arthur MacMurray, of the department of public speaking, and Dorothy Querfeld, star forward on the junior women's basketball team and all-round athlete, were the stellar performers on the ice.
Professor MacMurray gave an exhibition of a fancy stunt known as the Crazy-Pall, which was real thrilling. The exhibition was that he left out the fall.
Fat Nelson, captain of the K. U. basketball team, and Harold Miller, Varsity high jumper, are enrolled in the class of Women's Principles of Sport. The other cock is the other senior enrolled in this class in which there are fourteen
women. Many of the women are looking forward with anticipation to the time when these three men have to make their way under the tutelage of Hazel Pratt.
The junior and freshman girls' basketball teams practiced Saturday morning in preparation for the two games Saturday afternoon, February 17. The freshman girls will play the girls' team from the Junior Polytech team, while the girls' team will play the girls' team from the Ottawa University. In the Saturday practice the juniors easily defeated the freshman team.
Many women are swimming daily in the Robinson pool in preparation for the swimming meet to be held soon.
Missouri won from Nebraska Friday at Lincoln, 18 to 16, and Saturday, 18 to 7. A play-off period was determined the winner of the first game.
The Kansas Aggies made twenty-seven fouls in the series just ended at Manhattan which they won Friday, 34 to 17, and Saturday, 46 to 17. If they make that many in the two games at Columbia this week, Missouri will have at least a twenty-point advantage in the two games.
The class of the K. U. basketball team when they are playing true to form is best shown by the fact that Chicago at Ames Saturday, 27 to 20
Russell Hathaway, captain-elect of the Indiana football team, won the Gimbel prize for having the best habits, scholarship and the attitude of any athlete at the Hoosier school. Identically, Russell hath-a-way about him.
The baseball squad at the University of Missouri is increasing in size daily. Prospects for an Easter training trip in the South and an Oriental tour next summer brought the former vacant-lot players out en masse.

fected in artistic form this early dream. For several years he was stage manager and play reader for David Belasco. Then he started his Portmanteau Theatre which incorporated the good points of such little theatres as the Berkely Lyceum, the Neighborhood Playhouse, the Thimble Theatre and the Punch and Judy Theatre.
An interesting repertoire is to be given here Feb. 19. In the afternoon, two of Mr. Walker's own fanciful little one acts, "The Trimplet" and "The Very Naked Boy" will be presented.
These players are the first professionals to give this quaint old comedy, "Gammer Gurton's Needle." In the evening, are two more of Stuart Walker's own famous plays delightful titles of which show much the art of stagework, the playwright and manager. The last play to be given Monday evening, is Lord Dunsany's masterpiece, "The Gods of the Mountain."
The seat sale opened Feb. 12, at the Round Corner Drug store and the Extension Division Office. Already in two hundred sevents have been sold.

"Behind the Scenes"
No.1
This being the first of a series of talks about the coming Dramatic Club production,
"UNDER COVER"
In tomorrow's Kansan we will tell you about "The People"—who they are and what they are. This will be No. 2 in our series of "Behind the Scenes" talks.
Is a 4-act "Mystery Play" dealing with "hush money" and smugglers. The crookedness of the U. S. Customs officials in dealing with smugglers, is exposed in a most unexpected way.
—the play
Extreme uncertainty exists thru-out the play, as to the identity of a certain mysterious stranger and it is not until the last few moments that the audience is lifted from its suspense.
Beautiful girls also have their part—sirens and detectiveettes fit here and there thru-out the play. It is needless to say, after this, that a pretty little love affair winds its way thru the plot.
THE AUTHOR
Is Roi Cooper Megrue, an American playwright of wide reputation. He is the author of the present success, "Under Fire" and last season's remarkable play, "It Pays to Advertise."
