NEW STROKE BEATS "CRAWL"
"Kahamanamu" Provs Faster Than Famous Australian Movement
From the New York champions of Kahanamoku the Hawaiian, in the New South Wales championship swimming carnival a few days ago, particularly the Olympic record holder's lowering of the world's record for 100 yards of 54 3-5 seconds by four fifths of a second, has caused a decided shift in trilateral swimming that, indeed, it could stimulate that the Australian "crawl" stroke will have to give way to what is being called the "Kahanamoku kick!"
United the New York Port
It has been contended ever since "Dick" Cavill first used the "crawl" in championship races that the leg work did not materially assist the pace of the swimmer except in keeping the body well balanced on the water thus minimizing its effect on the movement and feet sinking. But this theory was quite upset by the methods of the "Duke" and his swimming mate, George Cunha, also of Hawaii, who use the rapid independent movement of the feet, as against the Australian fashion of smacking the leg from the knee down upon water at every turn. The arm, the legs, the movements of Kahamuok and Cunha from the hips to the tips of the fingers was markedly in contrast in the races with the style which the Australian cracks pitted against them. The buried heads of Barry and Longworth of Sydney, who are among Australian's best swimmers, challenged the Hawaiian. The "duck" kept his head well clear of the water and had, what his competitors did not possess, a clear view of what every opponent was doing.

Tales Out o' School
There are two Mr. Harringtons in Lawrence. The one is a waxer of floors and the other is occupied in guiding the young hopes of future life.
A sorority matron recently called up a Mr. Harrington and this conversation followed:
Would He, Really?
"Will you come up to the house right away and wax our floor?"
"Well, er—er" I'd be glad to Madam," answered Prof. H. F. Harrington, "but I believe you have the wrong man."
While members of a University of Kansas journalism class were visiting the state capitol at Topeka recently, several of the students went through some old statute books and in doing so one of them found an old law governing railroads, part of the construction meetings meet on the same thoroughfare, they shall take to a sidetrack and neither shall move until the other has passed."
Changing History
Elda McKnight, freshman College from Hiwatha, was very interested in a photo play, "The Warrens of Virginia," the other evening and chapter with great care. General Lafayette walked out on the screen and presented Mrs. Warren with an old silver cup and Ela leened over to her escort and asked, "which were you on, in the Civil War, how?"
George Henry Beach is not the only man that Helen Hershberger, sophomore College, can influence and command. In newspaper one class, the other two may be involved with the day she had failed to pay her laboratory fee of fifty cents. She immediately turned around to Paul Rathfonf, who sits behind her, and demanded fifty cents of him. Rathfonf dog down the mess the women and now Helen isn't worrying about that fee any more.
Prof. H. F. Harrington, of the department of journalism, was formerly a teacher in Ohio State University. One day he assigned a newspaper class to hand in some feature stories. He received one on noses, one on teeth, one on ears, and one on—but the Prof. says that he became disgusted and quit reading after the third one.
Crummy Buys
Crummy Williamson has made the Colorado debate team and he is happy. As soon as he received the good news Wednesday evening he hurried out to tell his friends that Harry Willson, Booze Busenkill, Billy Kooser and Peg Vaughn. They congratulated Crummy and took him down to Brickens and made him buy the drinks. While they were drinking Crummy ton of the awful suspense which Professor Illl kept him in while the candidates were waiting for the list of the successful applicants, Mr. He made a big line of talk, first," said Crummy, "and then he read the list of names in alphabetical order. Mine was the last on the list and when he read it I had given up all hope."
Sigma Delta Chi, journalistic fraternity, is giving its annual banquet at the Hotel Sexton in Kansas City, Mo., before the track meet Friday. Most of the members of Beta chapter attend the banquet, and major members in Kansas City. The dinner will be followed by a line party in Convention Hall.
Captain Jones has not given up hope that some of the Kansas troops will be sent to the World's Fair and company to be among the first chosen.
Chairie Dietrich, junior in the Fine Arts School, who went to his home in City, Mo., Londra, recuped from the University, is expected to return to Lawrence today.
Kenneth Bishop, junior in the College, is ill and has been confined to his room since Wednesday.
The young ladies who live at 140, Tennessee street certainly enjoy playing with the snow. In fact they enjoy it so much that Wednesday night after it was too dark out of doors they took the snow into the house and threw it out upon the persons who passed by.

SAYS WAR SACRIFICES BEST MEN OF NATION
Prof. Allen Thinks it is Unnatural Selection and Not Survival of Fittest
"War," says Prof. Bennet M. Allen, head of the department of zoology, "tends to impair the racial qualities of future generations. While it may not eliminate a race, it has a tendency that way, for it selects and sacrifices the best men of a nation, or population, for military service. This results in an unmanaged selection which is the survival of the ancient warfare when there was more hand to hand fighting.
"Vernon L. Kellogg of Stanford University, states the matter thus. War and militarism which stands as an obstacle to the evolutionary process."
"Since the Napoleonic wars in France there has been an actual decrease in the stature of the people of France, so that the army height standards for admission had to be reduced.
"For in war times the most physically unfit are left behind to marry, while the strong, healthy men go into battle. They do not return in a like condition under favorable circumstances which are conducive to marriage. Opportunities for making a living are not the same for them while devastated conditions also depressing economic conditions. Again army life fosters diseases which are acquired through vice, in enforcing military service, increases the amount of vice so that even when marriage does occur a generation of degenerates follow.
"More people have been killed already in the present, war than the whole population of Servia together where the trouble originally began."
