UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY CONCERNING THE SCOOP CLUB RENASCENCE MISSOURI GAME WILL DECIDE VALLEY TITLE A Single Victory Will Make Jayhawkers Champions of the Conference The Jayhawker basketball five will meet the Missouri Tigers tomorrow and Thursday night in Robinson gymnasium in a two-game series which will decide definitely the basketball championship of the Missouri Valley. A single victory of Sproull's five over Brewer's team will bring the title to the team here, and, from present indications the Kansas team seems sure to take one of the two conclusive games. In a double header, played at Columbia, the Jayhawkers took both games of the series, one by a lead of three points, the other with a six point margin. However the games here were multiply tough, because he more conclusive, and Sproul's team looks sure to take both battles. The opening night Van der Vries and Sproili will hold down forwards, Weaver center, and Greenlees and Dunmire guards. Wear and Speelman will probably shoot baskets for the Columbia quintet, Bernet play center, and Palfreman and Carson guard the Kansas forwards. A record breaking crowd will turn out for these two battles, the big games of the year. Advance reservations are being rapidly filled by Manager Hamilton at his office in the building where he should inquire at the office immediately, as the best reservations are going fast.

NOW FOR R-R-REVENGE ON WESLEYAN, SAYS COLLEGE Will Meet Fast. Basketball Team From Salina Tonight in Robinson Gymnasium The K. U. College basketball team will meet the Salina Wesleyans tonight at 7:25 in the Robinson gymnasium. The boys from the western end of the state decisively defeated Hargigs' men in the battle staged in Salina last week, but the Jayhawkers were not on to the three-cushion billiard shots made necessary by the boundary walls of the Salina gym, and did not work the outside plays as did the home team. Tonight, however, if anything, the Salina lads will be at a disadvantage, and the game promises to be more even. The probable line-up: College: Brown, if.; Kent or Branine, rf.; Strachan, c.; Kent or Branine, lg.; and Painter, rg. INVITE K. U. TO ST. LOUIS MEET Manager of Missouri Athletic Club Asks Kansas to Take Part in Carnival A letter was received at the Gym this morning, inviting Kansas entries in the Missouri Athletic Club's athletic carnival in St. Louis, March 14. Entries are being received from all over the United States, and from present indications more than 300 athletes will journey to the Mound City to take their part in the big competition. Princeton, Yale, and possibly Harvard will represent the eastern schools: Purdue, Chicago, Illinois, and Minnesota are Big 9 entrants; Missouri and Nebraska will pull athletes from California and Leland Stanford may work for the Far West in the races that night. Manager Hamilton has not yet decided whether the Jayhawkers will enter the big mill or not. A relay race for the intercollegiate championship of America is one of the feature events to be staged. HE'D PUNISH PROF. NEVER-READ-THEMES Dean Templin Praises Honor Committee's Work Would Discipline Faculty "I am very glad to see the students take the position advocated in the report of the honor system committee," said Dean Olin Templin today. "To my mind a professor who does not read the final examination papers or term themes is infinitely more censurable than the student who cribs. Both should be punished but it is easier to forgive the student." "With the professor it is merely a matter of a little bother and comfort while with the student it is often a matter of the greatest importance. The student who cries is usually under an agonizing strain. It means perhaps as much as another year's work, but more thanears so that the temptation of the student is many times greater than that of the professor." In speaking of the recommendation of the committee that the honor system be encouraged without the aid of a special organization, Dean Templin said: "It is certainly much better to have such an arrangement and I believe the Student Council can help us to accomplish an honor court. Of course, the entire success of an honor system depends upon the sentiment. It is the heart and sole of the thing and if you have it nothing else is necessary." The chemical department of Cornell College imported from Germany a fine piece of machinery for making sodium wire. Forty-three mid-year freshmen were pledged to fraternities at the University of Washington at the beginning of the second semester.
