An Impelling Narrative of the Man of Sorrows

the false friend coming close to him so as to betray him with a kiss; the friend who believed in him, and on whom as on a rock He had hoped to build a house of refuge for Man, denying him as the bird cried to the dawn; his utter loneliness, his acceptance of everything; and along with it of such scenes as the high priest of orthodoxy rending his rainiment in wrath, and the magistrate of civil justice calling for water in the vain hope of cleansing himself of that innocent blood that makes him the scarlet figure of history; the coronation ceremony of sorrow, one of the most wonderful things in the whole of recorded time; the crucifixion of the Innocent. One before the eyes of his mother and of the disciple whom he loved; the soldiers gambling and throwing dice for his clothes; the terrible death by which he gave the world its eternal symbol—The Cross.

We make our Easter bow
To every Easter beau,
For we can show him how
To crown his manly brow
And shoe his shapely toe.
Let him be lean or square
We'll clothe him cap-a-pie
And give him such an air
Twill make his rivals glare
—And envious souls cry
"Gee."
Come here for your Easter outfit.
Tom—That Miss Biggles is the poorest conversationalist I ever met.
Tom—Sure. The only thing she said to me the whole evening was "No," and I had to propose to her to get her to say that.

NOW A TOURNAMENT OF HANDBALL SHARKS
Call for Meeting Tuesday Night to Organize-Faculty Team Strong
Come on, you handball fiends! Now is the time for every good man to come to the aid of his country.
Preparations are being made for a handball tournament, singles and doubles, provided enough men signify their willingness to enter.
"I think the movement started for a handball tournament is of real merit, and I am behind it heart and soul," said Dr. Neismith today. "Here is a chance for students who believe the same to come out and play.
A meeting of everyone interested in the formation of such a tournament is called for Tuesday night at 7:30 in Dr. Naismith's office in the gym. If enough students are interested entries will be called for in the singles and doubles, and the handball tournament will be on in earnest.
"Our lone handball room is crowded every afternoon, and a bunch is always waiting to play. Now let these men get together and fight the thing out. A good handball tournament, with lots of interest and a large number of entries would do wonders in aiding my appeal for more courts. There are many handball sharks in the faculty also, and if our tournament proved a success, they might get up a team, say Dean Johnson and Registrar Foster, and challenge the winners."
Herb Taylor, a member of the Wisconsin Varsity swimming team broke the world's record for the 100 yard breast stroke event at the meet in Chicago recently. He finished in 1:13 3-5.
Coach Page of Chicago says that the farmer boy has ceased to play the prominent part in athletics they once did, and those few who do star in athletics usually get married just when they are needed most.
KANSAS RIFLERS IMPROVING
Have Chance to Win Next Meet-
Team Average Climbing
The Kansas Riffers have a good chance to win the meeting meets with Oklahoma and Nebraska, according to Captain A. J. Weith.
Oklahoma and Nebraska started out this season shooting about 800, while Kansas stood at 700. Now Kansas is shooting 890 but the other teams haven't passed 850.
Kansas has developed some good marksmen this fall. One man, Ewing Scott, shot only 700 at the first of the year. At the last meet he averaged over 900.
More men are wanted to enter these shoots. Every man that can hold a rifle and see a target is eligible for the coming meets with Oklahoma and Nebraska.

SPRING HAS CAME--
FIRST BALL GAME
Stars Beat Runts 6 to 1 — Seventeen Men
Out
The first baseball game of the season took place on McCook field Monday night between two pick-up nines from Coach Frank's baseball squad. From 3:30 to 5 a fast game went on, after which Frank drilled the men on sliding to bases.
Captain Buziek with his "star" nine beat the Runts in a four-inning game, 6 to 1. The game was well played considering the short time the squad had been practicing.
"Bun" Wilson made the only home run of the day. The ball got by left field and went to the fence at the east end of the field.
Hobbs and Schenck both pitched consistently. Davis at center field nabbed two perfect flies after long runs. Sommers and Siebert, catchers, showed up as experienced men behind the bat. Ebnother played first on both sides because of the lack of eighteen men to play. McCary pummed and got away without serious injury. The line-up was as follows:
Stars: Hobbs, p., Summers, c., Bun Wilson, ss., Ebner, 1st, Painter, 2nd, Ward, 3rd, Hicks, cf., Buzick, ruf., Kistler, If.
Runts:  Schenk, p., Siebert, e,
Smith, ss., Ebner, 1st, Hartman,
2nd, Staley, 3rd, Davis, cf,
Dunnire, f. Loveless, lf.
Coach Frank said today that positions on the team would not be selected for some time.
More than 160 teams from universities, colleges and schools in all parts of the country have registered for the relay races to be held at the University of Pennsylvania on April 26.

IN CHAPEL MONDAY
In First of Muek-Raking Series Kansan Cub Makes Startling Expose on Daily Worship.
Eleven members of the faculty were present, nine on the platform, Dean Skilton at the pipe organ and "Uncle Jimmy" modestly seated in the audience.
Forty-eight people attended chapel Monday counting the girl who came in late and finding that she had gotten into the wrong pew immediately left.
In the gallery there were sixteen persons, including the two doorkeepers who must attend or lose
their jobs, and the two couples who found the breezes outside too strong and came in late to continue their "fussing."
Downstairs twenty-four stray Saults were distributed around so as to prevent congestion in any one spot. The girls outnumbered the boys in a pronounced manner. Some of them, evidently afraid that they would be unable to secure seats, had arrived a half hour early.
Nothing startling occurred during the service.
