JAYHAWKERS FACING CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES
Leave for Last Invasion Wednesday - Easily Defeated Emporia 41 to 29
Kansas defeated Emporia Saturday evening by a score of 41 to 29. It was a romp for the locals and at no point did they in danger of being overtaken.
Coach Hamilton made many substitutions. The Collegians put up a stronger game than was expected and surprised the Jayhawker sharks in the beginning. However when the team forced their stride there was no stopping.
Sproul led in the scoring with twenty points to his credit.
The team leaves for the big trip of the season Wednesday to play the Tigers, Washington and Warrenburg. They will return the following weekend, but the break even on the trip they will be champions of the southern division.
Coach Hamilton is corresponding with the athletic authorities at Nebraska and Texas, where a season series to settle the question of supremacy in the Missouri Valley.
FIND ANCIENT RELICS
Students Unable to Decipher Legend on Prehistoric Wash Basin.
While on a hike north of town the other day several University men were shown some interesting relies of ancient times which a farmer had unearthed. He had uncovered the rusty remains of what evidently had once been part of an army equipment.
Some of the tools are so rusted as to be unrecognizable. The chief things which have remained intact are the hilts of several old swords and a large brass bowl. The lettering on the sword hilts can not be deiphered, and only port of the inscription is on the top of the bowl can be made out.
This vessel is about eighteen inches in diameter at the top, and is several inches larger in the middle. It is apparently made of brass. The inscription is composed of a combination of Latin and English letters, and apparently dates from the time of the Caesars. The legible part, as near as can be made out, is, "It is Apis potin Ditis ab Igno ne." This cannot be literally translated, but evidently refers to the riches of Pluto.
THIS EXPLAINS A FLUNK,
OR MAYBE IT DOESN'T
If a box that had evidently been used as a communication box for some organization in the dim ages of the past were opened and in it were found applications for seats at the Thanksgiving game, 1911, changes of address during 1910, communications to the Chancellor long grades for 1910, bits of chewing gum, since out of date, summer school old pencils, and a faded powder rag ___?
A janitor by chance opened a box in the main corridor of Fraser—an ordinary looking box like one used for University mail, and found a rare collection of antiques which may account for a lot of missing links in somebody's curricular chain up here.
So far as is known no one but Kappa Beta Phi has made any claim on the contents of the box.
That is the question puzzling Secretary Brown today.
NORTH WIND ONLY ENEMY
OF UNIVERSITY COAL PILE
At the General Electric company's works in Schenectad all life is not drudgery among the student workers. Twenty-one schools are represented at the plant and from these, twenty-one bowling teams were organized late last fall.
In the elimination contest for places in the final series the Kansas team won sixth place and the big games are still going on.
TRACK TEAM LEAVES FOR AGGIE TANGLE
With the mercury hovering around the zero mark, and 270 tons of coal in the bins of the heating plant, there is but one possibility of a holiday on account of the sudden drop in temperature, and that possibility is a stiff wind from the north. The temperature fell still last almost a week," said Supt. J. F. Brown this morning. "We burn from 30 to 60 days a day, but cold days when the wind is not blowing we do not require an unusual amount. If a north, however, it would hit the coal pile pretty hard."
Jayhawk Athletes are Confidident of AnnexingTonight's Contest With Farmers
The first annual track meet with the Aggies will be held at Manhattan tonight. Eighteen men will probably make the trip. Both Mossie and Hamilton will accompany the team.
The men left this morning in good shape and confident of making the Farmers bite the dust. The coaches were more than satisfied with the showing of the team in the recent K. C. A. C. meet and according to their instructions should clean up with about twenty points to spare.
Coach Hamilton would not venture any definite opinion on the result of the meet but is confident of winning by a good score.
The meet tonight should give a line on the men for the big indoor meet which will be held with Missouri in two weeks. Next Saturday night some of the men will be entered in the K. C. A. C. invitation affair and all should be primed for the big fracas with the Tigers.
The following men will make the rip into the strong hold of the Farmers: Captain Patterson, Black, Jones, Malcomson, Burnham, Coleman, Crane, Greenlee, Hazen, Davis, Edwards, Vermilion, McClure, Cisna, Ross, Blinco, and Hurst.
STILL BURYING COMANCHE
Montanans Think They Have Bones of Survivor of Custer Massacre
Now comes the University of Kansas to dispute the ownership of the bones of Comanche, the war horse of Capt. Miles Keogh. Comanche was the only living thing belonging to General Custer's command to escape annihilation at the battle of the Little Big Horn on June 25, 1876. The honored bones of Comanche were moved from Fort Lincoln, near Bismarck, N. D., to the Custer battle-field. But Kansas claims the carcens.
In the college museum at Lawrence, Kan., rah-rah boys and girls have yearly done homage to the bones, which a large placard said were exhumed relics of the general's charger. For 15 years the story of Custer's last stand has been told with more or less accurate detail when the Sunflower state parents went to graduation. A bronze plate tells of the six wounds in Keogh's mount and his discovery on the field of carnage.
What kind of horse the University of Kansas has for Comanche or what fake has been perpetrated at Fort Lincoln, where a tablet marks the resting spot of the charger, probably will be determined by an official investigation.
Before Comanche died Professor Dyche of the natural history department of Kansas University decided to get the bones of the horse. Arrangements were made with his owner and stipulated price was paid when the bones of a horse were delivered. The quadruped was set up and labeled "Comanche," and the bones may be his. That was in the '90s. Montana residents had supposed that Comanche's bones rested at Bismark, N. D.-Aracaonda Standard.
