Captain Greenlees. Special to Daily Kansan.
Manhattan, Jan. 30.—The Kansas University basketball team hit its stride in the game yesterday afternoon and the Aggies' suffered their first real defeat of the season by a score of 34 to 19. Coach Hamilton made a shift in the line-up, placing Weaver at center and aided by "Bred" Brown's sensational goal shooting, with nine shots from Brown was easily the star of the game, caging the ball nine times during the performance.
The Aggies used their same style of rapid passing of the ball but the Kansas team easily broke this up and by the end of the game had the Aggies at their mercy. The pace set by the Jayhawkers seemed to be too fast for the Farmers and in the last quarter the Farmers itself with merely trying to keep down the score. In that session they scored but 5 points.
Kansas Got The Jump
Both teams started the game with a burst of speed and for several minutes neither side was able to score on account of the close guarding of both teams. After about two minutes of play "Red" Brown broke away and made a beautiful shot for a basket giving the Kansas five the lead. This lead was never cut down and the half ended with the Jayhawks ahead by a score of 17 to 14.
Weaver and Brown were the heavy scorers for the Hamilton squad in first half. Weaver shot three baskets and Brown four. Both teams played fiercely, the Kansas five making up for their lack of floor work by speed and fighting. Sounders, 'the crack Aggie center was almost at the mercy of Weaver who held him to one goal and in addition collected three.
Every man starred and deserved mention though Brown was the sensation of the evening. Sproull, Weaver and Brown led the scoring and Captain Greenlees and Dunmire kept the Farmers from doing the same. McCallum starred for the Aggies. The box score:
In the second half the Farmers came back badly winded and seemed unable to stand the pace any longer. The Hamilton machine, however, was in wonderful condition and immediately set a faster pace than had been used in the first half. The Lowman five merely tried to keep the Jay-vers against the opponents but no use and the Kansas quintette added another 17 points to their lead. The game ended 34 to 19 in favor of the visitors.

UNDISTILLED WATER IN SOFT DRINKS HARMFUL
K. U. Chemists Say Carbor Dioxid Doesn't Kill Bacteria in Sodas
As a culmination of a campaign begun at the University a year ago by two members of the faculty, the German government has just issued a new regulation used in the preparation of all non-alcoholic beverages shall be distilled.
C. C. Young, assistant professor of water analysis, and N. P. Sherwood, instructor in botany and bacteriology, two years ago began an investigation of the claim of soft drink manufacturers that the carbon dioxide in their product killed all bacteria and kept soft drink products absolutely pure. The result of these analyses revealed that other germs easily survived such drinks, and that the claims of the bottlers were without foundation.
Their thesis on this subject was printed in the Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, and an abstract from this was printed in the Journal of the American Medical Association, and the Board of Health reports of the states of Kansas and Ohio, and in many other scientific publications.
One German scientific paper, Zeitschrift fr Antenauer Chemie, printed the abstract and from this came the order of the German government putting into law the recommendations of the two Kansas scientists.

The report of the Student Council regarding the Masque club was approved, and C. C. Young was appointed assistant professor of chemistry and bacteriology.
The new entrance requirements recently adopted by the School of Engineering were approved, the reimbursement of the city of Lawrence by the legislature for the paving done about the University at its expense was recommended.

At the Library These Days
THESPIANS TO TAKE SOLONS POSTPONE AEROPLANE FLIGHT VISIT TO MT. OREAD
"The Aviator," a four-act farce comedy, has been chosen by the Thespian Dramatic Club as the subject of their annual production to be given at the Bowersock theater March 11 and 12. The manuscript was secured from the American Play Co., in New York through the efforts of Clarence Sowers and the manager, Russell Clark. A try-out for places on the cast will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 in Fraser hall.
The plot of "The Aviator" deals with the adventures of a young man, who in order to increase his somewhat depleted fortunes, writes a book by that title, which sells with enormous success. The details of the book were nothing more than fabrications because the young author was entirely ignorant of all matters pertaining to him. So the genius when he goes to a summer hotel and is recognized as the so-called authority on aeronautics.
The guests fix up a race between the author and a French aviator, who is boarding at the hotel, and amusement in the plot is heightened through the efforts of the hero to retain his good reputation and at the same time get out of making, what would be to him, a directory flight
Of course, a love story runs through the entire plot and the maiden in the case does her part towards helping her sweetheart out of his troubles.
The cast is a large one and gives a good chance for all those who try out to make some part in the play.
JOHNSON AND SCHWEGLER
TALK TO KANSAS TEACHERS
Combined Ministrelly for Y. M.'s
After the address the chancellor announced that the "black-yed susans" would sing. The girls' glee club then gave two selections which were heartily enforced. Hazel Williams followed with a soprano solo which was very well received.
Prof. W. H. Johnson and Prof. R. A. Schweger will deliver addresses at the thirtieth annual session of the North Central Kansas Teachers Association, to be held at Junction City, February 20, 21, and 22.

TELLS STUDENTS HOW
TO ACQUIRE POWER
Ways and Means Committee Will Come Tomorrow-Delayed by Business
The crowd of students that overflowed the chapel this morning did not see the Ways and Means committee of the legislature. The legislators were quietly engaged in their work at Topeka, questions concerned with a measure regarding the consolidation of labor commissions having kept them at their places. They will make their visit tomorrow.
The program for tomorrow will be much the same as that planned for today, except that the committee can not, of course, visit chapel and cannot see the students at their work in class rooms and laboratories.
The legislators will arrive on an early train, and will be welcomed at the depot by Chancellor Frank Strong and a delegation of Lawrence business men. They will be conveyed to the University in automobiles, and enroute will be shown something of the city.
The morning will be spent in going through the various buildings and in inspecting the equipment of the University. This tour will conclude about 1 o'clock and a three course luncheon served in the basement of Fraser hall by the Home Economics department. The afternoon will be in going over the budget, and in a study of the needs of the institution.
Regret was expressed by Chancellor Strong that the committees of the two houses could not come when the governor was away, so get an idea of its actual workings.
"We hope that all students who have work to do in the laboratories and shops will be at work Saturday in order that the committee may have a chance to see at least something of the character of those departments," said Cancellor Strong this morning.

House and Senate to Scrutinize Appropriation at Joint Meeting
INVITE REGENTS TO ATTEND
In Order That Full and Positive Information May be Obtained by State's Law Makers.
Special to the Daily Kansan.
Topeka, Jan. 31—Kansas University's appropriation budget will be opened for inspection at a joint meeting of the house and senate ways and means committee next Saturday. In order that the committee may be provided with full and positive information concerning all items in the K. U. appropriation bills, the board of directors have invited the committee have been invited to come to Topeka o attend the meeting of the committee.
It is claimed that the committee will look kindly on the big two million dollar request from the state University and that such trimming as the budget may receive will be in a reduction of building expenses. While members of the committee have declined to make a positive statement of the K. U. budget at this time, they admit that the policy of the administration is not to hamper the progress of the big Lawrence school in the effort to save a few dollars in state taxes. Such items as appear necessary for the equipment and maintenance of the school will probably be subject to but little debate in the committee rooms, unless there is a decided change in the present apparent sentiment of the members.
The K. U. appropriation will be reported by the committee next week together with the appropriation bills for other educational institutions. A report on the proposed appropriations for the state penal and charitable institutions will be made at the same time. Almost all of the workers working out the detailed items on these bills and members of the ways and means committee believe they will be able to make their reports sometime next week.
All the Way From Eudora Did Abels Tramp Last Night.
3UT HE GOT TO CLASS
Edwin F. Abels, a junior in the College, made sixteen cents last night while most people were nestling between wool blankets. It was this way. Abels and Harry Miller went home yesterday to Eudora to attend an oyster supper. The last train arriving from that beautiful little city gets here at eleven thirty. Abels missed the train and rather than miss his 8 o'clock class this morning walked all the way back. He covered the distance in something over three hours and a half, netting about four cents per hour.
