AGGIES EXPECT TO GET THEIR REVENGE
Lowman Quintette Intends to Erase That Football
Smear
Coach Lowman and his basket tosses journey to Lawrence Tuesday to begin what they confidently expect will be a drumming for the Jayhawkers. A series of two games will be played between the schools, one Tuesday night and the other Wednesday night, and both promise to be real class exhibitions of Dr. Naismith's game.
The Manhattan team will present nearly the same line-up as they did last year and hope to be exceptionally strong. Last season this same team defeated the Jayhawks by quite a large score on their home court. This season both teams have defeated Haskell on their own court, Kansas by a 56 to 27 score and the Argies by a 44 to 20 lead. Doping out from it that it looks as if the teams will have an even break on playing strength and that will probably be the case. However, Kansas should win both games as the Farmers will be handicapped by the strange court and in addition will come here at the end of a trip.
McCallum and Young are both playing with the Aggie team and are showing up in fine style. The new recruits are also displaying accurate passing and good goal shooting.

VARSITY OUTPLAY WEAKER OPPONENTS
KANSAS HAS AN OFFNIGHT
Both K. U. Teams Victors in Start of 1913 Basket Ball
Season
Fast Washburn - eam Holds Jay hawkers to 44 to 25 Score— Midland Easy for Collegians
In the initial contests of the 1913 basket-ball season both the College and Varsity teams won from their opponents by large margins. In the game the College five completely overwhelmed the Midland aggregation and finished with a 29 to 8 lead. The second game proved to be a harder proposition than the Varsity quintet expected and Hamilton's tossers were victorious by a 44 to 25 count.
Both games were raggedly played and were not exceedingly interesting from the spectator's standpoint. The College men were a trifle off on basket shooting and floor work but this was largely due to the fact that the men have not played together very long. The Varsity, however, evidently had a bad night and in addition to missing many easy baskets, showed poorly at passing the ball. With the team playing its best Kansas should have scored at least sixty points.
Ichabods Spring a Surprise.
The Washburn aggregation started the game with a burst of speed which completely baffled Hamilton's goal tossers. In the first few minutes of play the ichabods secured a six to one lead, due largely to the over confidence of the Jayhawkers, and it was not till near the close of the first half that the Kansans cut this down. Both teams many many easy chances at baskets but the luck in the majority of cases broke with the Topekans. In this session the Washburn team played a brilliant passing game and kept the Varsity on even terms; the half ended with Kansas leading by a 13 to 10 score.
In the second half the Jayhawkers fought harder and soon jumped into the lead. With the removal of Smiley for excessive fouling and the insertion of Sproull at forward, Weaver at center and Dunnire at guard, the Varsity seemed to hit its stride and the game closed with the Washburn team hopelessly beaten with the Hamilton aggregation scoring at will, Boehm, Captain Greenees, and Smith in the Varsity while Smiles and Dream were the mainstays of the Washburn five.

College in an Easy Winner.
Midland proved easy for Coach Frank's five and the only reason for the small score was poor basket shooting by the Collegians. In the first half Midland was held to a one point score and seemed unable to get within striking distance of the goals.
College an Easy Winner.
The second half was nearly a replica of the first excepting for the fact that the Lutheran aggregation managed to score through several sensational shots by Modeir and the game ended with the College holding the large end of the score 29 to 8. Captain Green was the mainstay of the Midland team and Weidline and Eisle lead the attack of the Collegians.
TIGERS ARE HUNGRY
Missouri Shows Up Strong Against Ames--Laying For Jayhawkers
The games during the past week between the teams that will play Kansas in the future show that Missouri and Manhattan have fives to be reckoned with this season.
Reports from Columbia say that the best bunch turned out in five years is now upholding the gold and black. The two decisive defeats of Ames show what the Tigers can do. In the opening game Missouri defeated the "Aggies" easily, and to show that the victory was no fluke, Coach Brewer sent in the team of substitutes in the second sturgle and they galloped away from the Iowa farmers. Near the end of the contest the Varsity took the floor and made a runaway game. The Tiger forwards displayed much ginger and accuracy in throwing baskets. The slogan at Missouri this year is "beat Kansas."
The Kansas Aggries took the Hassell Indians into camp and outplayed them in every department of the game. The contest was played at Manhattan. The strange floor and the fact that this was an early game out the Indians at a disadvantage.

THE FUN OF THE GAME William F. Garcalon, until recently Treasurer and Secretary of Harvard University's Athletic Committee, is credited by The Harvard Alumni Bulletin with cherishing this sentiment:
Athletics in a college should mean a good deal more than turning out winning crews and teams, but the amount of money is to be measured as much by the number of men brought out of doors for exercise and enjoyment as by the number of games and races
Yale is frankly disappointed when a game is lost. It matters little whether the Yale team acquitted itself with dash and spirit—it lacked the body of the victory. Not so with Harvard players:
For those men the fun of the game is the main thing, and they can play without the stern set of the jaw which the modern illustrator imposes on all American youth.
The Harvard Bulletin adds:
-New York Times.
It is a comfort that some men can take part in games without feeling that the reputation and esteem of university rest on their shoulders.
