Missouri was in the lead till just before the half ended. The Tigers slowed up noticeably near the last part of the half, missing shirts and becoming erratic in defense, while the Kansas team tightened its defensive points. The half ended 13 to 10 in favor of the Kansas.
O'Sullivan and the second half with two baskets from the center of the court. A Kansas free ticker was anylys' game from then on.

Instructor Organizes School ir Rural Districts
Smart Plans Project
Prof. Thomas J. Smart, resistant professor of education and community navigator, has been promoting a variety of programs at schools in the rural districts. He organized the Shawnee Mission Rural High School in 1921. He has also been made supervisor over 10 years on his staff, all of his time, with the exception of attending to the general routine of the office here, in visiting these schools and being involved in regard to the courses of study, and suggesting new methods. By this careful survey, the elementary schools have more supervision than

This system has been used practically throughout the south but the middle west has done very little in the way of supervising country schools. The county superintendents have formerly done this, but owing to the amount of time it takes, they are often more over two or three times a year.
Professor Smart has made several tests in order to estimate the gains that have been secured by this pro-horse race. Smart tests in about seven or eight weeks

Lecturer Believes Students Are Liable to Accept Mis- interrotations
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1925
interpretations
The opening session of the Curry Biblical Institute for visiting delegates started with a meeting held in the auditorium of central Administration building Friday night. Students from out of town numbered 125 and some of the enrolled delegates had not arrived. At the open day, different groups were identified in an effort to become acquainted.
"When we see ourselves practically surrendering to pagan elements, and then think back on all that Jesus did for religion we see that Christianity is pretty well lost," said Doctor James. "It was footstudied, misinterpreted and used the Bible that today we cannot get at the real meaning of it," he said.
Doctor Curry asked, "Are you going to wait until your religion gets so duped that when reformers come in the room they will act as in previous years?"
"Students are liable to accept a version of Christianity handed down from their friends or parents. Thus religion becomes 42nd hand. Every generation must go back to Biblical records and reconstruct for them a central core of the whole tenor of the teachings of Christ," said Mr. Curry.
The study of the Gestitudes was taken up at the meeting of the Institute Saturday morning.
Doctor Carry discussed many of the problems of student life and bebed the delegates work out solutions, even though an example that some parents are afraid to send their children to colleges for four something will happen to them. "They really are afraid to trust their parents," she taught if children cannot be trusted to overcome evil?" asked Doctor Carry. "By Christianity Jesus meant a new life welling up in the individual, not just in the mind, go out and connect," said Mr. Carry.

President to Make Trips
Visit to West Coast Included in Plans of Coolidge
He has definitely agreed to visit New England in April or May and Minnesota in June and has invited him to travel the North and the South on his way to visit Texas where he has been invited to attend conferences. Inquiries about invitations are being considered.
Whether Mr. Coolidge will continue to spurn a private car on these future trips as he did on his Instructor's course, or not, he considered probable, however that he will use his own car on longer trips on the shorter ones.

Don't misunderstand, this is only a psychological viewpoint, but one that will not consider the theory lightly. The fact remains that the sacred keeper of time has not fattened for years and days. It stood originally at 11:28 but the cookings of the attendant have caused it to move forward. I
An eminent psychologist has suggested that the clock had been augmented with a sound alarm by the administrators and the amount of harry and noise which the location of their office naturally caused.

The roof is three feet thick, they estimated. Hence they are now within six feet of the passage lead. To Collins.
"We expect to strike the limestone roof of Collins' passageway within the next three feet," the statement read. "We expect that we should break into the cavern."
This, according to H. T. Carnimich in charge of the pit, is indicated by their survey. "Every successive development has borne out the accuracy of our survey." Carnimich based on the evidence to believe our estimate is correct.
Rain and snow during the night and the difficult character of the material caused slow progress. It required nine and one half hours to finish a three foot section. Carefully blinded the progress of the work.
The total depth of the shaft is now 54 feet. The timber section was completed at 0 a.m. this morning for excavation work was required.

Six Vanderbilt college students came in this morning with the avowed intention of breaking the digging record set by other college students who have been working in the shaft.
Due to the efficiency of the college men those in charge are hoping more of the same type will offer their services for the final effort to reach College.
With the aid of a tissue they expect to reach Collins in two hours. From the bottom of the shaft fifty-feet above the floor, he is surrounded by voices of men he had sent into the original crawlway. Did that mean there are open spaces between the shaft and Collie's tren? Would nurses carry through solid rock and
