By taking two games from Kansas Thursday and Friday the Missouri Tigers virtually eliminated the Jayhawkers from the Missouri Valley basketball race, leaving only the Houston contenders as strong contenders for the title. While the Tigers were winning at Lawrence the Ariens had no trouble in winning two games from Bennie Owen's Sonnets at Manhattan. The Drake-Grinnell game at Grinnel on Friday was only other conference game of the week.
The first Kansas-Missouri game was decided in a five minute play off after a rally午夜 had enabled the team to win the lead and tie the score. The final
score was 32 to 27. In the second game the Jayhawkers went to pieces at the opening of the second half and scored four goals. The Jayhawkers held their own on floor work in the two contests but missed many shots for the basket while the Tigers made the most of their chances, scoring a big percentage of their shots. The Tiger stars in the long series while Laaslet and Captain Lomborg divided honors with Harms and Body, two substitute forwards for the Jayhawkers. Coach Meenwalt stated after the series that the Jayhawkers would be guarded he seen on a court.
The Aggies defeated Oklahoma 37 to 18 and 26 to 14 in the two games at Manhattan on Friday and Saturday. The Farmers clearly outclassed the Sooners and their teamwork featured the series. Dunger, Aggie forward was the star of the series with eight field goals in the first game and four in the second. Cox lead the Sooners in scoring with four baskets
on cable connectors,
mostly long ones. The guarding of
the brothers kept the Sooners
away from the basket and forced them
to resort to long shots.
Drake captured the other coniferce game of the week by defeating Grinnell 18 to 11 at Grinnell. It was the first conference game for the Bulldogs. Drake figured in two nonconference games during the season, scoring 22 to 16 and 17 to 15 in two close games at Sioux City. Ames opened the week with a 28 to 19 victory over the Iowa Teachers' College at Ames on Monday but lost to Iowa on Friday 21 to 15. Washington had an off week

Washington 2 2 .000
Oklahoma 0 2 .000
Gunnell 3 0 .000

By far the most important series of the week will be the Kansas Aggie-Missouri series at Columbia on Friday and Saturday. The two schools have fought it for a second championship, the last four years and three forms shown by the two teams this year one of the two should win this win. The Tigers have won from Ames, Washington and Kansas while the Aggies have defeated Grinnell and Oklahoma. The games at Columbia will be the home court and will be the first Aggies series away from home.
Washington will figure in the other four conference games of the week taking a four day trip. On Wednesday and the Thursday the Pikers meet Ames at Ames. On Friday they will meet Gunnell on Saturday, finishing on the week with a game against Grinnell at Grinnell on Saturday.

NEW QUIZ "LAN
PROVES BENEFICIAI
Classes in Physical Education Will Not Write Their Knowledge
"We are having good success with our physical tests or quizzes, and hope to make them a regular institution in the department", said Dr. Naismith, head of the department of physical education.
The tests, which the classes are given, consist principally of a specified group of representative exercisers, who practice on shoulders and upper parts of the body. A schedule of the required exercises was given out several weeks ago, so that the classes have had time to practise them in preparation for the tests.
Grading in the quiz is entirely at the option of the instructor in charge Some pupils fail to perform some of the tests, while others are weak in certain ones, but on the whole the pupils are showing up very satisfactorily. Very few fail entirely to perform the tests.
Simple swimming try-outs are also included in the quiz. Those who cannot swim receive regular swimming instruction.
"These quizzes are very beneficial in that they strengthen the shoulders and upper parts of the body," said Dr. Naismith. "There are few indoor games that develop these parts in proportion to others, so the tests give the added benefit of developing an all-round strong body."

These dances have been widely played, not only in all the leading American cities by practically all the symphony orchestras, but also in London where they were one of the first four American orchestral compositions presented; and in Tokio where they were one of the first four American orchestras presented in Tokyo where they share honors with MaxDowell's First Suite at Yamada's symphony concert last summer.

In a few words he expressed deep admiration for the magnanimous work of the boys under conditions which the miners said it would be impossible to work without them.
