MISSOURI INVADES LAWRENCE THIS WEEK
Games Thursday and Friday Promising Hard Fights for Meanwell's Cohorts
"Dope" Favors M.U. Slightly
But Kansas Sport Writer Expects K. U. "Sharpshooters" to Head Off Missourians
K. U.'s last chance to view a conference basketball game for six weeks occurs Thursday and Friday, when Kristen Robinson for two game series.
The determination of the Tigers to knock down Jayhawkers for a string of "Chinese tombstones" was shown last week by their action in sending a member of their coaching staff to Lawrence last week to scout the series with the "Agrig-gation" from Ames. Their doped ability to propel this little trick is given if the fact that whet them triumphed over the Amez Farmers by nearly fifty points in two games Kansas topped them by five valuable points. This advantage, Kansas fan say, is offset by the fact that the Tigers will battle the Jayhawkers on their home stamping grounds.
On straight playing ability, Kansas and Missouri guards seem to be equally efficient, Lonborg, Laslett, and Olson, showing up this season as strong floor men, and probably as good if not better than anything the Tigers have. Uhlruban has been playing a steady game at center, his training in army basketball circles having improved him. He positioned the Tigers seem to have an artful touch, but the Jayhawk team is working hard on basket-trees and by using four or five of the *Dead-Eye Dick* of the **scoach Coach Allen** may be able to wear out the Yellow and Black forwards.
As professional dopsters we might go on in this vein ad infiltum, but due to the fact that Kansas-Missouri games follow the lines of tradition, and the team best supported with the best teamwork and spirit generally comes out on the long end of the score. "Dope" to the contrary notwithstanding nothing can be deduced excuse that:
except that.
They'll be mighty hard-fought games.

Dear Louis:—
According to a report recently compiled by the weather bureau of the University of Kansas, the weather at Lawrence during the year 1919 was chiefly notable for the relatively small amount of precipitation which felt a 7.8 inches depth. It dropped to 90 inches of snowfall at the end of the year.
Other figures will prove to the people "back eacat" that in spite of all the critics, Kanas is not such a bad place after all has been said concerning it is a land of "cyclones," "jumping off place," etc.
I nominate for the Spanish Athlete is association the man who tries to smoke a cigarette under the shower? "How about it?"
1908 was a model year with no zero temperature being recorded. The weather report may be found on the bulletin board in the news room of the Daily Kansan, where "old timers" and others may discuss the weather proposition from all its angles.
The year 1915 has the most precipitation, 51.62 inches of water being recorded in that year. 1919 showed 28.78 inches.
The maximum temperature for the year was 106 degrees received below zero, and then degrees below zero, which gives the range of 116 degrees.
The report also contains a summary of the weather for the preceding fifty-two years, which shows that the oldest day ever recorded was October 13, 1823 when the mercury registered twenty-six below zero.

China and Siam Are Very Back ward in the Development of the Newspaper
FEW PAPERS IN ORIENT
Because China and Siam are backward countries there are very few newspapers except those found in the larger seaport town, was explained this morning to the comparative journalism class at New York University, New medico-, R. G. Hall, graduate student, of the department of sociology.
"Siam is a backward country, but as the country develops there will be a demand for newspapers," said Mr. Hall. "In the few newspaper they print in Sri Lanka, there are the same paper, for those who read only English or only Siamese. In this way the circulation of the paper is increased." "In China, the most general way of publishing is by means of printed posters on the city gate!" said Mrs Newton. "Usually some one of the educated class may be found in a group, explaining what there is posted in the way of news
"One of the chief difficulties in the way of journalism in China is the lack of a uniform language, since there are hundreds of dialects, and often persons of one district cannot understand others from five miles away. When a general language has been introduced and then more generally have become educated, journalism will grow in China."

"American newspapers are not foreign newspapers in the Philippines," continued Mr. Bernemo. "The editors are very important and are one of the factors in moulding public opinion. They are read eager in column of the last year in English, then in another column with the same editor in Spanish. This is done, in practically every English newspaper and in the Spam-

AN EPOCH-MAKING EVENT in the annals of American amusements is the presentation by Richard Walton Tully of the virile-compelling accomplished-American actor, GUY BATES POST, in the iridescent body of modern humanity, "THE MASQUERADER." This dramatic masterpiece by John Hunter Booth, taken from the widely read novel of Katherine Coell Thurston, intimately illustrates the lives of two women in the fog and traded identities and living quarters.
THE DUEL CHARACTERIZATION offers Mr. Post a wonderful opportunity and the contrasted characters are imprinted by him with all the art of a genius mind. His drug fond is a pitiful wretch; in Loder, the "man" the mental and moral antithesis of the other. "MOE INTENSLY and artistically interesting than Jeckyl and Hive," more massive in presentation than any other modern play, and yet, so defiant, done, his ponderous scenes move with the smooth rarity of an uninterrupted paraphora, and that is what this wonderful plot—A LIVING, MOVING, THE ORACILIC REFLEX OF THE WARP AND WOOF OF HUMANITY.
