Since 1908 there has been an annual red mark on the University calendar some time in March to signify the state basketball tournament when Kansas spirit steps out to greet teams and rooters and coaches from over the state. over the last tournament. Back in, 1908 the first tournament was held in connection with the invitation truck meet, with only six teams entered. Halstead won the championship and kept it for two years. There were no girl's teams entered for the first meet, but in 1909 the basketball tournament was separated from the meet, and the girl's state championship was decided at the University tournament. The banner year for entries was 1917, as sixteen*teams played, but for excitement and surprises 1918 was first, according to University athletes who have watched several tournaments. "They were fast games last year," said one Kansas athlete, "and they upset all dope. Maybe that was because of the pep the high schools showed. It was great, and the games were great. The boys from Arkansas City played a mighty good game, but they defeated Newton by just three points. The last minutes of play brought out more enthusiasm than I ever saw before at a high school meet. The girl's finals were a惊喜, too.

High School Student Discovers Mount Oread "The first word we heard at the railroad station," said a visiting H. S. haskettier, "was The Hill. The second thing we heard in the taxi was The Hill. The third thing we heard at the 'house' was The Hill. For goodness sake what was The Hill? It seemed to be the thing of Lawrence. "Being new to the town, we didn't like to show ignorance by asking questions. So we went to sleep hearing some one talking of The Hill. Enlightenment, please!" "Then they told us to start for The Hill. As we walked along we began to notice a slight rise. Perhaps after all The Hill was a hill, we thought, and not some student slang. Then we climbed. We discovered Mount Oread, and it is The Hill; more, it's THE HILL." The Jay Walk Will be the BIG DANCE of the year Annual Dance given by the WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASS'N.
