Whirlwind Teamwork Gives Kansas Contest With Huskers, 31 To 17
New Lineup Presents Defense
That Nebraska Quintet
Cannot Penetrate
The Kansas Jayhawker basketball team, playing a whirwind game that was new to followers of the game here this year, easily defeated Nebraska in Robinson gymnasium Wednesday night by a score of 31-17. The Jayhawkers started in the lead with four successive free throws by Bennett and retained a firm hold on the game throughout, although the Huskers almost caught up near the end of the first half.
After Bennett had tossed three throws for Kansas, Patty, Nebraska forward, scored twice from the free-throw line and it was not until after eight minutes of play that Bennett caged the first goal of the game. Both teams were playing fast-basketball and were guarding closely. Coach Stewart used the entire Nebraska second team in the first half with the exception of Reynolds at guard, and the men showed a world of fight and held the Jayhawkers closely.
HUSKERS PUT IN NEW MEN
After fifteen minutes of play, Lonberg, who had been playing a great game on defense, dribbled to mid-court and dropped in a long field goal, increasing the Kansas lead to seven points. Patty scored Newarka's only field goal in the half after about twelve minutes of play and the period ended with the count 11-9 in favor of Kansas. Patty's seven free throws had kept the Huskers in the running and left them only two points behind the Jayhawkers.
At the beginning of the second period, Coach Stewart decided to take chances on losing the game and sent in his entire first string lineup to crush the Jayhawkers. But the Husker coach got the surprise of his life. Every member of the Kardas team played excellent business, and the tribes had each man covered so that the Huskers had little chance to hit the basket. Lonborg and Bunn, the new combination at the guard positions, worked together perfectly and smothered every Nebraska offensive
The Jayhawkers began to leave the Huskers behind just as soon as the first Nebraska team was put into the play and Bunn left his guard position long enough to drop a couple of pretty goals through the basket. Miller and Bennett counted five field goals between them in the second period, and the best the Lincoln team could do was to score three field goals, making a total of four for the game.
KANSAS DEVELOPPS REAL TEAM
KANSAS DEVELOP'S REAL TEAM
With Miller and Bennett at the forward positions, Matthews at center and Lonborg at guard, Coach Hamilton has _ound the only real basketball combination that has appeared in Robinson gymnastics this year. Although Matthews was greatly off form on goal shooting, he got the tipoff from the Husker center most of the time and this kept the visitors on the defensive.
Bunn' shot, just as well from a guard position as from forward, and scored four field goals in the second half. Lonborg played his usual strong defensive game and his work brought praise from Coach Chester Hulkenberg. Hulkenberg scored several different shots and Miller played his usual good game. Patty, a forward, did the best work for Nebraska.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S BIG MISTAKE
PRESIDENT WASHINGTON is asking "Well," said the press agent, "It's my positively honest opinion that President Wilson is making a big mistake in going back to Europe—instead of coming to the Journalism Jazz.
"There's a hot idea. Let me play you up a good story on how President Wilson would enjoy himself if he should come to the Jazz."
The news man's face darkened.
"You hopeless fish!" he sputtered.
"Listen. I'll put it to you in words of one syllable—"
"Jazz has only one syllable."
"Shut up. This sheet wants real news. We are for Jazz, Law Scrims, W. Y. C. a mixers, Y. M. C. a mixers, Engineering and art, med muscles, all and everything that different groups of students are interested in. We want to boost everything that boosts K. U. and student interests. Every time a group of students starts something they appoint one of you press agents, and every one of you press agents is too lazy to get up a real story. We've stood for an awful lot of words. Now you've got to get something behind the words. If you can't do it or won't do it, then you're falling down on your job.
"Another thing. Nobody reads this average press agent stuff you fellows write. They know you never say anything except that the concert tomorrow night will be the finest concert since the morning stars sang together; that he debate will be the greatest forensic contest ever. Like Little and M. mixers, the Methodist pie supper and the C. E. convention will be just a little short of dedication ceremonies for the millennium.
GUM THE WHEELS OF PROGRESS
"I like all you fellows and fellowesses who come in here with press agent stuff. We're for you, the friend, plumage in the Jayhawk's tail, back up, wake up, and write something worth reading. I'm your friend, and I guess the Kansan board wants to boost every good activity on the Hill, but you idealess press agents are killing your own game by the colorless, uninteresting stuff you write.
The Moody Club will dance Thursday evening until $S_o'clock$
"Now about this Journalism Jazz Friday night in the gym, I'll give you five lines on it if you'll pass out a few of the pearls I've just spilled to the rest of this gang of press agents on the Hill."

Professor Johnson Talks Before Woman's Forum
4 Pieces VARSITY
Prose and Poetry Literature of the War is Discussed at Meeting
"Literature and the War" was the topic of Prof. W. S. Johnson's talk before the Woman's Forum Wednesday afternoon. He spoke of the quickened creative impulse which is the effects of the war in the literary field.
"At first sight, war and poetry seem miles apart," said Mr. Johnson. "Poetry is the ultimate product of literature." He concludes, "poetry, therefore, come out of war?"
“In another sense, however, they are closely connected. Poetry is a matter of the emotions and war gets us down to the emotional or primitive basis. From this point of view, poetry is a natural outcome of war.”

The beauties of the University of Illinois who put on their "Follies" entertainment in behalf of the War Fund have been said to have put the Ziegfeld chorus to shame.
Mr. Johnson divided the prose literature into three types and gave a short review of books which are examples of these types. First, those books that are questioning and hostile to the war, such as "Under Fire," by Barbushe, and "Men in War," by Andre Latzko. Second, those of the author of the war, such as "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" by Ianebz. Third, those that give the spiritual side of the war, such as "Mr. Brittling Sees It Thur," by H. G. Wells, and "The Soul of the War," by Phillip Gibbs.
