Nebraska's Quintet Puts Different Aspect On Conference Race
Missouri Tigers are Shoved Into Second Place by Two Defeats
Aggies Appear Contenders
The basketball race in the Missouri Valley assumed a different aspect last week when Coach Stewart's Nebraska Cornhuskers won two games from the Missouri quintet at Lincoln. Missouri had been expected to win the Valley championship again this year with very little trouble, but the two defeats puts the Tigers in second place.
Jayhawkers Will Play Four Games on Eastern Trip This Week
The gymnasium at Lincoln is very small and this may have something to do with the Tiger losses, but the Missouri forwards seemed unable to hit the basket with any degree of regularity
The Jayhawkers finish their season with a pair of games with the Huckers in Robinson gymnasium early in March.
AGGIES IN LIMELIGHT
The Kansas Aggies also came into the limelight last week and became real championship contenders when they twice defeated Drake at Des Moines by large score. The Aggies have not yet lost a conference game, but they will find the going rather rough when they strike the Tigers and Huskers. In Captain Jackson and Hustker for at forwards and Schellenberg at Center, the Cornhuskers have a fast and aggressive quintet of scorers. The Aggies also have three excellent men on the offensive in Hinds and Bunger, forwards, and Captain Johnny Clarke, guard.

Coach Hamilton's Jayhawks will take their eastern trip this week and will play the Tigers in Columbia on Wednesday and Thursday and Coach Rutherford's Washington University basketteers in St. Louis Friday and Saturday.
METF AGGIES HERE LAST
Unless the Crimson and Blue five stiffens up and plays a better brand of basketball, the team may return with more losses than victories. Kansas will fight to have, last ditch against Missouri, however, and may be able to give Tigers a drubbing in at Massacre game. Missouri has beaten Washington two games, but even then the St. Louis team showed strength and with four members of last year's team back, they will prove dangerous, Dunccker, forward, and Captain Marquard, center, are among the best goal shooters in the Valley and Russell at guard is a fighter.
Following the eastern trip, the Jayhawkers will meet the Kansas Aggies in a pair of games here, and hope to get revenge on the Manhattan five for the defeat suffered at Manhattan. Then they will end the season with Nebraska as their opponents, early in March.
Sport Beams
The Baker University basketball team practically won the state championship Saturday night at Baldwin when they defeated the Ottawa University five. Ottawa won the title last year but the goal shooting of *Buner*, Baker forward, put the Methodists to the front and kept them there. Baker had already defeated Southwestern college, the only other real contender.
Bogue, an end on the Kansas Aggie football team last fall, has been elected to captain the eleven next fall. Rhoda, an All-Village guard who has been in military service, will be out of the army in time to play again next fall, and halfback Potuek will also be out for the team then.

Profession of Nursing Needs College Women In Executive Positions
Miss Alberta Cady Answers Vocational Questionnaires Sent By University
"That hospital supervisors are desperately in need of women of character, dignity, and education," is the opinion of Miss Alberta Cady, B. S. '18, in a letter to Dr. Alberta Corbin in response to one of the recent questionaires sent out by Doctor Corbin. Miss Cass says, "The positions open to college trained women, are those requiring executive ability, such as teaching, writing and editing for nursing journals."
Miss Cady was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1918, with her major in Home Economics. She is now a student nurse in New York City. Miss Cady entered the Vassar Training Camp for nurses during the war and it was through that division that she secured her present work.
In her letter to Miss Corbin she says, I feel very strongly, since my training at Vassar Camp, the crying need for college women in the profession of nursing. One begins to realize that need when she studies the history of the trials of our pioneer nurses, and sees the actual hospital conditions and the tremendous loss of lives by ignorance and neglect."
She continues to say, "Nursing is a profession which has been looked upon as a branch of domestic service for too long a time and it is high time that women realize the importance and by virtue of the vote and personal influence place it on the same time as that of the medical profession.
001.
"I think Vassar Camp will help to increase the colleges and universities in putting a nursing preparatory course into the college curriculum and thus draw a class of women into our hospitals who have more educational background than the average student nurse.
"I feel that if college girls only new some of the things about our great American hospitals, they would lo wonders in uplifting the nursing standards and bettering conditions both in the training of the hospitals by entering the professors or workers or using their influence."

Miss Cady uses the importance of shortening the hours of nursing. She says that they are too long at present to attract women who can make good salaries at other work.

The League to Enforce Peace was organized by one hundred leading educators in June, 1915. Throughout the eastern part of the United States university heads have been generally in favor of this league.
