Basketball Women Win First Foreign Game in Polytechnic Gym Amid the despairing yells of feminine Kansas City rooters, Friday night in the Kansas City Polytechc Gym the sophomore basketball women team of the Polytechc team and won their first battle on foreign fields by a score of 26 to 17. The score at end of the first half was 9 to 10 in favor of the K. U. Women. The "sophomore" team in the polytechc half and, becoming more accustomed to a court divided in three sections, began to roll up the score. Since the game was played on a court divided in 3 sections the sophomore centers, unused to having their accustomed full range, three courts, all fully found it difficult to keep on the right side of the imprisoning white lines. This division of the court made the game somewhat slower and less satisfactory than when the players are given a greater range of activity on a one line court. Joyce Brown made a total of nineteen points, seven field and five foul goals, for the sophomores. She played with a speed, and a certain aim that exasperated her opponent Irene Tilen. Guards, played steady and consistent game, keeping their opponents from rolling up a dangerous score. Willamette Tooley, midfear toward, easily starred for the Paly-Bay game. He scored four goals to the seventeen points made by her team. The lineup: * "Polytechni" G. FT. F.

Political Meetings Harmony may exist in the law form of Buzick and Holloway but it is not of a political nature. Upon graduation from the University, Buzick and Webb Holloway, president of the senior class in his last year, formed a law partnership in Kansas City, Kansas. Buzick is now active while Holloway is a Democrat. Buzick was one of the principal speakers at the Kansas Day Republican meetings at Topeka. He made such a hit that many of his friends and other interested in Kansas City, Kansas are urging him to attend the attorney of Wyandotte, the largest and most populous county in the state. Not to be outdone by his partner, Holloway made a speech at the Kansas Democratic Club on Monday. He opined that fashion is "the birthday of men," the "Young Men's Party." He urged the Democrats to incorporate in their state platform favoring the passage of a bill that would support of the university and the other state schools. FISCHER TO EDIT KANSAN In advocating the measure he said, "14,000 students are now enrolled in the university and the other state colleges, two-thirds of which are from November." He added, "they will exert a tremendous influence over their friends and relatives on this proposition and every one of them favors a mill tax." Will Be Chief of K. U.

Lake Care Then—Professors Diagnose Preference of Seats in Class Room Miles Vaughn, Mildred Eppard, Raymond A. Fagan and Gleson L. Swongwer were elected to the Kansan Board. Is it that girls and "sissy" boys are the ones who prefer the front row in the class room? Do they choose this place just to make a good impression on their instructors, and if so, do they succeed in this, or are they really sincere in their work, and trying to get as much as possible out of the course? Some half dozen professors have pressed their opinions back on the front row in question, and maybe lowers of the front row are not so unwise in making this choice after all. Send the Daily Kansan home. BACK ROW DANGEROUS BACK ROAD JANUARY Professor Boyd wrote "The back row of my classes is the most dangerous place on the campus. A lecture course is one which demands the closest attention from students, I think, because they have to take notes, think, and listen at the same time. Those sitting in the danger of noise out if they don't pay particularly good attention." DEVIL SITS IN BACK ROW? Professor DockerKE, "When I was small and went to church, I was always taught that the devil sat in the back row. However, that may be, I'm not very partisan, where my pals sit, and the room is fairly well filled up. If the room is large and the number of pupils small I like to get them as close to me as possible." EVEN USED BY FACULTY Professor Odgen "There seems to be a natural tendency for persons to fill up the back room first. This does not apply particularly to students, for faculty meetings that the back seats are always filled up first. In my classes I seat them alphabetically except at the quiz, sections, where I let them choose their own seats." Professor Putnam "In my classes the students in the back row tip their chairs against the wall and I warn them not to break the lime. In the middle of the semester I have those in the front part of the room change places with those in the back part of the room, so that all will have the advantage, some time or another, of being close to their teacher." SWITCH SEATS "STALLERS" CHOOSE "FRONT" Professor Stouffer"I~I find that generally the older students' and those more interested in the course pick the front row, but this is not always the case. Ounomily a good "staller" will take a seat in the front and try to 'stall' his way by loud talking. If the room is not too large I am not particular where they sit, otherwise I like them pretty well toward the front." Engineers To Dance Plans for the annual dance given by the School of Engineering were discussed informally Thursday night at the Engineers' banquet, preparatory to making definite arrangements for the big event. Art Wickstrum, a junior, is chairman of the舞会 committee. The dance will occur in Robinson Gymnasium, at a date in the near future. The friends of Olim Deibert, instead of going to the notion counter for necessary articles, usually apply to him. It also makes it easier to bring his room from a horse-shoe nail to a screw-driver and scrape of old iron.
