HAMILTON NOT BLUE
Feels Good Despite the Husker Drubbing Last Week-end in Lincoln
It was a cheerful W. O. Hamilton that greeted visitors this morning despite the pair of basketball disasters that happen each year. With its week-end junt to Lincoln, theair of the Nebraska Cornhusker.
While never putting out many alibis after losing an athletic event, the czar of Mount Ouread athletics admitted this morning that only a weed decision gave Glowawy the Agent coach who referred the Northern series, kept Kansas from a victory in that opening one point defeat. With but a minute to go, Gibben made a pouch from near me but the near me agent, the Lowman kindly called him out-side and disallowed the score. Then to make matters worse a foul was assessed when the pewed Mr. Gibben politely told the player he would greatly prefer to see him in a warmer climate than Nebraska.
In the second game Saturday night, the team went fine until the last five minutes when the blowup came and with it the thirteen point margin by which the Huskers won the contest. The final score was 40-27.
As a result of the disastrous series the Jayhawker basketeers are probably in a lower position in the Missouri Valley Conference race than ever before. Missouri with ties to victories over Ames and Washington won all three honors won army trophies. Nobraska is second. The standing follows;
G. W. L. Pet.
Missouri 4 4 0 100
Nebraska 2 2 0 100
Ames 4 1 3 250
Kansas 4 1 3 250
Washington 4 2 0 200
Kansas Aggies and Drake, no games played.
Because of a conflict with Mrs. Eustace Brown's party February 25, Manager Hamilton has charged the date of the Lawrence series with Missouri until Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 28 and 29. Two track meet dates have been definitely decided upon, the indoor Kansas Aggregate at Mount Rushmore, Feb. 21 and the annual dual meet with Missouri in Convention Hall being on March 17 the same week-end as the big high school basketball tournament.
SPORT PICKUPS
Another K. U. indoor record—if there is such a thing—took a tumble yesterday afternoon when Rodkey ran the half mile in. This is another Robinson track but Coach Hamilton held the watch on the race and swears that the time is accurate unless his watch was cutting up. But the watch was correcting accuracy and Rodkey's new mark will prophey his 2:06:4 set last year.
The indoor records on the Robinson cork are not recorded as official even when made in a meet. But the tracksters take pride in remembering the best time in all the events made each year and it is a happy man who can
beat one of the records even though the new or old one will not be recorded.
Looks Like a Student But He,s a K.U. Dean
Coach Patterson is laid up temporarily with the grip but expects to be out for practice this afternoon. In his absence Hamilton has to take time away from his field event men on the first floor to timing tracks. Ocott is helping with events also. How weights this week also.
It is unusual for such a low record to be set this early in the year. In other years the pace became faster gradually and near the end of the indoor season the best time would be recorded. Rodkey's new record will doubtless stand up the year will happen. The record for this year in the half was about six seconds slower than the time set yesterday.

Grady, Stateler and Groene ran a fast two mile Saturday afternoon. They finished in the order named with Grady crossing the line in 10:31. Stateler was one second ahead of Groene. Stateler's heels. With three men running the two mile in this time Hamilton ought not to worry for lack of two milers.
During the first term of this year, Niedorf of Missouri was not in school. No definite report has been received yet in regard to his returning for this semester but the chances are that he will be on hand for the Conferences and may also attend Of course, it is not his business to notify Kansas of his intentions but the Kansas track men are counting on his appearing in Schulte's line-up.
LEADERS OF MEN
If Niederm does return to the Tiger school, Schalte is going to have a rey team, that will make the other Valley teams stand up and take notice. "We'll be the only one missing from the team which went to the Penn games last April. Then they will have Rider and Pittum to fill in this gap. It looks as easy as that," Schalte said, then to cinch the Convention Hall meet before the relay is run.
LEADERS OF MEN
As college presidents in essays, addresses, and commencement orations put it, "The aim of the college is to train leaders in every branch of life in which the college graduates find work." The root of the blind man said stepping off a precipice, but there are several kinds of leaders, leaders of thought, leaders of action, and leaders of men.
When the student tucks his diploma away in the bottom of his trunk and sallows forth into the wide, wide world, or when the student ambles with it, we will find that the chief ability to handle men, to lead men, to know human nature—he must be a leader of men. The only way to learn how to lead men is to lead them. "Do the thing and you shall have the power to do it," he says, "then they will know the power." Knowledge of the ways and nature of humankind can be only acquired by doing, not by studying; by acting, not by theorizing; by tolling, not by dreaming; by striving, not by sleeping; by being trained; by training. Such experience can be gained most satisfactorily in college through the agency of extra-curricular activities. To fit himself for a position as a leader of men the undergraduate has to lead in things, has to manage others, it will not do for him just to be liked and to be a good-natured companion of more aggressive men.
Todd Heads Academy
The man who engages in college journalism, the man who plays on an athletic team or manages one, the man who takes part in any form of college sports, the man from afar work is learning to know human nature, is learning how to be agreeable and saue in trying circumstances, how to lose his self-consciousness and come out of his shell into an adultiant effort. He is gradually developing an individuality and a personality, learning and obliterating his own idiosyncracies and coming to tolerate those of others, and is gaining control over like-minded individuals and power of what "He who has much looked on at the childish satisfaction of other persons in their hobbies, will regard his own with only a very ironical indulgence. He does the demystics. He will have a great and cool allowance for all sorts of persons and opinions." Of such are the leaders of men—Columbia Spectator.
