Disaster to the 1915 Jayhawk?
"Head Tamer" Hackney Let Him Out by Mistake!
He flew with glee, screaming "Rock Chalk," right down to our window so he could rub beaks with his predecessors. You know we have our south window full of "old birds" dating as far back as 1883. The disastrous part of the flight was this: He did not know we had a plate glass in front of the old Jayhawks and flew with such momentum against it that he injured his right wing. We picked him up and carried him inside the store and then is where the fun began. He was so slated over the straws and new palm beach suits we were showing that he almost forgot his injured wing—it's all we could do to keep him from going back up on the hill to tell all the boys to come and look 'em over.
When "tamer" Hackney arrived he 'said he thought if the new Jayhawk would be quiet all day tomorrow he would be in fit condition to enter the window Thursday morning at 10:30. He hope so for he is a fine "bird" and will out-class all the older ones. He's for us strong, too, because we decorated him with the first two-color advertisement ever printed in a Jayhawker by any local business house. Be sure and see it.

Co-operative Cafeteria Cuts Price of Board Three Times This Year
SLAY, H. C. OF L. AT WISCONSIN
Madison, Wis.-In spite of the boost in the prices of food stuffs and the increasing burden of the high cost of school supplies, it is constantly making food less costly and living cheaper for the students who patronize the institution's big schools. How many of the students and faculty members get their meals.
Three reductions in price have been made in the present school year. This has been made possible by the increased patronage and efficient management. It is not the policy of the management to make any profit or the cafeteria. As soon as profit accrues prices are reduced.
Meats were the first foods cut in price. From ten to twelve cents a portion, they became eight to ten cents. Vegetables and soups were more expensive from five to ten cents. Pie is now four cents, instead of five cents as at the beginning of the year.
The average cost of the noon meal at the cafeteria is twenty-one cents. Breakfast costs eleven cents on the average, and supper fourteen cents.
At the beginning of the present year about 275 people were served at noon on the average. This number has risen to over 500.
About two thirds of the cafeteria diners are men. Men boarding there steadily state that they obtain a well balanced, satisfying diet for $3 or more and keep their trays filled with their trays with much deserts, seldom spend as much as $5 a week.
KICK THE SLIPPER IS THE LATEST GAME
Here's a Brand New Pastime
A lone traveler up Indiana street the other night witnessed a most interesting little comedy. On the front steps of a certain big white house sat two women, whose rather startling conversation floated down the Hill to the ears of the surprised traveler.
"i bet," remarked the first maiden
that "I can kick my slipper farther
than I can kick my heel."
The lone traveler ceased to travel, stepped behind a tree, held his breath and waited. The first maid balanced speculatively on the top step, glanced carefully up and down the street, took one deep breath, and a couple of wide swings (the new fashions, the new techs) left him shriek, as the slipper landed with a small thud in the grass out near the street.
"Done," cried the second maiden,
hopping up with alacrity. "The
stars were here."
"Pretty good," admitted maiden number two, "But just watch ME." The traveler did. Maiden, number two balanced even longer, and swung even more energetically than maiden number one. The person, and landed—where? on the walk? in the grass? in the road? No. On the roof of the big white
"Hurray for me!" squealed the kicker, and proceeded to hop joyously down the walk in pursuit of her property.
house. Let him who can, explain it
the traveler couldn't.
"Whee!" gasped the kicker, gurgling rufely at the slipper peeping coyly over the eaves. "I guess I am the champion."
"Good gracious," protested maiden number one, "How was I to know that we were trying for the altitude record."
HOCKEY ESTABLISHED
HERE NOW---DR. GOETZ
And the lone traveler chuckled to himself all the way up the Hill.
An organization has been perfected among certain university fraternity men to be known as the "Dandelion Club." The purpose of the organization is to develop and encourage the sending of dandelions in place of expensive hot house flowers for young ladies to wear at formal parties. The university campus is actively encouraging college color and the members of this new organization hope to be of great benefit to the school in ridding the grounds of this troublesome flower as well as saving themselves considerable expense in the way of floral offerings—Daily Nebraskan.
NEW CLUB ORGANIZED
Nebraska Students Will Send Dandelions to Lady Friends
Physical Instructor Believe Kansas Will Have Women's Team Next Year
Women's hockey has been driven out for the rest of the year by the May Fete, according to Dr. Goetz. "We want to spend all our time for the next two weeks practising for dances and games," he said. "The contests will be coming along and everybody will be too busy, for hockey," said Dr. Goetz, this morning.
"But we made a start this year, and we want to keep on with hockey next week," he said. "We beganning was pretty aneurighour as we are apt to be, and we have made mistakes and may seem not to have accomplished much. But we have started things, and will profit by our mistakes, and I am disappointed this spring by lack of proper hockey clubs to play with, and by delay in getting the field ready for use. Things will be better next year, and we will know that team we have been hoping for."
Sport Hash
The baseball team leaves tonight for the northern trip while the track squad invades the Nebraska territory on Saturday. Dix Teacherman and his team will join a journey to the town to meet Missouri in a dual tennis meet. Next week will be virtual' Missouri week at K. U. for the Tigers play baseball here Thursday and Friday. The team will rackets come on a little sport with jaysharks on Saturday.
The baseball nine which meets Ames Thursday and Friday will not be the same as that which took the Chinks down to defeat earlier in the season for last week's trip put the men in a crippled condition. King has a broken leg, but he will remain kept out the remainder of the season. Chinery, who tore a muscle in his leg is improving rapidly and is able to take part in the practices while DeLongy laid out temporarily with a knee injury which will allow him Some shifting in the lineup will doubtless be made for the games on this trip.
Ames took an easy track meet from Nebraska Saturday by the score of 83 to 31. This makes things look rosy for Coach Hamilton's tribe because it gave them their first chance to size up the Cornhuskers' strength. Nebraska's only first were in the pole vault and the broad jump. Kansas is strong in the distances and should win again even though it was awful. It is not going to be a walk-a-way, nothing like that—for Captain Edwards is under the doctor's care the week and Kirk Hilton is almost under with a severe cold.
He Studied Oolites
E. C. Bulbertson, a graduate student, spent Monday studying the geology of oilites about Munsey and Lake Superior; he then studied Dr. John Bennett, of Kansas City.

MADAM PANDORA SETS FASHIONS FOR OREAD
But Lays Hat and Coat Aside
Coming events are beginning to cast their shadows. Dr. Goetz has started the women who are to be in the May Fete dances to practising out in the open on the golf links. Tardy wanderers strolling toward their 10:30 o'clock classes were greatly entertained this morning at seeing the Gym room, and the women's class skip fairly quickly out over the grass to the links. They were stylishly attired in bloomers and middies, with sweaters, coats and rain coats of all length and pattern adding variety to this costume.
The height of fashion was reached by one damsel, identified by some passersby as the famous Madame Pandora, who sailed forth in a stylish dress and with a most fetching hat perched on her head. Pandora and coat became somewhat troublesome during the dance, and Pandora had to lay them aside, in the interest of grace. The women will practise formations more muscular than the natural, amphitheatre back of the baseball fields. Speakers not exhibited.
