U. -Satisfactory results (Carolyn McNutt) Ko, W. Horn, A. H. Frost, K. J. Wilhelmman, Agita Bell 1441 924 La. Blanche Simons is very stuff today, so she says, from playing hockey yesterday in Gym. We hate to mention it, but there have been several rumors about her playing at the present time with the girls. Isn't it funny that they all want to get thinner? We aren't implying that Blanche has any such ambitions—she doesn't play basketball or other sports she shows a great deal of enthusiasm over the game. Those new silver cups over in the trophy case, all shining and costly-looking, make lots of K. U. men and women wish they were back in high school. There are two cups offered to the girls and girls and two for the two runners up. The tournament this week will be a fighting good one. Allie Carroll has no young son, so he has been forced to put all his fatherly hopes towards the bringing up of his little daughter. "I am going to make my daughter the best tennis player in the state of Kansas," he said proudly, "and if she still shows enthusiasm, I might make her the best the United States has ever played. I will play football, baseball, basketball, hockey, and every other game ever heard of. And I want her to be a second Annette Kellerman in the swimming and diving line." Go to it, Allie. Several girls have been limping around lately with sore ankles and black and blue spots. This is the result of the girls' hockey teams. Some of the members have not yet learned to wield their hockey club with much grace and dexterity, but they occasionally succeed in caging the puck. If the person who wrote the kick against "Sport Hash" suppressing the news wants to know which one of the track men has been smoking just let him stick around the Gym and see which man speaks to "Sport Hash" with the most vindicative and malicious tones Coach McCarty says he hasn't any heaver showing relationship to Christie Matthewson, Eddie Plank, or Lefty James. Why couldn't some of the fine slingers among the girls' fast baseball teams try out for a position? They would certainly cut some figure, not to mention doing an inestimable favor for their school. And McCarty is such a good-looking man, too. George Horine, former world's record holder for the running high jump, made his first appearance since his advent into matrimony on the Stanford Campus Saturday when he captured the junior jump. He made "Rick" Templeton. Horine says he is in better condition than ever, and is going to recapture the record which Eddie Beeson took from him last May. Beeson is also married, but announces that he is through with his competition. He needed to the village of Healdsburg where he is partaking of the simple life. It is getting warmer now, and pretty nearly time to go up the river on some of these pretty moonlight days and sunshine nights. Why don't some of the girls lucky enough to get a chance as companion on one of these expeditions learn to do the rowing? Then, when K, U, gets busy and the wife will be in fine condition to go out for the crew. This is combining business with pleasure—but more especially pleasure. The Athletic Board wants it distinctly understood that there is no specific rule regarding the granting of the school letter. Hereafter they intend to grant the letter to any one attaining great skill or proficiency in any major sport. The Board will be the judges. Doctor Goetz has lots of initiative. She can coach teams in basketball, hockey, women's baseball, and tennis. She is also a pro dancer and dance like Gertrude Hoffman. Coach Hamilton must have like the taste of basketball he got in 'playing on the all-star team after the second Missouri game. This morning he was acting both as referee and player with a bunch of girls in the Gym. The Athletic Board at a meeting yesterday decided to grant basketball KS to a team in the State tournament.

Washington Gladden Thinks Scrip tures is Key to Reading BIBLE BASIS OF LITERATURE From the New York Sun From the New Book by John F. Lewis, we have been learning during the last half century that a knowledge of English literature is an indispensable element in public education;" writes Washington Gladden in the Atlantic Monthly; "that 'in getting to know,' as Matthew Arnold contended, 'the best that has been said and thought in the world,' we broaden our horizon and purify our ideas, and we have grown the cities of citizenship. Our colleges and universities have been enforcing this truth upon us by their requirements for admission. "But if a knowledge of literature is indispensable to the education of a citizen, acquaintance with the English Bible is surely fundamental for that knowledge. All our best English literature is in the Bible by Biblical quotations, maxims, metaphors, characters, allusions; the one book with which a reader needs to have familiar acquaintance is the English Bible. It is ridiculous for any one to undertake to teach English literature who does not know his Bible at least as well as he knows his Shakespeare. On the pages he is under the table the Bible five times where he will meet Shakespeare once. For purposes of critical exposition, it is certainly quite as necessary for him to understand Jacob as to understand Shylock; familiarity with Job is of greater practical value than familiarity with "Paradise Lost."

HOSPITAL Eight morphine habitates are being cared for at the University hospital at Rosedale and five more will be taken in as soon as a place to quarter them can be found, according to Associate Dean Mervin T. Sudder today. Since the new drug law went into effect, the University hospital has received forty applications for aid and has therefore been required that it has been necessary to refuse all but the worst cases on account of the lack of facilities for taking care of them.
