COLLEGE SCHEDULE IS NOW COMPLETE
TWO BASKET-BALL TEAMS THIS YEAR.
Varsity Meets Baker Tomorrow Night—Missouri Reported to Be Playing Clean Ball.
The basket-ball schedule has been settled, and the two games with K. C. A. C. will be played as arranged before. The first of these two games will be played here on February 4, and the return game will be played as the first game on the trip, at Kansas City on February 16. Another game was scheduled which will be played on the trip with Iowa College at Grinnell, Ia., on February 22.
The schedule for the College basket-ball team was announced this morning. The schedule is: February 3, Bethany College at Lawrence; February 16, Fairmount College at Lawrence; February 27, Friends University at Wichita; February 28, Fairmount College at Wichita; March 1, Chilocco Indians at Chiloco; March 2, Bethany at Lindsborg; March 3 and 4 St. Marys at St Marys.
The class teams will play a tournament in the gymnasium during the week that the varsity is away on their trip.
Coach W. O. Hamilton said this morning about the coming game with Baker, "I expect the game to be much closer on their court than the game played last week. They may possibly defeat us, although I am not looking for any such outcome. The Baker team had not struck their stride when they played here and I am confident that they will make a much
better showing at the next game. Our team is now rounding into the shape that I like to see and I don't think that we will have very much trouble in winning all the games we play on the home court. "Bob" Heizer is getting back into his old shape this week.
"The boys on the Ames team report that the Missouri team is playing a far different style of game this year and that they are shooting goals better than the Kansas men. It is said that the Missouri squad has abandoned their rough "hammer and tongs" style of play."
The next game will be with Baker at Baldwin tomorrow night. On January 27 and 28 Missouri will be played at Robinson gymnasium.

MISS RANSOM'S DUCK
COMES BACK TO LIFE;
NOW QUACKS DOG-LIKE
Anybody who strolls past the house at 1140 Ohio street, has seen it. Everybody has heard about its death. But few know that Miss Mabel Edith Ransom's duck has come back. The duck that the cruel residents in that neighborhood were supposed to have exterminated Thanksgiving day, now struts up and down this highway in the same supercilious manner. The neighbors say that they killed the duck, but it now can be seen at any of its former rendezvous. So there you are. What is the explanation? The neighbors refuse to go near the "thing," as they call it, and the duck now leads a life of uninterrupted tranquility. There are, however, several changes in said duck since he came back. His once sparkling eyes now have a sunken, dark-ringed appearance, and they now look sad and dreary. His former musical quack now reminds one of a bulldog in distress, and as he slips up and down the icy sidewalk with hanging head and drooping shoulders he looks like the latter end of a dissipated career.
Miss Ransom's duck was killed, he is now alive. Who can account for the unexplained mystery?
