FIRST CONTEST ON A FOREIGN COURT
Basket Ball Team to Meet K C.A.C.in Kansas City Thursday.
GAME IN CONVENTION HALI
The Kansas basket-ball team will meet the Kansas City Athletic Club quintette in the first out of town game of the season, Thursday night. The game will be played in Convention Hall, Kansas City.
Ashley's Blue Diamonds Expect to Avenge the Terrible Beating Given them in Former Contest
Previous to this time all meetings of the two teams in Kansas City have been in the Athletic Club's Gymnasium. In the past two years, the crowd that turned out to witness the games has been so large that the movements of the players have been seriously hampered. For this reason the management decided this year to play the game in the big hall.
The original schedule had set the game for February 2, Friday, but as the use of the hall could not be obtained for that night, Manager Campbell of the Blue Diamonds and Coach Hamilton then agreed to arrange for the game a day earlier.
The score of the Kansas-Blue Diamond game here does not indicate that the Hamilton men will have to extend themselves, to win Thursday night. In this game, however, the club team will have all the advantages that favor them, including that teams last met and will without doubt put up a more determined struggle.
Henry Ashley, Coach of the Blue Diamonds, says that his men were at considerable disadvantage here, because of the glass backstops used on the local court. He claims that the men of the visiting team were unable to judge their shots for the goal with anything but standard vision. The size of the local court was also an advantage for the home team players as that in the K. C. A. c gym is much smaller; the K. C. athletes were soon tired by the long sprints, and after the
first few minutes of play were unable to keep pace with the Kansas men.
When the team meets on the Convention Hall Court all these differences will be in favor to the Kansas team and not to the improvement in team playing that this week has given them, is expected to win over the Kansas representatives.

Nebraska defeated Kansas 30 to 26. The game was played in 15 minute halftime, but lasted for an hour and a half. Reports state that Coach Steimhoff disagreed with the referee frequently and interrupted the contest. He attempted that trick here, but he promised to prop him where "to head in." A few days later Ernest Quigley could earn a nice living in this part of the country.
STUDENTS' HERALD.
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE GETS A $20,000 GIFT Will be Used for Woman's Building or a Modern Restaurant
K. S. A. C., Jan. 26—Twenty thousand dollars has come to the agricultural college from the most unexpected source. Prescinct Waters was忭ished yesterday by the Old Colony Trust Company, of Boston, that this amount had been willing the college by Mrs. Mehitable C. C. Wilson. The money is to be for a building to the regents, to be known as the direction of the regents, to be known as Wilson Hall. Or it may be added to the downtown fund of the college, as the regents may desire. It is more than likely that a dormitory for girls will be suggested by the regents, although the will makes it possible to use the money for any building called Wilson Hall. It might, for instance, be used for a thoroughly modern restaurant, which is already being planned for student use.
Mrs. Wilson died only recently. She was the widow of Davies Wilson, a large owner of the original site of the mansion that family lived in this city many years ago.

TEAMWORK TURNS THE TRICK
Kansas City Athletes Had Difficult In Finding Wind When It Was Most Needed
Kansas' team work and accuracy in basket shooting enabled the red and blue basket-ball men to win two victories last week. The Kansas City Athletic Club was defeated by a score of 43 to 15 on Friday night. The following evening the Kansas Aggies fell before Hamilton's machine to the rune of 37 to 24.
Both games showed that the Kansas team had been at work since the Nebraska games. The teamwork, the passing, and the goal shooting of the local men showed vast improvement over their performances of the previous week. The men also showed better in the evident repression of their desire for individual glory and pulled together for a Kansas victory.
The game Friday night was not a startler. As soon as the Blue Diamond men had travelled the length of the court a couple of times they were at the mercy of Hamilton's men. New men were sent in at the beginning of the second half but their breath was just as irregular as that of their predecessors had been at the end of five minutes play.
The only part of the game that lived up to advance noticees was the beautiful scrap between Brown and Terte. The old team mates fought it in great style. Neither made a goal from the field, and each did his best to keep his childhood's companion in a state of what we may call nervous excitement.

In the game Saturday night Kansas outplayed the Aggies from the jump. The Aggie team was a pretty husky appearing collection of athletes but were unable to keep the Kansas men away from the baskets. The defense of the Farmers was better than that of the Kansas City team that appeared the night before but to overcome this the Kansas men put up a better article of team work. Hite proved himself to be the best floor man on the team continually working the ball to the Kansas forwards who shot goals with more accuracy than in any previous game, Greenless showed well at guard for the K. U. men. For the visitors McCallum did the best work.

KANSAS COLLEGES TO
THROW THE JAVELIN
New Event Will Be Given a Trial In Place of the Abandoned Hammer Throw
The Conference of Kansas Colleges followed the lead of the Missouri Valley schools in abandoning the hammer throw as an event in outdoor track meets. The smaller schools were not satisfied to let the matter rest there, however, but began a hunt for something to take the place of the abandoned weight event.
Throwing the javelin has for many years past been an event in Athletic Association contests and ranks with the other weight events in the Olympic games. The Javelin is four feet four inches long and weighs less than a pound. One end is brass-tipped and pointed. It is necessary to have the javelin standing in the ground in order to make a fair throw.

BAKER DEFEATS AGGIES
Methodists Were On the Long End of a 33 to 19 Score
The Baker basket-ball toppers added one more defender to the Agglies list of three by a score of 33 to 19, Monday afternoon. The game was close and fast until the last few minutes of play when several difficult baskets at the hand of captain Listan cinched the larger score for Baker.
Much rough playing was indulged in throughout the entire contest. Captain Hehn was disqualified on account of roughness after the first fifteen minutes of play. Souders was the star for the Farmers.
The Baker men are playing a fast and aggressive game and hope to win the state championship and they have a good chance if the improvement continues as it has. "Shorty" Long of the University of Kansas referred the game.
