UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MISSOURI MEETS KANSAS TONIGHT Dope Gives Jayhawkers the Advantage in Basket Ball Battle. The Warrensburg State Normal five defeated the University of Missouri basket tossers last night at Warrensburg by a score of 30 to 26. The game was fast and both teams played hard, but the Normals were too much for the Tiger five. This defeat swings the heavy side of the dope sheet for the game in Robinson gymnasium tonight and tomorrow night toward the Kansas side. The Kansas team weathered the flunk season in good shape and will be in full strength tonight. The recent defeats of the Tigers show that they are not far in the running for the Valley championship, but Hamilton's from them in order to meet the Washington University team on equal terms. The game tonight is the first that will be reckoned in the championship. Missouri, Washington and Kansas will settle the championship of the southern division of the conference. The winner in these games will then meet Nebraska, who has securely established her position as leader of the northern schools, by defeating both Ames and Drake.

Smithens NEBRASKA LOSES STAR Jimmy Gibson, Basket Ball [Forward, Quits the Cornhuskers Jimmy Gibson, crack basket-ball forward, and some star in the gridiron game as well, has quit the Cornusker school for the remainder of the year. His departure puts the Nebraska five in a hole as he was the most dependable man on the squad. He has scored 102 points for Nebraska this year. Coach Steich is at a loss as to how to fill the position made by Gibson's leaving. It is probable that the whole team will be shifted and a new set of plays worked out, at the big forward was the center piece of many of the Cornhusher settings In the Kansas-Nebraska games here, Gibson's playing was by far the feature of the Nebraska five's work He appeared absolutely at home in the game and never fussed. His style of play was much different from that of the rest of the Nebraska squad, being almost entirely free from fouling. NOTICE TO CHECK IN . SUITS RECENTLY GIVEN Order to Return Football Duds Not Issued Before This Week— Hamilton in Bad. Manager W. O. Hamilton has been put in fear of great bodily harm. Numerous husky gridiron gladiators have approached him with threatening look and demanded the why of the story concerning the football suits printed in the Daily Kansan last night. It seems that the men who are thus wrathful, have attempted to turn their suits in at divers times and have been prevented from doing so by the fact that the store house on McCook has been closed on account of the severe winter winds that swept across the gridiron. This being the state of affairs, and known to the manager, no call to check in the goods in the possession of the football men was issued till this week. Why Not at K. U.
