Speaking
 of Sports

William Allen White, editor of the Emporia Gazette recently sent his society editor to write up a basket ball game with dire results. To even up the score, he sent the sports edi- tor to cover a concert. The result was as follows:
 "Hulda Lashanska, German Bo- hcmian voice-thrower. who is mak- ing an exhibition tour of this coun- try. performed at the College of t.mporia Monday night before a well-hlled arena. The bleachers were packed. The husky singer went for full four quarters. mak- ing an end run around the curtain at the end of each quarter. Be- cause the audience applauded so noisily. Emporia was fouled and the performer was given free tries for points which she made. Grace Marshall supported Lashanska and their teamwork was perfect. Dan Hirschler promoted the match He won!"
