THE SPHINX AND THE FORD Said the Sphinx to the tourists As they passed him in the sand, What a funny kind of auto To be traveling in this land. But the tourists didn ' t worry For they were traveling in a Ford, And they needn ' t fear or worry About their room or board; They slept out in the open And they ate out of tin cans, For they were only tourists Traveling in the foreign lands. — Gertrude Gill.

A. C. JUNIOR COLLEGE MAGAZINE Copyright 192 Han Schaflncs Marx When Our Name Is On the Box No question about the ' class ' of that, most any man will say when he sees our name on the box. We earned that reputation by SiCilupuflous care — about values, about style. And every season we try to do every one of those things better. We ' re pretty sure we ' ve broken all previous records this spring. Cevfeft CITV. KAN ly, Where ' s Pink ' ! He ' s gone, Mamma! Where is he? Why, son, surely you don ' t want him for a pet now. He ' s so big and awk ward. He ' s mine. I want him. Where is he, Mamma? The little figure straighten- ed as Billy valiantly refuted the slander- ous attack on his pet. But, Billy, he was so big and dirty. Euddy sold him with the others. He didn ' t iknow you still wanted him for a pet. Daddy — sold him — but— -he — he — was mine! How could he? I want Pinky now. The child ' s face was pale and his lips trembled, but he did not cry. He gave him to me and now he ' s so-old him. There, there, Daddy didn ' t know you cared so much. Daddy gave him to me! Pinky was rmine — mine — . Billy stopped suddenly, whirled on his heel and ran back to the empty pen — -the pen that had been Pinky ' s home. Later, when he returned his face was streaked and grimy, but composed. The father who faced Billy across the table that night could have seen — had he taken the trouble to look — that his son ' s eyes were no longer implicitly trustful, blindly worshipful, that hero worship was replaced by watchful criti- cism, that the priceless confidence of the ichild was gone. The first seeds of cyn- licism were planted, for Billy had receiv- ed his first lesson in selfishness. The veneer was indeed removed and the true clay idol exposed. The child ' s mind was filled with mor- bid thoughts, rendered more bitter for their repression. Why, Dad gobbled what he gave me, thought Billy, Exact- ly like Pinky bolted cabbage hearts. But the father noticed nothing and Billy held his peace, though he did not forget. In Lit and Comp I ' ve striven hard! To win two C ' s upon my card, But now, in spite of all I do, I fear I ' ve met my Waterloo. Tomorrow ' s task, an eight verse rhyme — A monthly would scarcely give me time; I ' ll give it up; I ' m not a poet. I ' ll turn this in that you may know it. — ' Clyde Harris 4. „ „ + The grey sky is close to the grey-green ocean, whose level is broken by little, white capped waves. Now and then a larger wave hurries them toward the jutting, moss-brown rocks and the bleached sand beyond. Out in deep water, a white speck of a sail boat rises and falls. Over all is a film of thick, grey fog.

10 A. C. JUNIOR COLLEGE MAGAZINE BASKET BALL AT A. C. JUNIOR COLLEGE The basket ball season added another scalp to the fast growing collection of A. C. J. C. The first three games did not look very favorable, but the boys proved that a bad start means a good finish. The first game of the season was with the Alva Rangers a four year college, and they certainly were rangers. The tall lads from Oklahoma took the home team to a 44 to 37 drubbing. However, our defeat may be attributed to the fact that the boys had not played together long enough, and that Coach Stark changed the players around in an effort to find the most effective line up. Hous- ton made seven points, Vernon Smith seven, McMichael two, Weller fourteen, Hardy five, and Raymond Smith two. All of the players found the basket for at least one counter, which showed that we had a well balanced team and no out- standing stars. Our next game was with the All Stars, made up of former high school and col- lege players, such as Kroenert, Chapman, Spohn, Bratches, Smith Marsh, Vogel, and Gilbreatih. This high powered ag- gregation only defeated our boys 31 to 24. The first day of the year, George Gardner brought his McPherson College team down for a practice game. Lester Chapman, an Arkansas City boy made fourteen of his team ' s 41 points while Houston made fourteen of Arkansas City ' s 32 points. This was but another practice game, and the boys were hitting their stride and getting into shape for the league games which started the next week. Our first league game was with Par- sons, last year ' s champions. Everybody anxiously awaited the results of this game as an indication of our relative strength with the other junior college teams. A. C. easily won, the score being 33 to 20, with Weller, Houston and Hardy furnishing the majority of the points. From then on our team marched straight toward the championship. Independence was our next victim on January 13. The date must have had something to do with the visitors, as we easily defeated them 49 to 15. Next week the team invaded foreign territory. Independence and Coffeyville, easily winning both games, the score of the Independence game being 46 to 25 and of the Coffeyville game 35 to 11. In our next game with St. John ' s Re- serves, we easily doubled the score, 36 to 1 8. Chilocco was our next victim, the In- dians being beaten 34 to 13. Four days later Coffeyville journeyed .$,,, „ „„ ,. n ... m, ■ „ .. ,.„ ., .. , + STYLE Headquarters for Young Men FLEESON ' S «£ , ... mi »n in. .... ».. ..» «.. in .... in. ..n 1.4. 4 + CONSIDER THE MOTH And Cleanse Your Winter Garments BEFORE STORING Telephone 253 ABLESON ' S . .„ . „„ ,
