Not Enough to
Learn Spanish
"The end sought in the study of
Spanish in the university is not the
mere memorizing of grammar rules
and definitions, but to learn to speak
the language and make practical use
of this grammar," explained Mr
Cuneo, instructor in Spanish, in a
short talk given at the second meet
ing of the Spanish club, Friday af
ternoon. Forty-five students and
members of the language department
attended the meeting which was in
charge of Mr. Alexis.
Mr. Cuneo, speaking in Spanish,
discussed Argentina, its location, riv
ers, resources, and cities. The talk
was concluded with a description of
the University of Argentina which
has about the same number of stu
dents as does the University of Ne
braska. It is made up of various col
leges like American universities, but
the University of Argentina has no
fraternities and sororities. Their
place is taken by professional so
cieties and clubs.
The meeting was opened with the
singing of songs in Spanish. Miss
Mary Giangrosso sang La Paloma,
playing her own accompaniment on
the ukelele. The last half hour of
the meeting was spent in playing
games invoh'ing conversation in

KANSAS HUMBLES
rv
iavhawks Rise to Heights to Take
14 to 7 Victory from the
Unbeaten Timers
In one of the biggest upsets of
the present Missouri VaJley football
season the Kansas Jayhawkers scored
14 points to the 7 gathered by Mis
souri to defeat their traditional ri
vals. It was the first game of the pre
sent season that the Missouri team
has lost.
Both of the KL. U. touchdowns fol
lowed long passes, one in the first
quarter and the winning one an the
last period. Missouri pushed over
their touchdown in the first five min
utes of play.
Missowi ana Nebraska Tien
Missouri's defeat at the bands of
Coach Cappon's men puts the Tigers
into a tie with Nebraska at the top
of the Valley teams. The only draw
back is that Missouri has another
Valley encounter in which to swell
her percentage, while the Valley sea
son if over as far as the Hu4tr are
concerned. Missouri meets Oklahoma
next week in their finale.
In wirning again this fall from
Coach Henry's suposedly premier
Valley team the Kansas team merely
repeated a game of a few seasons
back, when they had kicked a field
goal in the dying minutes of the
game to send a hitherto unbeaten
Tiger team home on the short end
of the score. Missouri has oever
beaten STansas in their new tadiuin,
sad the jinx proved effective aj-ain.
