Old Home Town – 100 years ago

From the Lawrence Daily World for March 6, 1909: “The Kansas basketball team beat Nebraska 28-22 in Kansas City last night and plays two more games to decide the area championship. One victory will assure KU of the regional title. … The anti-cigarette law is in effect and now even the university chancellor must help enforce the law that says one has to be 21 to smoke. Minors will be carefully watched and arrests are sure to be made.”
