RICH MAN IS ATTENDNG CORNELL'S FARMING SCHOOL
Pittsburg.—James I. Buchan, President of the Pittsburg Trust Company payer of the Pittsburg Board of Public Education and prominently identified with local business enterprises, is to be a farmer. He has entered into an agreement with the school of Farming and is one of the most diligent pupils there, his teachers say.
To acquire knowledge of how to run a farm Buchanan goes to Ithaca every week and remains there for three days, attending classes and lectures. He is treated exactly like his classmates, most of whom are young enlistees. His instructors do not hesitate to rebude him whenever he blunders.
Not long ago Buchanan was unavoidably detained when he should have gone home.
accounty detained here when he should have been on his way to school. Result, he missed one of the lectures. Next day he was called up and asked to explain why he had played hookey. The truant claiming a pressing business engagement. That excuse was rejected as insufficient. Then he modestly admitted that he had to speak before the Chamber of Commerce.

JUDGES SAY WOMEN
SHOULD NOT VOTE
Ashland Wins High Schoo Debate by Unanimous Decision-Arguments Good
By a unanimous decision, the judges in the final debate of the Kansas debating league last night gave the winning place to the Ashland team which supported the negative of the Woman's Suffrage question.
According to the rules of the league, the silver loving cup offered by the University now becomes the permanent possession of the Ashland high school, as they have won three consecutive championships. A banner, also offered by the University, becomes the property of the Ashland speakers.
Two girls and one boy, Alberta Stephenson, Verna Miller, and Marcellus Stockton of Burlington supported the affirmative of the proposition that women in Kansas should be allowed to vote, and although the judges decided unanimously for the negative, everyone in the hall admired the affirmative argument and were convinced that they, too, had presented an excellent case. Daisy Taylor, Roy Cassity, and Francis Osborne, of Ashland were on the winning team.
VOTING A RIGHT OR WRONG PRIVILEGE?
Alberta Stevenson, who opened the affirmative argument, after telling something of the history of the question, stated that men had assumed the powers of government and had established an autocracy which has usurped its power and which was taxing the women of the country without giving them representation in that government. She argued that the ballot is the only sufficient protection for any class and maintained that the conservative home element in politics would be a power for good.
The first negative speaker, Daisy Taylor, stated the position of their side, that suffrage is not an inherent right, but a duty or privilege given by the state and that expediency is the only question to be decided when the Kansas amendment is being considered. She stated that democracy and representation gives a voice in government and represents the vote and hold of the women now exercise a big power without the ballot. The point that women with the ballot would be a privileged class, one with a vote but without the other duties of men toward the state, was given by this contestant.

NO ADEQUATE REPRESENTATION Verna Miller continued the Burlington position by showing that the ballot is used successfully when the privilege is given to women, that

Luck.
After Ward had gone down in the tenth, shortstop to pitcher, Deichman playing in Wilson's field singled, and Buzick who was gardening in right was there with the three-bagger that was needed to win the game. But the scoring did not stop there. Norris who had to this time pitched a great game for the College made a grand ascension. A bad error by him allowed Buzick to score. Binkleman who had been resting on the bench now was called on for a pinch hit and responded nobly. Another error by the pitcher brought him around from second.
Emporia in the first opened the scoring when Walker, some pitcher, fumbled a hot grounder and allowed a runner to roost on first. He stole and came in on a hit. The other College scores were earned by hits.
The Kansas scores in the fifth came as the result of a mixture of errors and hits.

A. employment bureau has been organized. The bureau finds work for many men during the year and often had difficulty in securing enough workers to supply the demand.
The average cost to a student in the University of Kansas for one academic year should be less than $250. A student should be able to live comfortable month and this would count up to $225 for the nine months of class work.
Many students are making their own way entirely and even have a respectable bank account at the end of the year.
All kinds of work are open to the in-
dustrial man. There are lawns to be en-
prepared in shape, snow must be shovelled
'n winter, furnace fires must be made.

SOPH HOP BETTER THAN FORMER PROMS
Informality Plesaeed Every body Last Night—Farce and Music Good
When the University Council took action some time ago and issued an edict that never again should there be be a Sophomore Prom—with accent on the Prom—they did something that will go a long ways toward making the annual sophomore party one of the most delightful events of the year.
Last night the first annual Soph-more Hop was given in Robinson Gymnasium and the decided informality of the occasion as contrasted with the formality that it always incident to a Prom, brought joy to the hearts of the five hundred people who trumped up the "hill" on a warm summer evening to witness the force and to dance.
"A College Mixup" was the farce offering by the sopheromones and it was by far the most clever little skirt that has been presented to a University audience for some time. The Sowers twins were the authors of the book of the play and they succeeded in injecting their wit and humor into the situations were well planned. The faerce was a mistaken identity affair in which the audience itself for the most part was fooled as to which one of the Sowers twins was on the stage.
Arvid Frank wrote four songs for the play and the lyrics were written by Earl Moore. "Isn't He a Hand-some Man?" was a tuneful song in which Lucele Smith and Harvey Phillips did some clever acting. Harvey Heller off some black face stuff that was not at all tiresome.
The farce was under the direction of Clarence Sowers and the musical numbers were conducted by Aridv Frank and Earl Moore. The programs for the farce were furnished by the Merchants' Association.
After the farce, the audience ad journed to the main floor of the gym for dancing. The grand marche was led by Ralph Yoeman, president of the class, and Amarynthia Smith. Programs were given out by Adine Hall and Charles Strickland and Lucile Smith and Arthur Perry. Refreshments in the music quartette tables. Music in in the dining room was furnished through the courtesy of "Swede" Wilson and Eurene Thomas.
Kenneth Lythe, and Wendall Lyman of Topeka, are spending the week-end at the Phi Delt house.
Arvid Frank was the manager of the Hop.
Hall's orchestra of Topeka furnished the music for the twenty dances which were finished at the stroke of midnight, were closing by the University Council.
JAYHAWKERS 63
CORNHUSKERS 42
Hamilton's Athletes Won Easily From the Men of Stiehm
THE DOPE WAS BADLY UPSET
Marks Set in The Field Events Were Poor—Best Time Made in Half Mile
In the earlier events of the meet the score was close but as the end drew near Kansas slowly forged ahead and the meet was won before the broad jump or the relay had been decided.
By scoring 63% points while the Cornhusker athletes were collecting 42% Coach Hamilton's track team rmped home with the victory in the dual meet held on McCook field yesterday afternoon.
None of the performances were brilliant, but the track events were run off in good time considering the high wind. The weight events were won at distances that would be poor if made by high school students. McGowan set the best pace of the meet when he took the half mile in 2:04 1-5. The time made by Murray in the two mile was also good for that distance.
Dope was badly upset in a number of events.
The hundred yard dash, though placed on the doubtful list had been
CAPTAIN FRENCH
generally, conceded to Nebraska;
May, the cornbasket star having a record of 9-4-5 in that event. Here came the first upset, as Kansas carried away two places in 10-2-5.
PARRERSON SPINRED TOO SOON
PARKERSON SPRINED TOO SOON
The mile run went to Anderson of
Nebraska but Patterson took an
easy second, and might have placed
in first had he saved his sprint a little
longer.
Hazen won the high hurdles and Russell of Nebraska finished second. He was disqualified, however, for knocking down too many hurdles and no points were awarded for second place.
In the 440 dope again suffered. Kansas figured on one place but Black and Smith were unable to keep the fast pace they set early in the race and the Nebraska men won easily.
The 220 dash went to Davis of Kansas, with Christmas second in 231-5.
HAZEN SLOWED DOWN AND LOST The saddest event of the meet, from the Kansas standpoint, was the low hurdles. Hazen, having a comfortable lead, decided that he had better save himself a little for the high jump. He slowed down on the last two hurdles and couldn't speed
up enough to get into the race again.
