This would be a serious blow to University athletics and one that would be keenly felt. Every student in the school looks upon "Uncle Jimmy" more as a father than as a dean. Athletes for years have learned to look upon Dean Green as their warmest and most confiding friend. Athletic men of the present day are always ready to swear by "Uncle Jimmy." The students, faculty and every friend of the University who knows anything about athletics here would about as soon see us without a football team as without the judicious guidance of the man who has been president of the Association so long. The class elections are close at hand. There may be some hot fighting and there may be some diplomatic compromises. One thing is very sure and that is that no one faction whether bearing a cross of political purity or a Satanic spear will get all of the political pie. Every one in K. U. knows by this time that politics lead one a merry life up on the hill and in casting your vote, as well as your lot, for future time while a student here, some careful meditation should be indulged in. You will want to be in the band wagon Of all the exchanges that the Kansan gets there is not one where the advertising columns seem patronized so little. Insist that your friends buy their goods of our advertisers and in that way we can run a better paper, have some extra editions, some telegraphic reports and get a telephone on McCook field besides increase the size of our paper. K.U. has as loyal a class of students as any school anywhere and it is appreciated by all concerned but if you will consult our advertisers when wanting to purchase you will find them the very best people on Massachusetts Srteet. We know you all are willing to support these but people will forget and we continue mentioning it as a reminder. Read the list of advertisers and paste it in your hat. The Baker Orange appeared last week for the first time this year and at once began talking about the good old Methodist hand shake at Baker. The only handshake we ever saw at Baker was when the hand was doubled up and a little coloring was in the eye, The very best example of a college paper that comes to our table is the Minnesota Daily. It is a good clean sheet and the news is always up-to-date, without a lot of editorial opinions in the news columns. There was a mistake in our last issue.
