KANSAS 12. COLORADO 11.
Kansas defeated Colorado today by a score of 12 to 11. Before a large and enthusiastic erowd the boys of the crimson and blue defeated the Colorado tigers in a hard fought battle.
Although there were many fumbles and some poor playing on both sides, our boys put up a good, clean game and won by hard line bucking.
The game was clean and well fought. Our boys would have shut out their opponents entirely but the lightness of the air affected the men in line.
In the first half K. U. scored a touch down and goal. Colorado scored on a fluke. The second half was fiercely contested on both sides each team scoring 6.
The team our boys fought today beat Denver University by a score of 30 to 0. Nebraska only beat Denver by 10 to 0 and reports say that that small margin was only won by the hardest work. Our team beating Colorado University gives as an edge on Nebraska by about 3 to 1.
Our special report failed to give Colorado's line up, ours was as follows:
Michaelson center, Donald left guard, Heinzman right guard, Allen left tackle, Rice right tackle, Bruner left end, Hicks right end, Pooler quarter, Ise and Cooke halves, Brumage full back. Woodford, Wilson, Griggs, Chappell, Ackerman, Avery, Plank, Foster, Naismith and "Uncle Jimmy" accompanied the team. As we go to press the boys are parading the streets. The band is out and the students are gathering boxes for a big bon fire. Kansas feels justly proud of four straight victories and a total score of 90 to 11

OTHER GAMES.
The tennis tournament was held today on the Adams street court to select a team to represent K. U. against Missouri at Columbia on Monday. In doubles, Feitshans and Clifford defeated Draper and Gentry in straight sets. Clifford defeated Gentry and Feitshans defeated Draper in singles. Feitshans and Clifford leave tomorrow for Columbia.
The State University Oratorical Association is rapidly moving toward a permanent organization. Invitations will be sent out immediately to each of the universities of the Mississippi valley to send a representative to the meeting of the delegates in St. Louis. This meeting will be called for the 9th of November at the Southern Hotel. There is a desire, on the part of these universities, to have this first delegation composed of members chosen from the faculty of each institution. It is believed that this will insure a more satisfactory organization than might a delegation made up of students. Invitations have recently been sent to the Universities of Tennessee and Arkansas.
The faculty members on the Debating Council have been appointed by Chancellor Strong. They are Professors Burdick, Lawrence and Frazier. At the last meeting of the Council, it was decided to urge Nebraska and Colorado to submit the questions for the annual debate. Since both of these debates will be held away from home, the only debating contest which the students will have the opportunity of hearing this year, will be the contest with Missouri. While Kansas has lost two of her debaters—Woods and Earlart—all the other debaters on the university teams last year are here, and in addition there are others who are proving themselves quite as strong in debate as some of the older men. Kansas may therefore be expected to make as good or better showing than she did last year.
DRAMATICS
The University Dramatic Club under the direction of Prot. Frazier has begun regular rehearsal for the production of "Alabama." The large number of applicants for membership in the club this year has made the choice of material somewhat difficult. The constitution of the club limits its membership to twenty-five, consequently some very promising dramatic ability has been kept out merely because the maximum membership had been reached. The old members of the club are giving way to the new and as a result there will be but one or two of the old members in the cast. The principal parts of the play, however, will be understudied by Mr. Seyster, Mr. Peters, Miss Morrison and Miss Plumb. This will mean that new members who find it impossible to do the part will be relieved by the understudy. The play this year will be given before the Christmas holiday instead of after it as in the past.
The state convention of the Young Woman's Christian Association, which meets in Baldwin this week, is being attended by a large delegation from the local organization.
PROFESSOR KELSEY TO BE HERE.
Professor Kelsey, of the University of Michigan will spend two days at the University the first week of November, probably Thursday and Friday, the 5th and 6th. He will, while here, give three lectures on Roman Archaeology, Thursday and Friday evenings on Recent Discoveries at Pompeii and in the Roman Forum, and Friday afternoon on the House of the Vettii at Pompeii as illustrating the art of painting in antiquity and Roman private life. The lectures will be illustrated by stereoptician slides and will be open to all free of charge. Professor Kelsey's position as head of the latin department at the University of Michigan and secretary of the Archaeological Institute of America guarantee an interesting and profitable course of lectures.
LEAGUE OF KANSAS BOYS.
The following clipped from a Spokane paper shows something of how genuine Kansas spirit takes hold of Kansas men who spend three or four years at the State University:
"Graduates of the Kansas State University living in Spokane met at the office of the Anchor Fence Company last evening and organized a club. The name of the new organized organization is the Kansas University Club and the purpose announced is to further the interest of the graduates or undergraduates of the Kansas University while living in Spokane.
The club at present consists only of university men, but membership will be open to almost any Kansan, names being voted upon by the members. However it is announced that Carrie Nation is strictly barred. At the meeting last evening committees were appointed to formulate the constitution and by-laws. The club will meet July 31 at the office of J E. Griffith, in the Jamison block, to get upon new members
Officials elected at the meeting last evening were: C. R. Briggs, president; John T. Little, jr., vice president; J. E. Griffith, secretary and treasurer; Geo. M. Vinton, sergeant at arms.

NEWS ITEMS.
The interfaternity football games will not be played this fall as usual. The reason for this action is that the necessary practice takes too much time from studies.
At the head of his article on State Universities in the October number of Scribner's W. S. Harwood has placed a cut of one of the latest views of the University. All the buildings are included except Medic Hall, which is behind Fraser Hall, and North College, which is too far north to be seen.
An article in the Kansas City Times concerning the increased attendance at the University of Kansas gives some interesting statistics. The enrollment up to October 9 is 1235. At the same time last year it was 1101. The State Normal last year had several hundred more students than the University but this year its enrollment is not so large as that of the University. There are enrolled in the arts school 553 of whom 313 are girls and 240 are boys. In the senior class, there are 50 girls and 44 boys. There are more than three girls to every boy in the junior class. The sophomores have 62 girls and 49 boys, while the freshmen class has 96 girls and 91 boys. The school of engineering has an enrollment now of 282 students; last year it had 184.
The University of Missouri has a new scoring board on her athletic field. The following diagram will give an idea of the board:
NO. OF
DOWNS YARDS
TO GAIN SCORE
Kansas ... 1 5 75
Missouri ... 0
From this diagram it can be easily seen that Kansas has the ball, first down five yards to gain, and that the score is 75 to 0. Our athletic association ought to put a similar board on McCook field.
On account of the noise made in the gymnasium by the freshman class in physical training Monday afternoon, the class in Geology, which meets in the room above, was dismissed.
