Kansas Out-Classed by Nebraska---Texas Today.
A MASS MEETING.
While our team was not in good condition for the Nebraska game last Saturday, their poor showing is due in a great measure to the fact that they were entirely out-classed. The Cornhuskers were in good condition and played all around our men. Our only score was due to a fluke. Buzzi secured the ball in a scrimmage and carried it sixty yards. This encouraged the 'Varsity and they made the remaining thirty yards and a touchdown by hard line bucks. However, in the interim and subsequently, Nebraska crossed K. U.'s goal line six times and five times kicked goal. However, our showing against the Cornhuskers was much better than was the Tigers, so cheer up Kansas. Get happy for the inevitable on Thanksgiving.
The Athletic board last week voted to furnish first team men who have played in a scheduled game, with sweaters. This will improve the appearance of our team on Thanksgiving day when they go on the field to twist the Tiger's tail. At the same meeting the board declared Morrison to be ineligible on account of back work. The loss of Morrison will weaken the team and it is hoped that he will be back in the game soon.
MASS MEETING.
The first mass meeting of the season was called to order by Prof. Green at 11:15, Friday. After the usual preliminary rooting by the Engineers, Pharmics and Laws and a tooting by the band, flights of oratory were indulged in by professors and students. Prof. Green commenced by explaining the purpose of the meeting and following him the voice of Prof. Frazier "smote the atmosphere, silent and alone." The orator of the day, Clyde Allphin, set forth in ringing words a defense of foot ball as played at K.U., and criticized some of the statements concerning foot ball, voiced by a faculty member recently. His speech created very great enthusiasm and plainly showed the position of the students as to foot ball. Guy Ward and Clyde Nichols were appointed to lead the rooting at the game Saturday. The meeting adjourned to a selection by the orchestra.

Professor Carruth on Football.
Professor W. H. Carruth has been discussing the present status of college sports and general athletics during his week of chapel service, at the University of Kansas and has uttered some pronounced opinions on the subject of football as at present conducted. He makes the point that all members of the University are entitled to an opinion as to the benefits or evils of a form of sport, and not solely those who are experts in that sport.

FRUITS, NUTS AND OYSTERS.
However, as the first amateur coach for the game at the University and the first president of the Athletic Association, Professor Carruth may claim somewhat more than a mere layman's value for his opinion.
Best Meals of any Restaurant in the City. 15 Mass St Lawrence, Kane
Professor Carruth holds that the state of Kansas intends the University to be an educational institution, and that physical training and sport, while having their legitimate sphere, are subordinate and incidental to the main purpose of the institution. Therefore he declares that any form of sport is condemned before the bar of public opinion in an educational institution when it becomes so specialized that men are encouraged to slight their proper educational opportunities in order to pursue it satisfactorily, and habitually do so; when it is so specialized that only a few can hope to attain high standing in it, while the majority are tempted thereby to neglect their own physical training and become more spectators; when the regulation methods of the sport involve an exceptional percentage of grave and fatal accidents; when the intensity of the desire to win and the excitement of the competition prove exceptional and invincible temptations to deceit and gambling.
715 Mass. St. Lawrence. Kan.
Believing that these conditions obtain with reference to football as at present conducted, Prof. Carruth holds that the time has come to abolish all the circumstances that lead to professionalism in this or any other game: the salaried coach, the training table, the games abroad, and furthermore radical changes in the methods of the game so as to reduce the danger of life and limb. By professionalism the professor does not mean simply playing for hire, but making a business for the time being, of the game. He thinks that all

A NEW FRATERNITY.
ALPHA TAU OMEGA.
Another Greek letter fraternity has been added to the number already represented at K. U. Since last year there have been rumors of a new organization but not until more recently did the matter assume a more definite form.
Gamma Nu Chapter Installed at Kansas University.
The installation was conducted by the Nebraska chapter, which was represented by Messrs. Wilson and Copeland. Mr. Wilson was on the Nebraska debating team of '99 and is known to many Kansas boys. After the installation ceremonies Thursday evening the boys entertained guests from other fraternities in the Eldridge House parlors. The time was pleasantly passed in getting acquainted with the new men and exchanging good wishes.
Alpha Tau was founded Sept. 11, 1865 at Richmond, Va., by Otis Glazebrook. The founder still lives and attends every congress of the fraternity. Associated with Mr. Glazebrook were Capt. Marshall and E. M. Ross, who has since been judge of the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Among the prominent members of the order is Mr. Bacheller the author of Eben Holden.
The fraternity was long largely southern but later it grew in the east and is now growing in the west. Nebraska, Colorado, Texas and California have flourishing chapters at Chicago and Cornell are among the best known. In all there are forty one active chapters and a membership of over 5000.

The members of the Gamma Nu chapter at K. U. are: Orville Brown, Leslie Gould, Walter Hall, George Nutting, Charley Brook, George Hood, Ernest Barkman, George Trombold, Fred Nichols, Walter Meek, David McFarland, Chester Jones.

Oratorical Squabble
Meeting Held to Discuss the Amending of Constitution with Reference to Voters.
THE LAWS BOLTED THE MEETING
At 1:15 O'clock the Laws in the Face of Overwhelming Defeat Took their Tops and Quit the Game.
Thursday noon the Oratorical Association met in the Chapel to consider the amending of Article V, Section 1 of the new constitution which reads, "Membership in this association shall be limited to students and faculty who pay the annual dues of twenty-five cents." The arts wanted to include the ladies as members without the fee while the laws wished to exclude them unless they paid the fee. It was a royal battle in which women were the center of interest—an earnest, laughable comedy in which love took no part but where the interest of the plot centered about the women.
For one hour and fifteen minutes the battle raged with the honors equally divided when the laws suddenly made a hasty retreat taking their top and marbles out of the game. They had been outnumbered during the whole time but having the chairman on their side succeeded in killing a great deal of valuable time. Professor Frazier the man who is occupying the divan of Elocution and Oratory presided. His knowledge of Roberts is lacking or his prejudice is strong. When the laws and their chairman left, the arts went on with the meeting and adopted the amendment. The Laws are to have a meeting Monday. It is not known whether they they will seek penitence and beg to come back into the fold or whether they will have a little association of their own. The fight was an excellent stimulus to the toppling oratorical structure.
