THERE are a number of people who are very much discouraged over the foot ball prospects unnecessarily. Kansas will have a good foot ball team if the pessimist will only give it time. In the little game last week with Ottawa, we being beaten, those persons said: "Oh, just like last year!" "Why can't we have a good team?" We are going to have a good team, with Outland as coach, with our good material and with Alphin, Davidson and Hess the center of the never defeated eleven returned, we will play such good ball that, if we are beaten, the victors will have to work very hard for their laurels. The men who played against Ottawa were green. Eight of them had never seen a big game before, while our opponents had nine experienced men. "Cheer up!" "WHEN Greek meets Greek then comes the tug of war." When Barb meets Barb the outcome is not less. But when Greek and Barb meet Greek and Barb, there is certainly entertainment for the onlooker. Thus was the case on Tuesday when the Sigma Chi-Phi Delt-Barb crowd met the Beta-Barb organization at the election. For some time a few of the Barb leaders have considered it their religious duty to turn the Betas down, not because their men didn't fill their offices well, but because at some future time the Betas, becoming more appreciative of their own ability might want one of their Freshman in the Chancellor's chair, or some other place equally great. The Sigma Chi's having been turned down by these same leaders last spring, were now suitable for allies, and the Phi Delts were given an opportunity to begin taking part in college affairs. The Betas, however, did not see things from the same point of view as the Barb leaders and determined to make a ticket of their own. By yielding some things they secured a Barb contingent, and the whole force commenced work in earnest. Both parties solicited the aid of the girls to the extent of asking them to accept season tickets. The girls refused to become members of the Association, thus keeping out of the fight. The Sigma Chi-Phi Delt-Barb crowd had a "winning combination" and a good ticket, but the smoother and more systematic work of the Beta Barb organization was what won the day. PROFESSOR CARR RESIGNS. Mr. H. S. Carr, assistant professor of electrical engineering has resigned. Mr. Carr has been offered the position of chief engineer of an electric railway that is being built between Columbus and Cleveland, O. This railway will be the longest one of its kind known, being one hundred miles in length. It will also be of the latest type of electrical engineering. The offer is highly complimentary to Mr. Carr and he is to be congratulated. BI-CENTENNIAL OF YALE. Yale College celebrates her two hundredth anniversary this month. She will be assisted in this demonstration by the large colleges all over the world. Yale was founded at Saybrook, Conn., in October, 1701. In 1716 she removed to New Haven, and here, for nearly two centuries she has pursued her noble work of educating American citizens. The college was named for, Elihu Yale, a wealthy trader who made large donations to the young institution during its first strenuous struggles. Rev. Cotton Mather was one of the enthusiastic supporters of the school, and it was in answer to his written request that Elihu Yale made his contributions to the cause of learning. "Sir," wrote Cotton Mather, "though you have your felicities in your family, which I pray God to continue and multiply, yet certainly if what is forming at New Haven might wear the name of Yale College, it would be better than a name of sons and daughters." It was in 1718 that Mr. Yale sent to the college a collection of books for its library, a portrait of his sovereign, and a cargo of East Indian goods, which sold for £562 12s, or something less than three thousand dollars. Among the famous men who have graduated from Yale may be mentioned Jonathan Edwards, Eli Whitney, John C. Calhoun, Samuel F. B. Morse, Horace Bushnell and Nathan Hale. An article in the October Chaucaquan states that of all the colleges which will honor Yale at this time, there will be perhaps a half dozen in this country which can claim greater resources in property, greater numbers of students, or possibly broader educational advantages, but all of them will revere Yale as the mother college, and render her the praise due a pioneer in the field of liberal learning. This article also pronounces Yale the most national of all America's colleges. Not only has her student body been representative of nearly all states in the Union, but her graduates are more widely scattered, and carry her culture into every department of the Nation's industry. Among America's foremost colleges may be mentioned Columbia, Princeton, Amherst, Williams, Dartmouth, Cornell, California, Western Reserve and Tulane, all of whose first presidents were Yale graduates. CERCLE FRANCAIS. The Cercle Francais held its first meeting Tuesday afternoon in room —. Miss Hattie Mossler read very interesting letters from her French correspondent. A number of students in the French department have been exchanging letters during the past year with students in France who are learning English. Miss Le Duc entertained the Cercle the remaining time with accedotes of Brittainy. The Cercle will meet once a week throughout the year. W. C. Foley is employed in the Isabella Mine at Cripple Creek, Colo. He will return the second term to take his degree. ENGINEERING NOTES Floyd Bushly, C. E.'02, who has been employed as rodman on the Kansas City & Colorado Railroad, returned to school on Wednesday. The hydraulic laboratory in Fowler shops has been completed during the summer and is now ready for experimental work by the Senior civil engineers. Chas. G. Stolphe, of Topeka, registered in the Engineering School on Tuesday. He has been engaged in the physical laboratories of the Santa Fe at Topeka during the summer. Prof. H. S. Carr; of the Electrical Engineering department, has resigned his position, having left for Cleveland, O., on Tuesday evening, where he will engage in electrical railway work. Prof. Carr's departure will be a serious loss to the department and his place will be difficult to fill. However, the best wishes of the instructors and students go with him to his new field of labor. The Mining Engineering Department has had an increase of fully 30 per cent, in enrollment this fall. The laboratory in the west wing of the Chemistry has been thoroughly fitted up during the summer. Likewise the museum in the basement of Frazier Hall has been rearranged and classified. Among the old students who secured employment in their profession during the summere were: Burt Wolfe, in the Gold King, at Cripple Creek, Colo.; N. L. Stewart, at Idaho Springs, Colo.; Roland Feitchens at Telluride, colo., where he was chemist in a cyanide plant. GEO. W. JONES, A. M. M. D. Physician and Surgeon.
