LAWRENCE, KAN. SAT. SEPT. 18. 1901.
THERE really is a foot-ball team at the University of Kansas! Do you know it? Can you name any of the men who will play this year? Are you aware of the fact that Quigley is not playing? And that Johnny Outland is bringing the men up in fine shape? Have you ever been near McCook's field when the team was practicing? Ask yourselves these things, Freshman, Soph, Junior, Senior, and then judge your own college patriotism. We have a foot-ball team. And it is doing fine work. Wake up and give the men some encouragement! Every student in the University owes his college something in the way of loyalty. If he can't show it by standing by the foot-ball team, it must be a pretty poor sort of loyalty. Any one ought to realize that the name and reputation of the University depend largely upon the success of its athletic ventures, and that every individual in the University can assist in their success by showing his colors, not only on the decisive day but all the time. There is one notable way just now in which your patriotism is to be shown. That is in buying of season tickets for the game. The chronic knockers of the college have searched out a flaw in the system of ticket-selling this year, and have made themselves conspicuous thus early in the game by asserting that two of the games included on the ticket are second team games. Two dollars, they declare, is too much to pay for only seven games, when two of those games are to be played by serrabs. Did you ever stop to figure up just what the season ticket saves you, counting fifty cents for the regular price of a game? The managers are giving you the two scrub games. Some people do very little good in this world except as knockers. To be sure, knockers serve their purpose, but it might possibly prove agreeable, both for the knocker, and the miscellaneous public, just for a change to try omitting the knocking for a while. If they would be satisfied to even choose a single line along which they preach, but this indiscriminateness is the fault most apparent in their criticisms. There are to be found people who knock on the WEEKLY, on the Athletics, on
the weather, the University buildings and the club in which they board. These knock on the fraternities, on the chapel exercises, and the Literary Societies. In fact, nothing is free from the dissatisfied comments of the chronic fault finder. Yet the University struggles along in its same old way and may continue to do so. And after all the team may live along, but you might try a little encouragement, and see how it works.
ATHLETICS is taking a firmer hold in the University every year. This year, like a reaction from the depression of last year, new life sprang forth in every branch of athletics. In spite of the pessimistic, the new rule regarding pure athletics is not proving itself forever a detriment to the school. You watch the foot ball team this year and see. With Outland at their back, and a lot of fine new men. See how they march to victory. With the Athletic Association on a more business-like basis than it has ever been before, there are prospects of opportunities greater than were possible last year. The possibilities ahead of our athletes this year are opening up a wide field of advertisement for the University. And there is no doubt the business manager of the Athletic Association is one who can make the most of every possibility. It might be a good plan for every student of the University to inform himself concerning the Athletic Association and its methods of working.
If some of the other counties that have a large K. U. attendance or alumni, would follow the example of Brown county it would be a very good thing. In this way the University would become more popular with the people of the State, thus securing direct benefit. Nothing can be of greater advantage to an institution than the hearty support of its members. The University is held in disrepute in some small locations because some student going there spread a bad report both by his actions and his words. Because one boy did not do well while here, should the whole college be censured? It ought not, but very frequently is. The forming of their associations over the State would do away with the bad impressions given by a few and show the people what our Alma Mater really does in the moulding of its men and women.
Lonj Session of the Board Transacts but Little Business of Moment.
The special session of the board of regents of the University of Kansas, called for the purpose of approving the bond and contract of Contractor Beunett, of the new museum building, was in session until midnight, but there was little business transacted at the meeting.
THE BOARD OF REGENTS.
The bond and contract of Mr Bennett were approved. Some repairs and changes were ordered in the gymnasium. The salary of the guide was raised from $200 to $350 a year. Sherman Walker was appointed
janitor for the chemistry building;
There was little discussion of the chancellorship question, because of lack of time, and no action whatever was taken in reference to it.
The following was adopted in regard to the retirement of Dr. F.H.
Snow from the chancellorship;
The first day of September, 1901. marked the close of II years service of Dr.F.H. Snow as chancellor of the University of Kansas a period of marked progress in the history of this institution not only in material things but in the growth and development of University spirit and methods.
Dr. Snow gave the best years of his life to this work and we feel that the success which the University has attained is largely due to his tireless energy, his devotion to duty, his wisdom and foresight and to his liberal and generous management of University affairs and the members of the board of regents desire to place on record their high appreciation or his services as chancellor and to express their pleasure and satisfaction in that they are still able to retain him in the service of the University as professor of natural history, the place which for so many years he honored and adorned.
On motion the following resolution was adopted;
In the untimley death of Regent Ernest L. Ackley, the University of Kansas lost one of its staunchest friends, the Board of Regents a wise and safe counsellor and the state of Kansas one of its best citizens.
Regent Ackley was stricken down in the prime of life, when by his industry intergrity and zeal he had won a large place in the hearts of the people of this state.His life was full of promise; he stood at threshold of a useful and honorable career. Active, intelligent and honest, a loyal friend and companion, he seemed destined to take a large and wholesome part in shaping the affairs of the state.
To the members of this board with whom he was so closely associated during the past year, his death comes as as a personal loss and we desire to place on record our appreciation of his many, Christian character, his loyalty to this institution, and his valuable and able services as a member of the board. L. D. L. September 4, 1991.
Golf.
Golf continues to gain in popularity at K. U. The club was very successful last year and this year gives promise of bringing more players and more interest in the game than ever before.
Owing to the rapid growth of the club last year and to the importance of the tournament held, it was found necessary to enlarge the grounds The extension as planned, was completed this summer. The links need only to be mowed to put them in first class condition.
Mr. Smethers, an engineering student has been employed as green keeper. He will be at work nearly every day keeping the grounds in good condition.
Much interest is evident among the golfers who are only waiting for more favorable weather before going to work. Several players of ability have entered school this year. The Seaver brothers of Ellsworth show some proficiency in the game. Mr. Dobson of Kansas City is also an experienced player. The club is in good financial condition and is looking forward to an unusually successful year.
