FOOT BALL SEASON OPENS NEXT FRIDAY.
ATHLETICS.
The sale of tickets for the foot ball season is unusually large. Students of the University are evidently beginning to realize that a large sale of season tickets means good foot ball.
As for the schedule it is the best we have ever had. Games were arranged with the State Normal, Ottawa and with Haskell because those teams gave promise of being the strongest teams in the state. From all reports there can be no doubt about their having very strong teams. The games with Texas University and with Vanderbilt University will bring as good teams to Lawrence as has ever been on McCook field. Those games alone will be worth the price of a season ticket.
Conditions are favorable for our developing one of the strongest
Let every student who can, buy a season sicket and buy it early. The $2.00 that he will pay for it can be justly figured as a necessary expense of college life.

teams in years. Many new men have appeared within the last week and the coach is highly elated at the showing made by some of them. Now we say again, the only way to make foot ball prosper at K. U. is to give it your earnest support. You owe it to your institution to bring it up to the athletic standand which other western universities maintain. The first big game will be with

LITERARY SOCIETIES.
The largest reception ever given in Library Hall took place Friday evening. Fully five hundred students and members of the faculty were the guests of the Y.W. and Y.M.C.A. Besides the usual social evening the guests were favored by with two selections by the Jayhawker quartet and two readings by Miss Gertrude Becker. The hall was beautifully decorated with University colors and goldenrods. Punch was served during the entire evening. During the latter part of the evening ice cream and wafers were served.
After the hustle and bustle of opening school the literary societies are quietly collecting their forces for organization and work of the coming season. Some little disturbance is caused by the ruling of the faculty, that all societies shall meet on the same evening in different rooms of Frazier.
The Cooley Club held its first meeting and program last evening. The subject for debate was "Resolved that an Attempt Upon the Life of the President of the United States is an Act of Treason." Public sentiment favored the affirmative. The club will meet as formerly in the east law room in Frazier Hall
The Snow will hold a business meeting tonight to perfect the organization for the year. The subject of selecting their room for the year will also be discussed. All desire the old hall, but in case this cannot be secured some will favor taking a room in Frazier, while others prefer taking a room down town.
The Burke and the X. Y. Z. clubs will meet for the first business session next week.

OBER'S LEADING CLOTHIERS AND FURNISHERS.
One of the first things that we noticed when we returned to our work this year was the unusually large number of changes in the personnel of the faculty. Not only do we miss some of the old familiar faces, but there are so many new professors in the classrooms that even the wise Sophomore is liable to make the mistake of asking one of his future teachers if he is going to take work on the hill this year.
OUR NEW PROFESSORS.
The greatest changes have occurred in the department of English. Professor Hopkins is away on leave of absence studying at Oxford. To take his place and relieve the extra load that has been piling up against the department for the past few years we have two new assistant professors. Mr. Fred Raymond, one of our own graduates, who, since taking his degree here, has spent several years at Columbia; and Miss Margaret Lynn, a graduof the University of Nebraska and a post-graduate of Chicago, occupy these two new positions. Since her graduation Miss Lynn has taught at Hastings College and at her Alma Mater.
There is also a new associate professor in mathematics, Mr. John Van der Vries, a Ph.D., of Clark University. Mr. Van der Vries comes to us highly recommended by some of the best mathematicians of the country. Aside from his high standing in the line of his chosen study our new instructor is said to be an athlete of no mean ability. It is with pleasure that the students welcome another addition to the too small number of our faculty members who take an active interest in college sports.
In the department of German Miss Alberta Corbin, another of our K. U. graduates has taken the position left vacant by the marriage of Miss Parrott to professor Barber. Miss Corbin is a Yale Ph. D. and comes to us with a broad experience as a teacher, having taught mathematics in the Lawrence High School, and since taking her degree at Yale, having been instructor in German in both the New Haven High School and the Topeka High School. During the past summer Miss Corbin has been studying abroad in "Der Vaterland."
Prof.Walter K. Palmer, who resigned during the summer to open an office in Kansas City, has been succeeded by Hugo Diemer, a graduate of the Ohio State University. Professor Diemer is a practical as well as a theoretical engineer, having been employed by the Bullock and Westinghouse Co., after the completion of hiscollege course. He has also been at the head of the mechanical engineering department of the agricultural and mechanical collegeof North Carolina
NO. 3.
Prof. Vickerey's place has been filled by Mr. Edgar Frazier, a graduate of the University of Chicago, who comes to us not as the professor of oratory but as professor of public speaking and debate. N.X.
SUMMER WORK.
Those who think all work at the University ceased with the last examination in May, should have visited Mt. Oread during the summer. The sun beat down until the campus was like a shortgrass prairie and the evergreens were scorched brown, but still forty or fifty faithful ones climbed the hill each day.
For all practical purposes it was a summer school. The tutors and a few professors made up a respectable faculty, and many who were either behind or desired advanced credits availed themselves of the opportunity.
Snow Hall was the busiest place. Arthur Harris had a class of ten in Botany and a number were also taking Entomology. Prof Engle had two German classes in the main building and Mr. Krause gave a full course in Physics at Blake Hall. Mr. McFarland did work in the Chemistry building and Mr. Blackman offered work in Zoology.
Apart from the regular undergraduate courses some original work was carried on by Mr C. E. Johnson who is working for his doctor's degree. He spent the summer here investigating the water lily. Mr Sellards carried on his work in Paleontology. He spent considerable time in collecting fossil insect wings which are to be found southeast of Lawrence. He was also for tunate enough to find a fossil insect body, a very rare specimen.
The heat was terrific but the work went merrily on. The students were punctual and did honest work. It seems almost advisable for the University to offer a regular summer course.
SOCIETY.
The Betas gave a hop Saturday evening at their house. Among the guests were Misses Warfield, Moore, Plumb, Dunham, Graham, Armsby, Lehman, Pugb, Lehnd, Earnhardt, Lombard and Mose Miller, Oatlie, and Messers, John Kane and Frank Parent, of Kansas City.
At their house Friday evening the Phi
Pals gave a very delightful dancing party
Paley gave a very delightful dancing party. Mrs J. B. Shearer entertained on Wednes day evening in honor of Miss Marie Morris, who has been visiting in Lawrence the past week. A hat trimming contest caused much amusement. The first prize was won by Miss Edith Johnson, who received a nobbly trimmed hat, while the booby prize was given to Vivian Springer. It was a paper hat of the Kappa colors. After this contest the guests played whist Mrs. Martin making the highest score, wan a pretty burn木 nut bowl, while she danced with her hair in points with a bunch of La France roses, Dainty refreshments were served during the evening.
The Sigma Chi's entertained for their new men in New Eldridge hall Monday evening,
