WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1905 How would Mr. Stubbs' address have been received at the University of Chicago for instance? A freshman said the other day; "They must expect you to work all the time up here; they even sang 'Work for the night is coming' at the first chapel exercises." Coach Kennedy says he does not believe there are over two dozen freshmen in the University have not signified their intention of trying for the freshman football team. The freshman team idea is certainly a good one and,one that will advertise the University,for it will bring us into close touch with high schools all over the state. Some ten members of the staff were at the Kansan board meeting on Monday. They were the people who did good work last year and are willing to do more this year. Until work in the University gets well started and the Kansan gets moved into its new quarters, the news gathering will not be as thorough as it is desired it should be. Freshmen should remember that the "grind" does not get the most from his college course. The man who does not neglect his college course, yet pays attention to the social side of University life, mixes with his fellows, is an ardent classman, and takes a leading part in college and class politics, is the man for whom the University does the most. The student body was better pleased with the opening address than with any for several years past. It was not a literary production but a plain matter of fact speech from a man of affairs. His few remarks on the social evil in the University were right in line with Chancellor Strong's ideas. His praise of Roosevelt was that of a man who stands for the same purity in Kansas politics that Roosevelt does in national affairs. If it be true that the way to judge of a newspaper's standing is by the amount of advertising it carries, the Kansan's place is assured. The business men of Lawrence are showing their confidence in the present management of the Kansan as they have never before in a University paper. The subscription list is growing at the rate of a hundred a day, which isn't so slow, considering the difficulty some people had in getting the paper last year, which makes them cautious about subscribing this. Forty-five men were on McCook field in football suits, Monday afternoon. Of this number fifteen were old men, or now elegant to play under the rules. If Kansas has a winning team this year it will only be by hard incessant training for we have not the number of old players that we had last year. Captain Pooler and coach Kennedy realize this and are determined that nothing shall be left undone to make this year a successful one. Dr. Snow Hale, Hearty and Happy. Dr. Snow is the best pleased of any man in the faculty with his vacation. He announces that he got 30,000 good bugs during the summer three hundred of these were never found in the United States before and 250 are entirely new to the scientific world. E.G.Corwin '08, Eugene Smith of Topeka, Rollins Perkins of Lawrence, H.S., E.Crumb and E.S. Tucker were with him on the trip, which was mostly in Texas and Arizona. Alumnus Drowned. Herman Hulburt, of the class of '04, was drowned on July 17, last, while swimming in the Solomon river. He was buried at White City with the ceremonies of the Masonic Order of which he was a member. Mr. Hulburt had been very successful as a writer of life insurance. He expected to begin the study of law at Harvard this year. The regular mid-week meetings at the Y.M.C.A. house, 1317 Ohio Street, will commence again on Thursday evening at 6:45. All University men will be welcome and all Association members are urged to come. The length of the meeting is thirty minutes. Y. M. C. A. S. Lomax, ex-county superintendent of Montgomery County, enrolled in the school of law this week.
