Cat in Danger
A black feline Topekan, intended mascot for the machinists mates in Frank Strong hall. is in danger of becoming the property of the anatomy class, if no one will offer his house as a refuge.
So far the kitten has been turned from the decks of the sailors' ship and the steps of Wager hall. Such an outcome of their plans was not predicted when a woman resident of Wager hall and the sailor, who was being entertained in the student's home in Topeka, decided to bring the kitten back to Lawrence. Plans had been worked out to take care of the feeding problem. Milk and cream would be smuggled to the kitten.
The kitten problem was simple until the two arrived in Lawrence. The officers told the mate, "No, no mascot." The housemother told the student, "No, no cat."

Sophomores in the School of Medicine have completed a survey of all the medical schools in the country to find that, according to the 35 replies received, only two schools have a program of physical conditioning comparable to the program offered to medical students here.
Questionnaires were sent to each of the 60 schools of medicine approved by the Journal of the American Medical Association.
