WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1905
As F. Dumont Smith says, "red hair will tell". In the recent Athletic election four of the successful candidates have hair of a reddish hue.
One of the junior Laws was observed washing his hands in the drinking fountain in the Law building the other day. Judge Green says several of the arts students have taken it for a cuspidor. It may be the latest thing in sanitary arrangement but we can't say that it looks very inviting, especially after these stories about it.
Geo. O. Foster is getting the newspaper fever. He has come to regard the weekly news bulletin with as much pride as Ed Howe does the Atchison Globe, and he is as jealous of being "scooped" in it as a cub reporter on his first assignment. He is even taking to fine writing. In his last issue he descants at some length on the "clean pure lives of the students coming from the wholesome homes of Kansas."
The severing of athletic relations between M. S. U. and Haskell because of the dirty ball played by the Indians in the recent game, is only a forewarning of the action of some other universities if the redskins persist in their present tactics. No fouler exhibition of football has been seen on McCook than that of the second Haskell team against the freshmen. Nor do we have any assurance that the coming game between the 'Varsity and Haskell will be any better. In two games so far this season one of the Hauser brothers has been put out for "slugging."
The Nebraska Athletic Board met last week and adopted the freshmen rule with variations. It decided that the freshmen already on the team should be permitted to play but no more should be allowed to qualify. It took this action because the freshmen rule was adopted by the Big Nine colleges last year after the last meeting of the Nebraska Athletic Board. Did
you ever hear a flimsier excuse? We wonder why their Athletic Board did not wait until the football season was over before it passed on the freshman rule? We doubt not that if some good freshmen should develop within the next few weeks, that the Cornhusker board will find a way to get them on the team without violating any of their rules of conduct.
Football Song.
THE GRIDIRON ON THE GREEN
THE GRIDIRON ON THE GREEN
TUNE! WEARING O' THE GREEN
O don't you hear the mighty cheer
That echoes o'er the plains?
'Tis Kansas vim for Kansas men
Who are made of brawn and brain.
They shout Rock Chalk, they shout
Jay Hawk,
The echoes swell and roll,
Whene'er is seen the pigskin's gleam
A whirling o'er the goal.
Chorus:
Then let the powers do what they will
One thing they cannot do;
Then let the powers do what they will
One thing they cannot do;
They cannot put our champions
down,
Nor vanquish old K. U.
So we'll bide our time, our banners
yet,
And colors shall be seen,
Wherever shines the chalky lines,
Off the gridiron on the green.
Come rally then all Kansas men,
And Kansas maidens too;
Profs., and teachers fill the bleachers,
Rooters staunch and true,
To lick our team they cannot dream
From Stanford far to Yale;
So banners flout and voices shout,
Our heroes shall prevail.
Chorus.

Graduate Magazine Out Today.
The first number of the Graduate Magazine appeared today. The Magazine is printed in the same form as formerly; but it is more of a news medium than ever before. This, the October number, contains the opening address of Hon. W. R. Stubbs, the Chancellor's address, and all the most important items of news that have occurred since the beginning of the fall term. The frontpiece is a pen drawing of W. R. Stubbs, by Albert Reid, the famous Kansas cartoonist. The Magazine now contains some advertising of the magazine variety. The University of Kansas Graduate Magazine has always been one of the best in the United States, and the present management of the magazine is adding to the reputation of the publication. 1,500 copies were printed this issue, and the circulation is growing daily. It is printed by K. U. students.
In Favor of Resumption.
Kirby, the great Illinois tackle of 199-'00, was a spectator of the game Saturday. Mr. Kirby is engaged in business at Lincoln, Nebraska, and says the sentiment of the University of Nebraska is in favor of a resumption of athletic relations with Kansas.
A number of the people from Oklahoma visited the shops Saturday; among them was Professor McPherson, director of the engineering shops at the University of Oklahoma.
