The student body shows the right spirit when it paid the expenses of the band at the game today. The freshman hygiene class donated over five dollars in less than five minutes, yesterday. ___
Pres. Schwegler's address in chapel, yesterday, was one of the best given this year. His pleading for a continuance of the "mud-pie" age and the "dream" period, showed a careful insight into human nature.
Colorado certainly has the true college spirit. Today at Lincoln, over three hundred of the silver and gold snupporters were present to help their team to victory. A trip of 700 miles for one game speaks well for our western opponents.
The editor of the Kansan left for Topeka on the first train this morning to be sure that his transportation would be all right. Any odd things noted in this issue can be attributed to the members of the board, each of whom recognized himself as editor-in-chief.
E. S. Jordan, in the current number of Collier's makes some sensational charges against Michigan and Chicago in the way of hiring football players. He says that Eckersall, of Chicago is given board, tuition and room for his services on the Chicago 'Varsity.
The proposition to form a tristate league submitted to the athletic board at its last meeting was, any way you consider it, a good motion. If it accomplishes what its author says he intended it should, we would be well satisfied. But if it does not do that, which seems very doubtful, it will at least open a neat diplomatic way to find out where we are.
Within the last two weeks a feeling has manifested itself in the sophomore and freshmen classes, that a class debate should be given this year. Nothing more appropriate could be established than an annual soph-fresh debate. Class spirit would be demonstrated as never
before on Mt. Oread, and Fraser Hall would witness the largest crowd ever gathered at an oratorical event.
We don't want to be misunderstood; the cartoon on the first page of the Kansan doesn't mean to leave the impression that the devil is in league with K.U.
In the recent tabulation by the Boston Transcript showing the percentage of increase in attendance of the colleges of the United States, Kansas University showed the remarkable increase of 27 per cent., or 5 per cent. greater than that of any other institution. This statement verifies the prophesy made by Chancellor Strong last year, that within the next quarter of a century, Kansas University would lead the institutions of the Middle West, if her state appropriations kept pace with the increased enrollment. We now have registered 1577 as compared with 1233 last year.
Graduate Club.
The Graduate School, of about 43 students has been organized into a club. Besides the social feature of the club,the subjects of general interest will be brought before the students and discussed.
Professor and Mrs. Blackmar gave the Graduate Club its first reception, Oct. 20, and a delightful entertainment was enjoyed. on Friday evening, Nov. 17, Dean Templin will entertain the club at his home, northeast of the University. Professor Templin will lead an informal discussion.
The sophomore medics took final examinations in neurology last week. With this they complete anatomy and will now take up physiology under Dr. Hyde.
