Chancellor Strong is much pleased with the action of the sorority girls in agreeing to make their spring parties less elaborate. He wishes that the students in the fraternities and sororites may see the excesses that the parties have gone to in some lines heretofore and remedy them, sanely and conservatively. At present there are only two men mentioned for captain of the football team next year, Charles Prentice Donald and Emile Brunner. Both have earned and both are worthy of the honor. Brunner has been behind the line this season, while Donald has always staid at his old position at tackle. Brunner is a senior in the college but has only played football three years, while Donald is a junior in the Engineering school. Brunner intends to return next year to take the Law course. Whether it is Captain Donald or Captain Brunner the supporters of the red and blue will be satisfied. On next Thursday will be the last chance to show your appreciation of the work of the football team of 1905. Captain Pooler and his men have battled faithful and true for the glory of the University of Kansas. They have made a record that a Jayhawker is not ashamed to speak of anywhere. Only one defeat is marked up against them and that has extenuating circumstances. It was at the hands of of a strong team, in a thin atmosphere, after a wearing trip of five hundred miles. That we would have had an "all victorious" team if the Colorado game had been played on McCook, no one denies. Kansas goes to Kansas City, Thursday with the assurance that she will win her 4th. successive victory over the supporters of the yellow and black. "The idea is to be on the ground" with pennants and canes when the event takes place. It will be grand to see Donald, Brunner and Myers break the Tiger's line into smitherns, and Oh! how Pooler will punt and run the ends. The pictures of the captains of the teams of '05 and of '06 are given on the front page of the Kansan today. Can you name the latter? Get A Costume for County Fair. Lots of people are planning to come in costume to County Fair as Indians, coons, country folks, babies, old maids, etc. Better rig up a costume for yourself while you are home Thanksgiving. Of course you don't have to dress in costume to have a good time at the Fair, only it would add to the fun. Well I declare! Wont you be there? Wont you attend the County Fair? Well, brother Bill, I guess I will! I'll be the first one up the hill. An edition by Paul Herzse's "Die Blinden," by Professors Carruth and Engel, has just been issued by Henry Holt and Company.

Faragher, gave an illustrated lecture on "Liquid Air" for the benefit of the medical students yesterday afternoon. He first explained the scientific principles upon which the process of liquefaction depends and liquefied a small quantity of air to illustrate his remarks. A number of experiments to illustrate the properties of this substance were then performed with liquid air already prepared and kept in vacuum jacket flasks. Earlier in the day the medical students were given an opportunity to watch the preparation of this liquid air. Professor Cady introduced an interesting feature into the lecture by liquefying some natural gas. The lecture room was well filled and in addition to the visiting students and faculty the address attracted a large number of local university students. A dance was given in I.O.O.F. Hall Saturday night by twelve girls students. Refreshments were served and all present had a delightful time. Miss May Millis of Leavenworth and Bron Pyle from Baldwin were the out of town guests. The books for "The American Citizen", the play to be presented by the Dramatic Club have arrived and work has begun in earnest. The cast has been chosen and the first act memorized. Work on the second act will be taken up at once. New members have been assigned parts. The play will be given at Bowersock's Opera House Dec. 20. There will be but one production as the Club is compelled to pay $50 royalty. Coming—"Hoop La” Chorus Wait for it! December 9. Save your pennies for Kappa candy. - December 9. Hear the Ladies' Band.
