SQUAD HAS HARD WORKOUT
Intensive Scrimmage Yesterday Points Team for Saturday's Game
Preceding this scrummage, the varsity regulars held a lengthy dummy scrummage against the freshmen in which both offensive and defensive Nebraska formations were used. Beach Dunn, Harris, and Manned composed the oft-shifted variety backfield which worked behind the regular line, with the exception of Ed. Phelps, who is filling the center position in the absence of Frank Watkins, who is nursing an injured knee. Watkins, however, is expected to be able to play by game time Saturday if needed.
Continuation of a week of intensive practice by the varsity squad in preparation for the game Saturday, featured a long, hard scrimmage yesterday between the varsity reserves and the freshmen teams.
Varsity Reserves Score
The varsity reserves scored one touchdown during the scrimmage to none for the fresh. Bob White, who has been going better and better as the season progresses, captured a yearling punt on his own 20 yard line, raced down the sideline to middle, then cut diagonally across the field behind machine-like interference to contribute the lone tally of the evening.
The fresh threatened seriously to score following a nice punt return which brought the ball to midfield. Line smashes by Johnny Warren and off tackle plunges by Antonio and Ginie from the varsity 5 yard line. A series of fouls in the backfield, however, cost them a touchdown and possession of the ball.
Dees Performs Well
In the lines, Dees, stocky tackle, was outstanding for the varity, while Wayman, Seigle, Minter, Crawford, and Duncan especially good for the first year men.
A light practice, composed largely of running signals will wind-up the week's practice for the varsity while the freshmen squand will be divided into two teams and will engage in a hard scrimmage today.
Joint Cabinets Hold Picnic
The Y.W.C.A. and Y.M.C.A. cabinets will hold their fall picnic this afternoon. Members of the two groups are to assemble at 4:30 in room 10 of the Memorial Union building.

City Commission Agrees to Change Tower Site
Property Owners Must Purchase Land of Original Location
The city commission agreed yesterday to change the site of the proposed water tower for West Hills if the interested citizens will purchase from the city the present location selected for the tower. The citizens' committee is to direct the citizens to guarding the matter not later than Monday. Rumors that the change has already been effected have proved to be unfounded.
Monday morning the city commission expects to be able to accept the low bid and to clear up other details in connection with the change, if it is approved through - Des Moines Steel City - Des Moines, Io, was the low bidder.
The new location would probably be some distance northwest of the former site, which was a lot adjacent to the Chi Omega house. If the contract is awarded Monday work will be started next week.
Commissioner J. L. Constant said that instead of the ornamental tank planned at first, one of planer design will be equipped with a substantial saving will be effected.
A federal grant for extension of water mains and replacements has been approved for Lawrence and work on this project will also get underway in the near future. A grant of 30 per cent, amounting to $4,800, has been authorized, and will be used in replacing old water mains in various parts of the city.
Husband and Shuey Speak
Dean G. C. Shaad of the School of Engineering and Architecture has obtained six reels of moving pictures illustrative of foreign industries. The pictures are from the company of New York and will be shown for the benefit of engineering students.
Agnes Husband, dean of women, and R. C. Siusue, 07, connected with the Bakelite corporation, spoke to the freshmen engineers this week. Dean Husband illustrated her talk on etiquette with plates and silverware, and Mr. Shuce illustrated the purposes of the bakelite molding process along with his explanation of that work

Lone Woman Speaker Wins From Eight Other Contestants; Field Is Second
Campus Problems Prize Is Awarded to Dorothy Bangs
Dorothy Bangs, c'36, the only woman entrant among the list of nine, was the unanimous choice of the judges for first place in the Ninth Annual Campus problems speaking contest, held last night in Philadelphia to announce the auspices of the department of speech.
Speaking on the subject, "Orientation Courses in Our Curriculum," Miss Bangs pointed out the dilemma of the average college student faced with the maze of specialized subjects as well as the necessity of covering material in a number of assigned fields regardless of his particular interests.
She offered as a solution to the problem presented the inclusion in University curricula of courses designed to give students a broad general knowledge and background on subjects foreign to his particular field of study rather than detailed information, and courses that would offer some measure of co-ordination among the various specialized studies.
Second place in the contest was awarded to Lyman Field, c'26, for his speech on "School Spirit to the Highest Bidder," in which he advocated the divorcing of athletics from activities more directly connected with educational pursuits.
Field Wins Second Place
Robert Edgar, c'35, won third place, speaking on "Our Bread and Butter Goal." He discussed the problem of the misplacement of emphasis in the goals of the average college student, declaring that major attention is too often directed toward acquiring knowledge that will be useful in understanding the consideration of the aspects of college education not directly pointed toward financial or economic success.

BILL TO ABOLISH ACTIVITIES FEE DIES IN SENATE
Delaney Measure Subject of Violent Debate by Kansas Legislators Yesterday Afternoon
HARLAN LEADS FIGHT
University Graduate Says 'Uniform Plan Is Serving Its Purpose'
Topeka, Nov. 10—(UP) The“compulsory” activity fee assessed in state educational institutions was kicked about the senate chamber violently yesterday, but Senator A. O. Delaney's bill to abolish the practice failed when stuarch defenders of the institutions, particularly of the University, supported Senator Hal E. Harlan's motion to strike out the enacting clause.
Disregarding admonition not to waste precious time on non-emergency matters, the members harangued at length. It took on something of the aspect of an old grads' reunion, several members testifying as to the days they put in waiting tables and cutting weeds on Mt. Oread's lofty acres.
Speakers for the bill were Delane, William Smith of Downe, E. G. Taggart of Wellington, Ralph B. Ralston of El Dorado and E. H. Benson, of Colby, Opponents were Harlan, 112, of Manhattan, Dallas Knapp of Coffeyville, Thale P. Skovgard of Greenicaf, John Frost of Blue Rapids, R. C. R. Russell of Great Bend, C. E. Friend of Lawrence, Guy C. Rexroad of Hutchinson, J. S. McDonald of Wyandotte and Simon Fishman of Tribune.
Opinions Differ on Fee
Enumerating the numerous activities which benefited from the fee, Harlan declared that such a uniform plan was good and was serving its purpose.
"The fee policy is absurd." Schoen reterted. "The institutions are not satisfied with appropriations; they resort to fee money to pay salaries. It has been done by a racket." Schoen did not say that activity fee funds were used to pay salaries.
Knapp protested that the Delancy bill denies students the right to decide how they shall spend their own money. He cited the wide range of college activities made accessible to students through imposed of the fee.
"We and our times are heaping treemendous responsibilities upon the youth of the land," the pro tem president of the senate warranted. "It is our task to make sure that we do not dictate what they shall not do." Knapp has a daughter in the University.
"How," inquired Skovgard of Delaney, "do you reconcile this bill with your proposal to appropriate $100,000 for the University football squad?"
The banter elicited an uproar, but not very pertinent answer.
"I am growing awfully tired of professional alumni belyaching about losses on the gridiron," Delaney counted.
Taggart assorted 600 students at K.U,
are unable to pay the fee.
"It is the compulsory feature of the fee that is objectionable," said he "if an undergraduate has to file a poverty affidavit to get exemption it is vicious."
Ralston declared it un-American for one group to place a hardship on those
"It is repugnant to me," Benedan Colly exclaimed, and challenged the leaders of the revolution.
Russell said he believed the fee plan was for economy.
"Friend branded the Delancey measure *the most useless bill yet* introduced in England."
Friend said of his seatmate: "To mention a state school to Jack Delancey and especially K.U. is like waving a red flag in the face of a 2-year-old bulb."
But Delany demurred. In closing the argument he declared that it was "not the mention of KU, but the way he is being managed that make me feel
"The sooner we get down to business with out state institutions the sooner the people of the state will have confidence in them."
He was weary, the Troy tester testified, of being asked "What is the matter with Kansas?" weary of seeing the University kicked around by every other state institution. He loves the University so much, he implored, that he desired to get to the bottom of things and ascertain what's ailing.
There was no record vote. Fewer than one-third of the members supplied.
