Keough Explains Calendar
"Kansas Municipalities" Writer Wants New Scheme
Advection of the thirteenth month calendar was set forth in the November issue of "Kansas Municipalities" to promote a personal representative of George Eastman of the Eastern Koisk Co. The thirteen month calendar will have three months of twenty-eight days each and ten weeks of business success by a number of business concerns, which have found that accuracy, convenience and economy have been increased by the use of the new calendar system for production, sales, wages, etc.
At the present time, the work of acquaining public sentiment in the United States on the subject of reclamation is being undertaken by the national committee or calendar simplification, which was or organized at Washington, D. C., on July 9, 1928. This committee was formed by members of the Secretary of the League of Nations asking the United States to form a committee for that purpose. Secretary of State Kellogg accordingly formed a permanent and the committee was formed.
The thirteenth month calendar will have many advantages over the present system. Budgetary control will be facilitated by an annual number of checks on expenses that will occur always on the same day of the week; elections and registrations will be held on the same date each year as well as the same day of the week. Costly errors will be avoided in the conduct of public business.

Educator and Scientist Hold Conflicting Views, Brewster Saves in Talk
Haste of Learning by Schedul Defeats Research Efforts, Instructor Holds
"The aims of the educator and the scientist are directly opposed to each other," said Dr. Benson, a department of chemistry when addressing the Kappa Chapter of Phi Delta Kappa on "The Conflict between the Organizations" and "the Doctor." The address was given at the bi-weekly meeting of the organizations on Friday, April 25, in the Memorial Union Building.
"The scientist, on the other hand, considers the matter of teaching as of secondary importance. He is not concerned with developing a technical curriculum in final results. His function is one of furthering research studies. The scientist often faces the difficulty of overcoming inadequate preparation of the student coming to him from public schools." Doctor Brewer declared.
"The aim of the educator," Doctor Brewer said, "is to pass children of school age along as rapidly as possible. We try to teach them in the school. The educator has a certain standard to maintain, and a schedule to live up to, and this he attempts to do whether or not the child acquires adequate group of the subject matter.
"The blame, however, cannot be placed entirely on either the educator or the scientist, but must be placed at the door of both." Doctor Brews suggests that educators work for a better understanding and the establishment of a common ground between them. "Some basic of understanding must be reached before the educator and the scientific together in harmony of achievement."

leaders for the short session of con-
ference.
Farm relief, tariff revision, Boulder dam, naval enclaves, the anti-war treaty and a dozen appropriation bills are being listed on the judged adjoining lists.
Farm relief: A revised McNary-Hunger bill without the equification fee is to be introduced in the Senate, where it will be getting to work on a group of individual bills to provide co-operative marketing facilities and a federal farm board to aid in disposing of these bills when he will be given priority.
The situation concerning each of these subjects is outlined by the congressional authorities as follows:
Boulder state: The Johnson bill now the unfinished business in the Senate, is expected to pass early in the fall. It would be Republican, California, is ill, however and may permit the Senate to consider at the outset the naval cruisers
Tartif. An effort will be made to have the House ways and means committee start to form a group, primarily with eastern textile and farm products. Few believe this will be be mind before the short session adjourns March 18.
Naval officers). The House bill will provide 15 new 10,000-ton armored vehicles but get no bill and of doffman is unable to press his mandate, the naval bill may be passed before Christmas. These strong opposition to the bill will continue.
Anti-war treaty) This treaty will be submitted by the state department at the start of the session and considered by the foreign relations committee. 4 maintain Berch expedia There is no opposition so far.
Murray Shields. Efloir will be made to review the old Madison bill accepting the bid of the American Cynomid Company, but such a more will be fought hard by Senator Noren of New Brunswick, who is operating at the government operation bill that gave government operation bills is a two-deep President Cobbler's pocket veto of it.
**Appealations:** Some appropriate bills are being prepared by House Finance Committee to accommodate an soon to be congreg meeting. Leaders will go to get all appealments bills out of the way early in no time before the close of the short session.
San Francisco, Nov. 23. —(UP)
Senator Harriam Johnson will not surrender precedence of his Boulder dam bill, which he said today. Washington dispatches he might make the naval bill precedence because of his illness.

Interest Is High on Eve of Annual M. U.-K. U. Clash
Dope Favors Missourians
But Tiger Injuries
Tend to Even
Chances
By Clarence M. Brown
All is in readiness for the 38th annual middle western football classic to be staged in the great Memorial Stadium on Friday noon. Two rival elevens and about 39,000 followers await the hour of 2 p.m., which will mark the opening whistle of one of the great events of middle west—the Kansas-Missouri game.
Crimson and blue backers were hop-
ping and praying for a dry field, a Karnataka
city in eastern India. The same breath as every indication pointed to the prospect to an ideal
Hobo Day Generates Pep
It was Hobo day, and all the delegates assembled for the annual conference. It was a tremendous prince, and with the one thought in mind of each hobo, "what'll we do BEAT MIZZOU?". Rallies happened so fast and at such intermittent periods that the team delegates delegates to attend all of the them. However, the team was given a great send-off at 8 a.m., and a second general gathering later in the morning what to expect tomorrow at Columbia.
Past differences were forgotten as the students pointed with pride at their team of fighting Jayhawkers, and their team of no-ultimate twisting of his tail, as was hoped. Coaches Hargiss and Waldorf were there, each packing a personal grudge towards tomorrow's varsity team, the 34 members of the varsity squad.
Keen Gaital Expressed
Harry M. Wong, the rival eleven at Emporia, before they went to their present schools, so will new hostilities again. Walford, K. U. line coach, has been coaching the team for seven years and he wants to keep his brother, John Walford, M. U. fullback, from hurting too many good passes. That is that friendships and family ties are severed for seven years. He juggles sixty minutes with a pigskin.
Both schools completed drill for the conflict yesterday, and will spend the night in inclusion from the crowded campus at Booneville until shortly before game time tomorrow, while the Missouri eleven will spend the night at Mexico, Mo. I live in limbering exertion. Kemper Academy field is reported.
Coach Hurgis sent his charges through offensive and defensive practice with the freshmen team yesterday. After a long stretch, he plays the freshmen souppt to puzzle the Jayhawkers with their fake stunts, but there was usually a back pass in the warm-up. The pass or a lineman spilling the play before it could be successfully executed. A full strength variety role would have been possible of physical fitness as a whole, the Jayhawkers will be in tip top shape, Missouri, however, is still maintaining
Reeve, Tiger backfield star is permanently out for the season. Rosenstein, Jr. is not in the injured in the New York university game, but will probably getGame starting. Reeves, Willner, tackle, is reported to be of the list of players Saturday, and will play Tuesday.
Injuries Hurt Tigers
In view of the injuries the Jay hawkers should have an edge on the dope sheet, but the Tigers, however, have one advantage. Kansas and Kansas is fifth. Kansas beat the Aggress, but Missouri did too. Kansas lost to Nebraska so did Missouri. Washington beat them 28 to 19, after the Hawks had run over three touchdowns against them. That victory gives the Hawks a big lead on Missouri and they didn't on Kansas. So take your choice, remember that this is one game of the year.
Four Jayhawkers drown the crimson and blue colors for the last time. Captain Harold Hanzer, Don Cooper, John Shannon, and Andy Olean. All of the players have had a previous crack at the Tigers, the Rangers, one in which they are three victors. Olen is finishing his second year in competition.
Mr. Oread will virtually be stripper of students for a day at least, when the roots, Ku Ka's, Jay James and alumni pack the special train to Columbia tomorrow morning, when it starts for the football mea at 5:40.
Leave at 5:40 a.m.
Reserves and some members of the freshmen squad will leave on bususs as will Mac and his K. U. band. The junior varsity team takes part in morning and a steady stream of mots.

Tennessee Pete and Texas Kate Reign for a Day
Conglomeration of Colors and Costumes Judged Best in Years
Judges Much Puzzled
Tennessee Pete and Texas Kate took over the University campus for a round of fun and frolic today. Hobo mixers were held at all hours all over the campus this morning, the student community one another in their common garb of rags and tatters. The old clothes man sold out his entire stock to collegiate buyers this year, and even veterans on the Hill proclaimed that such conformation of colors and costumes on respectable students.
Judges selected to award prizes to the best dressed home and hoboeet were puzzled when it came time to announce the awards, but finally the judges had to be persuaded. Bronson, c128, and James Kennedy, c32; Miles Bronson were an outfit almost indescribable for the "I Am Brianna" card hung on a string neck. Kennedy's garb included a hatched atop a crop of red hair.
The awarding of the prizes was done in the Hobo convention held in Rockville, Md., this morning when Paul Parker, cheerleader, passed over the cerebral cortex.
The gymnasium was crowded to overcrowding for the convention, seve-
rially packed. They took a box score on the cafeteria, George Chamos and Van the animal man were the speakers at the convention, who had written the high pop for the game tomorrow.
Speeches Short
"Blood wid tell," said Chumos,
"and the game tomorrow will result
in overwhelming victory for K. U."
“Are we going to bout Mizacu?” asked Van. “Hell, yes,” the students yelled back.
"and the game tomorrow will result in overwhelming victory for K. U." Miss Nadine Long sang a song for the band including the "Oh me, Oh me," yells including the "Oh me, Oh me" yell which is always reserved for the Missouri game. And the convention wound up in an informal hob dance program called Agreve's orchestra playing.
Hobo Ball Is Climax
The big Hobo convention and ball in the gymnasium is the climax of a weeklong tradition. Clashes were more or less neglected and dignity was thrown completely aside to work up pop to "Beast" and other groups that select groups of hoboes hold private rallies, "shooting craps" for bits of beans, and "hogues" for honey. The hogue food such as onions, apples, potatoes and crackers, and in general keeping their comrades in a hollida-
Lady Nicole appeared to be mug priests of the gatherings, though a somewhat bedraggled priestess, a somewhat bedraggled priestess, a cob pipes and extremely short rolls which had once been cigars. Rather worshippers were bedraggled, too.
Collegiate reserve and sophisticated calm were not to be found anywhere in the passing throng of hoboes and bobettes, who favourably received by the company without the regulation week's growth of beard on their faces and bobettes trying to appear as anything but just a handsome, nearly unpopular. Cosmetic sign-bearers and bowyer representatives were hailed with joy. And the dress suits of the road painters were enrolled in uniforms equipped with paint or rent in tatters.
Students Revel in Wild Barb
Students Revet in Win Barb
*Not a student could be found on
the campus to enjoy the fullest this annual "rever-
sion to type" as most of the professors choose to call "Hold Day." This chance to cheer in the wildest of garbs, and parade before the public without any supervision, gives give high satisfaction to all.
"It was such a relief," one woman was heard to remark, "not to have any hose to mind, no waves to set in my arm, not a pair of clothes about when I went to bed. 18 right."
Dignity Discarded
Another: "Gee it's good to act natural once in a while. Our dignity has gone to the dogs. Whoops!" We whooped at the dogs, gave a war-watch at the real rally.
"Who'll buy my Listerine?" she asked a bobo, or hoboe, no one could tell which. "Not a cough in a carload—bile!—I am not, even your best friend. You don't drink, give all the time—the that's given me that schoolgirl complexion."
Even Iron Mike, the Kannas's train printer, got into the spirit of day and night as a street performer at the American Royal at Kansas City, declared, "The Kannas
