Mexican Revolt Spreads
President Calles Says Situation Is Still Under Control
(United States)
Mexico City, Oct. 4—Jose Alvarez, secretary to the CSA, announced at Sennramo that alleged leaders of the revolution were executed near Guerranzaca early Monday morning.
Washington, Oct. 4.—The Mexican revolt has spread to four states but according to President Calles, up to noon today the situation is under control. According to reports from Presidential Press, the states affected were Vera Cruz, Puebla, Thacadis, and the federal district. General Gomez, former military commander of Vera Cruz, and Ferdano, former commander of Puebla, today both candidates for president are reported as leading the revolts.
The failure of the revolts to spread over wider areas of country within the state has made it difficult to have placed the government in a strong position to put down the rebellion.
Federal authorities discovered the rebel plot before it gained headway and were able to suppress it without battles.

Corbin Hall Has Landslide
As an added skill to all students, the Kansas will announce the games of the world series between New York and Boston.
The recent heavy rain has caused the terrace just cast of Corbion hall to slide. This same terrace slid early because of damage which was fixed early in the summer. Since then several small buildings were damaged. None of these have resulted seriously.
For the benefit of those who are not able to hear the play by play announcement of the game, we will cover the story every day containing the results of the game and a brief summary of the plays.

Hill Activities During October to Be Sufficient to Keep Profs Worried and Students Going
Those who have considered the month of September a dull one on the campus will have no reason for doing so for the month of October, which will probably be the busiest of the year.
Football will hold the spotlight, but dedications, conferences, pep rallies, dances, and what-not are to be inducted. The student will have to contend with which the student will have to content with. The strain which the student will be undergoing will be further enforced by the class teachers whose classroom schedules will be wrecked, whose wise words of wisdom will pass unheeded, and whose confidence without worry or condenation.
This strenuous period will be divided into four parts, each part a week and each week a time of endses running around, around, around and around. Be using a heavy, cold-collegiate.
The first part will open this week with the dedication of the Union Station building. White will deliver the main address at the dedication on Saturday morning from Fort Leavenworth to Fort Leavenworth will serve in the freehuman football field, on the grounds of Union Station.

As a result, the night-skipparade will be sandwiched in between dinner and the Varsity dance at 9 o'clock. Sunday has been set aside as a day to have a special lunch; in a general discussion of what gave or lost the victory for any school which
