George O. Foster Urges
Students to Fill Out
Study Cards at Once
Records Furnish Information and Facilitate Handling of Grades
All students, regardless of what school they are enrolled in, should fill out study cards at the earliest convenient date. The student lists on the card the number of rolls and leaves the card in a box placed on the desk in the office of the Dean of the College for that purpose. The cards serve a double purpose, naming the records and their narrator. They furnish information for permanent records, and they also enable the student to get his grades without going to each of his instructors. For that purpose is duplicate without going to each regular card is given to the student.
str. Foster also requests that students who have changed their address since registration, or who did not know their address or telephone number at the time of registration, have time to print out the student name and next week at which time copy for the student directory will be sent to the printer. Students should be anxious to have their names, addresses and telephone numbers listed correctly in the directory, as it is often the only location where a relation or relatives have of leaving them.

Sydney Debate Tryouts Oct. 5
Perlips he wishes he had been a freshman in 1875 when the freshman class totaled 19 members and when the entire enrollment was 194 students, a total about equal to Mac's combined bands this fall.
Did you ever wonder what a lamb is freshman thinks about when he sees some 4,000 unfamiliar fares during his first week on the campus?
Fraser and Blake hall are the only buildings now standing which were erected 50 years ago. Paved streets and even sidewalks were unknown on the campus. The present equipment and convenience represent the slow and careful efforts of each department, universally to obtain adequate equipment.
The debate tryouts for the Sydney University debate will be held OCE. 2 instead of Oct. 2, as was stated in years past. The tryouts will be banded in not later than Oct. 4.
After a month on the Hill probably a student of 51 years ago knew practically everyone enrolled in the University of Kansas, but think what he missed! There were none of the large classes where now you can hope to be a big athlete, a big athletic, no vacancies, none of the large gatherings which represent us to a major part of our university life outside the classroom.

"It is the last day of the five-day limit on paying fees, with a penalty of a dollar a day," Mr. Khooz said.
Those who have not paid their fees by tomorrow will be required to pay them and their enrollment will be automatically withdrawn.
