No. 59
"The competing teams are running neck and neck in the last lap of the Stadium-Union drive for the prizes which will be given the winning teams at the completion of the campaign," said Helen Jaka, publicity director of the drive, this morning.
The amount that has been subscribed by the various teams will be posted on the "Kick That Goal" sign at the Fourteenth street entrance to the campus, showing the captain, team number, and the exact standing of each team in their race for the prizes.
Rally Dinner Tonight
The winning teams among the men and women will be given a table of honor at the rally dinner which the Memorial executive committee will give tonight at the Commons. The dinner will be given to show the appreciation of the time served by the captains and their teams.
The program will consist of reports of the captains, and speeches by Dr. Forrest C. Allen and representative students. Immediately after the dinner further plans will be made for the completion of the campaign which will end on Tuesday night of next week.
Free Space for Winners Free picture space in the 1923 Jayhawker will be given to the teams getting the largest number of subscriptions, and to the team turning in the largest amount of money. In addition, said Mr. Rambo Banani, Bachlor certificate will be issued to the fraternity and the sorority which has the highest record per subscriber."
To Extend Campaign
According to reports from different captains the teams are meeting with success. "It is expected that splendid reports will be handed in tonight at the dinner," said Professor Baumgartner.
The period of the campaign has been extended until next week. This action has been taken by the executive officers in many cases the students were not home when the workers called, making it necessary to make a second trip, making it impossible to see the students that should be seen in one week.
According to present plans a celebration dinner will be given next Tuesday night, at which the final reports from the captains will be turned in, as to the number and amount of the subscriptions.
Tabulations of those subscriptions will be completed the next day, and the result of the "Kick That Goal" campaign will be announced at K. U. Missouri football game by "Han" Hamilton at the Stadium field.

"Cross That Goal Line"-Battle Cry of Yearling Squad
Freshmen Meet Varsity if Annual Pre-Thanksgiving Game on Stadium Field
The K. U. varsity and the K. U. freshman eleven will meet in their annual pre-Kansasviking contest starting at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon at the Memorial Stadium, the affair being a "benefit" to pay Homecoming expenses. Admission, however, will be only 10 cents.
The game will be the last chance of the student body to see the Kansas team in action before the Missouri game. To Kansas football enthusiasts, this contest is of particular interest because it gives the opportunity to get an accurate lineup for each game of next year, for varsity reserves as well as regulars get into the fray in addition to the freshmen.
Freshmen to Represent "Tigers"
Because so many practices have been secret, few of the student body realize the ability that has been shown by John Bunn's freshman team. Because they sure to make names for themselves in Missouri Valley football, the Freshmen will wear their Missouri Tiger colored jerseys, and the yearlings, anxious to make good, will put all they have into a game in order to the players directed by Coach Clark.
It has been the custom for years to have the varsity-freshman game on the Saturday before the Missouri game. Never before has a Kansas team had a game without having its goal line crossed. Naturally, the slogan of the freshmen for Saturday's game is "Cross the varsity goal line." The yearlings could well boast if they accomplished the Drake and Oklahoma have failed to do.
Proceeds Pay Homecoming Expenses
In order to make the 1923 Homecoming the most elaborate and interesting in K. U. history, there are four key responsibilities Homecoming committee must be responsible. It was through an arrangement with the athletic association that the proceeds of Saturday's game are to go for this purpose. Hercetofthe money has gone for college scholarships for the year, however, the sale of programs has taken care of this demand.
The call of cheerleaders for the contest Saturday may be summed up: "Everybody out! Remember the time, 2. p. m. at the Stadium."

Pact Allows British Vessels to Carry Sealed Liquor Into American Harbors

United Press
Harbors
The draft proposed by the British government and instructions covering its presentation to Washington are said to have been received here at the British embassy early this morning.
Treaty Is Not Signed
An agreement between the United States and Great Britain on the treaty virtually has been concluded; because of the possibility of a last minute hitch, both governments are actually united until the treaty actually is signed.
One question that is understood still to be under discussion a how the traditional three-miles limit is to be extended for the purpose of the road or highway. To name a twelve-mile limit or extend the limit to some other place.
Cannot Decide on Limit
The treaty is to be two main features: one, to permit British ships to carry liquor under seal into America; the other, to extend the right search at sea beyond the three-mile limit to permit the United States more adequately to combat runners.
The pact is expected, however, to reaffirm the traditional three-mile limit for the purpose of ordinary international custom.
Speaks at Y. M. Luncheon
'Con' Hoffman Tells of Influence of Youth in Europe
Found at last - - an irresistible force
"The influence of the youth on present day European conditions is remarkable," said Conrad Hoffman, executive director of the Israel Fund, and former secretary of the University Y. M. C. A., in an address Thursday at the third weekly luncheon of the Y. M. C. A., the Jewish Museum of the Y. W. C. A., were guests.
The Mr. Hoffman went on to say that the peace sentiment in Europe, and in Germany especially, has been crushed out. Nations are spending more on armies and navies now than they did before the recent war.
"America, as a nation, can not do so much," continued Mr. Hoffman, "but the youth of America, embodied in the students, must help bear the burden of the great responsibility of European students in attempting to restore Europe to its former condition."
Freshmen Take Up Soccer
"Freshmen are taking a keen interest in soccer, and they are all anxious to enter the game, probably because it is a change from their ordinary work," said James N.

Class dinners for both men and women were proposed. Virginia Pendleton and Mary May had charge of refreshments.
Decoration Committee to Award Three Cups Upon Different Basis
All Organized and Unorganized Houses May Compete for Trombies

One cup to the best decorated women's organized house. Also includes all social, professional, and honorary organizations.
One cup to the best decorated sen's organized house. This includes ll social, professional, and honorary raternities.
One cup to the best decorated unorganized house. This classification includes all-board clubs and un-classified houses.
The cups are being donated by Innes, Hackman & Company, Guatson's, and Griffin Ice Company.
“There is no reason why the houses shouldn't be even better decorated than they were last year,” said Rachel Knutts, a graduate nuttice. “This will undoubtedly be the greatest homecoming in the history of the University up to the present time, and there certainly should be an added incentive to do better work.” She said she thought they do not care to enter the contest. The business men in Lawrence have some elaborate plans for decoration and we do not want them to beat the students. Let’s show them how much more attractive those that have some real spirit.”
All houses are urged to start their decoration at once. "The sooner the loggers, mottows, and other decorations are up, the more pop and spirit we will have," said "Ham" Hamilton. "Start the decorations at once."
