Hold Hill Elections Today
Polls Kept Open at Noon to Give All Voters a Chance
Today is election day on the Hill.
The voting started this morning at 8:30, and the polls were open until 4:30 p. m.
At noon the voting was heavy in the senior class, but the students of the under-classes had failed to respond as they usually do. Some students selected voters that the voting would pick up over the noon hour because many of the students, especially those of the School of Engineering, have classes at the other end of the campus and therefore cannot get to the polls before noon.
"We are going to keep the polls open during the noon hour in order to give these students a chance to vote," said J. B. Ingalls, who is a member of the Student Council election board. "It looks as if it might be a fight to the finish, and I wouldn't try to predict who will win," said Jack Hefling this morning.

Scientific Service Needed in Kansas, Says Civic Worker
Need Given as Real Issue in Work With Society; Preventive Law
Necessary
That scientifically trained workers with a sympathetic understanding who can get results in their work is the need which was stressed last night by the speakers at the initia public meeting of the Kansas Conference of Social Workers in Fraser hall yesterday.
Elmer Scott of Dallas, Texas, read a paper on "The Challenge of Social Work to Kansas." Response was not published. By W. A. S. Bird, of Topoka and by W. A. S. Bird, of Topoka.
With the enthusiasm of one who has been a legislator of Kansas and has helped pass many social reform laws, Mr. Bird advised the large assembly that the great proposition was human need and human greed "We think too much of ourselves and not enough of others," he said. He further suggested that there should be laws that would prevent degeneration being brought into the realm of what we should realize that we should have trained and skilled educators in our public schools," said Mr. Scott. Society has been strongly prejudiced against a completely scientific approach to the restoration or improvement of the mentality and malicious delinquent and has been content to have them out of sight in the custody of people whose chief witness it is to keep them there. All they have so far observed, is the cost.
$3,000,000 Spent This Year
"We are spending $3,000,000 this
now. It would take $2,000,000 right
to house those who demand our
care. This thing has got to stop or
in twenty years we will be financially
bankrupt—worse than that—morally
bankrupt.
"Let us at once spend a million dollars a year in preventive measures, in mental clinics with skillful psychiatric social work—in school, medical service with visiting teachers; in trained and intelligent probation officers; in vocational education and honest industrial opportunities; in marriage and divorce, and above all things the teaching of the first essentials to our youth, namely, the art of parenthood and home making.
Probation Officers As Guide
"Every child whose behavior subject
to probation should be dealt with wholly as a citizen in the making. The probation officer is his mentor and guide and the protector of his home and environmental surroundings. The Industrial School is the place of last resort and not an easy means for the court and officers to pass the buck."
"It is of definite concern, however, to the state, to be sure that these children received genuine parental care while in the institution, and that their home placing was not only accustomed to the welfare of the child but its influences on him made a matter of permanent supervision by the agency.
Dear Dyer announced this morning that more than 2100 of the student enterprise tickets have been sold already, and that he expects the remainder of them to be purchased in a short time.
Only about forty of the $10 tickets remain unsold, and slightly more than one hundred of the $13 ones. He wishes to emphasize the fact that those who hold enterprise tickets will be serving their seats for the basketball games before the open sale of the tickets is begun.
"If, in this industrial age, we cannot adjust our thinking to social profit rather than an irritated contempt for us, we will have belied modern intelligence."
Enterprise Tickets Going Fast, According to Dye
They are still on sale and may be secured from the Athletic office or from Dean Dyer at room 113 Fraser hall.

Atwater, O. Oct. 11, (U.P.)—Eight children were killed and several injured today when a bus driver demisified by "the Clevelander," the fastest train on the Pennsylvania railroad between New York and Cleveland. "The bus was used by the teacher to survey the children to and from school."
The accident occurred at Lambert's crossing, a short distance from here. The engineer of the train saw the vehicle to late to jam on the brakes, causing the car to crash. The children, some instantly killed, some dying, and other badly injured, were hurled in all directions. The locomotive plowed through the wreckage, scattering it along the road of way for several hundred feet.
As soon as the train came to a stop, the members of the train crew and the passengers began picking up the bodies. While a score of passengers picked up the little victims, carrying the maimed and battered bodies to the truck side, others rushed to send in telephone calls for help.
A few minutes after the crash, the dead, dying, and injured were placed on the train and pushed into the office where doctors and nurses were waiting.

Yanks Come Back; Win From Giants by Score of 4-2
Babe Ruth Hits Two Home Runs, Upsetting Dope; Redeems Yesterday's Defeat
BULLETIN
Score by Innings
Yankees 010 210 000—4
Giants 010 001 000—2
The batteries used in the game today were; Giants, McQuillan and Snyder; Yankees, Pennock and Schang.
Polo Grounds, N. Y., Oct. 11—Fed by the unstoppable Babe Ruth, who crashed out two home runs, the Yankees charged over the Giants and the Cubs to win the series here this afternoon by a score of 4-2. Ruth's two homers into the right-field stands and one left-field stand by Erin Ward, gave the Yankees enough runs to beat the Giants in the race for the world series.
Down on one the National League championship, outplayed and outfought in a game they should have played better. A plight of the Yankees was painful.
After yesterday's exhibition of how they can't play baseball, the Yankees must have felt like the Aaron Schwartz cloudy, murky, gloomy, and sooor.
Diamond Wetted by Kain
intermittent rainfall, the field at the polo grounds the battle is to be resumed today, was ready to give the athletes and fans another day to play of the greatest games ever played.
Landis said this noon that he had received report that the field was in good condition and that the teams would go to this afternoon if the rain bald off.
One wise crack was made after the game that no team in the world could have lost that game but the Yankees. No other major league team had a win that would could have acted so mentally sluggish and so mechanically uncertain.
Ruth Triplied in Fifth
Ruth triplied in the fifth, with one out; Schang doubled in the sixth with two out; Dugan triplied in the seventh. Pitt singled in the eighth with one out; and yet the Yanks didn't score.
The base-running of Witt and Pitt, and the overbearing of Babe Rin in trying, as Ruth always tries, to win. The overbearing of Jimmie O'Connell, $7,800 California beauty, remarked quietly after the game, "The best way to beat the Yanks is to let them get on the ball." "How did you know what to do when they get there?"
Mental alertness and mechanical perfection stopped every chance the Yankees had to win the game. Stennett was the ninth inning was the decisive punch.
Regard Penn Seriously
The Giant players feel that they
would win the weight
games if they had Herb Pennock
of the way in the opener. The
champions do not attempt to deny that
they have won the former
Bernie pitcher very seriously.
The official paid attendance at yesterday's game was 55,207, which made a new series record, and the actual attendance was probably 58. The receipts, which also tablished a new record, were $181,-112.
