JOHN SHEA GIVES RESUME
University Has Put in Paving And Is Doing Landscape Gardening
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 18, 1922.
The University of Kansas is going through the greatest period of building and campus improvements in its history, according to a resume of building activities on the hill by John M. Sheen, superintendent of buildings and grounds, which appeared in the October number of the Graduate Magazine. The legislature of 1921 made appropriations for six build-
The general contractor of the new electrical laboratory in which the students of electrical engineering recently held a housewarming, was the Elephant Construction Company, and the contract of the building was $924.000.
Complete Power Plant Soon
The University power and heating plant was built by the Collins Brothers Construction Company, Kansas City, Missouri, at a cost of $1,414.85. The machinery for the building was installed by University mechanics, and the plant, when com-
pared with cost approximately $200,000.
The new hospital building at Rose-
dale, which is to be ready for occupancy in the early summer of 1923 has already been leased than $25,000. The contract for the girl's dormitory located on North College grounds was let to Mono Green, of Manhattan, for $125,000. The building is under construction now.
Work on Administration
Preliminary work toward completing the Administration Building was began two weeks ago, by Collins Brothers Construction Company, of Kansas City, Mo., to whom the contract was let for $292.356.
An effort was made last month to let a contract for the construction of a new library building failed, owing to the fact that all bids exceeded the amount of the appropriation. Plans are being re-drafted, and another contract may be made to let the contract. The appropriation amounts to $250,000.
Propaganda For Shapely Ankles Is Thick in Pari
Continue Paving of Hill Three thousand five hundred yards of pavement have been put in by the University. The Mississippi street approach from the end of the city pavement at the edge of the campus to the south from three south down the hill to the new power plant has been paved.
The hill in front of the Administration Building is being graded preparatory to laying it out in landscape gardening, as provided by the designs furnished by Messrs. Hare & Hare and George E. Kesander architects of Kansas City, Missouri. The work made it necessary to remove nearly 10,000 yards of material, 2,500 yards of which is solid stone.
Paris, Oct. 18 (United Press)—French women are being told how to cultivate a shapey leg and ankle.
and in the Metro (subway).
The method to one who is not initiated recalls the Chinese method of footbinding.
the newspapers, in the street cars,
and in the Metro (subway)
This modern torture confines the wearer to the house, and the bandage is far too bulky to be worn under the filmy stockings now in vogue.
It consists in wrapping a rubber band tightly about the lower leg and ankle in a certain prescribed way revealed only to the initiated.
Unique Paper Given Journalists
Milton Amos, c25, spent Sunday Topeka.
Prince C. G. Dumal, of the department of English, has presented the department of journalism with a copy of the "New Mexican" for November 24, 1849, *published at Santa Fe, New Mexico*. It is a four column two page paper and the subscription price was $7.00 a year. Today that would amount to something like $20.00.

Can Stir the Good Seeds?
At the last minute there are still several days left before the fifty-year line. Cheerleader Miller reported.
He urges that these be taken up at once. The seats can of course easily be filled, but for the good of Kansas every seat should contain a leather-lumed male rooter.

The merchants of the town are apprised of the event, and are planning to show the students a royal time. It will be Saturday night, following the first victory of the year.

Mr. Martin has been troubled with mice eating the burlap covering specimens, which have been stored, until he has time to prepare them for exhibition.

SECOND VARSITY TEAM WILL FACE ICHABODS
Clark Will Not Use First String Men Unless Absolutely Necessary
TAKE LIGHT WORKOUTS
Practice This Week Is Not Strenuous With Little Serimmazing
That the second varsity team would start the game against the Washburn Ichabods Saturday afternoon was the announcement made last night by Coach George "Patsy" Clark. He also said that it was not until the end of the first team men would enter the game, unless absolutely necessary.
The men on the first varsity team again took a light workout last evening not scrimmaging at all. The players watched the scrimmage between the yearlings and the second team and afterwards ran signals for more than a half hour. Just before going to the sheds, the entire varsity squad was taken over to the dummy pits for tackling practice.
Kansas Line-up
The probable line-up for the Washburn game follows: Boone and Griffin, fin ends; Mosby and Edwards, tackles; Harris and Haley, guards; Lonborg, center; Andersen, quarter; Timmons and Calvert, half; Shannon full.
Shannon and Hodges were both showing well in the backfield against the frost last night. Both men were watching the game, and showed drive in their running.
Washburn Line-up
The Washburn line-up: Schrader and Jamison, end; Saxon and Barstow, tackles; Blevins (captain) and Fowler, guards; Bruce, center; Davis, quarter; Brown and Brewster, halfs; Severs, fullback. The Washburn attack is centered around Blevins and Brewster. The Ichabods are bringing two full teams to Lawrence Saturday.
Several men on the regular variety squad are still limping about and it is probable that these men will not enter scrutiny until the first of next week. Coach Clark was of the opinion yesterday that a good rest would do the men more good than practice.

The more complete organization of the divisions of the corps throughout the state will result in a more spread study of military problems. The department has planned tats the problems of military taxi ties which are similar to those studied by the School of the Line a Fort Leavenworth. With the addition of the seniors from the R.

GILPIN COMING TO LAWRENCE
First Negro Actor to Gain Prominence in America
Charles S. Gilpin, the first microactor to be starred on the American stage, is coming to the Bowersock, October 24, in Eugene O'Neill's much talked of play, "The Emperor Jones." Mr. Gilpin played the part of the slave in Drinkwater's "Abraham Lincoln" during its New York run. The merits of his acting attracted the attention of Mr. O'Neill, who was at a crucial point in his playing players for one who would measure up to the requirements of the lead in "The Emperor Jones." At the end of the run of "Abraham Lincoln," Gilpin was signed and "The Emperor Jones" was produced.
The play tells the adventures of a wily, dominieering nogro, once a Paulman porter, who imposes himself as sovereign over a little island in the seaside. He suspects last rebel. He suspects the rebellion and anticipates it by flight. Fear after fear haunts him as he flees through the dense forest. On his trail is the pursuing vengence. The play fears as it affects a primitive nature.
Gilpin, by his dramatic skill in portraying the gradual transition of the character of the Emperor from a physical giant, a braggart and bully, which he is at the beginning of the play, to the frightened, cringing villain, to the fate that fame in one night and was voted by the Drama League as one of the ten greatest contributors to dramatic art during the past season.
Ship Gridgraph to Aggies For Their Use Saturday
The score board that was used for the Kansas-Drake game last Saturday will be sent to Manhattan some time soon. He will have charge of it there.
A board similar to the one used here, was used at Columbia for the Missouri-Ames game, where a crowd estimated at 5,000 witnessed the contest. The students of Missouri were so enthused with the board that the Student Council bought it outright, pating $750 for it.
