INTERTAINERS PLEASE AUDIENCES IN KANSAS
Extension Division Gets Many Compliments on Work of Talent
"Our lecture course programs now being given in various Kansas towns are being well received everywhere, and according to reports coming in, the programs are highly pleasing in every way," said Miss Joe Henderson, secretary of the Lecture Course Extension Division.
Excellent reports always follow the University talent, according to Miss Henderson. As a rule, she says, the demand for this talent far exceeds the amount which can be supplied, due to the fact that most of the artists must keep up their University work.
The Little Theater Company, mad up of Mr. and Mrs. Cooper MacMurray and Miss Margaret Larkin, all former University people, are playing almost full schedule now, and are highly complimented on their work according to reports sent in to the Extending Committee, in bringing in the following Kansas towns: Mildred, Moran, Uniontown, Stark and Walmut.
"In many towns this company gives a matinee at the school houses," reports Miss Henderson, "and it gives the pupils a chance to get a closer contact with the artists. Miss Larkin entertains with Spanish songs and readings, and usually a short one-act play is given."
The University Concert Company,
made up of Dean and H. M. L.
Butter, and an accompanist, returned
last week from having given a week's
entertainment at Morganville, Long-
ford, Simpson, Jewell City, and
Waterville. "Their work always pleased",
commented Miss Henderson.

TWO ROOTER SECTIONS RESERVED WEDNESDAY
000 SEATS AVAILABLE
Cheering Fans Will Occupy Sections F and G on the Kansas Side
Kansas takes the second step toward a solid two sections of cheering fans for the football games when the Cincinnati vs. the coveted seats opened Wednesday.
More than 1,000 seats are available. The signing of the cards does not entitle one to a seat. This was only done so that the cheerleaders would know how many seats to ask for. However anyone who wishes to

The first meeting was held October 17, 1919, at the Eldridge Hotel; Colonel Walker presided. The constitution had two twenty-five officers of the army who became charter members. This was the first organization of the kind ever established. Among those which followed were Seattle, Pittsburgh, Pa.
In the beginning it was hoped to make the association national, but the War Department objected. The policy has been changed now so that the organizations are becoming national; the Nebraska organization was the first to do so.
At a ten given by Miss Lulu Gardner, for the members of the rhetoric staff Thursday, Miss Helen Rhoda Hoops and Mr. Victor Soberg gave interesting accounts of the war in the summer.

Alibi Is Not The Object When Kansan Correspondent Writes Column of What He Witnessed
Nothing in this column is to be considered as an alibi. For Kansas lost and the game wasn't stolen, either. But this is what we saw.
The first big laugh of the trip came at the expense of Doctor Allen, and it's too good to keep. After arriving in Kansas City and locating the special car, "Phog" went up in the hills on his way back to wake up in Des Moines the next morning "Doe" Bailey announced that Phog had been left in Kansas City.
After resting Friday morning, a alimbing up on the Drake field, and a good sleep Friday night, the men were in good spirits. But if the game had been played Friday the score would probably have been 28 to
"Doc," Bailey didn't get much sleep on the way to Drake town. On the Kansas squire there were numerous bullies and several bosses, burglar the men down.
Well, there wasn't much sleep that night for anyone. Each man on the trip swipes he didn't get over four hours' sleep. It was a rough ride he had to contend with, constantly he always stopped in a hurry and started more quickly.
Here's Doctor Allen's version of the affair: In the Union dept he met "Red" Brown. While talking he looked at his ticket to see what time the train left. Forgetting that he had already given in his ticket for the journey to Des Moines he read 11:40 clock on the return ticket.
Now for the game. And the big question on every one's lips is: "How did it happen?"
At exactly 11:33, Doctor Allen started for the train. But alas, it was too late, for the train left at 11:30.
In the first place, the Jayhawkers lacked a final punch. Time after when it seemed certain that Kansas would score, the Jayhawkers endure penetrate the skirt, the Drake ends, not complete a forward pass.
O against us.
After the fit in Des 'Monies, they felt better, but they didn't have the money. They can't step on to the season is a mistake. It just cost us the game.
Another thing that counted against the Kansans war the Army trip. The men were train sick and low in spirits.
Right here and now let it be known that the Drake team is not to be scuffed at. For the Des Moines school has a good team, exceptionally strong on the defense, when pressed, with long flashes of offensive strength.
The two Drake tackles each weighed over 200 pounds, one tipping the scales at 233 and the other at 208. They were fairly good players, too.
One was the fumble on the Drake six-inch line. Both Prexy and a Drake man fell on the ball, Prex over
Game. The opponent must that should win against breaks or anything else. There were several disputed plays, however.
This is not crabbing, but the referee had something to do with the game. The Jawhakers have a team

El Ateneo Selects New Members
the ball and the Bulldog man with his arms around the oval. The referee had the guess, however, and he said, "Drake's ball."
El Ateneo, Spanish Club, announces the following new members: John Griffith, Eula Bozell, Frances Keith, Julian Wakeham, Ena Least, Goldin Stevenson, Carollia C. Cheney, Louise MLCourth, Dory Connerv, Valbarger Swenson, Georgia Stubbs, Irene Pearce, Narcisse Abella, Robert Facht, Albert Culpeper, Wayne Smith, Maria L. Jewett, Constance Stanley.
Another time was when Kansas again had the ball inside the Drake 10-yard line. The Jayhawkers had a few inches to go for the first down. Krueger made a line buck on the fourth down and gained a few inches. "My ball," shouted the referee, and he placed it on the ground. The linemen were called out to measure and it was hard to tell whether Kansas had made the distance or not. But Drake took the ball on downs.
It was an intercepted forward pass that cost the Jayhawkers their first chance to score.
McAdams did some pretty putting.
He did not make a single bad kick,
and on exchange of punts Kansas
gained every time.
When Spurgeon went in during the last half, on every play for a few times he called time out and limped out. "Don't hurt much. Orders are orders."
Drake drew several penalties during the final quarter for killing, time out and for exceeding her limit of times out. The Builds battled on every play in the latter period but there's no there. They were playing football.
No football game is won until it is played. In Des Moines Saturday Yale and Kansas were both favorites among local sport followers. They were wagering 3 to 1 that Kansas would beat Drake and 3 to 1 that Kawai would be Iowa. Yale lost 6 to 0, and Kansas lost 6 to 0.
Just a few statistics collected at the end of the first half. Kansas had made eight first downs to Drake's three. The Jayhawkers had completed three forward passes, the Bulldogs none. Each team had fumbled once, Drake recovering both times. Drake had intercepted one pass. The ball had been in Drake tercree fourths of the time.
Line Coach Karl Schlademann did not accompany the team_to Des Moins because of the illness of his wife.
Orchard. Drake quarter, made a pretty run. It was the fourth down and 25 yards to go. He dropped back into the end zone, taking on the ball he ran 24 yards before
fore being downed, falling short of
making the distance by only a yard.
It was a great piece of open field
running.
Football is an activity just as politics; in fact it is one of the greatest activities. No man can enter too many fields. But if a man is genuinely interested in both football and politics there should be no reason why a football man should not run for office.
Now comes the annual fail question of football men running for office.
But he should not be asked to camp paign, and the election must not in any way hinder his training. The Kansas team has a hard fight ahead and an election week should not disrupt practice.

Jay House Discovers New Feature of Army Game
Jay E. House, former Kansan and paragrapher on Kansas papers, attended the Kansas-Army game at West Point and writes concerning it in his column in the Philadelphia Public Ledger:
Occasionally, our search for the unusual discloses a specimen of free milling ore. On Saturday we were permitted to view a spectacle of some public interest to which no admission fee was exacted or accepted. We refer to the Army-K. U. football game at West Point.
