JOURNALISTS GATHER CLOTHES FOR RUSSIA
Editorial Classes Volunteer Aid To American Friends Service Committee
The editorial classes in the department of journalism are gathering up clothing to be sent to the American Friends Service Committee through which the work of the Russian Relief is being carried on. "The movement is entirely voluntary," said Dr. Robert O. Mahin of the department. "You have to drive a drive. It was through interest of the students that the idea started."
According to palletists and letters sent out by the Friends Committee, Russia's barriers are down, and "correspondents, foreign and business men, and relief workers are all pouring in together." Provision trains are being run to Samara and Kazan in the heart of the famine district. One of the best equipped of these carries a traveling bake-shop, wherein a basket is baked daily, a kitchen of bread is baked daily, a laboratory, a dispensary, sallys, a medicine, a waitress, and various women for the relief workers. However, these relief methods were made possible only by the sacrificial mixing of the peasants themselves.
Although the majority of the people in the United States have not been brought face to face with these conditions, the railroads are co-operating and more than forty are now hauling grain free to seaports. One recently moved sixty cars of grain from mills to seaboard free of charge.
All communications may be sent to the American Friends Service Committee, 20 South Twelfth Street, Philadelphia, Pa, and the relief supplies in care of Elizabeth Marvell, Fifteenth and Cherry Streets in the same city.
Anyone desiring to make contributions may do so at the Kananella office any day this week. For further information the Kananella Office may h

Fred. Robert Slagle of the University of North Dakota at Vernillon was hung in effigy to a flag pole by students on December 13 as a demonstration of their disapproval of his general attitude.
Discontent toward the president has been growing among the students for some time. The immediate cause of the "hanging" was the censoring by the president of an editorial in a column of the university paper, the Volante, condemning the attitude of the faculty.
North Dakota Students Hang President in Effigy
There will be a regular meeting of the Barton County Club in Fraser Hall tonight at 7 o'clock. All members please come out to discuss the Christmas dance and receive clickets. This meeting will not interfere with the Christmas tree.—Frank Hill, president.

You Can Never Tell About These Actors
A great many things went on behind the curtain at the collies last Saturday night, beside the usual make-up. To those who woned the show from the audience every act went off with clock-like precision and regularity. But it's a different story from the actor's standpoint.
Something there was that happened back of the scenes that was not on the program and about which many people would care to hear participants. Something of which only one actor often occurs in theatrical after weeks of rehearsal—an actor, put his pin on an actress.
What person in the audience would have thought that the "Last Waltz" chorus which "interpreted its dance with emotion" would be practiced steps until a few minutes before time for its appearance on the stage? And how many people were aware of the fact that among the beautiful, velled (emphasis on the velled creatures composing the choreography) instructor who is not noted for her beauty. Neither is it generally known that one act came near being cut out at the last minute when one of the leads developed a sudden and about overpowering attack of the voice; it has added to the enjoyment of the "Save Brush Quartette" stunt that the audience known that the attractive little fire plazaing in the middle of the stare was the result of much labor from the quartette in art class and an electric fan.

Rotary Club to Entertain Foot ball and Cross Country Teams
MORE ARE RECOMMENDED
Massey, Wilson, Patterson and James Recommendations Not Yet Acted Upon
Captain Paul Jones
Fifteen men were awarded football Kits at a meeting of the athletic board Tuesday afternoon. They are:
Courtney Payne, Jorge
Chas. Black
John Boone
Clyde Freeze
Melvin Griffin
Severt Higgins
Max Kreuger
Andrew McDonald
Gordon Saunders
D. L. Spurgeon
Clarence Wilson
G. L. Weidlein
Pete Reedy
Truck coach Karl Schlademan has recommended four cross country men for K9, but the athletic board has not acted on the recommendation as yet. The men recommended are: 1. Jared Sutherland, an assistant Massley, and James Wilson.
The Rotary Club will give a banquet to the football and cross country team this evening at Weidemann's Tea Room.
The captain for the 1922 eleven will be chosen tonight. Several men have been mentioned for the honor. Carl McAdams, All-Valley half back, Severt Higgins, fighting tackle; *Prexy* Wilson, Andrew McDonald, speedy end are all old men and are possibilities for the leadership of new McAdams, McDulah, McAdams, and McAdams are the three two-year letter man, and it is probable that the Jahywacker leader will be chosen from these three.
The resting captain, "Pete" Jones has played the three years alloted by Valley rules, and will not be back for more work on the gridiron.
Next year's team will miss the strong work of Jones. His consistent and hard played won the unanimous choice for an All-Ville berth on the first team this year. His place in the line will be hard to fill as he is one of the best guards that Kansas ever had.
Gordon Saunders, light, but game to the core, in the center of the line will be graduated this year. His defensive tactics will be missed next season. Pete Reedy, bulky and short guard, has played his last football for the Crimson and the Blue. His weight will be hard to match in the Big Ten, but Spurgeon and Spurgeon, both first year K men will graduate in the spring. Spurgeon's planeing ability will be sorely missed. Few will ever forget the great gaps that he tore in the supposedly invincible Missouri line in the Turkey Day victory. If Spurgeon does not take a degree this year, he will be hard to find. Weldline will be graduated this spring also, and replacement material for this hussy guard and tackle will be hard to discover.
