ARMY'S CONFIRMATION INSURES K. U. GAME
Telegram Received This Morning by Doctor Allen Concludes Arrangements
INAUGURATES NEW POLICY
For First Time in History Kan
sas Will Play Eastern
Game
The game with the Army football team for October 7 next year was definitely scheduled in a telegram received this morning from West Point by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics. The wire stated that the Kansas acceptance of their offer had been confirmed on the 1922 schedule, and that final arrangements would later be made by letter.
There has been no return from the offer to Northwestern for a game in the new Stadium on November 18. This is the only open date on the football schedule, and the date must be filled with a home game, a game between Northwestern and the Valley team outside the Valley Conference is the preference for this game.
This marks the first time in the history of Kansas athletics that a Jayhawk team will travel into the "far east" for a football game. It heralds the opening of a new era in Kansas football life. It undoubtedly magnificates a new policy of going to the NCAA tournament each year. It marks the recognition of Valley athletics and of the Kansas team in the east.
The Army published their schedule this morning. The Army has scheduled at present, eight games for the 1922 season, six of which are to be played at West Point. The Army games are as follows: Muhlenberg and Lebanon Valley, Sept. 30; University of Kansas, Oct. 7; Alabamia Polytech, October 14; October 21, open date; Yale, October 28; November 6; Baylor, November 11; Bates, November 18; Navy, November 25. Two dates remain open. The University of Kansas, Muhlenburg, Bates, and Albama Polytech are the new comers on the Army schedule. The University of Kansas
is the only western team on the list.
The game is definite. Next fall
will be at Utah State, and this
ball team journeys to West Point to
play the army team on October 7

University Authorities Conclude to Continue Present Scheme of Meetings
NOON CLASSES ALLOWED
Final Examinations Not Postponed—Quizzes Will Start January 23
Flans for convocations presented to the University Sena at their meeting yesterday afternoon were tabled after considerable discussion and a number of amendments had been added.
The plan was submitted by the convocations Committee of which Pfc. C. C. Williams is the chairman. It was suggested that beginning next semester there should be a convocation period of forty minutes every Wednesday. In order to have this meeting, it would be necessary to cut the class hour to forty minutes each, and run classes until 12:30 "clock."
If there was nothing of sufficient importance for which to hold a convoction, the period could be used by students for recreation or study. If they were required to it is necessary to schedule a convoction at some time other than the regular e-convoction period. the class displaced by the special convoction would meet on the succeeding Weekend so the period set aside for convoction.
It was decided by the Senate that the plan would be too complicated, and that the plan now in use would be continued.
Owing to the many disruptions that have occurred this semester and to the fact that the spring term is four days longer than the fall term, Senate would consider the plan of deferring examinations one week, so that the fall semester would end February 4. It was the decision of the senate that examinations would be held at the scheduled time, beginning January 23.
Upon recommendation of the cabinet, departers were granted permission to schedule classes at the noon hour. Upon petition of the committee, the Senate added the names of Miss Barmun and Miss Plack to the Committee on Health, Hygiene and Tosing.
The department of physical education was given permission by the Senate to make application to the College of Liberal Arts that they be made a part of the College for administrative purposes.
WRITER OWNS WILLARD FARM
Florence Finch Kelly, c1*81, mother of Sherwin Kelly, c17, who recently purchased the Willard farm near her hometown, and of some distinction in this country.
Mrs. Kelly Has Written Several Western Stories
She has written "With Hoops of Steel," "Rhoda of the Underground," "The Fate of Felix Brand," "Emerson's Wife," and other western stories. In 1841 she published "Dixie," a book that marked her life through three generations.
Last year, the October issue of the Oread Magazine gave a review by Agnes Thompson, '96, of her late book, "What American Did." The book presents," says Miss Thompson, "in orderly and most readable fashion the activities of America in the great war. The first part of the book is about the experiences of the members of the United States Army and Navy and the second half to the Civilian assistance, both governmental and individual."
“And those who are ashamed or discouraged over what America did in the great World War, a careful perusal of “What America Did” would, as Mrs Thompson puts it, ‘Feel a recruitment of faith from this review of our determined effort of three short years ago.’
