THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VOLUME XIX
FRESHMAN HEADGEAR THE ISSUE TOMORROW
Third Annual Olympic to be Staged on the Stadium Field
FIVE EVENTS SCHEDULED
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1921.
The third annual Freshman-Sophomore Olympics of the University will be staged Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The committee in charge of the affair stated this morning that they would guarantee the massing up of more under-clasemen in this attempt of the first year men to rid themselves of their badges of submission than ever before.
Tug-o-War, Rugby Football and Ludicrous Types of Races Planned
Manager of athletics F. C. Allen and track coach Karl Schleidman have been working in conjunction with the athletic department of Men's Student Council and have evolved a program that will repay spectators well for their trouble in going to the stadium Wednesday after games, according to reports of the plans.
Event number two is the obstacle race. Hurdles, pop drinking, and other challenges will be phases of this contest. Four men will be entered by each class and the scoring is to be counted as a cross country race, the low point team wins.
The activities begin at 2 o'clock prompt. The first event is to be the tug-o-war. Twenty men on each side of the argument will participate. All persons weighing more than 250 pounds are barred from competition.
Imitation rugby football comprises the third part of the program. Twenty-five players will enter this fray for each side. The committee has ruled out all biting, and use of brick bats and clubs. The affair will not be a particularly gentle encounter however, from all indications.
Act four is a sack race. Twenty men on a side are the specifications for this clash, and the committee also asked them if that foul took all of any kind is taboo.
The closing event is the shuttle race. Either four or eight men on a side are to work, and the football field will be the course of the race.
Dr. Allen urges that all men refrain from wearing any spiked or crested shoes on the field. He wishes to keep the ground in first class condition for the Thursday game, which would be difficult, could very easily tear up the turf so that the gridiron would be considerably damaged.
Owing to the fact that the freshmen have been more or less unhapered in their activities this fall there seems to be a slight sentiment on the Hill that they should lose the contest. Wednesday, the Freshman have won her first career title with side organizations," said Everett Bradley of the Student Council committee, "and will doubtless put up a strong fight."
SOPHS ORGANIZE FOR BATTLE

The Emporia Chamber of Commerce has invited the Hays Normal football team to meet the winner of the Emporia Normal C or E game played at Emporia Thanksgiving. Hays Normal has a perfect record this season and claims the championship of the conference, but the teams played have only been in western eleven, and the Emporia chamber蒙维利亚 believe that the championship belongs to one of the Emporia teams.

One hundred and twenty workers, the leaders in the drive, met at the first lion to turn in reports.
Dean Kelly's speech was, "An Analysis of the Difficulties of Post-War Drives." "It is more difficult to raise money now than for many years," he said. "A slump has followed the exodus of war and has plagued the war. The combination Community Chest, instead of each agency soliciting for itself, adds to the difficulty because it takes away the emotional appeal and puts the campaign on a straight intellectual basis. A campaign for enlightenment should help to solve the problem of reviving interest in taking care of social needs."
