Fine Arts Professor Addresses K. U. Ad Club
SPEAKS ON WAR POSTERS
Miss Rosemary Ketchan, instructor in the School of Fine Arts, spoke to the K. U. Ad Club on "World Posters" Thursday evening in the Administration Building. Miss Ketchen and her team are most at odds of the European countries, and had many of the recent war posters of America.
"The best poster is not always the best looking and nother are the beautiful ones always good," said Miss Mae's poster. "Posters are not good because they detail details to such a great extent. However the war has produced many fine examples of this art in both Europe and America, but it promises to become more popular."
The talk was concluded with a review of the mounted posters. The next meeting of the club will be held two weeks from the last meeting.

"GHOSTS" IS A STUDY OF MODERN MARRIAGI
Will Be Presented at Bowersoc
Theatre With Norwegian
Star November 7
"Iseen's Ghosts is a dramatic answer to criticism of the Doll's House by the moderec element of Norway," an event of the department of German.
In the "Doll's House" shown he two years ago, illen portrayed marriage as intolerable to the wife because of the infidelity of her husband and her consequent breaking of home ties. The criticism was on the parenting of the wife should not leave her children no matter "what the conditions.
"Ghosts" deals with the question of whether marriage is so sacred that woman must stay with her husband under all circumstances.
A great many of Ibsen's plays are so written as antipodes to each other. "Brand" portrays the Norway Ibsen wished for, "Peer Gyn" Norwegay as it was. Sometimes three stories converge in one thought. "The Wild Dog" continues the theme of the "Doll's House" and "Ghosts."
The question of heredity treated in "Ghosts" is foreshadowed in "Brand". "Ghosts" is read very extensively in England and according to Professor Sturtevant has had a powerful effect on the officers of the army and navy.
"Ghosts" is probably the best constructed of Iben's plays) said Professor Sturtevant. "It is the most condensed in action, has the fewest characters and the fewest changes in character," he said, perfection, that condensation so often imitated by Iben's followers, but never successfully!"
Professor Sturtevant also spoke of the acting of Madame Hammer and Rolf Felli who will present "Ghosts" here Monday evening, October 31. "They add to the interpretation of the Cosmopolitan ibesn," he said, "as a human being who has taste with delicacy. "Ghosts" is for all the world but there is Norwegian feeling and atmosphere which they very clearly portray."
The reports from the elections and proceedings of more than a hundred county clubs was in the Kansas office and had been set up in type within three hours after the meetings, Wednesday. The responsibility of gathering these reports was left almost entirely to about seventy Newsman I students. Besides being responsible for presenting these meetings for the Kansan, thes young reporters were given the task of sending a duplicate report to the various county newspapers over the state.

In view of the assignment of Tuesday as a holiday the cooperation of all students of the University is urged to protect the class work on Monday and Wednesday.

SPECIAL TRAIN WILL CARRY MOB OF AGGIES
Cow School Has Gone Hogwild Since Victory Over Mizzou Saturday
SQUAD IN GOOD CONDITION
Wildeat Coaches Expect an Even Game and Are Rather Hopeful
(Special to the Kansan.)
(Special to the Kauan.)
Manhattan, Kans., Oct. 28 — When the Agile special train leaves here for K. U. Saturday morning it will carry—besides some 1500 confident trainees —the heavy fighting Wildcat eleven that has faced the Jayhawkers since 1566.
Since Saturday's win over Missouri Tigers, entire Manhattan has been football mad. Followers of the Purple see in this year's fighting Aggies promise of fulfillment or a long deferred hope. In years past, the teams were expected to set over the camps to be sure, but rang halfheartedly. And the Wildcat teams have reflected the spirit of the fans; they have fought until the first break went against them, and then lost confidence. But a change is noticeable in the morale of the team as the slogan this year is "The Aggies Fight," and the team is living up to the context of the motto.
"Mike" Aeburn, Agie athletic director, who in 1906 coached the only K. S. A. C. teem that fias ever triumphed over Kansas, says: We are going down to Lawrence with one man, but he had, to meet what appears to be the strongest eleven in the valley. It should be a great battle."
Head Coach Bachman has put his charges through the heaviest drill of the year this week. The forward pass has been closely associated with the Aggie counters this year, but the K, U-Amets contest has continued. The Wilder will meet a worthy extempter of the aerial attack Saturday.
Sour Owl Appeared On Campus Today
Barring eleventh hour injuries, the only cripple on the Aggie squad will be Schmitz, veteran tackle, injured at Creighton, Nichols, a much lighter man, who played a stoll game for the Buckeyes. Placement, Burton, Aggie halfback, was badly bruised in the Missouri game but will likely be in the line-up.
The Owl has flown and is today hooting its way over the campus. Humorous poems, stories, jokes, cartoons and editors fill the latest number of "Sour Owl", junior honorary society publication.
An increased number of cartoons and illustrated jokes feature the issue. The frontispiece and editorial pages are particularly timely.
The sale of Sour Owls began at 11 o'clock and will continue until after the "Agile" game tomorrow.
Sphinx Steak Roast Sunday Night.
This year's Sphinx claims to be livest in the history of Kansas. Day night, the boys intend to give a real old fashioned steak roast at Brown's grove. The president has appointed the following on the committee: Hewett, and Bear. Everyone is urged to get buoy and bear. We will be on the high spots on the social calendar for the year.

Rooming House Matrons Hold Annual Meeting
Nine Thousand Five Hundred to See Eighteenth Contest Between Ancient Kansas Rivals; K. U. Only Once Defeated
The K. U. Rooming House Association, composed of all the matrons of both boarding and rooming houses, held their annual fall meeting Thursday afternoon at three o'clock in Meyers Hall.
Kansas possesses a most enviable athletic tradition, McCook Field has witnessed the development of the University's athletic history as scenes of many noteworthy contests in which the name of the Jayhawker has been linked with that of Honored enemies, the Tiger, Cornhusker and Sooner. The stadium will carry on the spirit of Kansas, will make greater and bigger the ideal and traditions of the Crimson and Blue.
This organization has been formed for several years. Its purpose is to foster closer co-operation between teachers and student teachers in the keepers and their student troomers. Jennie Glendening, President of the House Presidents Council hopes that this year will prove a decided victory over students as well as their matrons.
Saturday, October 29, marks an epoch in the history of the University of Kansas grander and more sublime than the day twenty-nine years ago when McCook Field was first opened. This day will officially open the Kansas Stadium. The Coliseum of Kansas, a memorial and monument to the past and a challenge to the future will be dedicated when the bearers of the Crimon and Blue carry on the fight that tied the great Nebraska team last year in the final game on McCook Field.
Dean Dear, Dean Blitz, and Mr. Bldgett also spoke on the importance of such a co-operative association and recommended that election of officers take place. The following were elected: Mrs. Charles Sterling, Mr. James Hale, E. Hale, vice president, and Mrs. D. R. Bryant, secretary.
The result of the game Saturday will not be decided until the final whistle blows, but Forrest C. Allen, director of athletics, only wishes that the Jayhawker team may carry on that wonderful fighting spirit that has made Kansas so worthy a foe; and that spirit that of the student body last year when they made the Stadium a reality instead of a possibility.
Although only two sections of the Stadium, 9,560 seats will be available for the game Saturday. Of this number 4,780 are stadium seats and the remaining number consists of temporary bleachers that have been arranged on the opposite side of the field.
Unusual interest has centered around the Kansas-Aggie game this year, perhaps because of the upset in the playoffs. The Aggies have winning from Ames and the Argues defeating the Missouri Tigers. Reports from Manhattan indicate that the whole student body is carrying on the fighting spirit of the football game.
Members of the executive committee of the State Editorial Association and delegates to the Kansas High School Editors' Conference will hear testimony. Hundreds of alumni will also return to Lawrence to witness the contest.
Pre-game activities have been planned by student organizations for this evening and for tomorrow morning. A rally will be staged at Robin's gym, and a hattan delegation will be met at the Union Pacific station when they arrive, 1500 strong, on their special at 11 o'clock by a great student body throng, including the University of Pittsburgh, 11 pep organization, the Ku Klu Klan.
Entrance to the stadium will be located at the north end of the field. A woven wedge fence has been strung around the entire structure and field and the crowd is to be handled by a complete system that secures the largest crowd ever present at an Aggie-Jayhawk struggle.
The cross country run will be staged before the game.
Parties Preceding Home Coming Game Ruled Out
Dean Blitt, at the request of Dr. Forrest C. Allen, made public the announcement today that there will be no permits given for parties of any kind attending the Thanksgiving day, in the interests of the football squad and of the student body generally. Dean Blitt hopes that individual organizations will not necessitate her refusal to requesta for dances on that night.
Dean Blitz also said that she is swamped with student representatives asking for permits to give Halloween dancing parties. From all over the country, he will be celebrated by most of the organizations on the Hill.
