"It is all a scheme to fool the public" said the doctor this morning, and gives as proof of his statement the following article printed in a recent issue of he Journal of the American Medical Association: "There is no scientific evidence that common colds can be prevented by the use of vaccines, despite the glowing recommendations of vaccine makers and researchers. It is characterized by cataract inflammation of mucous membranes of the nose and throat are caused by various organisms, including a number of the commoner coci and the bacillus Peiffer. They are contagious, and spread rapidly from one person to another by the transfer of the bacteria in an infected host. Most of these colds are continually occurring in homes and communities. The organism concerned in one small epidemic may be different from that in another, and it is impossible to anticipate what organism is about to invade the household or community. The inoculation of mixed vaccines in the hope of providing immunity to the invaders fails to produce immunity sufficient to prevent the infection of mucous membranes. Where completely controlled experiments have been made with large numbers of persons, colds have occurred among the inoculated in as large proportion as among the un-inoculated. During the inoculation of the vaccine, indicated that preventive inoculation of troops with vaccine containing large numbers of phemococcus reduced the incidence and mortality of pneumonia. in the case of superficial infection of the nasal pharyngeal mucous membranes with diverse etiology less can be expected, and practical results indicate this slope towards theoretical considerations is wef unused." Mrs. Emma Faule, house mother or the Delta Tau dael fraternity, sent several days last week in Kansai to visiting her daughter, Mrs. Almoe.

Chancellor Lindley will address the students in Fraser Chapel Tuesday evening at 9 o'clock. Dean Black mares urges all graduate students and men who are interested to be present. The University of Kansas and Haskell Institute break into the current issue of the Dearborn Independent, Henry Ford's weekly publication, for three articles. The "take" story that was printed some time ago in a topeka paper is now available. After, head of the Astrometry Department has discovered a method of predicting weather years in advance, was printed some time ago in a Topeka has disclaims any knowledge of the "discovery," and just where the insufficient reporter got the material for him has always remained a mystery. Haskell came in for two pages of an general discussion of the Institute and its work in the magazine. W. H. McKeever of the University Extension division and his work for the better conditions for the children in Oklahoma is the subject of the third lawrence article. GIVE SICK PRIVILEGES Dr. Smith Outlines Added Student Hospital Accommodations In order to bring before the students of the University the advantages of the Student Hospital, and to clear up some details as to charges and fees made, added information has been provided to the health bulletin was published. There are no charges whatever for treatment at the hospital. Examinations, prescriptions and the filling of them are all attended to at the hospital. The building maintains its own dispensary and prescriptions are filled with no extra charge. If the patient shows signs of an or need for special care nursing he is turned in to bed, and carefully attended. His meals are free and if the case is serious a special nurse is provided free. The prime object of the Student Hospital, according to Dr. Smith who is in charge, is to prevent and check disease in its earliest stages, and calls after the patient is too sick to get to the hospital. In order to emphasize this point it has been found necessary to make an extra charge for all outside calls. If a student is sick his room is no place for him; proper care cannot be given there and by remaining at home the patient can take ship on his landlady, but also endangers the health of those about him. J. PLUVIOUS GOVERNS PLANS FOR BIG MEE Dr. Smith wishes to emphasize the fact that ordinary surgical operations, when performed at the hospital, are executed free of charge. This includes operations for tonsilitis and appendicitis. The success of the hospital this year is shown by the fact that almost two thousand dispensary calls have already been made since school began.

This is a graph of the first quarter of the Thanksgiving Day struggle with the Tigers, wherein the Tigers chewed upon the desperately struggling Javahawk by a score of 16 to 7. Dramatic Club to Give Play Wednesday Evening The chart shows how Kansas held the Tigers on their 1-yard line, and punted out of danger. Reds sniffing the safety man who received the扑en, into fumbling the ball, Jones recovering 10 yards back. Here, as in all other cases when the Jayhawkers tried linebucks, they failed to gain and were forced to punt. Bunn got away a twisty spiral which rolled out on the five-yard line. In Missouri's danger-zone, Lewis made a bad kick outside for five yards, and it was Kansas ball on the Missouri 10-yard line. The Kansas line failed to open the holes for the backfield men, and Bunn, after one unasuccessful attempt flipped the ball into the arms of the Speeding Lonborg who crossed the goal线 for a touchdown. Lonborg kicked goal, and the scoring of the game was over, as far as Kansas was concerned. "Miss Douton's Orchids" the first of the popular play series given by the Dramatic Club will be presented at 8 o'clock next Wednesday evening at the MacArthur Theater, Prof. Arthur MacMurray announced the cast. The cast as is follows: Cecely Bekpak, Julia McMullen; Bess Maynard, Julia Fitzgerald; Polly Winallow, Esther Agree; Owen Beknap, Bernard Worth; Gordon McAllister, Fred Milliken; Kenneth Moore, William Brueck. SOONERS COP VALLEY CHAMPIONSHIP NEATLY Won Four Games, Tied One- Kansas and Ames Tie for Third Final Standing in the Valley School W L T Pct. Oklahoua 4 0 1 .930 Missouri 5 1 0 .833 Kanada 3 2 0 .600 Ames 3 2 0 .000 Drake 3 0 1 .200 Washington 1 4 0 .200 Grinnell 0 2 1 .000 Aglesia 0 1 1 .000 The final standing of the teams gives Kansas a tie for third place with Ames, but Kansas has beaten Amos, has the edge on the third place in the NCAA playoffs putted possession of the top rung on the ladder with Missouri in a close second. The Tigers, however, had the edge on the other Valley schools in that they had a six game schedule, but Kansas played games. Missouri played games with Oklahoma, Ames, Drake, Washington, the Kansas Anglies and Kansas.Drake, Washington and the Anglies according to the standing had a fight for the last place. Kansas played the Anglies, Ames, Drake, and the Anglies. The Ames eleven started the season with their whirlwind finish of last year to live up to, and failed to do. The Tampa Bay Lions Campbell and Washington early in the season by big scores but could not keep up the pace with the stronger teams. Drake, according to advance dope, should have finished well up among the leaders, but when they drove a 7 to 7 tie out of Grimley, they were not looked upon as contenders for the title. Washington beat Grinnell fairly easily, but never during the season did Washington look dangerous, with the exception of the Missouri game, when the Tigers nosed the Pikers on by a 4 point lead, and then cripples in the Missouri camp kept the Tiger score down. The Kansas Aggies were supposed to have a fighting aggregation at the start of the season, but did not live up to the reputation. Kansas bent them. Missouri nosed them out 10 to 7, and Ames got a 17 to 10 win. Then when everybody threw back to the Norman and held the Sooners in a 7 to 7 tie, outplaying the southerners according to stories of the game. Grimnell did not have a chance to win anybody's title from the first, for the Grimnell called but for a three game schedule, and with two lost and one tied early in the season, they were not watched very closely. The winning of the title by Oklahoma was the one big upset in the valley dope. Dopesters had it fixed for Kansas and Missouri to fight for the title on Thanksgiving Day, but Bennie Owens produced without a doubt the strongest team in the valley, that walked away with the honors, while Kansas and Missouri fought for second place. Freshman Basketball To Start Wednesday First call for Freshman basketball men was issued today by 'Coach "Scrubb" Laslett. The aspirants for yearling honors will meet Wednesday and practice will start immediately, according to Laslett. Only men who played in the game from high school days are wanted this year. The freshman basketball squad is not, as is sometimes supposed, merely an organization for work. In addition to making a few trips with the Varsity team each year, the squad is a training institution for them and it's always a big help to new men in making the队 as sophomores if they have played on the freshman team, according to a basketball coach. KANSAS OUTCLASSED BY POWERFUL TIGERS Hale Played Stellar Game Until Injured Early in the First Half LINCOLN STAR FOR M. U. Nettles-Jones-Reid Combination Was Practically Invincible Sometime people like to hear an old story over again, even though it does bring bitter recollections. Every student in the University has read at least three of these last Thursday, some will not want the subject brought up again, and others will look for the Kannan side of the story. A true sportsman has seen by now that the Missouri team was not taken seriously, and were not obtained on flake plays. An outsider remarked after the game that while Kansas had a chance until Lewis botted the kick drop over the crossbar, it was then about 1 to 2. A successful touchdown in ful Missouri Tiger bound down the field. The ball went to the 1-yard line, and the Kansas backfield, backing the line, held the Missouri for downs. Bum kicked out of danger. Shortly afterwards, Bunn forced to take the ball up the field, the ball back of his own goal, and was tackled on the 5-yard line. Lewis attempted to kick off of danger, but the Kansas line broke through and he was forced to get the kick off in a hurry, as a result, it was a bad one. After the ball went into the 5-yard line. The Kansas backfield tried to dent the Missouri line, but failed, and then Bunn slipped a pass over right end to Lonborg who caught it behind the last white line, for the long Kansas score of the game. Lonborg and the end Kansas was on the defensive practically all of the time. In the second quarter Missouri had the hall down close to the Kansas goal, and not caring to take chances of losing it on downs again, come back in Kansas had done, but Lewis failed to kick goal, and the half ended with Kansas leading by one point. Early in the second half, the real Missouri football machine arrived, so to speak, and taking the ball in mid-field, started a drive that seemed inaccurate. It was only equal to the German drive of the spring of 1918. The play-by-play account reads: Lewis 8 yards, Lewis 12 yards, Lincoln 15 yards, Fullbright 10 yards, Purple 6 yards, Pounder Tiger backfield drove and plumged, nided by a line averaging 150 pounds, line through and around the Kansas line, from the Missouri 35-yard line down the field and over the fence, not scoring. It failed and not the score was 13 to 7. Still Kansas had a chance, if the men could only complete a series of passes and kick goal, the game would go to Kansas, and every loyal Kansas roster expected just this to happen. "We've done this," said the final quarter started, Kansas said, "Now watch Kansas pass 'em to death,' but the passing machine had a wrench in the cogs, in the form of the Lincoln-Lewis-Pulbright combination, and the Jayhawkers could not stop," he added, saddly. Until the final gun, however, there was not a sign of a let-up in the wonderful fight the team was (Continued on Page 4.) FOOTBALL TOLL IS 11 But Only Two Victims Were On College Teams Football claimed eleven victories during the 1920 season which closed with the Thanksgiving games, according to reports of the Associated Press. Of this number were members of Kansas teams, Jack Reeves, 25 years old, full backfall of the Kansas team. He was killed in an attack result of spinal injuries. Bernard Quigley of the Hays Normal freshman team died November 7, from a crushed chest. The majority of those losing their lives as a result of the game were high school students, only two being members of the regular college teams. A quarterback from the Missouri valley, though not members of the Missouri Valley Conference. A Rolla School of Mines player was the second one. This year's loss of life compares with the previous years as follows: 1016, six lives lost; 1818, ten; 1917, 1918; 1168 eight; and 1935, fifteen.
