NUMBER 52
FINAL CURTAIN DRAWN
ON McCOOK GRIDIRON
SQUAD IN PRIME CONDITION
Varsity Goes Through Fins Workout on Home Field Before Big Game
Leave For Tiger
The last practice of the season.
Yesterday afternoon the Varsity went through their final workout on McCook field before starting the trip for "Somewhere in Missouri" this morning. Out of the United States over into Missouri someplace, the sound has gone.
Jayhawkers Have No Cripple and No Allbis, And Are Ready for Hard Game
Most of the afternoon was spent in running down under punts, with some broken field running, and a bit of signal practice, and a game against McCook Field. The remainder of the season will start of two days quiet over in the East semifield, and then it is understood, Coach Allen has scheduled a game with some Missouri teams, at Columbia, Missouri.
There are no cripples on the Jay-hawkeye sound, and the men are in the best physical conditions they have been at any time this year. Both of them would be moving before boarding the train: "We have no alibi to offer. The team showing the best exhibition of headwork and the most fight is going to win this game. Do not let anybody kid you students into believing that the boys are going against as great odds as they have bucked at any time this year. Just because we hold Nebraska, is no reason to think we are going to romp through Missouri by a third downback," said Coach Allen CZ.
Missouri has been saving most of her good men since the Kansas Aggie game, and Kansas has had to use all of her good men in every game this season. In every Kansas-Missouri contest, both teams have played "over their heads" so to speak. This was the case with Missouri in late year, and the Tiger this year has been quietly lying in wait for the past two weeks for the Jayhawker to put in an appearance on Rollins Field. Missouri is probably the best team probably be the greatest crowd of loyal Missouri rooters in the history of the game at Columbia.
Ben Cherrington, International Committeeman Visits K.U.
Y. M. LEADER HERE
Kansas has some experienced men on the squad but certainly not as many with as much experience as the Tiger. A man has not played football until he was a senior fanns until he has at least gone through three or four seasons.

Columbia Special Will Leave at 11 o'clock Wednesday
The special train to Columbia for the Kansas-Missouri game will leave Kansas City Mo. about eleven o'clock Wednesday evening on the Wabash railroad. The students may leave for Kansas City any time as there will not be a special train from Lawrence to Kansas City.
The special will leave Columbia Thursday evening about ten or eleven o'clock and will arrive in Kansas City the next morning about seven o'clock.
The fare from Lawrence to Columbia and return will be $1.50. As the train is a special one the students will be saved the inconvenience of having to change cars between Kansas City and Columbia students will have to do, besides making a lot of noise, it will be on to the special in Kansas City about eleven o'clock and get off in Columbia the next morning. The price of admission for the first $1.50 and $2.50 for the side bleachers and the end bleachers respectively.
"It's getting colder every day, and no one notes this more than a man who is trying to blow a horn for an hour or so early in the morning," said one of the band men this morning after the rally.
Band Appeals for Coats To Wear to Columbia
This is the reason that the band has asked to borrow a supply of heavy top coats. The regulation navy pea-jacket is the best thing available for matching the band uniform, and several of the men who wear it have been asked to wear that about 25 more are needed for the Columbia trip. Little response has been given to the request, a band man said today.
Alpha Kappa Psi, national commercial fraternity, will hold a special meeting at the Phi Delta Theta house Tuesday night.
TAKE A KANSAN HC
TAKE A KANSI
The issue is that the Kans is a FABER-Monteil issue, primarily; it contains the kind of news that will make the state sit up and take notice. The two-page Stadium-Union insert tells all about the proposed memorials and the cam-paign.
To boast the memorial drive, 1,500 extra copies of the Kansan were printed today. They will be distributed free to stu-
ters who call at the Kansan office either today or tomorrow.

Joint Council to Control Drives For Raising Money
The presidents of the Men's and Women's Student Councils reported that the Councils had approved the recommendations made by the Council.
The regular monthly meeting of the Joint Committee on Student Affairs was held last Saturday morning at the Women's rest room in Praez Hall.
1. That no drives for money from students be made without express approval of the Joint Council.
2. That provisions be made by the Student Councils for enforcement of regulations provided for in the constitutions and bylaws, in regard to the sale of tags, tickets, or similar means of raising money form students.
The Committee on University Entertainment also reported. The work of this committee is to gather suggestions in regard to students enter into entertainment programs and raise money for purposes approved by both Student Councils. Some of the entertainments will be put on by students, others such as high grade theatrical performances may be brought here by student organizations.
A suggestion has been made that interest in original play writing by students be stimulated by offering them the best play produced by students.
Members of the committee are Catherine Oder, Mary Olsen and Claude Voorbes from the student body, and Miss Josephine Burnham and Prof. Arthur MacMurray from the faculty.
The committee was instructed to continue its work by conferring with organizations that might be interested in such entertainments.
The Council of Religious Workers, composed of the representatives of the various churches, the Y. M. C. A., and Westminster Hall will meet in Myers Hall for a luncheon at 5:30 to discuss and take action on the establishing of the University of which University crisis will be given for Bible study.
The gathering will be addressed by Dr. O. D. Foster of Chicago, who represents the council of church boards which is composed of sixteen denominations. Action will be taken at this meeting by members of Boyer, Presbyterian student pastor, the prospects of getting the Bible College are very favorable.
Discuss Establishment Of Standard Bible Study
"The Next Steps between the University and the Church Colleges in Bible Credit" is the subject on which Professor Engle will speak at a meeting of the Kansas Council of Church Services at Witchcraft Friday and Saturday.
K. U. Professor to Speak Before Church Council
Through the efforts of Professor Engle, the university was allowed three hours advanced credit for Bible work. The colleges must realize the value of this work, and the importance of this step.
The Council of Church Colleges is an organization of the denominational colleges of Kansas, all of which offer a movement for advanced Bible study.
STUDENT MEMORIAL
TOTAL IS $186,203
Women Average Pledges of $4
Each—Men Come Through
With $57.00
470 STILL UNSIGNED TODAY
Faculty Contributions Slow,
Hope to Raise $200,000
From Students Alone
The exact count of the Memorial pledges of the student drive, complete save for 470 absentees and recalcitrant who have not yet pledged, was announced at 2 o'clock this afternoon by 8:30 a.m. by Registrar George O. Foster.
The figures on the student collection.
Amount given by women, $53,611.00
Amount given by men, $132,592.00
Total, $186,203.00.
Average, per student, 53.
Average, per student, 45.
Average,男, $57.
Women, not subscribed, 180.
Men, not subscribed, 290.
Total, not subscribed, 470.
Drive managers this afternoon were inclined to be pessimistic of reaching by the end of the month goal of $200,000. The goal was raised, they say, because every student had not contributed, and the last 470 subscribers will continue to be solicited until next Tuesday when the drive closes, in the hope of bringing up the average, and topping the $200,000.
The averages above are compiled on the basis of the entire student attendance of 3500.
Faculty contributions are coming in slowly, but are expected to total above $20,000. The student drive, however, is entirely separate, and is expected by the students to go above the $20,000 mark without adding in the contributions from the instructors.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley, leaving for his Salina trip yesterday, expressed himself as delighted with the splendid showing, but stated that to put the drive over the mark would require a significant accomplishment of the students in helping the University in proving to the state its need of help.
THE NEW FOOTBALL
The following poem by Walt Mason was written by him for the Kaanas, and was prince d in tihte souvenir Christmas number, in 1907—the year before the famous All-victorious Kanas in those days lacked most of the rules prohibiting "roughing" and bone-breaking tactics which are in force now.
Gather up those mortal fragments, laying loosely o'er the lea; take his lungs from off the gatepost and his backbone from the tree; let us have no wargish vantage from the roof, down the door; gather up the toes and fingers, ere we place them in the tomb. See his legs are idly standing, upside down there in the mud; take a sheet of bloating skin to cover the blood. Ah, that one so young and handsome, should be scattered far and near, with his nose upon the grandstand, on the entrance gate an ear! Ah, that one so young and handsome, should be scattered far and near, with his nose upon the grandstand, on the entrance gate an ear! Ah, that one so young and handsome, should be carried on a dustpan, when the weary day is done! Place his whiskers on a platter, and his vitals in the bowl; for the funnel, which the no glue can make him whole—Walt Mason.
The Kappa Sigma freshman were defeated by the upperclassman Saturday morning by a score of 5.12. The Kappa Sigma pledges challenge any fraternity pledges to a football game any Saturday morning.
Miami County Club will meet tonight at 7:30 o'clock at the Acomas house, 1225 Oread.
Band to Give Concerts At Kansas City Schools
Kansas City and Missouri high schools will hear the K. U. band, and perhaps Chancellor Lindley, too, tomorrow when they will stop off on their way to Columbia for the semi-national "Boost K. U." convocations at the high schools. Another speaker may take the chancellor's place. It has been customary for the mayor to grant privilege to Kansas when the Jayhawks play at Columbia, and to Missouri when the Tirers come here.
The band will leave here at 7:30 o'clock, arriving at the Kansas City, Kansas high school at 9:25, where reunion Association will meet it. After it ends, they will play there, the men will be taken to Central high school, on the Missouri side, arriving about 10:45 o'clock. They will probably lunch at the cafeteria there before proceeding to Westerville, where a 2 o'clock concert is planned.
Charles P. Woodbury, secretary of the Alumni Association, will be in charge of the day's entertainment.
"RIP ROARING" PARADE TO BE STAGED IN K. C.
Will Organize in Down Town District and March to Union Station
Plans are being made to stage a "rip roaring" parade in Kansas City immediately after the special from Lawrence to Kansas City arrives at the stadium. A track was given out by *Sandy* 'Winor, cheerleader, this morning. According to *Sandy*'s"We are going to start tup' in that old Missouri Tiger at the state line and we are not going to help him he bullers 'NUF' load and loud."
"The plan now is to organize in the down town district and, under the leadership of the K. U. band and the KuKu Klau to parade out to the Union Station spillin' the regular old fightng Jayhawk entrenching himself. Chuck Cawley, Jay Hawk" So the bleachers at Rollins Field will shake as if in an earthquake. Nothing is to be left out of the parade. Every Jayhawk on the train should make preparations to get in the pre-victory march and let the Tiger know that besides a fightin' bug, you are in 'howling mob' on the way to help give that "Tail" the hardest twist that was ever twisted.
The special from Lawrence to Kansas City city leaves the Santa Fe station at Lawrence at 8:40 o'clock Wednesday, and will arrive in Kansas City shortly after 10 o'clock. This shows an hour and a half to give the parade before the special leaves Kansas City. The special plans will be completed on the train and additional information on the "Big March" can be obtained from Sandy Winsor and his crew of jimnear garrillers at that time.

"UNITY OF THOUGHT WILL BEAT TIGERS"
A stranger was wandering around Fraser, when a squad of Follies chorusmen were trying out their new look and found intensely for a moment. Then
"Who made the touchdown?" he asked.
So Says "Phog" Allen as He Leaves with Team for Missouri
EARLY RALLY DREW MANY
Jayhawkers Will Arrive in Jungleland Only An Hour Before Game
"If the unity of thought and support that brought these two thousand people out to see the Kansas team on its journey prevails through the team, nothing can defeat it Thursday."
That's what Coach F. C. Allen, director of athletics, and head football coach, told the student body of the University at the leave-taking of the Jayhawk warriors for "someplace in Missouri," where they will spend the summer with the Tiger for their stalk of the Tiger in his lair at Columbia.
The women turned out en mansie. The men turned out nearly as good a percentage. Thr railleyers, summoned by the shrill notes of "revelle" at an auction, met Santa Fe station square to overflowing. First hour classes were called off by the chancellor for the occasion, and few were the laggards who overslept; the chill air of the morning were evident everywhere.
The first wave of a "we'll beat Missouri" telepathic flood of thought-missiles sped through the 250 miles to where they arrived on the scene. Cheers and songs enlivened the time until the train arrived, and the twenty-nine Jayhawkers, with their two cantelet equipment, were loaded on the train.
After Dr. Allen's speck the mob formed into orderly columns of foats and marched up Seventh Street to the corner of Ninth and Massachusetts streets behind the K. U. Band. The parade, packed close to gather, extended more than three blocks. After entering the classes, began the morning work.
The Jayhawkers will arrive in Columbian, just an hour before the time of the game. They will descend upon the jungleland and seek to drive out a few of the hostile snakes than 10,000 whom will be Kansas fans. Turkey Day this year will be the Homecoming Day for the Tigers, and they will be more than ever upon their mettle to pluck the Jayhawker of the noble bird over the chalklines of Rolls Field.
The men who left, besides Coaches Allen, Laslett, and Lindsey, and Trainers Binney and Black, are the men who will form the forefront of the phalanx against the Missourians, and are as follows:
Ends.-McDonald, Bell, Reid, Wilson. Tackles—Captain Nettles, Sandefur, Davis, Higgins, and Meeker. Guards—Woody, Jones, Smith, Frakker. Quarterbacks—Jonborg, Bunn. Halves—Mandville, McAdams, Johnson. Fullbacks—Simon, Allison, Welch.
Organized Bumming is Now Thing of the Past
Whether the Bummadiers pay their way to the Missouri game or not, there will be about five hundred present to carry out the Thundering The thousand pepp program on Rollins Field Thinking Day. It has been handed down from the chief bummadier that nearly 100 men have already started for Columbia vin the car entrance in Jacksonville and signified their intentions of being on hand when the tick off takes place.
"Organized bumming is a thing of the past as far as the bummadders are concerned, said Floyd E. Welsh last night at a meeting held on the Hill. The organization does not propose to support the various athletic teams this year b y taking adventure training or training that it has in the form o fvery man in it to be present at the game whether he has sufficient funds to pay his fare or not. Wherever there is a will there is a way, it is said.
