County Club Will Get Scores of Tiger Game
Another instance of county club co-operation with the "home-folks" is a plan originating with the Cowley County Club where spectators at the Winfield-Akansas City City game Thanksgiving day are furnished with wire tracing from Columba and Jayhawkserver Tier Turkey battle.
The club is paying the small expense of this service, and the added pleasure given alumni and friends of the University through quicker results is expected to more than compensate the members.

MANY COUNTY CLUBS STARTED LAST WEEK
Clubs Include 29 Counties Others Will Organize
Twenty-nine county clubs have been organized since the campaign for organization was started by the committee in charge of the forming of county clubs and three more are in process of formation, which is an excellent showing when the many other activities which are claiming the students' attention are taken into consideration.
Through some misunderstanding on the part of some of the officers to the county clubs, the committee does not have the names of some officers, so they are not named in the names of his club officials in all at the Alumni Office in Ferris hall the evening or Tuesday morning, so that if there is any special activity to be entertained in a club, the membership holidays, the committee can get in touch with them.
Immediately: following the Thanksgiving holidays, the Committee will start another drive for the formation of more county clubs. Its objective being to have an organization for every county represented on the Hill, even though the county has but one person in the University.

SINGING AND DANCING
MAKE HIT AT FOLLIES
Choruses Were Well Trained and Leads Carried Parts Successfully
WERE BETTER THAN EVEN
More than two hours of rollicious, jolly merriment—and the 1921 edition of the K. U. Follies had passed into the realms of Jinhawkey history as "the best ever." Replete with singing and dancing which mourn many favored stars, the book is unusually successful for entertainment of its kind.
Verdict of Students is That
Follies Minus Vulgarity
Are Appreciated
Bill Lambert, of Herculian proportions, divided fun with a rather personal touch in a series of "impersonations." Lambert has a gravies with an unnatural range, and his impersonations were at times exacerbating.
From the time the curtainsparty to announce the opening number, 'Sandal Walk,' a delightful bit of backstage chorus work, the audience was in a good humor. Everything "went over big." Helen Kelden, who with Dorothea Engel诗《The new choral dance of dancer of real life》中的主角左羽 left nothing to be missed in her customary winnowing.
In "Three Men and a Girl," the three men, Will Pittman, Jimmy Blue and Burt Wheeler, furnished an effective background for Miss Frisbie, who could sing but the very personality of Miss Frisbie was more than enough to subjugate them. Miss Frisbie—well, the most famous woman in America—and a little bit more.
Engineer-Law Debate Fixed Soon
next came a "Jolly Jumble of Dancing and Singing" by the "Five Rollo-Polies", Margaret Stubbs, Teddie Couch, Mildred Fowler, Peggie Leavens, and Alice Carney. They were "cute", undeniably so, and their appearance was well appreciated.
“Kismet,” a chorus piece, was fortunate in having its lead Virginia Haynes. Miss Haynes has that effective personality just necessary for an Oriental setting—superiorness, fearlessness. The cost in this act were well planned, and the chorus contained some especially good voices.
Robert Griffin and Pauline-Llew make it "Polly." Doerr can sing. They proved it as leads in the ensemble of 'Love is a Game.' The stage setting for this number merited special approval. Just enough light was accorded the leads to add a delicate harmony by Mr. Griffin. Mr. Griffin was the ex-earned man in Lawrence at the conclusion of the number.
Nell Carrey and Farrisse Eaton performed the difficult task of pounding the ivories on two separate pianos at the same time. They were well received, as were Dottie Densinger, Sarah Jane Hindman, and
Mr. Freel Ridge of New York City, who is working under the anupies of the National Board of the Y. M. C. A. was in Lawrence Thursday and Friday, making a survey of the town to find what working groups are interested in educational work in the city, four workers are eager to have classes in beginning English, Mechanics, and Drawing.
Mr. Rindge, who did important educational work among Government Industrial employees during the war, smoke before several classes, Friday. Mr. Rindge was offered fifty students have offered to do some work along educational lines.
National Y. M. C. A. Worker Addresses K. U. Students
A joint meeting of the two committees for the arranging of the Engineer-Law debate, will be held Tuesday. These committees met last week, but no decision was reached. The committee is forced to answer to the question and as to the time of the debate will be reached at the meeting Tuesday.
