NEW SONG MAKES HIT AT RALLY LAST NIGHT
Ladies Are Redeeming Feature —Two Women to Every Man Present
BURN DUCK—BEAT DRAKE
Rally to Learn Song and Cremate Drake on Tennis Courts Saturday
"Rolling on a Kansas woman."
One hundred University women and others inducted into the new Kansas song last night in the rally at Robinson gymnastium. All pronounced it good. They all sang it, too.
"I am a jay, jay, jay, jay-hawk,
"Riding on a Kansas gale."
Say, folks, it's a swell song. It's got pop and jazz and makes you want to do the shimmy, also stretch the lung capacity a little wider than you ever did before. If this scribe were a football player, it would incite him at least to seriously maim any mole-skin clad hopes of other schools which tried to doubt the supremacy of Kansan anything, from football to fossils.
Come to McCook field early Saturday. An hour early, on the tennis courts, Deacon Winsor will conduct the funeral rites for a "duck." Drake will be dressed in a men's suit, however, so the whole menagerie will probably be cremated.
The Scotchman who leads us in layer, the Dewin Winner, we mean, wants every student to "get next" to his new song, "Hoot man, it'll make e proud to be a Jayhawk-r" *r* is going to be. This is the way e go next:
The women "made" the rally. About twice as many of them dared the elements, which were not threatening, anyway, than did the men. The rally was a big success, too. For thirty minutes everyone had the time of their lives. They say so themselves. And when they left, they marched off the campus together, singing, hooping and excitedly talking about the news, not the talk about the fashion, nor the Follies, nor the "cooty motor car,"—they were talking about football and Kansas.
Bring the words of the new song,
clipped out of the Kansan. We hate
nmooooo ommmnii A: n0-oooooio
to intrude ourselves at a football
game, but that's the simplest way to
get the words.
The game is called at 3 o'clock
the funeral pyre on the tennis courts
will be ignited about 2:15.

Kansas Only State Not Building Roads
A recent investigation of all the states in the Union relative to their activities in road construction, shows Kansas as the only state that does not build roads. There has been a general impression that Kansas, Florida, and Georgia were the only states that did not build or aid in road-making. The facts of the case, according to the recent report, are that all of the states excepting Kansas have built roads so generally all of them are supplying their road funds from their automobile license fees.
An amendment to the state constitution will be voted on at the election, November 2, which says that the state shall pay twenty-five per cent of the cost of permanent roads in each county.
VARSITY FROLICKED O'ER THE GOLF LINKS
Practice Last Night Was On the Greensward—Wouldn't Cut Up McCook
The only scrimage that the variaity got Thursday afternoon was a fight to keep both feet on the ground at the same time, for right on through the mind and they went into a battle of mind. The ball in tieing in from the ball and putting, running down under the ball and spiking was gotten. The only way the variaty knew that there was a rain that the coaches scattered around is to think so that McCook must not be marred for the games this week-end.
The men and their uniforms were rather of an earthhair hue when they were finally shooed to the sheds at six o'clock.
Most of the afternoon work-out was given over to the working out of new plays and the perfecting of the old ones. The forward passing was not forgotten although the ball was rather slippery.
The freshmen did not practice Thursday afternoon, as there was no scrimmage for them with the varsity and the mud going ability of the first year man was doubted. They were given a night off. There no battle for them to fight Saturday afterward; they would start in some real work next week, scrimmaging some of the stiffness out of the varsity.
The varsity will go through some light work today, to keep them from getting stiff, and to drill more on the signal and team work. There will be no more scrimmage until the game tomorrow.
