THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
FALSE HOPES RAISED BY INCORRECT REPORT
Dr. Alter Has Received Many Inquires About His Research Work
The erroneously stated and premature report in the Topeka newspaper of Dr. Dinmore Alter's discoveries in astronomical fields as related to his research was based on observations for a period as far ahead as four years, has worked a great deal of damage, both to the research work itself, and with the people who have had their hopes raised, without the evidence of scientific fact for a foundation.
A doctor in a neighboring state nurses Dr. Alter that he is entirely correct in his theories. "I have noticed the same things myself in the course of my work," she says. U.S. Weather Cooperative Observer U.S. Weather Cooperative," he said.
In every mail, Dr. Alter receives letters in regard to the article, from different parts of the United States.
A widow on a hundred and sixty acre farm in the north-west writes: "I am a widow, who five long years ago left my home in Chicago, and investing all my savings in this farm, moved here. We have not had a crop in an acre. In December, we wrote you to ask for a printed copy of these reports that I may study and be prepared for the coming season."
Other interesting letters, containing requests for assistance or information, from poor farmers or prosperous business men are received in these cases. This erroneous impression has been created thru-out the country.
Dr. Alter is preparing a mimeographed reply to these letters of inquiry.
PIGSKIN PATTER
By "Cap" Garvin
We were not able to get the name of that freshman who was playing center, but we will wager some of the effects of his effective teaching.
Kreuger, freshman, backfield man, was showing up well in last night's workout.
The freshman squad of this yea cannot be said to equal that of last season, but there are several promising players who will with some more polish develop into good Varsity material for next year.
Lefty Farrell got away good from half, going through holes for a goodly number of yards.
Every one in a while we could hear Serubby putting out a search warrant for his linemen who were running interference. They just would insist on running interference without the man carrying the ball.
Illinois upset some dope Saturday when they trounced Drake 44 to 6. Kannas plays the Bulls on Saturday during Hawk conference game of the season.
From now on the Kansas schedul
ceases to be one of practice games
and comes to the real work of the sea
son. Drake comes here this week.
Ams pays us a visit at Ammond's
journey to Alabama October 30 and
to Alabama November 6. Then back
November 13 for a cornhusking bee.
The results of the game Saturday can be considered from several angles. One is that it did the saddq good to be held to a close score. It helps to keep down overconfidence, and then, it is good practice.
And say, while we are mentioning
it, the Ames cross country team is working every day for that meet we have schedule with them when they bring their football squad down here.
The open season is on for football dope to be upset. For every year the dopesters have everything fixed only to have their little playhouses torn down. And who ever saw a football season run true to form.
Boxing Instructor Wants Men in Some Classes
"I have room for some more men in my 2:30 and 3:00 'clock boxing classes on Tuesday and Thursday," said "Pete" Goss today. "Tell them I don't intend to develop any professionals, but the knowledge of boxing gained will give any man greater self-confidence and make him more sure of himself, even if he never gets in a scam in his life."
Gross has had considerable professional experience, having at one time fought with Morris Lux, welter.weight champion of the champions.
Although Gross has been in forty battles, he holds the record of being knocked off his feet only once.
A man can be judged by the books he reads. If you never read, it should be easy for you to estimate yourself.
