GOSH-DINGDEST RALLY
WAS HOWLIN' SUCCESS
Last Night's Jubilee Was Hot test in History—Women Joined for First Time
BONFIRE WHOOPED EM UP
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS$, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1920.
Was Orderly, But Somehow AI Present Had a Fine Time— Daters Were Sought
It was the go-nand-dingest li'l o' rally that was ever pulled off in the history of K. U., bar none in the memory of even the oldest student. Little avails it to attempt to put down the happenings in more black and white, for the spirit of fright and victory was virtuous but out of the hands of whoshooped up in the gym and on North College Hill last night. The campus however, lays down the law, and the rally went something like this—
Oh-h-h. BOY!! !!
WOMEN SHOULD
the thousand masculine men, and the thousands masculine of the populist and most gingery of the fair sex—believe you me, dear reader, they were fair—ralled to the call of Cheerleader Sandy Winson, and had the whooping, jollest time that bloomin' little mound of earth called Oread ever saw. Everyone of consequence was there, so why tell you about it? Suffice it to say that procession, marching in formation, extended from back with to Fourteenth Street in Mississippi—that it was an orderly, jolly mob, and everything went off as scheduled, as smoothly as the castor-oiled bearings of a racing automobile.
BAND AND FACULTY PRESENT
Vice-chancellor Burdick, acting for Chancellor Lindley who was in Kansas City, S. J. Hunters was in help inaugure the first KU. U. football team, away back in 1800, J. C. Coleman, the "King" football team, Allen guiding genius of "Kansas" athletic destinies, Football Captain "Father Time" Nettels, and Van, the Animal Man, the unequalled football prognosticator, all gave short and spirited talks to the students in the gym just after the rally opened.
on "Van" refused to make his usual prognostication—he pointed out the football squad of forty-seven and said his prophecy was before them.
KANSAN GOT IN TOO
The K. U. Band was there, too. They were there with their leader, Mr. Herb with the spirit of "going through that line" and they put it into their music. played excerpts for many fighting spirits, audience, or rather their supporters, rose right royally to the lead of the band.
ANNAH
The Dutchman was there. No bragging about ourselves at all, but the most valuable and appreciated copy of Thursday's issue was the one that kindled the fire under the big pile of boxes and timbers on North America.
The organization was wonderful. After the first few cheers and talks the cheerleaders ined up the "Thundering Thousand"—both the women and the men, in four "columns of squads," each the length of the hall. When the speeches were over, girls and girls on the way in a good-matured, orderly march to North College Hill—the Rock Chalk Pile.
As the flames of the conflagration the cheerleaders lined up the "Thun-of boxes lit up the sky, the lide of Rock Chalks. A new locomotive yell, and a "snappers" call to terror into calculated the.fill of normalities, went off when it is zip. More good natured talks, tails, and mixing kept the pop going until the fire, renewed several times by the box brigade, died down.
Several hundred wong down Oread. A man with a date was discovered, to the great glee of the ralliers, and the gent with the patent-leather hair shine ran a half-block gaudlet of paddles. More joy to the eager! A hill cafe was visited. Young men were discovered talking to girls therein, but spaced far apart away from them, fair to mingle with others in search of "dateres." And was wel for them they did, and got away with it.
More than all these things, what can any rally do?
A meeting of the Jurisprudence Club will be held at the Pi K. A. House at 8 o'clock Thursday November will be "The Irish Question."

ENGINEER'S SPACE
ENGINEER 8 SPACE

Written by Timothy Engineering.
I seen by Boden Transit, e24.
Why I Am Taking Engineering
I want to take surveying
And on it land, do out
my mounted telescope
And watch the girls at play
I want to take some drawing,
And paint for magazines,
The boys in school,
And sweet Irish colleges.
I've got to have some shop
work.
Like forgery, you know,
So I can earn my way through
school
By cashing checks of "snow."
