Two million dollars would be an exclusive fund, according to Gerard, the first witness before the committee today. He added he would turn back the money if he got as much as 85%. He said he would have retired. Gerard said that Bernard N. Larach would serve to on the committee but declined, and that efforts were being made to form Democratic fund-raising organizations all over the country. Kenyon asked about Tammany's activities.

SPOKE TO ENGINEERS
Chancellor Lindley and Captain Burdick Made Talks
Chancellor Ernest H. Lindley spoke to an assembler of engineering students at Marvin Hall at 10:30 o'clock this morning.
He particularly stressed the need of technical training, the necessity of clear English, the problem of getting acquainted with the best types of men on the campus and the value of training the last point he gave an illustration of the complaint of a great eastern university that many of its graduates went forth with their degrees to fill their own pockets instead of having the idea to serve mankind. The state spends $300 a year in college for university, he said, and naturally expects some return for the money spent.
Announcements were made con- cerning the various engineering societies open to the students of the de- apartment after the Chancellor's talk. After the meeting the freshmen were told of the advantages of the Reserve Officer Training Corp by Capt. H. L. Burdick; and a sora- neal recognition addition of the R. O. T. further said to Governor Henry Allen. He further said that unless 92 men en- rolled before Saturday the three u- nets, infantry, engineers and coast artillery, would not be possible at the University.
"Heavy Men Out for Kansas Does Not Mean Heavy Eleven"—Allen
SPEED AND CRIPPLES CLOUD K.U. FOOTBALL
NO REGULAR QUARTER YET
Director of Athletics Advises Fans to Wait Until End of Season to Get Total
"There are some heavy men out for the Kansas football squad this year, but that does not mean that Kansas will put a heavy team in the field. If the light men can get away, they are the man who will make the team. The new green men will be used in the earlier games rather than risk the old men who made good last season. Some of the old men have must win invaluable play by previous opponents that can be saved for the conference games, where the old fight must be present."
Part of Dr. Forrest C. Allen's football policy is embodied in the above declaration. All of the things that have to be watched are not covered, but many points of interest to fans should be added to the team's policy are shown.
NETTLE'S HAS BAD KNEE
Sixth candidates for the Varsity squad reported for practice Monday evening, and more would have been out if it had been possible to suit them up.
cripples are plentiful, too numerous, on the squash this year. Seven old letter men are out, and three are almost unplayable for play at this stage of the game. Wint Smith, 200-pound guard, was held out of scripimage Tuesday by the defending champion "Dustu" Lonberg, who has been sick at his home in Horton with a pair of bad knees, made his first appearance in a uniform Monday; but no one knows just how long he will remain in shape, as his knee kept him out of several games inst year. Captain Nettie is also bothered with her arm, which he kept him out of several games inst year. Captain Nettie is also bothered with her arm, which he kept him out of several games inst year. He will very probably not be used until late in the season.
Pep at Convocation
STILL SEARCH FOR PILOT
The quarterback position is still up in the air. John Bunn (Arizona) has Harley Little, most experienced of the men trying out for the pilot position, is ported to be troubled with indigestion and heart trouble. Other men are trying out for the directing position, but they are for the most part green, and one eye in shape to handle the Varsity in a big game, say the coaches.
Questioned as to the total number of points that Kansas might score during the year, Dr. Allen advised the fans to take the number after each game and total them at once. "After the game is over we will talk about how good a team we have."

Anyone of foreign birth is eligible to membership. In some places, students of American birth, who intend to participate in a service work abroad are admitted.

Hope, Out of School
The athletic circles of the University are buzzing over the perplexing problem of the missing guard who returned to a blue practice jersey for the first time in three years, last week.
autumnite, his fraternity brothers in Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and his mate on the varsity square and "K" rub; he are frantically endeavoring to get him to return. Nothing is known of him. He gives no reason for leaving, but merely packed up and left.

FIGHTIN' KANSAS MEN IN FIRST SCRIMMAGE
First Team Under Harley Little Smashes Practice Squad In First Scrimmage
MORRISON KNOCKED OUT
Emporia Normal to be Team's First Victim—McCook Field The Seene
The Kansas football squad is a fighter's bunch. Ask unbelly, for more than a thousand roots worsened the first stratification of the Jayhawks grudron squad last night in a preseason game against eleven "taking on" the third team for a period of more than half an hour late in the afternoon.
Being members of the same squad did not abate the fury of the first attack one whit, for the first team, piloted by Harley Little, with Mandelveil, the Simon *p* #1. Lonborg made up in the rest of the backfield, smashed again, went through, and ran around, the lighter line with remarkable speed and power. The excellent condition of the team with which the men held up, only one man "Rod" Morrison, third team back being knocked out. Morrison received a smashing that ended his work for the afternoon, but the full extent of his injury is not yet known.
Could GO THROUGH SANDFEUR
The fast third team held the first eleven to small gains, however, exerted great pressure. They passed on. A later attempt at passing, "Arnie", Bell, right end on the third team ripped the ball from the air, slipped through the first-team backs, and got away for a 'touchdown' in Wood as quartback, carried the ball during the remainder of the scrimmage, and van their formations against the heavy line with remarkable smoothness and speed. Several efforts to slip a runner, with interception, allowed to tackle. Sanfeur, failed 'nugoriously', on the scrimmage line, however.
Three other elevenes practiced on the field, and sixty freshman labored on Hamilton Field getting in shape to tackle the varsity men in scrimmage the last of this week, or the first of next week, under the direction of Coach Limsey. Captain Harold D. Burdick, of the military department, has volunteered his skills when he busy directing the movements of the fourth squaw through its signal practice.
:PURGEON OUT NOW
New men on the field during the practices of Monday and Tuesday, who have been eagerly awaited by the football fans, are Triastin Spurgeon, heavy half from last year's freshman team, and former Pittsburgh Bulls player, Riley Borg, two letter man at end, and Valley right wing man last fall with "Scrubby" Laaslett, Roy Pringle, "Andy" McDonald and several others from last year's freshman squad, who have just this week arranged for the games.
Practice early in the afternoon included more than an hour of warming up signal practice, peep talks, and work on the charging machine quadrupled. The team under the direction of Line Coach Lassett threatened destruction of a new pneumatic dummy by their vicious tackling, while the backfield was deprived of practice after the imagined Missouri Tigers in fierce manner.
MAY SCRIMIMAGE INDIAN
hard practice, with short scrimages,
will continue through the week. The Haskell Indians are try-
ing to win against the team with the dayhawk squad sometime
next week, but nothing definite has yet been settled. The first game,
with the Emporia Presnals, on MeCook field, a week from next Saturday,
is expected to be the first "definite" line that fans will get on the
work of their favorites. Coach Allen is expected to put into practice his
team's strong defense, expected to see the theory of a replaceable backfield,
and fans are expected to see eight or ten of the first string backs used for
at least a few minutes, in the initial conflict.
Debaters to Come

Plain Tales Fron the Hill
It is rather strange why all of the girls who have accepted pins from the Hill men always lose them or else give them back. Anyway, something happens to them before many weeks of the new school year have slipped by. Already many of the fair damsels who have prided themselves on "his pin" laid it on the shelf and are now ready to entertain any motions or emotions, that might come before the house.
A Certain Professor who prides himself on being able to sleep late in the morning and still make his first class on time was very much angered this morning. He says that it is all right for his next door neighbor to up bring and early and mow the lawn but when his next door neighbor arouses him from his peaceful slumber at four-thirty in the morning, he asks why he thinks that that is carrying things too far. This Professor is contemplating a consultation with some one versed in the "morning" customs.
it is rumored about the Campus that the rather short fellow who was pinned for speeding during rush week is mourning the loss of a valuble fountain pen. In fact the fountain pen in question represents more than the average pen because that was the only change that this particular fellow received when the judge pronounced the sentence.
Already the old girls on the Hill, especially the last year Freshmen have felt the gradual decline in the number of telephone calls for which they were so accustomed in years gone by. We will all have to learn by experience that our best year is the yearling year.
