FOOTBALL MEN TOOK FIRST SIGNAL WORK
Practice Friday was Divided Into
Four Elevens—Simple

Burdick Coaching
The nth degree of hard work in preliminary gridiron practice was reached last week by the Jayhawk football squad under the direction of Coaches Allen, Lindsay and Laslett. Starting the first practice Wednesday with a strenuous two hours of limbering up, falling on the ball, and other muscle-tiring factors sixty-five minutes after afternoon to eight pounds lighter in weight, and immeasurably better in condition.
Men who had worked in the harvest during the summer, and boasted of their biceps development, found from Dr. Allen's setting-up exercises that some leg muscles were mired in their inner conditioning of the foot. The team was confronted with the eight letter men who are trying for positions, dug in with a will, and worked vehemently to gain the approval of the coaches.
LITTLE PLUGGED FIRST ELIMINATES
The candidates were divided into four eleven Friday afternoon and run practice, two in the regular practice. Hardy Little hold the quarter position on the first eleven, "Prux" Wilson plotted the second, and Mary Wood the third. Doctor Allen; Coaches Lindsey and Lawslett, and Coach Terry have shaped material through the simpler life: formations and plays.
MORE PRACTICE STUNT:
The first eleven was composed of ends, Iry and McDonald; tackles Saunders and Jones; guards, Smith and Fricker; center, Hart; quarter Little, halves, Mandeville and MeAdams, fulback, Simons. The second eleven, slightly lighter, was fully as fast as the vambur, and was comical. He was a tackler, tackles, Hinkle and Hurgus, center Arthur and Davidson, guard, Wulf quarter, Wilson, halves, Harrison and Allison, fulback, Webb.
Earl Endicott, lineman from last year's freshman team, applauded a muscle by injurious tackling to end an elbow hit that will be back in practice this week.
MORE PRACTICE STUDY!
Victoria onaglouts against a training tandem in naval training since Thursday, and Cox Allen has developed a system of "broken-field boots" a foot in height, and six or eight feet apart, through which the men run, stepping first through a box on side of the path, and then in one on the other side. A charging machine will be the attention of its backfield men.
WILL SCRIMMAGE SOON
The squands last week averaged forty-five each day, but more than sixty-five have checked out suits and all will be out every day this week, according to Dr. Allen, who said Saturday that, with the addition of Captain Harold L. Burdick, as a voluntary assistant to the coach staff, that five or six eleven would be practicing on and Hamilton fields every night.
Candidates for the freshman check out equipment Saturday, and will take the field for the first time this afternoon, under the tutoring of Coach Lindsey. Their first struggle in scrimmage will probably come Wednesday or Thursday, against the Varsity.

Dialects in English
Dialects in English
A survey just completed shows that 33 languages are in daily use in New York, not including three or more of the eight highbrow English, lowbrow English and the R-less variety, besides the strange, inexplicable cockney kind which gives all "er" sounds the sound of "ol." We say inexplicable, for we have never seen explained why in certain New York vernacular bird is a "bodd" and curse is "coise."
Sometimes, somewhere, that emulation must have begun—whether on the Bowyer or in Harlem or even on Broadway, nobody seems to know. Was it in existence in 1860? The New York literature of that era does not seem to so indicate. The converse of the boottails and juvenile street sweepers of the mild and indolent children of those days almost a Sunshine school diction. The "coise" has swept over Manhattan since then. It came with the melting pot, and may be par of it, for all we know.
The United States is large enough to contain a number of dialects, and thereby it loses contain them, so that one's genesis is pretty well distinguished by his speech. We know New England by its "loffing" haugh and they know us by our "lafffing" one. "Akk" in southern are about the "a" in "hake", while still remaining "ok" in Massachusetts.
Our e pluribus unum language is truly that kind, and like to become more pluribus as the country grows older. St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Action Better Than Talk
Toronto, Out. is showing initiative in the housing problem. Not only is she appointing a commission to study the question, in approved cabins, but she is planning to build 500 houses for sale or rent, and give bona up to 50 per cent to those who wish to build. Her scheme is funded by private investors who have been bona fide residents of the city for the last two years.
It is apparent that the Toronto is not satisfied with the handling of the problem by private interests and her dissatisfaction is echoed practically all over the world. Profitering landlords have waxed rich, during the housing shortage, at the expense of the rent payer. To allow them to continue to do so would be a encourage injustice. Toronto has taken note of this condition, and intends to put it up against it. In effect they will be appointed by other municipalities, who may new look to her for a way out of one of the most perplexing tangles—Christian Science Monitor.
Hot Stff
A preacher was describing the "bad place" to a congregation or metal cadets.
"Friends," he said, "you've seen them coming out of a furnace haven't. you're hot, sizzling and hissing. Well—" the掩acher pointed a long lean arm.
"Well," he continued, "they use that stuff for ice cream in the place I have just been speaking of."—New York Central Magazine.
Ohio and Good Night
Most of the shipping of the port of London has been loaded and discharged at Tilbury, twenty-six miles down the Thames but London has been made an important harbor for the construction of an enormous concrete dock in the very heart of the metropolis.
"Ohio" is "good morning" in Japanese, and Ohio it will be whoever candidate is victor. But for either New York or Massachusetts the election of a Vice President will mean 'good night!'

STUDENTS WELCOME AT SOUAD PRACTICE
sulk of Responsibility Will Fall On Captains—Not the
Athletics, this year in the University will be conducted on a different basis than ever before. The captains of the different sports will be held at the university, and the coaches will be more than a mere figurehead. In football the results may already be seen. It is sometimes difficult to determine which is the captain and which is the coach; they are all workhorses for the coaches merely are there for advice.
In basketball, where the squad is much smaller than the major sport, the captain will be more responsible for the team, its condition and equipment, than in any other of the four University sports. The men will report to the captain on coming out for practice. They will be requested to bring their trouble to him, *and* he will be required of their equipment is in good shape.
with the captain on matters which were formerly taken up with the coach. The captain will see that the men are ready for their respective events during the meets and the coach will merely oversee the work outs and offer advice from time to time.
In baseball the captain will also have charge of the practices, working the men at positions where they seem to be best fitted, using the pitcher's he thinks will work best and, in general, is best suited to work from the shoulders of the coach.
Dr. C, F. Allen, director of athletics mid this morning, "I can see that no students who are not able to make the squads of the different branches of athletics, can help to make that t sport successful by giving it their support in the practices as well as at the games. Students are always well come at the workouts, if they do not get in the way of practice."
Coaches have expressed the belief but if the whole University can come up to game principles without interruption, work of the men, they welcome.
Pretense.
—There never 'as human swelling that did not have its end in ridiculous collapse.
Dignity never sprawls on its nose unless it tries to run along beside Pretenae.
Pretend to know something that you don't and get caught at it—like a great statesman with a fine theory and no fonts; and they feel the hurt!
Pretend to be something you are not—for instance, a member of a fine old family—and down you come away with an unjustious pieces of a smashed灵敏ly.
Coaches
Pretend to be able to afford more than you can wickly afford—and bang goes pride.
New York City is full of persons who have considerable skill in pretense. Some of them have come from all over the country—to find a place to set up pretense. They fool each other with their show of money and position; they know and knowledge and power, and then—Bloop and everyone laughs.
VOGUE BEAUTY PARLOR FOR
If we want to have dignity that will stand it is necessary to have the brand that simple men have—Abraham Lincoln, for instance. The dignity that stands it in the legs is the dignity of no pretense at all—Oliver's Magazine.

In "As You Like It" R Shakespeare, speaking through dacues, tells of the "seven ages of man." Of course the category is complete and truthful, but we think that more modern times have suggested an eighth age, that might be inserted between the whining schoolboy and the soldier, bearded like a pard, and that is the "Age of the Soft Snake," when the whole one wants to kiss another for nothing. A boy generally reaches that stage when he is just out of school with a smattering of Latin and algebra, and imagines that the world owes him a living, and all he has to do is pick it off when the world swings in his way, observes a writer in Ohio State Journal. Nothing will do him but a soft snake, and all he has to do is pick it off when the world society, with motor rides and dressing for dinner. There are many such young men, or rather boys, just stepping on the stage of life, to whom the soft snake seems to be the blossom of their years. They spend the beauty and strength of their lives trying to get hold of it. How many a noble youth is utterly spared by waiting in line for food, while the wait the less fitted they are for any kind of real business. They are to-day the chief apostles of the high cost of living and are looked upon as by the people. No person can be a soft snapper if he possesses any real pride. He will take the first work that comes to hand and depend upon his merit and worth for his procreation. The sweet damals, let us say a word—steer clear of the soft snappers, until they show some disposition to work out their own salvation—Minneapolis Betterway.
