Rice Lectures About Rugs
Mandeville was the only player from the football squad to report. Other candidates expected from the gridiron are Lashell, Lonborg, and Knox. The players proactively prepare for a winning season are not bright at present it is likely that they will begin to loom up when the squad gets a little more practice. Kansas has lost several good players because of injuries, but the team also have also lost some good men, so Kansas should have a fair chance at the valley championship.

Varsity Men To Coach Candidates for Class Football Games Named
First Games December 15- Freshmen Play Juniors And Sophomores Meet Seniors
Plans for a successful inter-class football season are being made by the Varsity men who are coaching the class teams. Every football suit belonging to the athletic association probably will be checked out in the next two or three days, for many women are required to do their bit in upholding the honor of their class on the gridiron.
Coach Jay Bond has appointed the following men to do the coaching: Nielsen, Hull and Wilson for the seniors; Foster, Jones and Woolford for the juniors; Pinnick for the sophomores; and Pringle, Frost and Lonk for the freshmen.
The coaches will not have quite two weeks to whip their teams into shape; so the sooner the men report for work the easier it is. The first games will be played December 15 when the freshmen play the junior and the sophomores meet the seniors. The game deciding game will inter-class following Wednesday, December 19.
Results of Research Published
All freshmen who did not make the trip to Columbia as members of the freshman squad are eligible to play inter-class football.
**LEADING THEIR MOVEMENTS**
"The Insects in Kansas Insects" is the title of the bulletin comprising the results of reseARCHES, conducted by graduate students of the entomology department, which S. J. Hunter, state entomologist, will soon have ready for the use of the students of entomology.
This bulletin consists of four main articles: "The Grasshopper of Kansas"; "The Nassaner"; "The Dragon of Kansas"; and "The Caterpillar of Kennedy; "Seale Insects Injurious to Fruit and Shade Trees," by P. B. Lawson and "The Cankwerw" by Walter H. Wellhouse.
A new class room for recitation purposes has been added to the department of zoology in Snow Hall. It was formed by building a light wood partition across the north end of the basement of the building and cutting off a small port of a hall, formerly used for lockers.

"The Technique of Social Surveys," is reviewed by Murray Gross in the November number of the National Municipal Review.
The review says, in part: "In a brief but complete way, Dr. Elmer explains the relation of the social survey to the community; what things should be considered in making a study of any special problem; how the information desired for the data and information gathered can be put to most effective use. * * * The work is the result of the author's experience in conducting surveys and supervising the work of civic organizations, clubs, religious bodies, and college life, and, if taken only with respect to itssurvey purpose, it will not gat ing questions, constitutes an exceedingly valuable handbook for reference in studying social and civic conditions."
