UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Members of Faculty Have Held Positions More Than Generation
Uncle Jimmy Green Came to The University In 1878
Many Changes On The Hill
Came
Only Two Buildings on Campus When Professor Sterling
There are several members of the faculty who have served on Mount Oread for more than a generation and who are still actively engaged in teaching.
Uncle Jimmy Green, besides being Dean of the School of Law and the patron saint of football, holds the distinction of being on the faculty longer than any member now in active service. Uncle Jimmy Green also has active charge of the School of Law, which was organized in that year.
Five years later, Miles W. Sterling, associate professor of Greek and active head of that department, entered the faculty as an instructor of Latin. Professor Sterling graduated from the University in 1883 and is now in his thirty-fifth year as a teacher in the department of ancient languages.
In the fall of 1883, A. M. Wilcox,
head of the department of Greek
came to the University. He was
followed by Hannah Oliver, associate
professor of Latin. Miss Oliver
graduated from K. J. U., and spent
ten years teaching in Kansas
high schools before entering the faculty.
E. H. S. Bailey, head of the department of chemistry, entered upon his duties here in 1883 and Dean Sayre of Pharmacy came about two years later.
In 1884 the name of Olin Templin, Dean of the College, first appeared on the faculty roll as an instructor of mathematics. Dean Templin did not receive his degree from the University until two years later, but in those days a person could attain the rank of instructor without a degree.
Charles G. Duplau, head of the department of English, came to K. U., in 1887, and Prof. E. M. Hopkins, of the same department, followed two years.
The University of Kansas in those days was a different place from the University of Kansas of today. In 1878, the year Uncle Jimmy came, the first trees were planted. Fraser Hall and a little stone observatory east of it were the only ones on the Hill of Oread was rugged and tunggraded, and there was a hill rising abruptly from the front steps of Fraser.
Another dean, who appeared here in the eighties, is F. W. Blackmar, Dean of the Graduate School, whose connection with the University dates from 1889. Frank H. Hodder, professor of geology at the University of Birmingham, head of the department of geology and mineralogy, followed one year later.
"Preparatory college work was a feature of the University curriculum in the eighties and about one-half" of the three hundred students were enrolled in that department and four or twelve members in 1883 and many of them gave the greater part of their time to the preparatory classes."
"Many were the times," said Professor Sterling, "when the students had to wade through mud because the planks which served the purpose of sidewalks had been blown away by the wind.

Seismograph On Base Separate From Blake
Instrument Connected Directly With Ground To Take Shlight Disturbances
"So you have come for a write-up of the seismograph," said Prof. F. E. Kester of the department of physics as he willingly led the cub reporter to the basement of Blake Hall, where the instrument stands.
The seismograph is enclosed in a glass case and is thus protected from moisture, air, and small insects which might disturb the mechanism. "The last quake that we observed," said Professor Kester "occurred about three weeks ago. It was not a very big one and lasted only a short time.
"If you look carefully you will see that the instrument is not connected with the building," he continued. "Instead, it stands upon a base which is directly connected with the ground. In this way any movement of the earth is imparted to the machine and is recorded by two tracers."
"When a quake occurs, the tracers record two different phases. The first one, called the primary phase, comes over the shortest or the fastest route. In this phase, the particles of the earth move longitudinally. The second phase comes over, a longer distance than time, the disturbed particles of the earth move transversely to the shock. This phase travels near the surface of the earth. As a result it is the last in reaching any given point."

December 7 Date Set For Annual Law Scrim Not A Formal Affair
Party Will Be Open To All Students This
Year
The annual Law Scrim in honor of the K. U. football team will be held in F. A. U. Hall, December 7. Dick Gellin and A. G. Barteldes, managers of the party, have submitted a budget to Registrar George O. Poster, who is chairman of the committee on his consent, and have obtained his consent to go ahead with the arrangements for the Scrim.
The 1917 Law Scrim will be informal. Heretofore it has been one of the most elaborate parties of the University, but popular sentiment for informality seems to indicate that the change this year will be a welcome one. The dance will be open to all students this year.
Arrangements are being made by the managers to obtain the Baltimore Hotel orchestra of Kansas City for the party. A supper will be served during the evening. Only one hundred tickets will be sold and the price of the tickets has been reduced to $3.
All managers and leaders of organizations subject to University Senate eligibility rules governing organizations other than Athletic are hereby requested to confer with the chariman of the committee before the end of this week.

County Clubs Support Permanent Income Bill
Different Clubs Are Organizing Rapidly—Jewell County Is First In Line
Glassco has appointed two representatives, a man and a woman, from each county represented in the University to organize the students of their counties into clubs. He wished that the students of the county organized to do so at once as the union must have the assistance of each individual county.
Most of the representatives appointed by Willard Glasco, president of the County Club Union, have organized the students of their counties into clubs, according to Glasco this morning. Greater activity of the union will begin as soon as all of the counties are organized. It is the intention of the County Club Union, with the assistance of the attorney's association, to carry out the fight for the ratification of the permanent income tax in every part of the state. All five state schools will assist in the program which is being carried out for the ratification of the amendment.
Jewell county was one of the first to organize. Officers have been elected and a representative to the County Club Union has been appointed by Harold Shores, the present mayor, who will be held in Mokato during the Christmas holidays. The Neoho county club met last night. All the clubs are expected to be organized within the next few days.
"Our first idea," said Glasco this morning, "will be to advertise the program of the County Club Union thoroughly throughout the state. Banning gathers ("gatherers") will be held as soon as each county is organized and all the state schools will have a part in the general program. The alumni association, will aid in showing the purpose and commitment throughout all the state."

Haley To Play Saturday
For Dance In Robinson
Haley and his 4-piece orchestra from Kansas City will play at an all-University dance in Robinson Gymnastics next Saturday night at 8:30 o'clock, given by the Man's Student Athletic Co. as a feat of the football training table.
The dance is taking the place of the regular Saturday night Varsity downtown. It was felt necessary by the council to take the舞 to larger quarters because of the many people who will be in Lawrence Saturday for the Home-Coming Day. The price will be 75 cents.
New York Is Choice of Many University Grads; Success In Literature
Class of 1912 Has Largest Representation In Metropolis— Few More Each Year
When K. U. graduates leave the confines of Kasaps to seek fortunes, the most popular place for them to go seems to be New York. This may be because the metropolls offers greater opportunities to the educated man, or it may be that they are attracted by the bigness of the city; or because the attraction, it has drawn not less than seventy of K. U.'s alumni.
These men and women have distinguished themselves in many fields and have reflected credit upon the University. The most creditable work has been done in journalism and other branches of literary work.
The class of 1912 has the largest representation in New York now. However, nearly every class is reprieve members ranging from one to seven.
A few names picked at random will serve to show what some of the old Jayhawkers are doing. Kate Stephens, A.B.75, A.M.78, has attained prominence as an author. Her latest book is *Socialology*, "Work Fellows in Sociology."
Edwin E. Slosson, B.S.'90, Russell Whitman, A.B.'93, and Elizabeth Gatlin, A.B.'05, are all doing work in journalism, the first two editing newspapers and the latter writing for McClure's Magazine.
In other professions we have, Eugene Wilson Caldwell, B.S. '92, widely known as one of America's leading X-ray specialists, and Fred Wood, A. who has attained prominence as a successful corporation attorney.
