Should Break Up Pass
Defeat of Oklahoma Would Pave Way to Missouri Valley Championship
strong. The Jayhawkers, twenty-two strong, with Coach Jay Bond, Manager, O. Hamilton, and accompany get-away to quiet get-away for Norman last night.
The boys all seemed in the best of condition, with the possible exception of Foster and Laslett, and the "fighting spirit" which they promise to show in tomorrow's game was evident.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 9, 1917.
A few students left today in automobiles to see the game, and will assist the K. U. boys at Camp Doniphan in cheering the Jayhawkers to the two-touchdown victory that has been predicted by Captain Swede Nielsen
IN ENEMY TERRITORY
Today General Bond are his football regiment are in the enemy territory, preparing for the struggle to the Kansans are looking forward to a victory, but General Bond is not over confident. The dope points to Kansas, for Illinois rumped on Bonnie Owen's men 40 to 0, while the Jayhawkers held the Illinois eleven to 22 counts.
The decisive victory over the speedy Manhattan team last week opened up the possibilities for a Missouri Valley Championship, and the Oklahoma game will be a strong factor in determining the morale of the Crimson and Blue men. If the Sooners are defeated Kansas will go into the struggle with Nebraska with confidence, and the spirit of victory.
Oklahoma has long been famous for its speedy aerial attack, and this will be the method of offense of Coach Owen. Kansas will go into the game with experience against the forward pass style of the Oklahomaans, for Freshman Coach Laird, who is acquainted with the Oklahoma pass, used it in the freshman scrimimages with the Varsity this week.
SHOULD STOP FORWARD PASS
SHOULD SHOW
Kansas should have little trouble in bedside up the forward pass, for both the Ames and Kansas Aggie eleveneds count to be by the use of it, while Kansas turned upon the Ames aerial attack with a touchdown as the direct result of a long forward pass.
Besides a clever aerial attack, the Sooners have a strong line, but this has been the strongest point on the Kansas eleven this season. With every lineman in fighting position, a series of good plays developed in weeks, Kansas should experience no difficulty with the Oklahoma line.
To counter the Oklahoma offense, Kansas has a smashing offense that will be hard to stop. The mighty Pringle is better than ever; he tore through the freshman line time last year and scored in Game 7 for Mandeville, an Oklahoma man, will play his best game against his home state, it is predicted, and Captain Nielsen's line smashes should prove as successful as ever. A new star, Merle Rubble, was developed in the Aggie game and his runs should gain heavily for
Stem Foster will be field marshal for the day, and if injury cuts him out, Doc Marquis has been prepared to take his place.
Many Join Y. W. C. A.
Following Campaigr
The plan used by the membership committee of the Y, W. C. A. for getting new members this year is very successful, according to Margaret Walker, chairman of the membership committee. "By this new system every girl in the University is given an opportunity to sign a membership card, whether she pledges any money or not," said Miss Walker.
"As a result of the first campaign this year the Y. W. C. A. has 525 members, but we hope to have at least 650 members after the second membership campaign, which will begin in about two weeks."
Recognition service for new mem bers will be held in December.
John Montgomery, Dale Kansan sporting editor, left this morning for Norman to report the details of tomorrow's game with the Sooners, in Monday's DAILY KANSAN.

Y. W. Classes at Haskell Have Large Enrollment
The Y. W. C. A. work at Haskell is well under way now with an enrollment of seventy-five young women who are divided into five classes for Bible study. Every Sunday afternoon Dorothy May Sandburg with her committee, Mignon Schell, Iv Testerman, Imogene Gillispie, and Mrs. Inez Mosher, go to Haskell at 2:45 o'clock to conduct classes.
The subjects taught are, Christian Citizenship for Girls, The Life of Christ, and Women of Ancient Israel. Similar classes will be held on yesterday night. These classes will run through the first semester and next semester classes in mission study will be organized. Each class educates officers and the work is carried on in a business or social event. Social events will be given so that the girls may become better acquainted with each other.
Students Should Report At Once to Hospital For Typhoid Inoculation
University Health Service Urges Smallpox Vaccination
Also
"Students not taking all three inoculations of typhoid vaccine are not immune from the disease. Between fifty and sixty men have not returned to the University Hospital for the third or even the second time. After delaying two weeks, the first and second inoculations are worthless."
That is the assertion given by the University Health Service this morning. Many of those not reporting for their final inoculation are freshmen who took the first inoculation September 27.
the cost of the vaccine used by these sixty delinquents is $10. This money student money—is needlessly world, according to hospital authorities.
Inoculation is given to women every Tuesday afternoon and to men Thursday afternoons. All who have not presented themselves for the completion of their inoculation are expected by the hospital to do so. Inoculations are made since they took the last inoculation, however, they must begin with the first again.
Two of the three students who have been ill with typhoid fever at the hospital have returned home, declared patient is reported to be improving.
The health service will also vaccinate students for smallpox any afternoon except Tuesday and Thursday. This is the time of the year, say the doctors, when cases of smallpox are likely to break out, and it is advisable for the students to take this preventive measure.
In the University of California, men and women are required to have been inoculated for typhoid and to show a good smallpox vaccination scar before they are allowed to enroll. This requirement would be a good thing to apply to K. U., said a hospital official this morning, as it would insure better health conditions among the students.

President's Thanksgiving Proclamation
A Proclamation!
It has long been the honored custom of our people to turn in the fruitful autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty God for his many blessings and mercies to us as a Nation.
That custom we can follow now even in the midst of tragedy of a world shaken by war and immeasurable disaster, in the midst of sorrow and great peril, because even amidst the darkness that has gathered about us we can see the great blessings God has bestowed upon us, blessings that are better than mere peace of mind and prosperity of enterprise.
A Proclamation!
sperity of enterprise.
We have been given the opportunity to serve mankind as we once served ourselves in the great day of our Declaration of Independence by taking up arms against a tyranny that threatened to master and debase men everywhere, and joining with other free peoples in demanding for all the nations of the world what we then demanded and obtained for ourselves. In this day of the revelation of our duty, not only to defend our own rights as a Nation, but to defend also the rights of free men throughout the world, there has been vouchsafed us in full and inspiring measure the resolution and spirit of united action. We have been brought to one mind and purpose. A new vigor of common counsel and common action has been revealed in us. We should especially thank God that in such circumstances, in the midst of the greatest enterprise the spirits of men have ever entered upon, we have, if we but observe a reasonable and practicable economy, abundance with which to supply the needs of those associated with us as well as our own. A new light shines above us. The great duties of a day awaken a new and greater national spirit in us. We shall never be divided or wonder what stuff we are made of.
And while we render thanks for these things, let us pray Almighty God that in all humbleness of spirit we may look always to him for guidance; that we may be kept constant in the spirit and purpose of service; that by his grace our minds may be directed and our hands strengthened; and that in his good time liberty and security and peace and the comradeship of a common justice may be vouchsafed all the nations of the earth.
Wherefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Thursday, the 29th day of November next, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer, and invite the people throughout the land to cease upon that day from their ordinary occupations and in their several homes and places of worship to render thanks to God, the great ruler of nations.
In witness whereof of, I hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done in the District of Columbia the 7th day of November, in the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and seventeen, and of the independence of the United States of America, the one hundred and forty-second.
Women Enthusiastic Over Cross Country Hiking—200 Enrolled
By the President.

Secretary of State.
Marching With Simple Military Tactics
Course Consists of Squad Student Organizations Doubt
The question is, "Resolved, that the terms of settlement of this war should include the establishment of the League to Enforce Peace."
The annual Kansas-Missouri debate will be held at Lawrence some time during the latter part of March.
The question this year was submitted by Missouri, and Kansas is to choose the side.
Kansas-Missouri Debate Will Be On Peace Terms
The course in cross country is offered only at four and five o'clock. Many women are taking the entire two hours in cross country, or three hours or three hours and are making up the required time in floor work or swimming.
The most popular form of exercise for women under the new system of five hours of compulsory exercise is the course offered in cross country hiking, according to gymnasium instructors. There are about two hundred women enrolled in this course. According to Mary Bacon, instructor for the gymnasium, the women were at first most bitterly opposed to compulsory exercise, show the best spirit since they have actually started the work.
Each squad goes in a different direction every night. Roads are not followed except for a very short distance. Last night one squad leader reported climbing ten barb wire fences and taking cross country as they took crossing country are supposed to wear suitable clothing to afternoon classes that they may take cross country without making a change of garments. There is no especial dress or kind of shoe that the required鞋子 or kind of worm is that they must be low heeled.
The course in cross country consists of squad marching of from one to four miles a day in which simple military tactics are used. The women are divided into squads of from sixteen to twenty persons including the squad leaders. The distance that the squad covers and the character of the ground over which they are carried is important condition of the women who compose the squad. At present the exercise is far from strenuous.

State Will Not Print Student Directories; No Money for Work
Job
The University must forego the printing of some more important publication, such as catalogues, if the library will print the student directories.
The fact that the State Printer would not print the directories does not mean that students must do with out them. Several student organizers have suggested the Men's Study Council, have thought seriously of taking the matter up.
No student directories will be printed by the state this year because of lack of funds, Registrar George O. Foster announced after a conference with the state printer. If the state prints the directories, some other University publication must be given up to provide funds for them.
The real thing which prevents the issue of the directories is the unsettled condition of the two telephone companies which are being merged. Praccipients of the telephone numbers of both the Bell and Home systems are or will be changed.
"No organization on the Hill," said Walter Havekorsh this morning, "would care to take up the matter of the publication of the student directories unless they had the money for them in their hands before the directories were sent to press. The students would not care to buy them if they were issued after January first or if they did not contain all telephone numbers as well as addresses of the students. I do not think that it would be practical to publish the directories unless all telephone numbers are available."
As there has been no meeting of the Student Council since Registrar Foster returned from seeing the State Printer, the matter of publishing the directories will be dropped by the Student Councell at present.
If the directories are not published this year it will be the first time for five years. The first two volumes of the Daily Kansan office are printed at the Daily Kansan office.
The University Daily Kansan wishes to correct an error which appeared in the Wednesday's Kansan in regard to the selection of members of the committee authorized by the University Senate to supervise student finances. The member of the committee, or one of the five members of the committee, will be chosen by the Student Council, and not by the Senate as the story read.
Correction of Senate Report
"Gas and Flame" Name Of Chemists' Regiment
That the University-trained men have a special place in the United States Army is again evidenced by the announcement of a training camp for chemists at the American University Camp at Washington. There is to be a regiment formed named the "Gass and Flame" regiment, composed of chemists from different Universities.
Lieutenant-General John J. Pershing calbed the other day asking that a such body of men be sent over to France as soon as possible as the American troops must learn the most efficient use of the poisonous gases.
The "Gas and Flame" regiment will not only teach the thorough knowledge of gases, but will de experience there to determine new and more effective ones.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Have you seen the dandelions growing on the Hill? All the weather expected to decide whether they indicate late fall or an extremely early spring.
The senior in the house remarked that the person who behaved so outrageously must have come from Podunk where they didn't know any better. And the freshman wanted to snow if Podunk was a town in Kansas
Have you seen the new Phi Gam house? It's a regular mansion at 1439 New Jersey Street. The University women hikers found it yesterday afternoon. On the front porch was a large wooden desk, a spelled out on it. Out of a window a couple of pcapinns grinned at the tired bunch of maids.
Don't be alarmed. The hole in the Mother Earth between the Marvin and Haworth Halls is nothing more than an excavation for another water meter, and it's only a three-inch meter and a six-inch meter is being placed "along side."
Many are the times in the last three weeks that professor and students in Room 103, Ad Building, have jumped out of their boots (and that's equally as strenuous a stunt as jumping into them) when some tardy stude has entered the door, accompanied at the same time by the unmistakable shriek of a young puppy writening in all the argyon of a stepped-on tail.
Why, oh why (this should be delivered a la tragique) doesn't SOME kind hearted janitor oil those door hinges?
American Cooks Must Learn to Use Corn As Substitute For Wheat
Member of National Food Ad ministration Board Talked To Women's Forum
"We are establishing corn kitchens and asking every one to sign food pledges, because one and one-half tons of useful garbage are burned daily at only one of the many Chicago hotels"<sup>1</sup>. "Members of the Home Economics Club and the Women's Forum in Fraser Hall yesterday. American cooks must learn to煮, declare Mrs. Norton, who is secretary of the National Home Economics Association, and a member of the National Food Administration Board."
Mrs. Norton's subject was "Vocational Opportunities for Women in Home Economics." She says the war is opening up many new opportunities in this field. There are places for public speakers who are able to tell the public in simple terms of food values and ways to economize. Women journalists need to understand food articles intelligently are in great demand. Hospital dietitians inspectors for public institutions, school laboratories, and army camps are needed. "The accusation that there is needless waste in the army camps is due to the fact that there are few real camp cooks and that the majority of hotel chefs do not know how to save money. Most government needs inspectors who can go in and teach them how to economize." Extension workers and visiting housekeepers are also in great demand.
All classes in home economics is the Chicago public schools are cooking and baking dishes to make palatable dishes which they will introduce into their homes.
Famous David Grayson Will Tell How to Live In A Crowded World
Miss Jenny Snow, supervisor of Home Economics in the public schools of Chicago, told of one corn kitchen established in Chicago with eight cooks and a plower performing with corn meal dishes. They make corn pon, bread, griddle cakes and muffins. The first day it was opened over 40,000 persons were served. The object is to try to induce them to eat the corn meal and save wheat flour.
Author of "Adventures In Contentment" Is Really Ray Stannard Baker
Will Speak Here Saturday
Comes From Topeka Where He Has Been Talking To Teachers
Ray Stannard Baker, author of the David Grayson stories and one of the big speakers at the Kansas State Teachers' Association this week, will speak before the University Chapel in a luncheon at 8:00 o'clock. His subject will be "The Art of Living in a Crowded World."
Mr. Baker is regarded as one of the foremost writers in America today. His work of late has been about nature subjects, his most recent writing being the series "Great Possessions," in the American Magazine, of which he is associate editor. He has written articles on nature and grayson, and it is only recently that it has been known the man behind that name was Baker.
IS FRIEND OF WATTLES
"Mr. Baker is absolutely a natural, human simple, friendly American," said Willard Wattles, instructor in English, and a friend of the writer. "He is very kind to people in garden. He is possessed of a love of Nature and a strong sense of humor."
The first writing that Mr. Baker did was about twenty years ago and was the result of his investigating the bad conditions in trusts and big business. Since that time he has been a constant writer, and ranks gods on the list. He paid newspaper and magazine writers in the United States. For five years he was with the Chicago Record. Later he was managing editor of the McClure Syndicate and associate editor of McClure's Magazine.
WRITES FOR THE AMERICAN
When the American Magazine started in 1908, Baker was associated with Ida M. Tarbell, William Allen White, and others in founding it. He has since been an associate editor of The Atlantic, and has written much of his work for it.
Upon changing his style of writing from investigatory exposition to descriptive nature stories, he also changed his pen name to David Grayman.
Professor Hopkins had suspected a year prior to this that they were the same persons, and had his classes in English compare the works written under Grayson. They arrived at the same conclusion.
His description of the Pelham Hills, Connecticut Valley, Berkshire Hills, Mount Toby, and Amherst, Mass., has been compared to that of John Burroughs for the Catskill Mountains and Thoreau for Walden Pond. He has recently associated himself with the return of writers to agitation for Christianity as it existed in other years.
GREAT ABILITY AT DESCRIPTION
Some of his writings under the name of Grayson are: Adventures In Friendship, Adventures in Contentment, The Friendly Road, and Hempfield. Under his real name he has written many Ideals In Healing, Following the Colour Line, Our New Prosperity, and others.
