Students Must Report At Once For Physical Exams—Coach Hamilton
Gym Classes Probably Will Be Dismissed For Convocations
Uniforms Not Compulsory
Expense of Uniforms Make Them Impracticable For This Semester
The report of the special committee which did away with all laboratory work from 4 to 6 o'clock is to be modified. Students who have work during these periods will be permitted to take their daily exercise in the morning or afternoon before the laboratory period and may drop any laboratory work and will still be benefitted by the daily exercise.
Students who have not reported for physical examination preparatory to the req"sed physical exercise should do so as a rule," said W. O. Hamilton this morning, "Even if they want to be exempted from the exam all students must take Robinson's emptium at once or action will be taken on the cases of disobefience."
Just what plan is to be made to handle convocations has not yet been decided, but Coach Hamilton has announced a tentative plan. He hopes to have the classes well enough organized by the first of next week that he can get to work on the vacation time on the day the all-University gathering is to be held.
NO GYM ON CONVOCATION DAYS
This seems to be the most logical manner in which to handle the seemingly "joker" clause which the senate injected into the rules regulating the habits of the University students. By this clause all convocations are to be held after 4 o'clock and this would prevent the student from some arrangement is made to let the students out of their drill or exercise period.
the next convocation will be about a week from Thursday, when H. J. Waters, president of the Kansas State Agricultural College, will talk on food conservation to the students at K. U. Preparations for a mass meeting to stir up enthusiasm for the Argie-Kansas game have not been scheduled.
QUESTION UP TO STUDENTS
Another question which is worrying students of the University is that of military uniform or the outfit at the cheapest price, a single piece of each article, would cost $20, and a winter suit such as the students would probably have to wear now, would cost an additional $5 to $10. Some students can afford a dress but the absence of the student could, especially those who are working their way through school.
To the students who already have uniforms from army service or from several months work at a training camp, there is little doubt but that it will mean a saving but to the average student it appears as though it would work a hardship. In any case it is up to the individual student.
Manager Hamilton is in favor of the uniform, for he believes it would be economical for students, but it will be entirely up to him, he sees them. He then teaches each student will have to buy his own. What would become of the old suit or several suits of clothes which he now has is another thing which makes the military uniform plan seem questionable to its economical and saving qualities.
Liberty Loan Campaign
By Students Continues
**Subscriptions for the Liberty Loan Bonds were made yesterday through the university bond representatives amounting to $200. One member of the faculty took $500 and the Kanza Omega socrity also bought bonds. This makes the largest subscription from any fraternity on the hill. Any others who are thinking of buying bonds can either see John Foster or Tucker or consult with bankers with which they carry their accounts.**
Students and faculty members who bought bonds last week were:
From the faculty and student body were the following: S. O. Rice, Prof. J. J. Wheeler, Prof. H. C. Thurman, Prof. Hannah Oliver, W. W. Davis, George Taylor, Dick Galvin, Eva Anderson, Anton Williams, R. F. Hunter, John A. Montgomery, Abrahams Griffon, Irma and Ruth Lean, Fay Dodgebridge, Paul B.

Dr. H. J. Waters Speaks Here On Food Problem
Dr. H. J. Waters, Kansas state food administrator, will speak on food conservation in Robinson Gymnasium at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Every student of the University will be required to attend as a patriotic duty, as a part of the observance of Labor Day and to order under the new military discipline of the University. All faculty members are urged to attend.
In addition to Doctor Waters' speech the University will endeavor to do its part in the food conservation campaign by asking each student to sign the food pledge. These pledges will be passed around in classes Friday or will be given out Thursday afternoon in the gymnasium.
Soph Hop Admission Price Cut In Half By Limiting Expenditures
Only $3.00 a Couple Will Be Charged For Big Class Party This Year
The admission price to the Sophomore Hop has been set at $1.50 a single admission or $3.00 a couple.
This is the decision reached by the cost estimator for estimating the cost of the party. The price last year was $5.50 a couple.
One-third of the amount of admission is to be paid for refreshments. The music, programs and decorations will be the other items of expense that must be met. No effort will be made to more than pay for the party.
A list of those who are entitled to invitations has been turned over to this year's management and invitations will be sent out some time this week. He also pays his free this year is entitled to free admission in his senior year.
Dances scheduled for the night of November 23 have been called off to make way for the big party. A Dance Hall in front of the ticket sale will start at once.
"We are going to make the party an economical affair without cutting the quality of the Hop," said Rip Brady this morning. "Flowers and cabs are taboo and it will be the duty of every student to see that for once the often threatened plan of cutting expenses is realized."
Jayhawker Men Urge Seniors To Speed Up Prints for Yearbook
Friday Before Christmas ]
Final Date For Pictures
To Be In
Seniors in the University, in a statement given out this morning by the Jayhawkier management, were urged to take heed of the announcement made last week of the final date for senior prints to be in the hands of the artist on November 21, the last day of classes before he Christmas holidays, is the date.
"The students, however," he said this morning, "do not appreciate the amount of work and time it takes to get these pictures taken and the skills they need to remain before the holidays and in order to get all senior pictures taken within that period of time and to insure the high grade of photography we desire, every senior should call on their instructor at once and make arrangements."
A good many students had their pictures taken last week and others are arranging with the photographer according to Harry Morgan, editor.
In spite of the unsettled conditions due to the war the annual men are going on with their plans for the book and to considerable art work has been done.
Godfrey Miller, c'21, has withdrawn from school and will go home to farm until he is called in the second draft. Godfrey says it is impossible to study with the draft regulations hanging over him and he thinks it to go home and do his bit of food raiding before he has to get to war.

Phi Beta Phi, Two wheatlet and one meatlett day a week.
Chancellor Strong said this morning that it was hoped that people would cheerfully refrain from buying cured meats, sugar and wheat products because they were not nutritionally necessary. He explained that European people need the wheat, as they have no mills for grinding corn, and would not know how to cook it even if corn meal could be shirred without spoiling. Students, Chancellor Strong says, must advance the movement, because it is a deeply dependent upon the patronage of students for a livelihood, must please the students.

Special Train Will Leave Saturday Loaded With Kansas Supporters
Tickets On Sale All Week
Hamilton Expects To Fill Train And Have Rooters To
On to Aggieville!
next saturday morning, the Jay hawker-special, made up of at least five passenger coaches and probably a diner, will leave the Union Pacific station for an invasion of Manhattan, the home of Coach Cleveland's Kansas Aggies. The big special will carry the Kansas football squad and the host of rooters who are crying for Agie meat this week.

SPECIAL TRAIN ASSURED
"The special train of five coaches has always contracted for," said Athletic Manager W. O. Hamilton this morning. "It is also probable that there will be a diner for the football team. The train will leave Lawrence at 8:30 Saturday morning and will leave Manhattan on the return trip at 8:00 the same evening. A return trip ticket will cost about $3.50, the new war tax making it thirty cents extra."
Manager Hamilton said the tickets for the Aggie game would be on sale at his office all week, beginning Monday, and it would not be necessary for passengers to purchase the required number of passengers for the special is already assured.
COACH BEAU OLCOTT
who has been called to Chicago to direct training of 40,000 naval recruits stationed there. The former Yale air force came to K. U. two years ago.
Never before in the history of football relations between K. U. and the Aggles has the excitement over the annual game been so great in Lawrence, and, after the defeat of the strong Ames aggregation last Saturday, and the great showing made by the "green" Kansas linesmen, backers of Coach Ollett's men believe that a crowd will be hitten Saturday and that another mark will be chalked up in the victory column for the Jayhawkers.
RIVALRY RUNS STRONG
The spirit shown by Kansas rosters, hundreds of whom have signified their intentions of going to Manhattan Saturday, is pleasing. Cheerleader Rusty Friend immensely. The crowd at the event's conversation in student circles this week and that he enthusiastic rooter declared that he would walk clear to Manhattan rather than miss the game. Many students and townpeople will make the trip by automobile if the roads are in good condition, cheerleader Rusty is anxious the roster should be in the rooting section at the game.
RUSTY READY FOR RALLY
Friend announced this morning that there will be a rally in Fraser Chapel either Thursday or Friday evening, and that the Thunderingus team will tune up then, preparatory for the game Saturday. The band will be there in full force and short talks will be made by Uncle Jimmy Green, Coach Beau Olcott, and others.
Jayhawkers at Doniphan To See Game Saturday
There will be at least 300 Kansas rooters at the Oklahoma-Kansas football classic at Norman, Oklahoma, November 10, for there are that many K. u. Men in the various regiments at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and they will go to the game. Permission from the men of the University to see the game and at least 300 will go in a body the 150 miles to see the contest.
The latest unit to arrive in camp and swell the Kansas contingent is Company A, Kansas Engineers, who have been at Fort Riley for the last two months. More than half of the men in this unit are from the University.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Florence Ingham appeared with an entirely new excuse for being late to class today. She didn't know that the 8 o'clock schedule had started.
There are more ways than one to buy the theater tickets. Did you ever sell a cat to bring about the desired result? That's the brilliant idea of an authoritative music and a journalist. The only difficulty is that they can't catch the cat.
Who said dates were plentiful? A certain freshman called up twenty-one girls in an endeavor to get a date with his girlfriend, and then had to go by himself.
A certain student with fees propped on a board leads his home town paper and remarks.
"Hum, I can get a job in my home town, picking chickens."
Roommate: "Well, you've sure picked some poor ones here."
Jennette Parkinson, animated by the true economic spirit, wrote all her letters last week. And she told everyone that she was trying to catch up with her correspondence before she had to pay three cents for one letter. This week she has received six letters in every mail!
Complimentary tickets to football games really should be elastic. One sweet young thing came to the game with one, presented by the favorite hero, and brought a friend with her. But they were turned away at the gate because they only had sixty-three cents between them—and one pass. They saw a movie instead of the hero's exploits.
Winter started off in fine style yesterday when Bob Fool initiated the west steps of Praser. Seemingly Bob had forgotten the light snowfall duri- ture of winter, and snuck makey hasty retreat from the building. We suggest a pair of non-skids.
Examiner Senior: "Are you askin- question that merely to satisfy your interest?"
Jessie Wyatt: "Certainly not. My curiosity is never satisfied."
"If we must take compulsory recreation, why can't we really enjoy ourselves?" asks one senior. "Why can't we take our favorite dates with us every afternoon when we rumble over the countryside?" Respectfully submitted to the senate committee on arrangements.
The last organization of the University to buy a Liberty Bond was the Men's Student Council. The council purchased one bond Saturday on the installment plan from one of the banks down town.
There has been much discussion among students as to whether or not Lawrence wells really are contaminated. The question was brought up in one of the sociology classes recently and the professor disposed of it with the following terse comparison. He said, "A well is like a feeble-minded person. It is potentially unfit and dangerous."
Dean Bulter Unable To Go On Concert Tour
Dean Harold Butler left last night for Valparaiso, Ind., where he was called on account of the critical illness of his mother.
Mrs. Butler has taken Dean Butler's place on the concert tour for University Extension of Fine Arts, taking with her Prof. Joseph A. Farrell and Anna Sweeney. Dean Butler was to have left this morning on this trip.

Coach Herman Olcott Leaves K. U.To Teach Navy Recruits Sports
Jayhawker Mentor Will Be On Duty at Great Lakes Training Station
Definite Orders Awaited
Efforts Made to Delay Going Until Fotball Season Is Nearer End
Coach Herman Olcott has accepted the position of director of athletics at the Great Lakes Naval Training Statium at Chicago, and is waiting orders from the naval department. He is endearcing to have the time of leaving the University postponed several weeks if possible to more nearly finish his work with this year's football team, but the training station authorities as yet have not acted on this request.
The military authorities asked the Kansas mentor last week if he would accept the position, and believing it a patriotic duty in the present national crises to develop the sailors physically , he immediately interviewed Frank Strong to get a leave of absence from the war. It was granted and the coach immediately wired he would accept the position.
NO SUCCESSION NAMED
A successor to the coach of the Kansas game, not been announced yet. It is likely, however that Coach Jay Bond, of the freshman team and former Kansas star, will take charge of the squad. Although the appointment has not been officially announced, both Man-尼特 W. O. Cott, said Coach Bond probably would take charge of the team.
A number of the Kansas sport followers have expressed doubt as to the advisability of changing coaches in the middle of the season and the possible results of such a change. Coach Olcott said he did not believe his absence would materially affect the showing of the team now, because all of the players were going good and had the fighting spirit.
Coach Bond has sent his freshman eleven against the Varsity several times each week since the first of the season and knows the weak and strong points of the team. He has also scouted most of the valley games and knows what to expect from the other teams.
MUST GET SOMEONE AT ONCE
MUST GET SOMEONE AT ONCE
You may not have any idea whom he would employ to take charge of the freshman squad. Someone, however, will be employed within the next few days because it is necessary that the freshmen learn how to work the other valley teams so they can work them out against the Varsity.
"I dislike to leave the University in the middle of the season," Coach Olcott said this morning, "but I feel it is a duty. There are about forty students at the Great Lakes station and the job indeed will be a real one."
