MARCH 7, 1906 UNIVERSITY CALENDAR. Fridav, March 9. May, March 9. Kansan day in Chapel. Professor E. M. Hopkins J. W. Kayser R. L. Douglas Ladies of faculty serve tea. Senior party in F. A. Hall. Soph-"Varsity basket ball. Would you like to pay five cents to see a good football game? A general assessment would mean larger crowds at all athletic events, musical programs, debates, etc. Large crowds mean enthusiasm, and enthusiasm means success. The Stubbs-Allen-Scott controversy is stirring up as sharp a factional fight among University Republicans as any where in the district. The young politicians are out for a scrap. In connection with the political enthusiasm that is rife at present, it would be well to remember that it is a queer civic conscience that will allow a young man to help pack a local primary, when he has no idea of giving up his former residence. Captain Driscoll of the track team wears a perpetual smile since the K. C. A. C. meet. He is not the only one that is feeling cheerful over the prospects. Kansas will send a splendid team to Kansas City, March 16, and Missouri will get a run for her money. In the report of the Washburn game in our last issue, a mistake was made in crediting the proper person with goals made. The five field and seven free goals given to W. Miller should have been credited to Allen and the two given to Allen should have been credited to Miller. Why not adopt Professor Carruth's suggestion and have a student's day in chapel when they could voice their sentiments in reference to some of the "don't likes," that are most dear to their hearts. We hope that Professor Carruth's suggestions will be adopted by the chapel committee. Did you ever see a fellow walking up the street with a young lady, and punctuating his conversation by expectorating on the sidewalk, or by rolling his cigarette from one side of his face to the other? Of course you have. And didn't it make you sore? It should, at any rate. Smoking is no disgrace, but a gentleman would know that it is not always in order. Why don't the girls insist on proper respect for themselves? Important Language Lectures. Professor Francis W. Kelsey, head of the Latin department of the University of Michigan, has been secured for the conference of foreign languages which will be held at the University April 21, the day following the High School Field Meet. Professor Kelsey will be remembered by University people through his lecture on "Pompeii and St. Pierre" delivered here Feb. I0. He is one of the two or three most widely known Classical teachers in this country and the author of many Latin text books. Professor Kelsey will give a popular lecture on Friday morning April 20 at 11 o'clock. On Saturday morning he will take a prominent part in the discussion of all Latin topics that come before the conference. Letters have been sent out to the language teachers throughout the state asking them to submit to the committee topics which they would like to have discussed under the leadership of Professor Kelsey at that time. Oscar Zimmerman and Hal Lebrecht spent Monday in Kansas City. Eustace Smith spent Tuesday in Topeka. "My friends always ask me what Tailor makes my Clothes? A Swell Young Fellow said to us the other day: Of course, it's hard to see the difference for the reason that there's no difference to see.
