ONLY UNDERCLASS GIRLS
FREQUENT THE GYMNASIUM
"The women of the University as a whole are not taking as much advantage of the Gymnasium as they should," says Dr. Alice Goetz, head of the gymnastics department in "K. U. has a gymnasium equipment far ahead of that of many of the universities, and it is not used by the women as much as it might be. The freshmen and sophomores are using the gymnastic apparatus but the juniors and seniors are deriving scarcely any enjoyment or benefit from it."
Beginning with the second semester the gymnasium will be open to any and all women students for general recreation and exercise from 3:30 to 5:30 o'clock, or later if desired. Doctor Goets will be glad to have you join him and senior takes part of the opportunity to take joy such things as volley ball and some systematic exercise, and to en-Russian folk dances.

STUDENTS SHOULD SLEEP
AT LEAST SEVEN HOJRS
Dr. Naismith Advises Students Practice Moderation in Work, Play and Rest
Students should have seven hours for study and time for social duties. True, a student may make up in the summer for the sleep he loses during the school year, but such means cannot always be applied to college work, as the candle burns for college work, it is apt to burn in life work.
"You have heard your classmate say, 'I worked until twelve last night.' It is not the difference in minds that cause such differences in time, but it is the difference in the training and care of the mind for work. There are two types one by intensity of work. The athlete trains for intensity. The same principle carried out in study would make the student more efficient. Honestly study for an average of nine hours a day and then quit. The moment a student studies over that average, there is something wrong, for the student is highly intelligent and initiative. It is time then, for a student to wake up or quit school. Perhaps he is carrying too much work, perhaps he is cramming and exhausting himself, or perhaps he does not
CLAYTON BROS. WILL FILE COUNTER SUIT
"University students need from 7 to nine hours sleep every day," says Dr. James Naisimith of the department of physical education. "If you want to be a football man to retire at ten o'clock, is it not necessary for the student likewise? Is football more important than studies? The question is not how much sleep is required to keep a student alive, but how much is necessary to maintain the higher degree in training. There is a better in condition for the next day's work than to exhaust yourself in preparation for it.
"The majority of students sleep too little and work too much. Perhaps they study too much, squander time carelessly, or are burdened with social cares. No one of us should be in difficulty in itself. A student should have time apply himself because he does not enjoy his work."
The University of Kansas signal corps is anxious to become the signal corps of the Kansas National Guard. Adjunct Adjustment Martin is looking for a place to organize, and Leitent Officer Hilliard Hilder will help deltet corps, is trying to show him that the college men are desirable.
If the college cadets are successful, they will receive the same equipment from the state that the men in the signal corps of the regular army receive. A complete equipment for interior work is already at hand.
Laundry Agents Claim They Were Not Working on a Commission Basis
OCAL SIGNAL CORPS
MAY JOIN STATE GUARD
Miss Gertrude Hazen, a graduate student from Baker University who holds a fellowship here in the home economics department, has become assistant instructor in that department, filling the vacancy made by Miss Kale Daeum who has taken the position of dietician housekeeper in University Hospital, Kansas City, Mo.
Ross and Gilbert Clayton, the University students against whom suit for the recovery of $1704.16, said to have been collected by them as agents for the Wilder laundry and never turned over to the laundry, have retained J. S. Amick as attorney, and will file a counter suit, showing their reasons for failure to turn over the money to the company. Under the law, they are allowed twenty days in which to do so.
When talked to this morning, the men explained that they were not acting as Wilder's agents, nor working on a commission for him, but were in effect running their business with Wilder, and having with his laundry to do all the work they might obtain for a certain price, they retaining the difference between this contract price and the amount collected from the customers as their profit. But Wilder, according to the instructions of the contract, provision of the contract, which provided for oneday service, first class work, and other things, which he has admittedly been unable to provide. Due to the laundry's failure to fulfil the provisions of the contract the man was required to do not believe it fair to shoulder all the loss incurred because of inefficient service by the laundry.
They have offered to settle with Wilder, each party to stand half the loss so incurred, but he refuses to settle on any basis except that he be paid the full amount which he says is due him. Since Wilder has been the laundry's inability to do the work according to the written contract, they refuse to shoulder the entire amount. The suit resulted.

"We are printing no extra copies on the Jayhawk," said Manager Hackney this morning, "and I am anxious to see you press the book goes to press. The advance sale thus far has been larger than ever before, and our rising price scale is largely responsible. Those who do not have the money at present begin up for copies at $5.00 each, but they must do so before March first."

No Players Ineligible
Lawrence. Kan.
Ames, Iowa, Jan. 7, 1915 University Daily Kansan,
With the possible exception of Folk, all men we expected to use this season are eligible. Thank somebody for expensive unfavorable advertising. The boys feel fine.
(Signed)
W. O. Hamilton
This is the confirmation by Manager W. O. Hamilton of the statement by Captain Stuffy Dumire that all the men were eligible for the Ames game. According to Dumire, Prof. E. W. Murray, of the Athletic Board, made a mistake in checking up the grades of the athletes. At first it seemed that three men were ineligible, but later it was learned that they were up in their work. Dumire carried the eligibility list of the team, and it showed but one ineligible, Hugo Wedell, who was declared out of the game some time ago because of professional playing.
The team is playing at Ames this fternoo.
DRUG LABS TEST THE
TOXICITY OF MUSCALE
The drug laboratories have made and tested for its toxicity, a concentrated extract from the Mexican pepper plant, and reported on the toxicity of the extract, that two mm of a weak solution put a frog into tetanus spasms almost immediately, and the action was totally identical with that of strychnine.
The Muscale buttons are often confused with the maguey cactus of the Southwest, from which the intoxicating drink "mescal" is made.
The German Verein has received a number of new song books for use in their weekly meetings.

HOSPITAL GIVES NO REPORT
McIntyre's Physician Busy When Asked About Patient
No report comes from the Jones Hospital today as to the condition of Emery J. McIntyre, the University student who suffered serious injuries in a coating accident on the night of December 30.
The attending physician at the hospital was too busy to talk when sought by the reporters but it is not supposed that the patient has improved any since yesterday. At that time, he was resting easy, but evidence of brain trouble was more pronounced than before.
REVEREND WOLFE TELLS
OF GREATNESS OF JESUS
"Jesus was great," said Rev. Henry E. Wolfe of the First Methodist Church at morning prayers this morning. "He was great not because he delivered a splendid essay, or because he was a great statesman. Jesus was great because of his manhood, is real individual, is himself so great as a great character. He is in the length of time of his endurance. We have no book of his endurance. We have no book on the rise or fall of Jesus.
"We have looked in the face of Jesus," concluded Reverend Wolfe, "and have seen that he has been the great strength of character, and that he was great. These characters in the life of Jesus always show themselves in the interior ofakes Jesus himself. He becomes great who has Jesus within him."
